CAR-T Cell Therapy: Mechanism, Management, and Mitigation of Inflammatory Toxicities

Engineered T cell therapies such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) expressing T cells (CAR-T cells) have great potential to treat many human diseases; however, inflammatory toxicities associated with these therapies present safety risks and can greatly limit its widespread use. This article briefly...
