Official title
A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate IL13Rα2-Targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cells for Adult Patients With Leptomeningeal Glioblastoma, Ependymoma or Medulloblastoma
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This phase I trial investigates the side effects of brain tumor-specific immune cells (IL13Ralpha2-CAR T cells) in treating patients with leptomeningeal disease from glioblastoma, ependymoma, or medulloblastoma. Immune cells are part of the immune system and help the body fight infections and other diseases. Immune cells can be engineered to destroy brain tumor cells in the laboratory. IL13Ralpha2-CAR T cells is brain tumor specific and can enter and express its genes in immune cells. Giving IL13Ralpha2-CAR T cells may better recognize and destroy brain tumor cells in patients with leptomeningeal disease from glioblastoma, ependymoma or medulloblastoma.
