#ScienceSaturday ❓Can engineered T-cell therapies offer new hope for patients with advanced soft tissue sarcomas? ➡️ In this pilot study, D’Angelo (@sandrapdangelo) of @MSKCancerCenter et al., with contributions from Dr. Mihaela Druta (@MihaelaDruta) of @MoffittNews, evaluated letetresgene autoleucel (lete-cel), a T-cell receptor therapy targeting NY-ESO-1, in patients with advanced or metastatic myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (MRCLS). ➡️ Patients who received standard-dose lymphodepletion before lete-cel infusion had an overall response rate of 40 percent, with disease control in 80 percent of cases. These results show promising antitumor activity in a disease with few effective treatment options. 🌟 This study supports the potential of T-cell receptor therapies like lete-cel to improve outcomes for patients with aggressive sarcomas and highlights the critical role of collaborative research. 🔗 Read the full study in @JCO_ASCO: ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…




Dr. Sandra D’Angelo P’28, a Memorial Sloan Kettering medical oncologist, visited Regis today to speak with students about recent breakthroughs in cancer research. She also spoke about her role in groundbreaking studies to better treat those who have been diagnosed with sarcoma.
