Recent progress indicates a considerably improved mechanistic understanding of CAR T cell biology and delivers important insights into why some patients achieve durable remissions and others do not. In addition, although most success has been achieved in the context of CAR T cells targeted to B cell tumor antigens, namely CD19 and BCMA, we are seeing promising clinical trial outcomes for solid tumor malignancies.
