Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a single-centre, non-randomised, open label, no control, prospective clinical trial. The study will include the following sequential phases: sign informed consent, γδT cells pre-culture, screening and registration to the trial, apheresis, γδT cells preparation, pre-treatment for lymphodepleting chemotherapy (selectable plan), treatment and follow-up.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures
