This study uses single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze EDA-CAR-T cell dynamics in the tumor microenvironment, revealing temporal reprogramming toward dysfunction and identifying immunosuppressive pathways that impair therapeutic efficacy in solid tumors.

This paper develops doxycycline-inducible IL-18 CAR-T cells (iTRUCK19.18) that enhance antitumor activity while controlling IL-18 release through dual mechanisms.

This paper develops lentiviral vectors with TCR-like expression patterns to generate CAR-T cells with reduced tonic signaling and improved therapeutic profiles.
