Scientists from MIT and Harvard have developed engineered CAR-NK immune cells that evade the body's defenses to target cancer effectively. This advancement could enable off-the-shelf treatments available immediately after diagnosis, bypassing weeks of personalized cell production. The cells showed strong results in mouse tests, destroying most lymphoma cells without triggering severe side effects.
