Introduction to Targeted Therapies: CAR T-cell Therapy 

T-cell Transfer Therapy is a special type of immunotherapy that takes a person’s own T-cells (a type of immune cell), adds specific antigens to the T-cells that can identify the cancer cells,  and puts them back into the person’s body. Cancer cells express unique antigens (signaling proteins). T-cells are programmed in the lab to find those signals and deliver a cancer stopping treatment right to the individual cancer cell. There are two main types of T-cell transfer therapy: tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and CAR T-cell Therapy. 

Targeted therapies are evolving rapidly and are increasingly more patient specific, as well as significantly more complex to manufacture and deliver. With any of these therapies, life science companies may need to thoughtfully consider strategies for addressing market access needs, patient journey issues, and the complexities of clinical care delivery protocols.
