Allogene Therapeutics' EVP of R&D and CMO, Dr. Zachary Roberts, penned an original article for Cell & Gene titled, The Path Forward for CLL is Allogeneic. In his article, Dr. Roberts explains that chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in the U.S. And that while CLL remains a disease that is managed, it is not one that is often cured. In this episode, Host Erin Harris follows up Roberts' article with in-depth questions around existing issues with current CAR T approaches, "auto versus allo," and why allogeneic is the path forward. They also discuss how and why allogeneic therapies are truly scalable.
