Summary

This early-phase trial tested a new type of cell therapy for people with advanced nasopharyngeal cancer linked to the Epstein-Barr virus. Nine patients received specially engineered immune cells (TCR-T cells) designed to recognize and attack the virus-infected cancer cells. The main goal was to find the safest dose, and the approach aims to improve treatment for solid tumors that are hard to control with standard therapies.
