"Cerberus" T Cells: A Glucocorticoid-Resistant, Multi-Pathogen Specific T Cell Product to Fight Infections in Severely Immunocompromised Patients.. Adoptive immunotherapy (AI) with pathogen-specific T cells is a promising alternative to pharmacotherapy for the treatment of opportunistic infections after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation or solid organ transplantation. However, clinical implementation of AI is limited to patients not receiving high-dose steroids, a prerequisite for optimal T-cell function, practically excluding the most susceptible to infections patients from the benefits of AI. To address this issue, we here rapidly generated, clinical doses of a steroid-resista…
