Exploring CAR-T Cell Therapy for Lupus

July 13, 2026

CAR-T cell therapy is an innovative treatment that uses a patient’s own immune cells to target disease. While it has been used successfully in certain cancers, researchers are now studying how it may help treat autoimmune conditions like lupus. Yale School of Medicine physician-scientists are working to better understand how this personalized approach could reset the immune system and improve outcomes. Ongoing research is helping to expand the possibilities of this promising therapy. Learn more about CAR-T cell therapy for lupus in the video above.
