First seen Mar 16, 2026 · Last updated Apr 25, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new treatment called KIND T cells for people with a rare, aggressive brain tumor (diffuse midline glioma with H3.3K27M mutation). The treatment involves taking a patient's own immune cells, modifying them in a lab to recognize the tumor, and giving them back after a short course of chemotherapy. The main goals are to check safety and find the best dose in up to 12 participants aged 2 to 25.
