Background aimsChimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells are a remarkably efficacious, highly promising and rapidly evolving strategy in the field of immuno-oncology. The precision these targeted cellular therapies is driven by specificity recognition element (the "binder") encoded CAR. This binder redirects immune effector precisely toward defined on surface cancer cells, leading to T-cell receptor–independent tumor lysis. Currently, for targeting most CAR-T designed using single-chain variable fragments (scFvs) derived from murine or human immunoglobulins. However, there several emerging alternative modalities that finding increasing utility improved CAR function beyond scFvs.MethodsHere we review recent developments use non-canonical protein binding domains design, including nanobodies, DARPins, natural ligands, de novo–designed elements.ResultsOverall, describe how new formats, with their unique structural properties mechanisms action, may possess key advantages over traditional scFv designs.ConclusionsThese designs contribute enhanced therapeutic options and, ultimately, outcomes patients.

Proteasome inhibitors (PIs), bortezomib, carfilzomib, and ixazomib, are the first-line treatment for multiple myeloma (MM). They inhibit cytosolic protein degradation in cells, which leads to accumulation of misfolded malfunctioned proteins cytosol endoplasmic reticulum, resulting cell death. Despite being a breakthrough MM therapy, malignant cells develop resistance PIs via different mechanisms. Understanding these mechanisms drives research toward new anticancer agents overcome PI resistance.
