Professional Statement
The main research interest of my laboratory is studying immunobiology of T-cells engineered with chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and creating new cell therapies for devastating diseases. We investigate molecular mechanisms regulating the activity of CAR T-cells and develop new strategies for clinical translation. In particular, we are utilizing protein engineering and genome editing to create T-cell therapies against T-cell malignancies (T-ALL, T-cell lymphoma) with minimal damage to normal lymphocytes. We are also exploring new strategies to target pathogenic T-cells in the context of immune rejection and allo/autoimmune diseases. These therapies are being evaluated in Phase I clinical trials at BCM (NCT03081910, NCT03690011, NCT04219163).
