Recent advancements in immunotherapy demonstrate that viral capsids and virus-like particles can be engineered to deliver receptor-based constructs like CARs to target cancer cells.

The analysis

The provided papers (specifically papers 0 and 2) discuss the use of viral vectors, viral-like particles, and capsid engineering to deliver chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and other immunotherapeutic payloads for targeted cancer treatment. The claim is well-supported by these findings.

what the evidence does support

Viral capsids and virus-like particles can be engineered to deliver receptor-based constructs to target cancer cells.
