Immunotherapy with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)–expressing T cells
that target the disialoganglioside GD2 expressed on tumor cells may be a
therapeutic option for patients with high-risk neuroblastoma. In an
academic, phase 1–2 clinical trial, the investigators enrolled patients
(1 to 25 years of age) with relapsed or refractory, high-risk
neuroblastoma in order to test autologous, third-generation GD2-CAR T
cells expressing the inducible caspase 9 suicide gene (GD2-CART01).
