  "term": "anti-mesothelin CAR T cells UCMYM802",
  "field": "Oncology and biomedicine",
  "definition": "A preparation of T lymphocytes that have been genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specific for the human tumor-associated antigen (TAA) mesothelin (MSLN), with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, anti-MSLN CAR T cells UCMYM802 specifically target and kill MSLN-expressing tumor cells. MSLN, a cell surface glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion, is overexpressed in a variety of cancer cell types.",
