Activity opens: 01/02/2023
Activity expires: 01/03/2025
Activity description:
This activity consists of a recorded presentation from the "31st Annual National Clinical Conference" held in Bloomington, Minn., Oct. 17-19, 2022.
The emergence of various novel CAR T-cell therapies has grown exponentially since the first CAR T-cell therapy approval. Over the years, a growing pipeline of CAR T-cell clinical trials have been accumulating, developing strategies to improve the outcomes of CAR T-cell therapies and minimize toxicities. Even though CAR T-cell therapy has only been approved for a limited range of cancer indications, the emerging trend is to develop CAR T-cell treatments for other conditions as well.
These therapies are also still incredibly costly and carry risks that can be life-threatening. Potential solutions to these problems are still in the early stages, but health care professionals are beginning to get a vision of what the future of CAR T-cell therapy might look like. This session discusses CAR T-cell therapy, its current trends, along with the challenges and costs, and what the future may hold for emerging treatment for various conditions.
