New treatment option for Philadelphia-Negative ALL
Official title A Study of 19-28z/IL-18 in People With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06287528
What this study is testing
What is 19-28z/IL-18 CAR T cells?
19-28z/IL-18 CAR T cells is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for philadelphia-negative all.
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
- Participants will have a sample of their white blood cells, called T cells, collected using a procedure called leukapheresis. The collected T cells will be sent to a laboratory to be changed (modified) to become 19-28z/IL-18, the CAR T-cell therapy that participants will receive during the study.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
