Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Myeloid Malignancies

New treatment option for Myeloid Malignancies

Official title A Phase I/II Study of CAR.70-Engineered IL15-Transduced Cord Blood-Derived NK Cells With TGF-beta Receptor 2 (TGFBR2) Knock Out in Conjunction With Lymphodepleting Chemotherapy for the Management of Relapsed/Refractory Myeloid Malignancies

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06930651

What this study is testing

What is Dexamethasone?

Dexamethasone is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for myeloid malignancies.

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 goal of this clinical research study is to find the recommended safe dose of TGFBR2 KO CAR27/IL-15 NK cells that can be given to patients with relapsed/refractory disease. The safety and effectiveness of this treatment will also be studied.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
