Abstract
Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has emerged as a revolutionary method in cancer immunotherapy, achieving notable success in treating hematological malignancies. However, its effectiveness in solid tumors is limited, and the therapy faces challenges such as severe toxicities and high production costs. Polymer-based nanoparticles (PNPs) are gaining attention as a non-viral gene delivery system that can help address these issues, providing greater safety, scalability, and cost-effectiveness compared to viral vectors. This mini-review delves into various types of PNPs, including cationic, biodegradable, and stimuli-responsive polymers, showcasing their mechanisms for cellular uptake and sustained gene expression in CAR-T cells. Innovations like lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles and combination therapies improve gene delivery efficiency and therapeutic outcomes. Despite progress, challenges, including toxicity and immunogenicity, remain, prompting strategies such as surface modifications and targeting ligands. Recent advancements illustrate the potential of hybrid nanoparticles in enhancing CAR-T therapies, particularly for solid tumors, highlighting their critical role in cancer immunotherapy advancements.
