Treatment for malignant primary brain tumors, including glioblastoma, remains a significant challenge despite advances in therapy. CAR-T cell immunotherapy represents a promising alternative to conventional treatments. This review discusses the landscape of clinical trials for CAR-T cell therapy targeting brain tumors, highlighting key advancements like novel target antigens and combinatorial strategies designed to address tumor heterogeneity and immunosuppression, with the goal of improving outcomes for patients with these aggressive cancers.
尽管治疗方法有所进步,但包括胶质母细胞瘤在内的恶性原发性脑肿瘤的治疗仍然是一项重大挑战。嵌合抗原受体(CAR)T细胞免疫疗法是传统治疗方法之外一种有前景的替代方案。本文综述了针对脑肿瘤的CAR-T细胞疗法的临床试验情况,重点介绍了一些关键进展,如新型靶抗原以及旨在解决肿瘤异质性和免疫抑制问题的联合策略,目的是改善这些侵袭性癌症患者的治疗效果。
