Dear Editor,Genetically engineered T cell therapy is a promising new strategy to combat cancer.The chimeric antigen receptor-expressing T cell (CART) approach has achieved success in clinical trials of patients with non-solid tumors ”1,2”.Some limitations nevertheless have emerged.Among them are restriction of the CARs to the cell surface and the risks associated with retroviral integration in the genome ”3,4”.A recent development is the design of bispecific T-cell engagers (BiTEs),a class of artificial bispecific antibodies that are composed of two single-chain variable fragments (scFv),one specific for a T-cell-specific molecule,usually CD3,and the other specific for a tumor-associated antigen ”5-8”.
