ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07164469

This clinical trial is exploring a new treatment using CD70.CAR NK cells to help control lymphomas that are hard to treat or have returned after initial treatment. The study focuses on patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) and Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL).

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The main goal of this study is to see if CD70.CAR NK cell therapy can effectively treat patients with lymphomas that are either difficult to treat from the start or have come back soon after initial treatment. Researchers will measure success by looking at how many patients remain free of cancer events for two years. They will also study how well the treatment works, its safety, and how long the modified cells stay in the body.

Description

This study is testing a new therapy using CD70.CAR NK cells, which are specially modified cells designed to target and attack cancer cells in patients with certain types of lymphoma. The primary aim is to see if this treatment can help patients stay free of cancer events for two years. Researchers will also look at how well the treatment works overall, its safety, and how long the modified cells remain in the body. Additionally, they will conduct detailed studies to understand how the body responds to the treatment and what factors might affect its success.
