Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies targeting CD19 and CD22 have been successful for treating B cell cancers, but CAR T cells targeting non-B cell cancers remain unsuccessful. We propose that rather than being strictly a side effect of therapy, the large number of CAR interactions with normal B cells may be a key contributor to clinical CAR T cell responses.
嵌合抗原受体 (CAR) T 细胞疗法靶向 CD19 和 CD22 已成功用于治疗 B 细胞癌症,但靶向非 B 细胞癌症的 CAR T 细胞仍不成功。我们提出,CAR 与正常 B 细胞的大量相互作用可能是临床 CAR T 细胞反应的关键因素,而不是严格意义上的治疗副作用。
