Abstract

Abstract Summary: Sotillo and colleagues describe the molecular events associated with apparent loss of target antigen expression following CAR T-cell therapy. We propose that broader immune activation is required to prevent outgrowth of tumor antigen escape variants following targeted therapies. Cancer Discov; 5(12); 1238–40. ©2015 AACR.
