A CAR-T cell inside noise-cancelling headphones as suppressive signals approach

CAR-T therapies use engineered immune cells to recognize and attack cancer. We design those cells to resist the signals tumors use to shut them down.

The durability gap

In recurrent glioblastoma, CAR-T can shrink tumors. Control often does not last.

WHAT DURABLE CONTROL REQUIRES

A response is only the beginning.

A complete product must do all four.

ReadyAvailable when treatment is needed.

Reach

Get to the tumor.

Recognize

See enough of the tumor to limit escape.

Defining advance

Resist

Keep working when the tumor fights back.

Our approach to resistance

Noise cancellation for cell therapy.

We use multiplex gene editing to help CAR-T cells resist several suppressive routes at once.

The tumor keeps sending the signals. We change which ones the cell can hear.
