Abstract
Efforts to produce adoptive cell therapies in AML have been largely unfruitful, despite the success seen in lymphoid malignancies. Identifying targetable antigens on leukemic cells that are absent on normal progenitor cells remains a major obstacle, as is the hostile tumor microenvironment created by AML blasts. In this review, we summarize the challenges in the development of adoptive cell therapies such as CAR-T, CAR-NK, and TCR-T cells in AML, discussing both autologous and allogeneic therapies. We also discuss methods to address myelotoxicity associated with these therapies, including rapidly switchable CAR platforms and CRISPR-Cas9 genetic engineering of hematopoietic stem cells. Finally, we present the current clinical landscape in these areas, along with future directions in the field.
