Description

Amwas and three co-authors wrote a review in twenty twenty-four on adoptive T cell therapy for solid tumors. In these treatments, a patient's own immune cells are collected, changed or grown in a lab, and given back to fight cancer. The authors focus on why solid tumors, such as brain tumors, resist such care.

The review compares three main types: tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte therapy, engineered receptor therapy, and CAR T cell therapy. Each type has strengths, such as hitting many tumor targets or sensing very low levels of a target. The authors then survey ways to help cells reach tumors, stay active, and work inside the harsh space around a tumor.
