CAR-X cell engineering
摘要
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has revolutionized the treatment of haematological malignancies and continues to transform the treatment of various other diseases. Nonetheless, current CAR-T cell therapy has limitations that hinder its therapeutic efficacy for expanded applications, some of which might be attributed to intrinsic T cell features. Using immune cells beyond conventional T cells has therefore emerged as a promising strategy to compensate for such limitations. In this Review, we discuss different CAR-engineered immune cells for therapeutic applications by highlighting how unique immune attributes, along with cell-specific manufacturing strategies and CAR designs, address challenges faced by conventional CAR-T cell therapy.
