Anyone heard of a new adenovirus trial?

I guess it's a new trial that they attach adenovirus(a cold virus) to t cells and inject them back in. The theory behind it is that the immune system will recoginize the virus and attack it and the virus is attached somehow to the cancer cells. I can't find much info on it. A friend told me her cousin is doing it in Omaha Ne, and im' from Neb raska and still can't find info

Hi Michelle-- this may be it:

It looks to be for patients that have not already had chemo.

I dont think this is it. This is a vaccine, the trial i'm looking for is an infusin of your own cells back after being treated with the cold virus
