VHH-based CAR-T cells targeting Claudin 18.2 show high efficacy in pancreatic cancer models [PDF]
BackgroundPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the deadliest cancers, with a 5-year survival rate below 10%, largely due to late-stage diagnosis and the limited effectiveness of conventional therapies such as surgery, chemotherapy, and ...
