CAR T cells redirected to cell surface GRP78 display robust anti-acute myeloid leukemia activity and do not target hematopoietic progenitor cells

There is an unmet need to discover suitable targets for CAR-T therapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here the authors show that GRP78, a key regulator of the unfolded protein response, is highly expressed on the surface of primary AML blasts, but not on normal lymphocytes and hematop...
