Journal ArticleDOI
Current concepts in the diagnosis and management of cytokine release syndrome
Daniel W. Lee,Rebecca Gardner,David L. Porter,Chrystal U. Louis,Nabil Ahmed,Michael C. Jensen,Stephan A. Grupp,Stephan A. Grupp,Crystal L. Mackall +8 more
TL;DR: A novel system to grade the severity of CRS in individual patients and a treatment algorithm for management of C RS based on severity is presented, to maximize the chance for therapeutic benefit from the immunotherapy while minimizing the risk for life threatening complications of the syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This first evaluation of the safety and efficacy of HER2-CAR T cells in patients with cancer shows the cells can persist for 6 weeks without evident toxicities, setting the stage for studies that combine Her2- CAR T cells with other immunomodulatory approaches to enhance their expansion and persistence.

TL;DR: Investigation of whether the systemic administration of HER2-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)–modified virus-specific T cells (VSTs) is safe and whether these cells have antiglioblastoma activity found them to be well tolerated.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: TanCAR T cells show therapeutic potential to improve glioblastoma control by coengaging HER2 and IL13Rα2 in an augmented, bivalent immune synapse that enhances T cell functionality and reduces antigen escape.
Journal ArticleDOI
TanCAR: A Novel Bispecific Chimeric Antigen Receptor for Cancer Immunotherapy
Zakaria Grada,Zakaria Grada,Meenakshi Hegde,Meenakshi Hegde,Tiara T. Byrd,Tiara T. Byrd,Donald R. Shaffer,Donald R. Shaffer,Alexia Ghazi,Alexia Ghazi,Vita S. Brawley,Vita S.

TL;DR: TanCAR as mentioned in this paper is a bispecific activation and targeting of T cells that can be used to increase the specificity of effector cells for malignant versus normal target cells, to offset antigen escape or to allow for targeting the tumor and its microenvironment.
