Abstract: The present invention relates to efficient methods for providing antigen-specific lymphoid cells. These lymphoid cells may be used to provide antigen specific T cell receptors having a defined MHC restriction and to identify immunologically relevant T cell epitopes. Furthermore, the present invention relates to antigen-specific T cell receptors and T cell epitopes and their use in immunotherapy.

Abstract: The present invention generally embraces the treatment of diseases by targeting cells expressing an antigen on the cell surface. In particular the invention relates to a method for stimulating, priming and/or expanding in vivo T cells genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeted to an antigen, comprising contacting the T cells with the antigen or a variant thereof in vivo. In one embodiment, the antigen or variant thereof is provided by administering a nucleic acid encoding the antigen or variant thereof.
