Bg boost for single donor CAR-T

Ray,

Sounds like you are (rightfully) quite proud of your daughter.

Any quick comparison of how this more generalized CAR-T therapy might compare to the “push/pull” cancer fighting strategies that Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR) seems to be working on with NKTR-214 and NKTR-262, in particular.

In case you happened to miss it, here is a link to an excellent thread from 10 days or so ago started by Motley Fool One’s Ted Yun on Nektar and their method of attacking cancer.

Shortly after that thread, Saul provided this concise post/thread about finally getting checkpoint inhibitors.

Perhaps you or your daughter could have some insights? Is CAR-T more of a “cure cure”, but more expensive?

Thanks in advance,
