Abstract
Cellular therapies have demonstrated limited efficacy thus far in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A recent study shows that mTOR complex 1 activation downregulated CXCR4 reducing marrow infiltration of EpCAM-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells in AML. Abrogating mTOR signaling by cotreatment with mTOR inhibitors during IL2-mediated ex vivo expansion upregulated CXCR4 and bolstered bone marrow migration and AML elimination by CAR T-cells.See related article by Nian et al., p. 6026. ©2021 American Association for Cancer Research.Entities:
