Chimeric Antigen Receptor T (CAR-T) Cell Therapy is a technique for engineering T cells, which are part of the immune system, to combat cancer.

  • White blood cells known as T cells combat invading invaders.
  • T cells from patients' blood are extracted and altered by inserting a gene for a synthetic receptor (called CAR).

  • CAR-T cells are then ....
