What backs it

A single infusion of genetically reprogrammed immune cells (CD19-CAR T-cell therapy) sent severe rheumatoid arthritis into lasting, medication-free remission in several patients who had failed previous treatments, with inflammatory markers no longer detectable months after therapy and improved mobility.

Worth noting

The trial is small and early; broader clinical application will require further testing and regulatory approval.
