Where this comes from

Abstract

Adoptive immunotherapy, particularly chimeric antigen receptor T cells, has achieved considerable success in treating hematologic malignancies over the past decade. However, variability, time commitment and high cost for engineering patient-derived cells have limited their application. Human pluripotent stem cells could provide an off-the-shelf, cheaper and scalable solution to these issues.
