Can supercharged immune cells stop leukemia from returning?
NCT ID NCT07237230
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether infusing special immune cells called γδ T cells can prevent relapse in people with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who have had a stem cell transplant. The trial will enroll 40 adults aged 18 to 65. The main goal is to see if the treatment improves relapse-free survival.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- γδ T cells (a type of immune cell)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new way to prevent leukemia from coming back after a stem cell transplant, potentially improving long-term survival.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early, small trial with only 40 participants. The treatment may not prevent relapse and could cause side effects like graft-versus-host disease or infections.
