Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18-75 with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma after multiple lines of therapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with B-cell lymphoma that has not progressed after standard treatments or those outside the specified age range may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose of dualCAR-NK19/70, a novel cell therapy targeting CD19 and CD70, in patients with refractory or relapsed B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The study will monitor participants for tumor response and symptom relief while assessing the efficacy of the treatment. Additionally, it will explore cellular kinetics and biomarkers related to treatment response and toxicity. The trial includes both primary and secondary objectives to comprehensively assess the therapeutic potential of this innovative approach.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with difficult-to-treat B-cell lymphomas.
How similar studies have gone: While the specific approach of dualCAR-NK19/70 is novel, similar CAR NK cell therapies have shown promise in other studies.
