Recruiting PHASE1 Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer

New treatment option for Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer

Official title TCR-T Cell Immunotherapy of Lung Cancer and Other Solid Tumors

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03778814

What this study is testing

What is TCR-T cells?

TCR-T cells is an investigational medicine, given as an injectable medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for nonsmall cell lung cancer.

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
Tumor organoids and TILs (and/or peripheral T cells) cultures will be established from fresh tissure of lung cancer and other solid tumors. Coculture will be utilized to screen tumor-responsive T cells which are further selected for monoclonal expansion and TCR cloning for engineered reconstitution of TCR-T cells.
