TABLE 1.
Comparison of different ACT.
ACT Type | Advantages | Disadvantages |
---|---|---|
TIL | High response rate in melanoma; proven clinical efficacy | Limited availability and viability of TILs; complex and time‐consuming manufacturing process |
TCR‐T | Broad applicability across different cancer types; potential for improved specificity and reduced toxicity compared to CAR‐T | Limited antigen specificity; risk for TCR mispairing; complex manufacturing process |
CAR‐T | High response rate in hematologic malignancies; potential for sustained antitumor activity | Risk of cytokine release syndrome; limited persistence and expansion in vivo; complex manufacturing process |
CAR‐NK | Lower cases of cytokine release syndrome compared to CAR‐T; potential for improved safety profile | Limited persistence and expansion in vivo; potential for low specificity |
CAR‐macrophage | Potentially penetrate solid tumors; high phagocytic activity | Limited clinical data; immunosuppressive effects |
DC vaccine | Stimulate a broad immune response; potential for enhanced T cell memory | Complex manufacturing process; limited antigen specificity |
