Abstract

CAR-T cells rest to get back in the race: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)–T cells, which are engineered to target specific tumor antigens, are increasingly used as an immunotherapy. CAR-T cells have shown promising results in patients, particularly in hematologic cancers, but their anticancer activity can be limited by the onset of exhaustion and the loss of effectiveness. Weber et al. characterized the phenotypic and epigenomic changes associated with CAR-T cell exhaustion caused by continuous activity and the beneficial effects of transient rest periods (see the Perspective by Mamonkin and Brenner). The authors tested different approaches for providing these rest periods, such as using the drug dasatinib to temporarily suppress T cell activity, which helped to prevent exhaustion and improved antitumor activity in mouse models.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
