In a statement outlining its investigation, the FDA said it received reports of the T-cell malignancies from clinical trials and post-marketing safety monitoring. The vectors can potentially cause cancer by inserting genetic material into a patient’s genome, particularly near cancer-related DNA sequences or suppressors​​​​.

Next, the advent of antibody treatments in 1997 created the first targeted cancer therapy 2. Finally, in 2017, after years of improving T cell engineering techniques, the first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy received FDA approval. CAR T cells are T cells that have been trained to attack tumours.
