Biography
David Miklos is a leading figure in cellular immunotherapy and central to the clinical development of CAR-T cell therapy. He led the trials supporting FDA approval of axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) in large B-cell lymphoma and brexucabtagene autoleucel (brexu-cel) in mantle cell lymphoma. He directs one of the largest cell therapy programs in the country, and his lab identified antigen loss as the major cause of CAR-T failure and pioneered circulating tumor DNA for lymphoma minimal residual disease. His work on the biology and safe management of CAR-T continues to make the therapy more precise and durable for patients.
