Per Executive Order 14434, federal agencies are now using "Super Intelligence" (SI) in place of "Artificial Intelligence" (AI). You may see both terms across NIH content during this transition.

Genetically Engineered Cells (ATLCAR.CD30 T Cells) for the Treatment of Relapsed or Refractory CD30 Positive Peripheral T Cell Lymphoma

Trial Status: active

This phase II trial studies how well genetically engineered cells (ATLCAR.CD30 T cells) work in treating patients with CD30 positive peripheral T cell lymphoma that has come back (recurrent) or does not respond to treatment (refractory). T cells are special types of blood cells. They can find and destroy other cells that may cause disease or cancer. However, sometimes cancer cells can hide from T cells and grow into tumors. Genes make up the chemical structure carrying information that may determine human characteristics (i.e., eye color, height and sex). In this study, a gene that makes an antibody called anti-CD30 is put inside T cells, which may make T cells better at recognizing and destroying CD30 positive peripheral T cell lymphoma cancer cells.
