Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has made significant strides in the treatment of B-cell malignancies, but its application in treating solid tumors still poses significant challenges. Particularly, the widespread use of viral vectors to deliver CAR transgenes into T cells comes with limitations, including high costs and regulatory restrictions, which hinder the translation of novel genetic engineering concepts into clinical applications. Non-viral methods, such as transposon/transposase and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas systems, offer promising alternatives for stable transgene insertion in CAR-T cells. These methods offer the potential to increase accessibility and efficiency in the development and delivery of CAR-T cell therapies. The main challenge in using non-viral methods, however, is their low knock-in efficiency, which leads to low transgene expression levels. In this review, we discuss recent developments in non-viral approaches for CAR-T cell production, the manufacturing requirements for clinical-grade production of non-viral CAR-T cells, and the adjustments needed in quality control for proper characterization of genomic features and evaluation of potential genotoxicity. High costs and regulatory hurdles associated with viral vectors for CAR T therapies. Non-viral gene delivery may overcome limitations of viral vector gene delivery. Low knock-in efficiency remains a challenge in non-viral CAR-T cell production. Focus on advancements in non-viral vector design and clinical manufacturing. Analytical methods to characterize off-target editing and genotoxicity.
