B7-H3 as a Target for CAR-T Cell Therapy in Skull Base Chordoma

Objectivechordomas are rare bone tumors with few therapeutic options. Skull base and sacrum are the two most common origin sites. Immunotherapies are emerging as the most promising approaches to fight various cancers. This study tends to identify new cell surface targets for immunotherapeutic option...
