Frequently Asked Questions
Has the solitary administration of CART-GFRa4 cells been accepted by the FDA?
"CART-GFRa4 cells have not yet been extensively tested, which is why they received a score of 1. This single dose study aims to elucidate the safety and efficacy of this potential treatment."
Are there any slots still open for participation in this clinical research?
"According to the records on clinicaltrials.gov, this clinical trial is still in search of participants. It was initially posted on August 19th 2021 and updated for the final time on September 16th 2022."
To what malady are CART-GFRa4 cells usually administered in a single dose?
"CART-GFRa4 cells administered in a single dose is usually given to patients with multiple sclerosis. This medical therapy also has the potential to help individuals who are suffering from mixed cell lymphoma, leukemia, myelocytic acute and retinoblastomas."
How many participants has this trial reached capacity for?
"Indeed, clinicaltrials.gov confirms that this medical experiment is currently enrolling participants. Initially published on August 19th 2021, the study requires 18 individuals from one site in order to be completed."
To what extent have prior trials assessed the efficacy of a solitary injection of CART-GFRa4 cells?
"Currently, 889 clinical trials have been initiated to study the efficacy of a single dose of CART-GFRa4 cells; 161 are in Phase 3. These investigations are taking place across 28446 sites with many based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania."
