Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06047977RecruitingPhase 1
Immune cell therapy for high-risk solid tumors in children and young adults
This trial uses a patient's own tumor-fighting immune cells (TILs) to treat high-risk solid tumors outside the brain in children and young adults. It has two parts: first, a tumor sample is collected during surgery, and then the immune cells are grown in a lab and given back to the patient to attack the cancer.
St. Petersburg, FloridaAges 1–21 - NCT05754684RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy with donor NK cells for relapsed neuroblastoma
This trial studies a “quadruple immunotherapy” treatment using donor immune cells (NK cells) to fight neuroblastoma that has come back or did not respond to prior therapy. It may help by boosting the body’s immune attack, but only certain children meet the safety and donor requirements.
Hong KongAges Up to 18 years - NCT06641648RecruitingPhase 1
Donor NK cells with low-dose IL-2 for AML relapse after stem cell transplant
This trial tests a new treatment for patients whose acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has come back after a stem cell transplant. It uses immune cells from the original donor, combined with a low dose of a protein called IL-2, to try to fight the leukemia without causing severe side effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07192900RecruitingPhase 1
Fast TILs for metastatic cancer with pleural disease
This trial tests a new therapy using your own immune cells (called TILs) to treat cancer that has spread to the lining of the lungs. The goal is to see if these cells can shrink tumors and help you feel better.
