Abstract:Background: We have developed a novel gene therapy platform based on fusogen biology that allows targeted delivery of CAR transgenes to “resting” T cells through systemic administration of a CD8-targeted paramyxovirus-based viral vector (VV). Therapies utilizing autologous CAR T cells have demonstrated success using the murine CD19-specific scFv, FMC63. These murine sequences have the potential to incite T cell and antibody responses against the CAR, which may play a role in CAR T cell elimination. This scenar… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
