|
| Investigators conducted a phase I trial of CAR T-EGFRvIII cells administered concomitantly with the anti-PD1 monoclonal antibody pembrolizumab in patients with newly diagnosed, EGFRvIII+ glioblastoma. [Nature Cancer] |
|
|
|
| To achieve eradication of solid tumors, the authors examined how many neoantigens need to be targeted with how many TCRs by which type of T cells. Unmanipulated, naturally expressed neoantigens were targeted with adoptively transferred TCR-engineered autologous T cells. [Clinical Cancer Research] |
|
|
|
| Scientists demonstrated, for the first time, that TNNT2-4Fpolycistronic-NIL gene therapy induced cardiomyocyte cell cycle re-entry in chronic ischemic heart failure and improved left ventricular function and that this salubrious effect was sustained for at least four months. [Cardiovascular Research] |
|
|
|
| Researchers performed a comprehensive flow cytometry analysis of 27 relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma patients treated with Idecabtagene vicleucel to assess the expansion capacity, persistence and effects on bystander cells of B cell maturation antigen-targeting CAR T cells. [Leukemia] |
|
|
|
| Investigators used RNA sequencing to assess whether the recently invented membrane-anchored and tumor-targeted IL-12-armed T cells, which bind cell-surface vimentin on tumor cells, could destroy cancer-associated fibroblasts to disrupt the extracellular matrix.

|
| The authors compared various nanoparticle coatings to enhance surface engineering for more effective nanomedicines. [ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces] |

|
|
| Scientists analyzed outcomes of 378 patients undergoing first llogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation between 2006–2017 for t-MN arising secondary to lymphoma treatment. [Bone Marrow Transplantation] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the potential of carbon-ion radiotherapy and isoeffective doses of X-ray radiotherapy to mediate tumor growth inhibition and survival in murine colon adenocarcinoma models in conjunction with neoantigen-specific liposome-formulated mRNA vaccines. [Radiation Oncology] |
|
|
|
|
| Compared to stem cells, stem cell-derived exosomes possess numerous advantages, such as non-immunogenicity, non-infusion toxicity, easy access, effortless preservation, and freedom from tumorigenic potential and ethical issues. [Signal Transduction And Targeted Therapy] |
|
|
|
| Investigators provide a forward-looking perspective on the field of RNA medical products and the potential long-term innovations and policy shifts enabled by this revolutionary and game-changing technological platform. [NPJ Genomic Medicine] |
