T cell receptor (TCR) gene therapy to treat melanoma: lessons from clinical and preclinical studies

Abstract excerpt

IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD: Adoptive T cell therapy (ACT) with tumour infiltrating lymphocytes is currently the best treatment option for metastatic melanoma. Despite its clinical successes, ACT has limitations in availability and generation of therapeutic T cells for a larger group of patients. Introduction of tumour-specific T cell receptors into T cells, termed TCR gene therapy, can provide an alternative for ACT...
