So-called CAR-T therapy already is used to fight blood-related cancers like leukaemia
WASHINGTON — A new strategy to fight an extremely aggressive type of brain tumour showed promise in a pair of experiments with a handful of patients.
but researchers have struggled to make it work for solid tumours. Now separate teams at Massachusetts General Hospital and the University of Pennsylvania are developing next-generation CAR-T versions designed to get past some of glioblastoma’s defences. Glioblastoma, the brain cancer that killed President Joe Biden’s son Beau Biden and long-time Arizona Sen John McCain, is fast-growing and hard to treat. Patients usually live 12 to 18 months after diagnosis. Despite decades of research, there are few options when it returns after surgery and radiation.
Mass General and Penn each developed two-pronged approaches and tried them in patients whose tumours returned after standard treatment.
