New immune cell therapy takes on tough lymphoma

NCT ID NCT06079164

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase trial is testing a new treatment called KITE-197 for people with large B-cell lymphoma that has come back or not responded to other treatments. KITE-197 is made from a patient's own immune cells, which are modified in a lab to better attack cancer cells. The study will first check safety and dosing in a small group, then look at how well the recommended dose works in another group.
