Patents by Inventor Daniel T. Harris

Daniel T. Harris has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20220396606
    Abstract: T cell receptors (TCRs) that have higher affinity for the Survivin antigen are provided. The high affinity TCRs were engineered through the generation of mutational libraries of TCRs in a single-chain format, followed by selection for improved stability and affinity on the surface of yeast (i.e. directed evolution). In embodiments, the engineered TCRs can be used in soluble form for targeted delivery in vivo, or as genes introduced into T cells in an adoptive T cell setting.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 10344075
    Abstract: T cell receptors (TCRs) that have specificity for the WT1 antigen are provided. The TCRs include higher affinity TCRs that were engineered through the generation of mutational libraries of TCRs in a single-chain format, followed by selection for improved stability and affinity on the surface of yeast (i.e. directed evolution). In embodiments, the TCRs can be used in soluble form for targeted delivery in vivo, or as genes introduced into T cells in an adoptive T cell setting.
