Will we be able to manufacture CART cells inside our own bodies?

We truly live in exciting times for the potential future treatment of CLL.

In the latest podcast from The Hematologist, Drs. Caron Jacobson and Marcela Maus discuss the idea of instantaneous production of CAR T-cells inside the patient’s body as a way to overcome the potentially rate-limiting manufacture times and costs of current technologies.

With many of us able to get ten year plus remissions on current treatments these kinds of ideas give great hope for the future.
