New publication in Cancer Cell: CSF1R+ myeloid-monocytic cells drive CAR-T cell resistance in aggressive B cell lymphoma

The study provides important new insights into mechanisms of CAR-T therapy resistance in B cell malignancies.

 

In brief this study, co-authored by the members of project B05 - David Stahl and Roland Ullrich, identifies a CSF1R⁺ myeloid-monocytic population in primary human B-NHL that suppresses CAR-T cell activity. CSF1R blockade reprograms the tumour microenvironment and boosts CAR-T efficacy in an autochthonous mouse model — supporting further clinical exploration. This excellent work is a strong collaborative effort within the SFB 1530 | CRC 1530 and beyond.
