A novel immunotherapy — the history of CAR T-cell therapy

Abstract: Robust research over the past 30 years has led recently to the first approval of genetically enhanced T lymphocytes expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CAR T-cells) as a tool to fight cancer. The backbone of the aforementioned therapy is to equip patients' T lymphocytes in a genetically modified receptor that can recognise the antigen present on the surface of a cancer cell with the accuracy of a specific antibody, and to ignite a cytotoxic reaction against it with the function of the T-lymphocyte receptor.… Show more

“…Although the first studies ended up with disappointment, today, the other genetically modified T cell is chimeric antigen receptors, CAR. Many studies are conducted around the world on CAR-T technology and it is believed that positive results will be achieved in the near future [29,30].…”

“…More recently (2021), idecabtagene vicleucel (Abecma ® , Bristol Myers Squibb) has received FDA approval and is currently awaiting EMA approval. The first approval of CAR-T cells as a tool to fight cancer was the result of near 30 years of robust research [ 11 ], since the first report of chimeric combination of receptors and antibodies was published in 1989 [ 12 ]. CAR19 T-cell therapy has been rapidly adopted for the treatment of several B-cell malignancies [ 13 ].…”
