Anti-mucin 1 chimeric antigen receptor T cells for adoptive T cell therapy of cholangiocarcinoma
Abstract Current treatments for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are largely unsuccessful due to late diagnosis at advanced stage, leading to high mortality rate. Consequently, improved therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy is a newly potential therapy th...

Abstract Current treatments for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) are largely unsuccessful due to late diagnosis at advanced stage, leading to high mortality rate.
