Scientists test One-Shot gene therapy to fight deadly brain cancer

NCT ID NCT03866109

Summary

This early-stage study is testing the safety of a new, one-time gene therapy called Temferon for patients with a specific, hard-to-treat form of glioblastoma brain cancer. Doctors take a patient's own blood stem cells, genetically modify them to produce a cancer-fighting protein, and then return them to the patient. The main goal is to see if this treatment is safe and what dose might work best for future studies.
