A new chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy has delivered promising results in treating patients with an aggressive blood cancer, in results from a clinical trial led by researchers at UCL and UCLH.
Results from the FELIX trial, sponsored by Autolus Therapeutics and published in the New England Journal of Medicine, show how a second-generation CAR-T cell therapy, known as obecabtagene autoleucel (obe-cel), has reduced immune toxicity and persists for longer in patients - overcoming two common limitations of earlier CAR-T cell therapies.
