Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are effective tools for directing T cell killing of tumors, but may cause adverse side effects. Here the authors show that coupling of antigen-recognition and CD3-binding in a modular format induces more efficient anti-tumour responses but reduced toxicity when compared with current CARs.
