A phase 1 clinical trial of B7-H3-targeting CAR-T cell therapy showed safety and durable tumour control in patients with treatment-resistant recurrent glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer with poor prognosis. The therapy demonstrated tumour reduction or stabilization for up to three years in over half the participants, including one complete remission.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Biotech.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You can now focus on developing or refining CAR-T therapies targeting solid tumours like glioblastoma where options are scarce. Clinical validation of B7-H3 as a target opens a new path beyond blood cancers for T cell immunotherapy.
