Abstract: Control Devices are disclosed including RNA destabilizing elements (RDE) combined with transgenes, including Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) in eukaryotic cells. These RDEs can be used to optimize expression of transgenes, e.g., CARs, in the eukaryotic cells so that, for example, effector function is optimized. CARs and transgene payloads can also be engineered into eukaryotic cells so that the transgene payload is expressed and delivered at desired times from the eukaryotic cell. Such CAR T-cells with transgene payloads can be combined with the administration of other molecules, e.g., other therapeutics such as anticancer therapies.

Abstract: Control Devices are disclosed including RNA destabilizing elements (RDE), RNA control devices, and destabilizing elements (DE) combined with Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) or other transgenes in eukaryotic cells. Multicistronic vectors are also disclosed for use in engineering host eukaryotic cells with the CARs and transgenes under the control of the control devices. These control devices can be used to optimize expression of CARs in the eukaryotic cells so that, for example, effector function is optimized. CARs and transgene payloads can also be engineered into eukaryotic cells so that the transgene payload is expressed and delivered after stimulation of the CAR on the eukaryotic cell.

Abstract: Tandem gene pairs are described in which the GC3 Content of one gene changes its level of expression, and changes the level of expression of the tandem gene. This gene control is called Mercury and can be used to control the expression level of a gene of interest. Mercury is used herein to reduce tonic signaling from chimeric antigen receptors by reducing the expression of a chimeric antigen receptor.

Abstract: RNA Control Devices and/or destabilizing elements (DE) can regulate the expression of Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) in eukaryotic cells. More specifically, DEs, RNA Control Devices, and/or side-CARs can be used with small molecule ligands to regulate the expression of Chimeric Antigen Receptors. These DE-CARs, Smart CARs (Smart=small molecule actuatable RNA trigger), Smart-DE-CARs, and/or Side-CARs can be used in the treatment of disease.

Abstract: Control Devices are disclosed including RNA destabilizing elements (RDE), and RNA control devices, combined with transgenes, including Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) in eukaryotic cells.
