Blood samples may reveal how to boost Cancer-Fighting immune cells
NCT ID NCT07137312
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study collects blood or apheresis samples from 24 people with solid tumors and healthy volunteers. Researchers will analyze immune cells to see how they respond to a neoantigen vaccine, which is designed to help the immune system recognize cancer. The goal is to learn how to grow and isolate powerful T cells that can fight tumors. This is a research study, not a treatment trial.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this research could help scientists develop better cancer vaccines that train the immune system to fight tumors more effectively.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study focused on lab analysis, not treatment. It may not lead to direct benefits for participants or result in a working therapy.

Inclusion Criteria: * Histologically confirmed current or previous solid malignancy or healthy individuals * Willing to provide mandatory research blood draw or apheresis per protocol * Provide written informed consent * The following laboratory values obtained ≤ 28 days prior to registration * Hemoglobin ≥10.0 g/dl * Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500/mm\^3 * Platelet count ≥100,000/mm\^3 Exclusion Criteria: * Any of the following prior therapies: * IV antibiotic ≤2 weeks prior to apheresis * Major Surgery ≤4 weeks prior to registration * Received a live vaccine ≤30 days prior to registration * Active hematologic malignancies ≤ 3 years prior to registration * Immunocompromised patients and patients known to be HIV positive and currently receiving antiretroviral therapy * History of active tuberculosis (TB), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), active hepatitis B (e.g., HBsAg reactive), and/or active hepatitis C infection \[e.g., Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) ribonucleic acid (RNA) qualitative is detected) * Known history of active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the ≤14 days (i.e., with the use of disease-modifying agents, corticosteroids \>10 mg daily prednisone equivalent, or other immunosuppressive drugs) prior to registration. * NOTE: Replacement therapy (e.g., thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroid replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency) is not considered a form of systemic treatment. Patients with vitiligo, Graves' disease, or psoriasis not requiring systemic treatment within the past 30 days are not excluded. Patients with Celiac disease controlled with diet modification are not excluded. * Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease which, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens. * Pregnancy
