Tuning sensitivity of CAR to EGFR density limits recognition of normal tissue while maintaining potent antitumor activity
HG Caruso, LV Hurton, A Najjar, D Rushworth, S Ang… - Cancer research, 2015 - AACR
Many tumors overexpress tumor-associated antigens relative to normal tissue, such as
EGFR. This limits targeting by human T cells modified to express chimeric antigen receptors …
