摘要
This narrative review examines the promising potential of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) with CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing to advance CAR T-cell therapy. AI algorithms offer unparalleled precision in identifying genetic targets, essential for enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of CAR T-cell treatments. This precision is critical for eliminating negative regulatory elements that undermine therapy effectiveness. Additionally, AI streamlines the manufacturing process, significantly reducing costs and increasing accessibility, thereby encouraging further research and development investment. A key benefit of AI integration is improved safety; by predicting and minimizing off-target effects, AI enhances the specificity of CRISPR-Cas9 edits, contributing to safer CAR T-cell therapy. This advancement is crucial for patient safety and broader clinical adoption. The convergence of AI and CRISPR-Cas9 has transformative potential, poised to revolutionize personalized immunotherapy. These innovations could expand the application of CAR T-cell therapy beyond hematologic malignancies to various solid tumors and other non-hematologic conditions, heralding a new era in cancer treatment that substantially improves patient outcomes. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd
