First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study tests a new treatment for children with neuroblastoma that has come back or not responded to standard therapy. Doctors take the child's own immune cells (called NKT cells), add a special receptor to help them find and kill cancer cells, and give them back along with a drug called Etanercept. The goal is to find the safest and most effective dose and see if the treatment can shrink tumors.
