Predicting CAR-T cell Immunotherapy Success through ImmunoPET

Clin Cancer Res. 2021 Feb 15;27(4):911-912. doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-20-4297. Epub 2020 Dec 16.

Abstract

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has generated unprecedented advances in the treatment of hematologic cancers, but readily translatable imaging approaches to visualize the in vivo dynamics of CAR-T cells are lacking. Noninvasive PET imaging is the ideal tool to monitor CAR-T cells.See related article by Simonetta et al., p. 1058.
