Abstract

Clinical trials are underway infusing T cells genetically modified to be specific for B-cell malignancies using a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)to redirect specificity for CD19. However, issues remain about whether the CAR can provide a fully competent application signal and whether other lymphocytes with lytic capacity can target CD19+ tumors.
