First Patient in Arizona Treated with New Immune-Cell Therapy at HonorHealth Research Institute

[HonorHealth Research Institute (EurekAlert)] A patient with synovial sarcoma, a soft-tissue cancer that usually occurs in the large joints of the arms and legs, is the first in Arizona treated with a new immune-cell-therapy known as TECELRA at the HonorHealth Research Institute.

IL-36γ Armored CAR T Cells Reprogram Neutrophils to Induce Endogenous Antitumor Immunity

[Cancer Cell] Researchers reported that IL-36γ armored CAR T cells eradicate primary solid tumors and enable rejection of rechallenged antigen-negative tumors.

Cis- and Trans-Binding Chimeric Costimulatory Receptors Enhance T-Cell Fitness and Tumor Control

[Cellular & Molecular Immunology] Investigators characterized the molecular requirements for a platform enabling costimulation in engineered T cells on the basis of dual targeting of a single antigen via a TCR and a chimeric costimulatory receptor.

ZAP327 Signaling Domain-Driven Chimeric Antigen Receptor Generates Robust and Long-Term Antitumor Immunity in Mouse Models

[Science Translational Medicine] Scientists reported the construction of CARs with a ZAP70-derived signaling domain (ZAP327) that enhances therapeutic antitumor activity with increasing in vivo T cell persistence.

Personalized CRISPR Knock-in Cytokine Gene Therapy to Remodel the Tumor Microenvironment and Enhance CAR T Cell Therapy in Solid Tumors

[Nature Communications] The authors presented a gene-therapeutic strategy that enables localized remodelling of the tumor microenvironment via tumor-intrinsic cytokine expression.

mRNA Vaccine Developed for Sequential Selective Organ-to-Cell Targeting of Glioma

[Nature Communications] Researchers synthesized a library of meta/ortho/para-ionizable lipidoids and prepare three-component lipid nanoparticles without PEG-lipids.

Gene-Corrected Regulatory T Cell Therapy for IL2RA Deficiency

[Molecular Therapy] Investigators introduced a novel therapeutic approach involving ex-vivo generation of gene-corrected autologous regulatory T cells.

Sodium Valproate Drives Propionylation-Mediated Epigenetic Reprogramming to Enhance Mesothelin CAR-T Cell Therapy in Solid Tumors

[Molecular Therapy] Scientists combined CAR-T therapy with sodium valproate (VPA), a clinically approved histone deacetylase inhibitor. VPA-treated CAR-T cells (CAR-T+VPA) showed improved cytotoxicity, reduced exhaustion, and enhanced tumor infiltration.

Dual-Targeted Ping-Pong CAR T Cells: Leveraging Peripheral Expansion to Improve Solid Tumor Immunotherapy

[Proceedings of The National Academy of Sciences of The United States of America] Researchers engineered dual-targeted and dual-costimulated CAR T cells that recognize CD19+ B cells, thereby promoting peripheral expansion and increasing the pool of solid tumor-directed CAR T cells available for tumor infiltration without the need for lymphodepletion.

Enhanced Anti-Liver Tumor Efficacy of Chimeric Antigen Receptor-T Cells via SATB1 Modulation

[Cell Death & Disease] Scientists identified SATB1—a genome organizer regulating chromatin architecture—as a key suppressor of CAR-T cell exhaustion.

Redefining Multiple Sclerosis with CAR-T Cell Therapy

[Molecular Therapy] The authors summarize recent advances in applying CAR-T cell therapy to multiple sclerosis, outline key lessons learned from oncology and other autoimmune diseases, and discuss future directions for establishing CAR-T cells as a transformative approach in neuroimmunology.

FDA Approves Marginal Zone Lymphoma CAR T Cell Treatment

[Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center] The US FDA has approved a new therapy for marginal zone lymphoma: lisocabtagene maraleucel. The approval is based on results from a Phase II clinical trial led by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center hematologist-oncologist Dr. Lia Palomba.
