High-risk EPN models present the immunotherapeutic target GD2 and are sensitive to GD2–CAR T cell therapy in vitro and in vivo

Research Letter: CAR T cells targeting the glycoprotein GD2 show potent antitumor efficacy in high-risk ependymoma models.

Antonio Carlos Tallon-Cobos & team establish a new ependymoma model for preclinical research and demonstrate a promising immunotherapeutic approach for this largely aggressive pediatric brain cancer.
