The complete regression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) obtained pre-clinically with anti-carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) G36 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in doses equivalent to ≅108 CAR T cells/kg renewed the potential of this target to treat ccRCC and other tumors in hypoxia. This evidence concerns the gene CA9 and clear cell renal carcinoma.
