Mashup Score: 1CAR T-cell therapy brings sustained, drug-free remission in three autoimmune diseases - 2 month(s) ago
Single injections of CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy brought long-lasting remission to 15 patients with three different autoimmune diseases, according to data published in The New England Journal of Medicine.“Although antibody-based B-cell targeting certainly improved treatment of autoimmune disease, achieving long-lasting drug-free remission has proven elusive,” Fabian

Mashup Score: 5
Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are characterized by loss of immune tolerance, high chronicity, with substantial morbidity and mortality, despite conventional immunosuppression (IS) or targeted disease modifying therapies (DMTs), which usually require repeated administration. Recently, novel cellular therapies (CT), including mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC), Chimeric Antigen Receptors T cells (CART) and regulatory T cells (Tregs), have been successfully adopted in ADs. An international expert panel of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation and the International Society for the Cell and Gene Therapy, reviewed all available evidence, based on the current literature and expert practices, on use of MSC, CART and Tregs, in AD patients with rheumatological, neurological, and gastroenterological indications.
