Chimeric antigen receptor therapy has revolutionized hematology but is there ways we could further improve the immune cells that delivery the therapy? In this episode we talk to Professor Satu Mustjoki and Dr Olli Dufva and their recent paper ‘Integrated drug profiling and CRISPR screening identify essential pathways for CAR T-cell cytotoxicity’ (Link: https://ashpublications.org/blood/article/135/9/597/429647/Integrated-drug-profiling-and-CRISPR-screening) in Blood. We discuss how T cell responses are modified by drugs that could be used in combination with cellular therapies and how they can both enhance and inhibit CAR T cells functioning. We also get into the molecular mechanisms by which is thought to happen in a number of hematological cancer cells.
