E-SYNC T Cells for Glioblastoma

This study is testing the safety and side effects of E-SYNC T Cells, a type of CAR T-cell therapy, in people with glioblastoma (a type of brain cancer) that has an EGFRvIII gene mutation. CAR T-cell therapy involves taking your own immune cells (T cells), modifying them in the lab to better fight cancer, and then giving them back to you. Before receiving E-SYNC T Cells, you will have chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine. The study aims to see how well these modified T cells work against the cancer. We are looking for 20 participants, and the current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is a dose-escalation study, meaning different groups will receive different doses of E-SYNC T Cells. It involves up to 20 participants with glioblastoma.
What's involved
You would undergo leukapheresis (a procedure to collect your blood cells) and potentially surgical removal of tumor tissue. You will also receive intravenous (IV) infusions of E-SYNC T Cells, cyclophosphamide, and fludarabine.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be monitored for treatment-emergent adverse events for up to 96 weeks after treatment.
