Scientists reprogram Patients' own cells to hunt cancer
NCT ID NCT02989064
Summary
This early-stage study tested whether a patient's own immune cells could be genetically modified in a lab to recognize and attack cancer cells, then safely given back to the patient. It involved 10 adults with specific types of bladder, skin (melanoma), or head and neck cancers who had a particular genetic marker. The main goal was to find a safe dose and understand the side effects of this personalized cell therapy.
