Drawing directly from real clinical experiences and translational research, this episode explores how immune cells can be reprogrammed to last longer, fight harder, and potentially change survival outcomes for patients with advanced cancers. The in-depth conversation explores next-generation T-cell therapies, including stem-like memory T cells, and their potential in treating solid tumors. Schelker unpacks the science, the clinical challenges, and how these advances may translate from research into real-world patient care.
