- Abstract
Recent remarkable advancements in cancer immunotherapy have rendered adoptive T cell therapy an option of clinical treatment of patients with cancer following the success of immune checkpoint inhibitors. In 2017, the FDA approved adoptive cell therapy with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) gene-modified T cells as a treatment for patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia and diffuse large cell lymphoma. In February this year, it was announced that this therapy will also be approved in Japan soon. Adoptive therapy with T-cell receptor (TCR) gene-modified T cells is a promising therapy for patients with hematological malignancy and solid tumors that follow the success of CAR-T cell therapy. This review aims to summarize the recent progress and issues of TCR gene-modified T-cell therapy with the introduction of our recent study.
