Could licorice root make CAR-T cancer therapy safer and stronger?

NCT ID NCT07616271

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

Summary

This study tests whether a compound from licorice root, called diammonium glycyrrhizinate, can reduce the toxic side effects and improve the cancer-killing power of CAR-T cell therapy in people with large B-cell lymphoma. About 21 participants will receive either standard care or the licorice extract alongside their CAR-T treatment, and researchers will track side effects and remission rates. The goal is to make this advanced therapy both safer and more effective.
