Review Title: How do we meet the challenge of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy for solid tumors?
Abstract: ABSTRACT: Immune checkpoint inhibition has vastly improved the treatment of solid tumors, but most patients do not experience durable clinical benefit, so novel immunotherapeutic approaches are needed. Autologous T cells genetically engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) have led to unprecedented clinical success in hematologic malignancies, and increasing efforts are actively being pursued to translate these benefits to the solid tumor arena. However, solid tumors present unique challenges for CAR T-cell development. In this review, we examine the potential barriers to progress and present emerging approaches to overcome these challenges with CAR therapy in solid tumors.
