Overview

The aim of this clinical trial is to assess the feasibility, safety and efficacy of CAR T cells immunotherapy in patients who have sarcoma that is relapsed or late staged. Another goal of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the therapy that combines CAR T cells and IgT cells to treat sarcoma.

Description

Patients with late staged and/or recurrent sarcoma have poor prognosis despite complex multimodal therapy. Therefore, novel curative approaches are needed.This study will combine two different ways to fight sarcoma: antibodies and CAR-T cells. Several immune checkpoint antibodies have been examined on various tumors with good outcomes. Sarcoma is known to express increased levels of surface antigens that can be targeted by CAR-T cells. Thus, in this study, the 4SCAR-IgT cells targeting sarcoma surface antigens will be infused in dose escalation cohorts.This study will assess the feasibility, safety, efficacy and side effects of CAR T cells immunotherapy in patients who have sarcoma that is relapsed or late staged.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
