Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T) has revolutionized cancer treatment by harnessing the immune system's power to target malignancies. CD19, a B-cell surface antigen, a key target for CAR-T cell therapy in hematological malignancies, displayed remarkable clinical responses. Recently, there has been a growing interest in exploring the application of CD19 CAR-T cell therapy beyond oncology. The rationale for investigating CD19 CAR-T cells in Rheumatology stems from their ability to selectively target B cells, which play a central pathogenic role through autoantibody-dependent and independent mechanisms.
