First seen Apr 06, 2026 · Last updated May 30, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This early-phase study tests a new gene therapy for children whose neuroblastoma has returned or not responded to treatment. Researchers take the patient's own immune cells, add genes to help them recognize and attack the cancer, and give them back along with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug. The main goal is to find the safest dose and see how long the modified cells last in the body.
