  • Publication number: 20240041933
    Abstract: Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) and/or non-T effector cells are genetically modified to express (i) an extracellular component including a ligand binding domain that binds a cellular marker preferentially expressed on an unwanted cell; and (ii) an intracellular component comprising an effector domain. Among other uses, the modified cells can be administered to patients to target unwanted cancer cells without the need for immunological matching before administration.

  • Publication number: 20240027460
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to biomarker profiles and their use to predict a subject's response to an immunomodulatory treatment. Biomarkers in these profiles include cytokines and other proteins associated with the interleukin 1 family and the type 1 interferon family. Particular biomarkers include interleukin (IL)-2, soluble IL-2 receptor alpha (sIL-2RA), IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-18, IL-18 binding protein (IL-18BP), IL-18 receptor 1 (IL-18R1), IL-18 receptor accessory protein (IL-18RAP), IL-22, C-type lectin-like receptor (CD161), CD56, interferon gamma (IFN?), granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), serum amyloid A (SAA), and C-reactive protein (CRP). Particular biomarkers also include populations of cells including CD161+ cells and CD56+dim cells. The biomarker profiles can be used to predict a subject's responsiveness to an immunomodulatory treatment (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20230322937
    Abstract: Provided are methods for preventing or ameliorating toxicity caused by or due to a therapy, such as an immunotherapy or a cell therapy, by pre-emptive or early administration toxicity-targeting agent(s). In some embodiments, the therapy is a cell therapy in which the cells generally express recombinant receptors such as chimeric receptors, e.g., chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) or other transgenic receptors such as T cell receptors (TCRs). Features of the methods, including the timing of the administration of the agents or treatments for toxicity, provide various advantages, such as lower toxicity while maintaining persistence and efficacy of the administered cells.

  • Publication number: 20190381104
    Abstract: Hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) and/or non-T effector cells are genetically modified to express (i) an extracellular component including a ligand binding domain that binds a cellular marker preferentially expressed on an unwanted cell; and (ii) an intracellular component comprising an effector domain. Among other uses, the modified cells can be administered to patients to target unwanted cancer cells without the need for immunological matching before administration.
