Immune cells engineered to fight lymphoma enter human testing

NCT ID NCT07073833

First seen Jul 02, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tests a new treatment called IBR900, made from natural killer (NK) cells, for people with a type of blood cancer called CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma that has come back or not responded to prior therapy. The study has two parts: first, finding the safest dose of IBR900 alone, then testing it combined with a standard antibody drug (rituximab). The goal is to see if this cell therapy is safe and shows signs of shrinking tumors.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

IBR900 cell injection (NK cells) and rituximab (CD20 antibody)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could offer a new treatment option for patients with hard-to-treat B-cell lymphoma that has not responded to standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 1 trial with only 40 participants, so safety and dosing are still being determined. The treatment may not work for everyone and could cause side effects.
