First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study tested a treatment for advanced melanoma that uses a patient's own immune cells. Doctors removed immune cells from the tumor, grew more of them in the lab, and then gave them back to the patient along with high-dose IL-2. The main goal was to see if this approach was feasible and safe in 19 patients with metastatic melanoma.
