  • Publication number: 20220133792
    Abstract: Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are disclosed, along with nucleic acids and vectors encoding, and recombinant cells comprising such CARs and therapeutic compositions containing any of the foregoing. The CARs may comprise mutations that alter CAR expression, cytotoxicity, or cytokine production. Also provided are methods for using recombinant cells comprising these CARs for immunotherapy, e.g., in treating cancer by the administration of a therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the CAR polypeptides, nucleic acids, vectors, and/or immune cells, e.g., human CAR T cells, described herein optionally in combination with other immune and cancer treatments.

  • Publication number: 20210015861
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to novel chimeric antigen receptors (“CARs”), modified regulatory T cells (“Tregs”) expressing such CARs and/or Tregs which are engineered to express neurodegenerative disease modifying molecules, e.g., which express molecules which prevent oxidative/inflammatory activity, or which promote neuronal growth/survival such as nerve growth factors or non-classical neurotrophic factors. The present disclosure also generally relates to compositions containing such modified Tregs, and methods of use thereof as therapeutics, in particular for treating and preventing neurodegenerative diseases and symptoms associated with therewith, and/or for slowing the onset of such neurodegenerative diseases, particularly in persons at risk because of genetic factors or in persons exhibiting early signs of developing such a neurodegenerative disease.

  • Publication number: 20200369773
    Abstract: The invention provides chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), nucleic acid sequences encoding a CAR, vectors comprising a nucleic acid sequence encoding a CAR, cells expressing a CAR, pharmaceutical compositions comprising a cell expressing a CAR, wherein the CAR binds to a target molecule expressed on disease-associated macrophages or over- or aberrantly-expressed in fibrosis. The invention further provides vectors encoding a CAR and a fibrotic disease-modulatory molecule (FDMM), and cells expressing both a CAR and an FDMM. The invention also provides methods of treating a subject using a CAR, a nucleic acid sequence, a vector or vectors, or a CAR-expressing cell, a cell expressing both a CAR and an FDMM, or a pharmaceutical composition, and to methods of generating a CAR-expressing cell or a cell expressing both a CAR and an FDMM.
