Popis: Here, we highlight key papers published in 2018 that advance our understanding of resistance to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell immunotherapy for leukaemia and lymphoma and in so doing reveal barriers that must be addressed to increase efficacy of this novel class of therapeutics for B cell malignancies and expand their reach to solid tumours. Several clinical studies in 2018 documented the potency of therapies based on T cells with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR T cells), but also revealed mechanisms of resistance. These insights may facilitate the design of improved CAR T cell therapies for B cell malignancies and beyond.
