Genetic Modification of T Cells
Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 2011 Adoptively transferred T cells have shown activity in treating viral infections after hemopoietic transplantation and anti-tumor activity against some malignancies such as melanoma and lymphoma. Current research focuses on defining the optimum type of cell for transfer to improve persistence and genetically modifying infused T cells to augment function,
