Multiple alternative splicing events in CD19 mRNA have been associated with resistance/relapse to CD19 CAR-T therapy in patients with B cell malignancies. Here, by combining patient data and a high-throughput mutagenesis screen, the authors identify single point mutations and RNA-binding proteins that can control CD19 splicing and be associated with CD19 CAR-T therapy resistance.
