Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-Cell Therapy.
Surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy have been the foundation of cancer treatment. Advances in the field of immunology (a branch of science that studies all aspects of the immune system) have led to a greater understanding of the ways in which the body’s own defenses can be used for treatment of blood cancers. Cancer researchers are now studying how the immune system can help destroy ca...
متن کاملChimeric antigen receptor therapy for cancer.
Improved outcomes for patients with cancer hinge on the development of new targeted therapies with acceptable short-term and long-term toxicity. Progress in basic, preclinical, and clinical arenas spanning cellular immunology, synthetic biology, and cell-processing technologies has paved the way for clinical applications of chimeric antigen receptor-based therapies. This new form of targeted im...
متن کاملChimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T Cell Therapy for Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM)
Cancer immunotherapy has now become a recognized approach to treating cancers. In addition to checkpoint blockade, adoptive T cell transfer (ACT) using chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has shown impressive clinical outcomes in leukemias and is now being explored in solid tumors. CARs are engineered receptors, stably or transiently transduced into T cells, that aim to enhance T cell effector fu...
متن کاملRegional Delivery of Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-Cells for Cancer Therapy
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cells are T-cells with recombinant receptors targeted to tumor antigens. CAR-T cell therapy has emerged as a mode of immunotherapy and is now being extensively explored in hematologic cancer. In contrast, CAR-T cell use in solid tumors has been hampered by multiple obstacles. Several approaches have been taken to circumvent these obstacles, including the region...
متن کاملChimeric-antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy for solid tumors: challenges and opportunities
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered T cells (CAR-T cells) have been shown to have unprecedented efficacy in B cell malignancies, most notably in B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with up to a 90% complete remission rate using anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. However, CAR T-cell therapy for solid tumors currently is faced with numerous challenges such as physical barriers, the immunosuppr...
