CAR-T Cells Target Harmful B Cells in Lupus CAR-T cell technology, which uses genetic engineering to direct white blood cells to attack specific molecular targets, was originally proposed for treatment of HIV infection and hematological malignancies. In these cases B cell depletion is a feature, not a bug.

Evolution of such defence mechanisms can lead to multi-drug resistance, further disease progression, and cancer metastasis. Genetically modified T cells stimulated with IL2 are now administered as cell therapy for multiple cancer cell types with beneficial results 3,4. This continues to be the standard of care.
