“…Over the past 20 years, many groups designed cellular immune therapeutics to restore and augment antifungal immunity, including adoptive T cell transfer, chimeric antigen receptor T cells, ex-vivo-pulsed dendritic cells (DCs), and azoleloaded neutrophils (7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12). However, despite a multitude of promising preclinical data, only few of these approaches eventually entered small-scale clinical studies, which is not surprising, as cellular immune therapeutics are costly, difficult to scale, time-and labor-intensive, logistically challenging, and subject to considerable regulatory hurdles (11,12).…”
