Targeting hypoxia downstream signaling protein, CAIX, for CAR T-cell therapy against glioblastoma

Abstract

By establishing the specificity of CAIX under hypoxic conditions in glioblastoma and highlighting its efficacy as a target for CAR T-cell therapy, our data suggest that anti-CAIX CAR T may be a promising strategy to treat glioblastoma. Direct intratumoral injection increases anti-CAIX CAR T-cell potency while limiting its off-target effects.
