  • Publication number: 20230201260
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods for developing engineered T-cells for immunotherapy that are non-alloreactive. The present invention relates to methods for modifying T-cells by inactivating both genes encoding T-cell receptor and an immune checkpoint gene to unleash the potential of the immune response. This method involves the use of specific rare cutting endonucleases, in particular TALE-nucleases (TAL effector endonuclease) and polynucleotides encoding such polypeptides, to precisely target a selection of key genes in T-cells, which are available from donors or from culture of primary cells. The invention opens the way to standard and affordable adoptive immunotherapy strategies for treating cancer and viral infections.

  • Patent number: 11077144
    Abstract: The present invention relates to chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). CARs are able to redirect immune cell specificity and reactivity toward a selected target exploiting the ligand-binding domain properties. In particular, the present invention relates to a Chimeric Antigen Receptor in which extracellular ligand binding is a scFV derived from a CD19 monoclonal antibody, preferably 4G7. The present invention also relates to polynucleotides, vectors encoding said CAR and isolated cells expressing said CAR at their surface. The present invention also relates to methods for engineering immune cells expressing 4G7-CAR at their surface which confers a prolonged “activated” state on the transduced cell.

  • Patent number: 10544201
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a new generation of chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) referred to as multi-chain CARs, which are made specific to the antigen ROR1. Such CARs aim to redirect immune cell specificity and reactivity toward malignant cells expressing the tumor antigen ROR1. The alpha, beta and gamma polypeptides composing these CARs are designed to assemble in juxtamembrane position, which forms flexible architecture closer to natural receptors, that confers optimal signal transduction. The invention encompasses the polynucleotides, vectors encoding said multi-chain CAR and the isolated cells expressing them at their surface, in particularly for their use in immunotherapy. The invention opens the way to efficient adoptive immunotherapy strategies for treating cancer, especially chronic lymphocytic leukemia or solid tumors.
