CAR-T: Why Not Me? Webinar | Sartorius

On-Demand Webinar: CAR-T: Why Not Me?

Overview

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell immunotherapy treatment has transformed the treatment of some cancers in some patients. But do we have an idea of which patient factors determine the success of CAR-T therapies.  How universal is the applicability of CAR-T and its variations such as CAR-NK.

This webinar consists of an expert panel, discussing the feasibility of predicting the potential of therapies based on patients’ immunological states. There is exploration of possibilities to adjust CAR-T or other immunotherapies, to accommodate patients.

The webinar panel discuss:

  • The applicability of CAR-T and its variations
  • What can be done to adjust CAR-T to accommodate patients who don't meet eligibility criteria
  • How flow cytometry can assist in the research, development and production of these therapies
