革新肿瘤治疗：CAR-T 细胞疗法的深入探索

Cancer is a leading cause of fatality worldwide. Due to the heterogeneity of cancer cells the effectiveness of various conventional cancer treatment techniques is constrained.

Thus, researchers are diligently investigating therapeutic approaches like immunotherapy for effective tumor managements. Immunotherapy harnesses the inherent potential of patient's immune system to achieve desired outcomes. Within the realm of immunotherapy, CAR-T (Chimeric Antigen Receptor T) cells, emerges as a revolutionary innovation for cancer therapy. The process of CAR-T cell therapy entails extracting the patient's T cells, altering them with customized receptors designed to specifically recognize and eradicate the tumor cells, and then reinfusing the altered cells into the patient's body.

Although there has been significant progress with CAR-T cell therapy in certain cases of specific B-cell leukemia and lymphoma, its effectiveness is hindered in hematological and solid tumors due to the challenges such as severe toxicities, restricted tumor infiltration, cytokine release syndrome and antigen escape.

Overcoming these obstacles requires innovative approaches to design more effective CAR-T cells, which require a competent and diverse team to develop and implement. This comprehensive review addresses numerous therapeutic issues and provides a strategic solution while providing a deep understanding of the structural intricacies and production processes of CAR-T cells.

In addition, this review explores the practical aspects of CAR-T cell therapy in clinical settings.
