ASCO GI 2023 | Current hurdles in developing CAR-T therapies for gastrointestinal tumors

Current hurdles in developing CAR-T therapies for gastrointestinal tumors

J. Randolph Hecht, MD, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, comments on remaining challenges in the field of CAR-T and cellular therapies for gastrointestinal malignancies.

This interview took place at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2023 Gastrointestinal Cancers (GI) Symposium in San Francisco, CA.
