Adoptive cell transfer
3 articles
Rather than a branded system, adoptive cell transfer denotes an adoptive cellular immunotherapy strategy whose identity comes from adoptive cellular immunotherapy, ex vivo lymphocyte expansion and autologous immune cell infusion. In practice, those features are connected with engineered T-cell therapy, CAR T-cell therapy and TCR T-cell therapy; a further biotechnology context is tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Its boundaries are set by cell source, engineering status and immune mechanism, which distinguish adoptive cell transfer from neighboring adoptive-cell and transplantation approaches.
