During 2017 the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved three new AML drugs and brought back a fourth that had been withdrawn in 2010.

This report describes the current state of CAR T-cell therapy and future strategies that should be considered as the application of this novel immunotherapy expands and evolves.

Recent advances in immunotherapies are changing the standard of care for patients with cancer.
