Abstract: The present invention relates to a modified natural killer (NK) cell and its use in personalised medicine. The modified NK cells of the present invention are non-immunogenic, meaning that they are able to be administered to any recipient subject without being rejected by the host immune system (they are “universal”). In a first embodiment the non-immunogenic NK cells are modified to express CD3 to allow a T-cell Receptor (TcR) to be expressed. In a further embodiment the non-immunogenic NK cells are further modified to express a TcR together with the CD3 co-receptor. Co-expression of CD3 with a specific TcR results in the modified NK cells showing antigen-specific cytotoxicity towards target cells. Universal NK cells can thus be targeted against specific antigens, and may thus be used in personalised medicine, particularly in the field of oncology.

Abstract: The present invention relates to TCR molecules which recognise neopeptides produced as a result of the cancer-associated “?1A” frameshift mutation in human TGF?RII. The TCR molecules are capable of binding a peptide of SEQ ID NO: 1 when said peptide is presented by a Class I MHC, and comprise an ?-chain domain and a ?-chain domain, each chain domain comprising three CDR sequences, wherein a) CDRs 1, 2 and 3 of the ?-chain domain have the sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 2, 3 and 4 respectively; and b) CDRs 1, 2 and 3 of the ?-chain domain have the sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 5, 6 and 7 respectively, and wherein one or more of said CDR sequences may optionally be modified by substitution, addition or deletion of 1 or 2 amino acids. Nucleic acid molecules encoding such TCRs are provided, as are soluble TCR molecules with these CDR sequences.
