What the film says

Read the transcript

Immune therapies that work elsewhere have failed in glioblastoma, partly because so few T cells ever reach the tumor.

The idea: a molecule that grabs a T cell with one hand and a tumor cell with the other.

A third of glioblastomas carry EGFRvIII, a mutant receptor found only on tumor cells. At Duke, a bispecific T cell engager binds EGFRvIII on one arm and CD3 on T cells with the other, forcing the two together so the T cell kills. Because the molecule clears quickly, it is infused continuously for four days in each four-week cycle.

BRiTE is a first dose-finding study in adults whose tumors test positive, newly diagnosed or recurrent. The Duke BRiTE team runs it. Public record; not medical advice.
