| Summary: | Abstract The application of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in central nervous system tumors has significantly advanced; however, challenges pertaining to the blood-brain barrier, immunosuppressive microenvironment, and antigenic heterogeneity continue to be encountered, unlike its success in hematological malignancies such as acute lymphoblastic leukemia and diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. This review examined the research progress of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in gliomas, medulloblastomas, and lymphohematopoietic tumors of the central nervous system, focusing on chimeric antigen receptor T-cells targeting antigens such as EGFRvIII, HER2, B7H3, GD2, and CD19 in preclinical and clinical studies. It synthesized current research findings to offer valuable insights for future chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapeutic strategies for central nervous system tumors and advance the development and application of this therapeutic modality in this domain. |
