Description

Markus Friedrich Neurath, Bruce Eric Sands, and Florian Rieder reviewed a new class of treatments for inflammatory bowel diseases: therapies built from living immune cells or designed to remove harmful ones. Despite modern biologics and small-molecule drugs, many patients still cannot control gut inflammation. The review covers engineered CAR-T cells, two kinds of calming regulatory T cells, and antibodies such as rosnilimab that deplete selected immune cells.

These approaches aim to hit several disease pathways at once and to switch on the body's own inflammation-resolving routes, offering a chance at lasting remission. Cell therapies could reset a misdirected immune system rather than merely suppress it. The authors weigh early evidence and safety questions, asking whether this strategy could become the field's next major advance.
