Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC)

New treatment option for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC)

Official title Dual-Targeting CAR-NK Cells Targeting Mesothelin (MSLN) and MUC1 in Advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07480928

What this study is testing

What is EB-DNK101 dual-targeting CAR-NK cells (MSLN + MUC1)?

EB-DNK101 dual-targeting CAR-NK cells (MSLN + MUC1) is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (pdac).

Also referred to as MSLN/MUC1 Dual-CAR NK, Dual-target CAR-NK (MSLN/MUC1).

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 example study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of investigational, dual-targeting chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cell products for patients with advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Participants are assigned to one of two biomarker-defined cohorts based on tumor antigen expression: (A) Mesothelin (MSLN) and/or MUC1, or (B) Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2) and/or MUC1.
