CAR T-cell therapy for recurrent brain tumors
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy called CAR T-cells that target a protein called GARP on your tumor cells. It is for people whose high-grade glioma (a fast-growing brain tumor) has come back after previous treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have a recurrent high-grade glioma (grade III or IV) or a lower-grade tumor that now looks high-grade on scans
- Your tumor is in one area (unifocal) in the top part of the brain, not in sensitive spots like the brainstem or motor cortex
- If you take steroids (like dexamethasone), your daily dose is 4 mg or less, and you have not increased it recently
- You have adequate kidney and liver function and good blood counts
- You are able to undergo surgery to remove most of the tumor

This trial tests genetically engineered immune cells (CAR T cells) injected directly into the brain to treat recurring or worsening high-grade gliomas. The cells are designed to recognize and attack tumor cells that have specific markers (EGFR and IL13Rα2).
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR-T cells) made from donor cells, designed to target tumors with a specific marker called CD70. It is for people whose brain glioma has come back or hasn't responded to standard treatments.
This early-phase study tests a type of immune-cell treatment (CAR T cells) aimed at a target called B7-H3 in people with glioblastoma or related grade 4 brain tumors that have come back. It’s meant to see if the treatment can shrink the tumor or control the disease and to learn how safe it is.
This trial tests a treatment made from your own immune cells, called CAR T cells, which are engineered to find and attack brain tumor cells that have a marker called GPC3. It is for patients whose glioblastoma has come back and who are already scheduled to have another surgery to remove the tumor.
This early-phase trial studies a personalized immune-cell treatment (CAR-T) for glioblastoma that has come back. It aims to shrink or control the regrowing brain tumor by using your own immune cells after processing them in a lab.
This trial tests a new treatment called TX103 CAR-T cells for people with a grade 4 glioma (like glioblastoma) that has come back or gotten worse after standard treatment. The therapy uses your own immune cells that are specially trained to attack a marker called B7-H3 found on tumor cells.
