How CAR-T Therapy Works

This is the third module of a comprehensive slide library developed by a group of clinicians that have been working together to create ongoing educational initiatives about CAR T therapy since 2017, and was most recently updated in 2023. The library covers several topics including: why CAR-T therapy, how CAR-T fits into the world of immuno-oncology, patient management, and institutional considerations. You have the option to download the full library, containing several modules, or you can download individual modules, as needed.

This module covers the following topics:

• CAR-T cells: mechanism of action
• Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs)
• Advantages of CAR-T therapy
• Bispecific T-Cell Engager (BiTE) antibodies: the difference between CARs and BiTEs
