The treatment process for combination of CRISPR/Cas9 technology and chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy. CRISPR/Cas9 system can be used to genentate universal CAR-T cells and enhance CAR-T cell efficacy. The treatment progress is as follows: T cells are collected from peripheral blood of patients and further activated and expanded. Then the chimeric antigen receptor genes were inserted into T cells to generate chimeric antigen receptor modified T cells. The chimeric antigen receptor T cells are engineered by CRISPR/Cas9 system to generate universal chimeric antigen receptor T cells or enhanced chimeric antigen receptor T cells. Then these engineered chimeric antigen receptor T cells are expanded in vitro and later transferred back to patients.
