Standard addition

Transient T cell therapies.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has achieved clinical success in hematological malignancies, but its reliance on viral vectors and complex ex vivo manufacturing poses challenges related to safety, cost, and scalability. Afterwards, we summarize the ongoing clinical trials of transient CAR-T cell therapy for oncology and non-oncology indications.
