Experimental MegaLT injection targets dangerous low platelets in early trial

NCT ID NCT06534255

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new cell therapy called MegaLT for people with dangerously low platelet counts that don't improve after radiation, chemotherapy, or stem cell transplant. Only 10 participants will receive the injection at different doses to check safety and how the body handles it. The study is not yet recruiting and focuses on finding a safe dose, not proving it works.

Active substance
MegaLT injection (a cell therapy)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment for dangerously low platelet counts that don't respond to standard care.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, tiny Phase 1 trial with only 10 people. It primarily checks safety, not effectiveness. The treatment may not work or could cause side effects like graft-versus-host disease.
