CD19 CAR immune pressure induces B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia lineage switch exposing inherent leukaemic plasticity

CAR-T targeting CD19 have been successfully used in a variety of B-cell malignancies but patients may eventually relapse. Here, the authors show that CD19 CAR-T resistance in pre-B cell ALL can be due to the induction of a myeloid lineage switch through an epigenetic alterations in master regulators...
