A Study to Analyze Isolation, Activation and Expansion of Mutation Reactive T-cells

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to examine the ease and practicality of extracting central memory T-cells and the potential for their activation and ability to recognize tumor antigens and target lung cancer cells for destruction.  Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from the plasma will be extracted and sequenced to identify somatic mutations that were exposed to the T-cells.
