CAR T Revolutionized How We Treat Blood Cancers. Now It's Closing In on Solid Tumors.

Reported bySingularity Hub ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

Two independent research teams identified GPNMB as a promising target for CAR T cell therapy against solid tumors like glioblastoma and soft tissue cancers; CAR T cells engineered to recognize GPNMB destroyed tumors in patient tissues and mouse models, and in one early clinical trial stabilized disease for three months without serious side effects.

Worth noting

Early-stage research; solid tumor CAR T therapy remains in development, and long-term efficacy and safety profiles are not yet established.
