Spotlighting Lupus Awareness Month: CAR-T Technology Creates New Avenues for Treatment of a Devastating Disease

WCG Clinical

Recent headlines have highlighted the potential for Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-based therapies to provide clinical benefits to persons affected by lupus. An expected and well-known side effect of these B cell-targeted therapies is “B cell aplasia”— i.e. partial or complete depletion of B cells from circulation and immune organs.

Delivering on the promise of gene editing

Drug Discovery World

These platforms all induce double strand cuts in the chromosomal DNA that can be sealed by the cell, leading to a specific gene disruption, or resulting in a new target site for inserting DNA segments. Gene editing tools can sometimes bind to unintended sites, typically because of sequence homologies and/or mismatch tolerance.
