Engineered immune cells take on tough leukemia

NCT ID NCT03222674

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-phase trial tests a new type of cell therapy for people with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The treatment uses a patient's own immune cells, engineered to recognize six different targets on leukemia cells. The study aims to see if this approach is safe and can reduce cancer burden.
