Recent Advances in CAR-T Therapy.

ABSTRACT

Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy is used to treat hematological malignancies which are refractory to standard therapy. It is a form of immunotherapy in which a patient's T cells are programmed to act against tumor cells. We discuss the process of manufacturing CAR-T cells, the common side effects of therapy, and the recent emerging risk of T-cell malignancies after treatment.
