Scientists test 'Supercharged' immune cells to fight childhood cancer
NCT ID NCT00085930
Summary
This study tested a new treatment for children with high-risk neuroblastoma, a type of cancer. Researchers took a patient's own immune cells, modified them in a lab to better recognize and attack cancer cells, and then gave them back to the patient. The main goals were to check if this treatment was safe and to see if these modified cells could survive longer in the body to fight the cancer.
