Improving quality control for CAR T cell therapies

Drug Discovery World

The discovery of CART cell therapy resulted from decades of research dedicated to understanding the immune system and its role in treating cancer. The immune system typically identifies foreign entities such as bacteria and viruses and activates lymphocytes such as T cells to destroy them with overwhelming force. 2018) 9(507).
