Abstract
T cells engineered to express transgenes such as chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) or modified T cell receptors (TCR) represent a new pillar of cancer therapy. Use of CRISPR/Cas gene-editing tools now allows even stronger and more precise control over the fate and function of engineered T cell therapies, including multiplex genome editing to facilitate use of off-the-shelf allogeneic T cells and novel approaches which have the potential to overcome some of the limitations of canonical Cas9-mediated DNA cleavage. This review summarizes the CRISPR/Cas techniques that have been used in preclinical research and outlines those that currently being tested in clinical trials.
