New treatment option for Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Cell Neoplasm
Official title Donor T Cell Therapy in Treating Immunocompromised Patients With Adenovirus-Related Disease
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03425526
What this study is testing
What is Allogeneic Adenovirus-specific Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes?
Allogeneic Adenovirus-specific Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for hematopoietic and lymphoid cell neoplasm.
Also referred to as Allogeneic Adenovirus-specific CTLs.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This phase I trial studies the side effects of allogeneic adenovirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (donor T cell therapy) and to see how well they work in treating patients with a weakened immune system (immunocompromised) and adenovirus-related disease. Allogeneic adenovirus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes are made from donated blood cells grown in the laboratory and are designed to kill viruses that can cause infections in immunocompromised patients with adenovirus-related disease.
