Cancer Immunotherapy Trial Individualizes Therapy
Clinical trials at UC San Diego Health: https://health.ucsd.edu/clinicaltrials
Bernard Thurman has undergone traditional treatments, experimental therapies and surgeries to counter the cancer within him, but nothing has successfully eradicated the disease. As a last-ditch effort to halt growth, Thurman was referred to a personalized cancer therapy trial being developed at Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego Health. The clinical trial, a collaboration between UC San Diego and La Jolla Institute for Immunology researchers, employs an investigational cell therapy that uses a patient’s own immune cells — specifically tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) — to seek and destroy their own unique cancer cells.
