New treatment option for Neuroblastoma
Official title 4SCAR-T Therapy Targeting GD2, PSMA and CD276 for Treating Neuroblastoma
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04637503
What this study is testing
What is GD2, PSMA and CD276 CAR-T cells?
GD2, PSMA and CD276 CAR-T cells is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for neuroblastoma.
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
- The purpose of this clinical trial is to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of multiple 4SCAR-T cell therapy which targets GD2, PSMA and CD276 surface antigens in patients with relapsed and refractory neuroblastoma (NB). Another goal of the study is to understand the function of the multi-CAR-T cells and their persistency in the patients.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
