Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy represents a significant breakthrough in cancer treatment, offering a new approach to enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer. The therapy involves engineering T cells with synthetic receptors called CARs to recognize and destroy cancer cells. Despite significant advancements in the field, most production of these T cells can be done through viral vectors, which comes with high costs, safety concerns, and production challenges.
