Leaky and structurally abnormal blood vessels and increased pressure in the tumor interstitium reduce the infiltration of CAR-T cells in solid tumors, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Furthermore, high burden of tumor cells may cause reduction of infiltrating CAR-T cells and their functional exhaustion. In this study, various effector-to-target (E:T) ratio experiments are established to model the treatment using CAR-T cells in leukemia (high E:T ratio) and solid tumor (low E:T ratio).

Background: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T-cell therapy is a breakthrough in the field of cancer immunotherapy, wherein T cells are genetically modified to recognize and attack cancer cells. Delivery of the CAR gene is a critical step in this therapy and is usually achieved by transducing patient T cells with a lentiviral vector (LV). Because the LV is an essential component of CAR-T manufacturing, there is a need for simple bioassays that reflect the mechanism of action (MOA) of the LV and can measure LV potency with accuracy and specificity.

Craniocervical edema appears soon after chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy in some cases. This phenomenon is often observed right after systemic cytokine release syndrome (CRS), and it is called local CRS (L-CRS). In severe cases, L-CRS causes airway obstruction and asphyxia, but it is not yet well known among hematologists.

Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell (CAR-T) therapy is an effective therapy and promising frontier in the treatment of hematologic malignancies. However, this revolutionary treatment has led to new challenges for patients, caregivers, and the healthcare system. In this review article, we discuss the various difficulties patients face both in the acute and long-term period following CAR-T infusion.

In a first for solid cancers, cellular immunotherapy has entered standard of care in the treatment of patients with metastatic melanoma. The infusion of autologous tumor-infiltrating T lymphocytes (TIL) is capable of mediating durable tumor regression and is now Food and Drug Administration-approved for patients with disease refractory to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Since the advent of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells for patients with hematological malignancies, a growing network of centers capable of delivering effector T cell products to patients has developed.
