Xenetic presents preclinical data on DNase I with CAR T cells in murine model
Research Findings: Xenetic Biosciences presented preclinical data showing that co-administration of deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) with CAR T cells significantly suppressed lung metastasis in a murine melanoma model, enhancing tumor control and survival compared to CAR T cell therapy alone.
Immune Response Improvement: The combination treatment led to increased infiltration of T and CAR T cells in tumors and reduced markers of T cell exhaustion, indicating that DNase I helps counteract the immunosuppressive environment of tumors.
