Neuroblastoma is a cancer of young children. When high-risk disease comes back, few treatments hold it.

The idea: use a rarer kind of immune cell, one that naturally walks into these tumors, and arm it.

Nearly all neuroblastoma cells carry a molecule called GD2. Natural killer T cells, a small subset of white blood cells, home to neuroblastoma and kill the macrophages that help it grow. Here, a child's own NKT cells are expanded, given a receptor for GD2, and a gene for interleukin-15 to help them last, then infused after chemotherapy.

In the first twelve children, there were no dose-limiting toxicities, and three tumors shrank, one completely.

GINAKIT2, at Texas Children's, led by Gengwen Tian, continues escalating. Public record; not medical advice.
