Implementation Constraints
The construct must incorporate heparanase expression or secretion alongside the CAR program.; requires CAR designs capable of enzyme expression or secretion
Independent follow-up evidence is still limited. Validation breadth across biological contexts is still narrow. Independent reuse still looks limited, so the evidence base may be fragile. No canonical validation observations are stored yet, so context-specific performance remains under-specified.
