Summary

This trial will test if it is possible to safely give a new treatment called B7-H3CART through an IV to children and young adults with certain types of solid tumors that have not responded to

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults with solid tumors like sarcoma, neuroblastoma, or osteosarcoma that have come back or didn't respond to previous treatments. The tumors must express a target called B7-H3. Specific eligibility details are not provided but would typically include health status and prior therapies.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the safety of a new therapy where patients receive an IV dose of genetically engineered T cells (B7-H3CART) designed to attack cancer cells expressing B7-H3. It follows a '3+3' design which means small groups are given increasing doses to find the safest amount.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't listed but may include immune reactions as the body's normal tissues can be affected by CAR T-cell therapies, flu-like symptoms, fatigue, fever, and risk of infection due to altered immune response.
