CAR-macrophage therapy for HER2-overexpressing advanced solid tumors: a phase 1 trial - Nature Medicine In a first-in-human phase 1 trial, HER2-specific CAR macrophages were feasible to manufacture and well tolerated, with no dose-limiting toxicities in patients with HER2-overexpressing solid tumors.

🚗 NEW #NatureMedicine paper reports results from a first-in-human trial of CAR-macrophages! Safe & feasible to manufacture, efficacy limited. More work needed in this space! @natureportfolio.nature.com #immunotherapy #CARTcells #macrophages
