Recruiting PHASE2 B-Cell Lymphoma

New treatment option for B-Cell Lymphoma

Official title Local Manufacture of CAR T-Cell Products for the Treatment of B-Cell Lymphoma and B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05281809

What this study is testing

What is Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-Cell Product (Autologous)?

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-Cell Product (Autologous) is an investigational medicine, given as an once-weekly infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for b-cell lymphoma.

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 trial aims to demonstrate the feasibility of this approach to reliably generate product and to safely administer the product to patients who have B-Cell Lymphoma and B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
