Endosialin-directed CAR-T cell therapy: A promising approach for targeting triple-negative breast cancer

Abstract

In triple-negative breast cancer, this review article explores into the utilization of Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) cell therapy to target cells expressing endosialin. Even with all the new treatments available, breast cancer still kills more women than any other disease. Drug resistance and ineffective cancer cell targeting are two major problems with targeted medications, chemotherapy, and surgery. Among cancer treatments, CAR-T cell therapy stands out. To identify endosialin as a therapeutic target, it is essential to understand its molecular structure and its involvement in tumor angiogenesis and progression. An effective target for CAR-T cells is breast cancer, which overexpresses endosialin. The development of CARs that are specific to endosialin and the results of early trials are covered in relation to CAR-T cell therapy that targets endosialin. Perhaps the most effective cancer treatment is endosialin targeting, since it is expressed only in tumors and plays a crucial role in the course of cancer. This article reviews endosialin-directed CAR-T cell breast cancer treatments' safety and efficacy from current and completed clinical trials. Despite promising results, these trials reveal that clinical translation must overcome significant challenges. The report suggests further research and combination tactics to improve endosialin-targeted CAR-T cell treatment.
