  • Patent number: 11840575
    Abstract: The present invention provides an engineered immune cell targeting BCMA and use thereof. In particular, the present invention provides a CAR specifically targeting BCMA, the CAR comprising an antigen-binding domain which is an S-derived scFv, an antibody heavy chain variable region as shown in SEQ ID NO: 9 and an antibody light chain variable region as shown in SEQ ID NO: 10. The present invention also provides a CAR-T cell comprising the CAR, a double CAR- and CAR-T cell comprising the S-derived scFv, and related use thereof. Compared to CAR-T cells constructed using other scFvs, the constructed CAR-T cell of the present invention has a better killing effect and tumor elimination capability.

  • Publication number: 20230235052
    Abstract: A humanized CD 19 antibody, and a chimeric antigen receptor thereof, an immune cell thereof and the use thereof are provided. The humanized CD19 antibody is based on a FMC63 chimeric antibody, which is subjected to humanization modification. A CAR-T and a dual CAR-T cell constructed based on the humanized antibody and the related use thereof are also provided. Compared with a CAR-T cell constructed by using FMC63, the CAR-T cell constructed based on the humanized antibody has higher killing effect and tumor removal ability.

  • Publication number: 20230113157
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an engineered immune cell and use thereof. The present disclosure provides an engineered immune cell comprising a CAR or engineered TCR, which CAR or engineered TCR can comprise a first antigen binding domain and a second antigen binding domain. The engineered immune cells of the present disclosure, when administered into a subject, can inhibit the host immune cells such as T cells and/or NK cells and enhance the survival and persistence of the engineered immune cells in vivo, thereby exhibiting more effective tumor killing activity.

  • Publication number: 20220202864
    Abstract: Provided are a BCMA-targeting engineered immune cell and the use thereof. In particular, a CAR specifically targeting BCMA is provided. In the CAR, an antigen binding domain contained therein is a J-derived scFv, having an antibody heavy-chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO: 9, and an antibody light-chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO: 10. Also provided are a CAR-T cell containing the CAR, and a duplex CAR and CAR T cells containing the J-derived scFv, and related uses thereof. Compared with CAR-T cells constructed by using other scFvs, the CAR-T cells constructed by the present invention have higher killing effects and tumor clearance ability.

  • Publication number: 20200181608
    Abstract: Provided is a method for knocking out target genes in T cells in vitro based on the CRISPR-Cas9 system. Also provided are crRNAs that target the TRAC, B2M and PD1 genes, and a kit comprising sgRNA formed by linking the crRNA and tracrRNA corresponding to a Cas9 protein, the Cas9 protein, an oligo deoxyribonucleic acid (N-oligo) or a milt DNA fragment. The kit is used to knock out the TCR, B2M and/or PD1 genes in T cells. Also provided are T cells with gene knockout, obtained according to a method of the present invention and uses thereof.
