Abstract
Over the past five years, allogeneic off-the-shelf CAR-engineered cell therapies have advanced rapidly. By bypassing the individualized manufacturing, high cost, and eligibility constraints of autologous products, allogeneic platforms, especially those derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), promise broader, faster access for cancer patients. This perspective reviews recent preclinical and clinical milestones, outlining genetic designs, scalable production workflows, and early-phase trial outcomes. We assess safety profiles, antitumor activity, and in vivo persistence, spotlighting innovations like T cell receptor alpha constant (TRAC) knockout, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) camouflage, and interleukin (IL)-15 armoring. Finally, we identify emerging trends and challenges that will shape the future development of allogeneic iPSC-derived CAR therapies.
期刊介绍：
Stem Cell Reports publishes high-quality, peer-reviewed research presenting conceptual or practical advances across the breadth of stem cell research and its applications to medicine. Our particular focus on shorter, single-point articles, timely publication, strong editorial decision-making and scientific input by leaders in the field and a "scoop protection" mechanism are reasons to submit your best papers.
