Computational model for tumor response to adoptive cell transfer therapy [PDF]
One of the barriers to the development of effective adoptive cell transfer therapies (ACT), specifically for genetically engineered T-cell receptors (TCRs), and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells, is target antigen heterogeneity. It is thought that intratumor heterogeneity is one of the leading determinants of therapeutic resistance and treatment ...
