Description

Samuel Obiosa Onyekweli and coauthors review engineering of CAR-T cells for solid tumors in a 2026 article spanning design and clinical translation. Chimeric antigen receptor therapy excels in blood cancers, yet pooled response rates in solid tumors sit near 9 percent because antigens vary, dense stroma blocks entry, and suppressive surroundings exhaust T cells. Developments in 2024 and 2025 mark a turning point in their account.

GD2-targeted cells delivered into brain ventricles produced durable complete responses in diffuse midline glioma, one lasting beyond 30 months, and CLDN18.2-targeted therapy beat physician's choice in advanced gastric cancer in randomized testing. Integrated design aims to repeat such wins more broadly.
