Is Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell Therapy the Future of Autoimmunity Management?

Clinical trials with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in oncology have been promising. The spectrum of this novel therapy is being expanded to include autoimmunity. It ensures "targeted treatment," resulting in more selective outcomes, fewer toxic effects, and a permanent restoration of immune system imbalance. The preliminary results of preclinical and clinical studies support the application of CAR therapy in autoimmunity, especially in regulating adverse autoimmune responses. This novel therapy should be considered for the treatment of autoimmune diseases and further clinical studies should be conducted to study all aspects of this treatment modality.
