Off-the-Shelf immune cells take on Hard-to-Treat lymphomas
NCT ID NCT04848064
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-phase trial is testing a combination of donor natural killer (NK) cells and the drug mogamulizumab in 12 patients with relapsed or refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma or adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. The NK cells are grown in the lab and given 'off the shelf' to boost the immune system's ability to attack cancer, while mogamulizumab helps flag cancer cells for destruction. The main goal is to find the safest dose and see if the combination can shrink tumors.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- natural killer (NK) cells from healthy donors, combined with mogamulizumab (a monoclonal antibody)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for patients with T-cell lymphomas that have stopped responding to standard therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early phase I trial with only 12 participants, so it is primarily testing safety and dosing. The combination may not work or could cause serious side effects.
