Experimental CAR-T therapy takes on deadly brain tumors
NCT ID NCT07318818
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase trial tests a new treatment called P134 cells for people with recurrent glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer that has come back. P134 cells are immune cells engineered to target two proteins (CD44 and CD133) found on tumor cells. The study will enroll 26 adults to find the safest dose and check for side effects, with the goal of seeing whether this approach can control the disease.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- P134 cells (a type of CAR-T cell therapy that targets CD44 and CD133 proteins on tumor cells)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for recurrent glioblastoma, a brain cancer with few effective therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small trial (26 people) focused on safety and dosing. CAR-T cell therapy can cause serious side effects like brain swelling or nerve damage, and it may not shrink tumors.
