title = "Genetic mechanisms of target antigen loss in CAR19 therapy of acute lymphoblastic leukemia",
abstract = " We identified genetic mutations in CD19 and loss of heterozygosity at the time of CD19 – relapse to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy. The mutations are present in the vast majority of resistant tumor cells and are predicted to lead to a truncated protein with a nonfunctional or absent transmembrane domain and consequently to a loss of surface antigen. This irreversible loss of CD19 advocates for an alternative targeting or combination CAR approach.",
