Episode Synopsis

One of the big themes of this week’s ASGCT meeting will be CAR T cells in cancer and beyond. On the latest BioCentury This Week podcast, BioCentury’s editors preview the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy’s annual meeting. Much of the CAR T field has reoriented from cancer to autoimmune diseases over the past year. Now, researchers are looking even farther afield. According to abstracts released ahead of ASGCT, the engineered T cell modality may have new benefits to offer patients with asthma, Duchenne muscular dystrophy or HIV. The editors also discuss a study aiming to quantify the benefits accelerated approval has had for cancer patients, and what’s next for the Biosecure Act and similar legislation seeking to rein in Chinese CDMOs and genomics companies. This week’s podcast is sponsored by Nxera Pharma.Don’t miss BioCentury’s new podcast, The BioCentury Show, featuring BioCentury one-on-one with an industry KOL.
