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 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...
متن کاملAdvancing Chimeric Antigen Receptor-Engineered T-Cell Immunotherapy Using Genome Editing Technologies: Challenges and Future Prospects
Chimeric antigen receptor engineered-T (CAR-T) cells also named as living drugs, have been recently known as a breakthrough technology and were applied as an adoptive immunotherapy against different types of cancer. They also attracted widespread interest because of the success of B-cell malignancy therapy achieved by anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. Current genetic toolbox enabled the synthesis of CARs ...
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 کاملPD-1 blockade modulates chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells: refueling the CAR.
Antibodiesblocking theprogrammeddeath1 receptor (PD-1) onTcells produce tumor regression in multiple cancers by disrupting the PD-L1/ PD-1 (programmed death-ligand 1/programmed cell death protein 1) immune inhibitory axis. This approach to cancer immunotherapy would seem to be an ideal partner for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)– modified T-cell therapies but is, as yet, untested in this settin...
