These results highlight the importance of TAMs in modulating treatment response. This study provides a preclinical proof of concept for the efficacy of combining mifamurtide with doxorubicin in managing chondrosarcoma, highlighting the potential of immunomodulator and chemotherapy co-treatment in improving treatment outcomes.
In this merged analysis with a risk-adapted strategy for nonmetastatic osteosarcoma, the group with unfavorable prognoses, identified by Pgp expression, performed well when mifamurtide, combined with HDIFO in case of poor response, was administered after surgery.
Early-phase clinical studies (e.g., CT-0508) demonstrate feasibility and TME remodeling with CAR-MΦ...Emerging combinatorial strategies, such as dual-effector regimens (CAR-NK+ CAR-MΦ), cytokine-modulated cross-support, and bispecific or logic-gated CARs, may overcome these barriers and provide more durable, tumor-selective responses. Taken together, CAR-NK and CAR-MΦ platforms are poised to expand the reach of engineered cell therapy into the solid tumor domain.
A validated osteosarcoma TME prognostic gene signature has been identified, regardless of mifamurtide treatment. Importantly, a mifamurtide-related signature was also developed. Tumor-immune interactions possibly implicated in disease progression and treatment response were shown.

The ability of CO-005 to trigger strong PCCD while preserving conventional immune responses provides a novel and promising approach for CD47-targeted cancer therapy. Its favorable safety profile, observed in both in vitro and ex vivo studies, positions CO-005 as a promising candidate with potential therapeutic advantages over existing anti-CD47 treatments.
These findings demonstrate the preliminary safety, tolerability and manufacturing feasibility of CT-0508 for HER2+ tumors. ClinicalTrials.gov registration: NCT04660929 .
Incubating bone cores with mifamurtide induced a reduction of cellular markers and an increase in bone volume. This 3D bone core model has the potential to investigate osteosarcoma tumor microenvironment and provides a representative model for evaluation of novel therapies.
