Understanding the Limitations of CAR-T Cell Therapies
CAR-T’s inability to induce durable remissions in many patients is a barrier to the success of these adoptive cell therapies—but solutions are under way.

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis is a rare, but potentially fatal, complication of immunotherapy, resulting from immune hyperactivation.
CAR-T–related neurotoxicity was found to be associated with the presence of cytokine release syndrome.
An investigation of a large performance improvement clinical database revealed that most individuals receiving CAR-T have diagnoses of ALL or large B-cell lymphoma.
This study provides evidence that birinapant could enhance sensitivity to TNF, effectively boosting the activity of CAR-T therapy in solid tumors.
