Publication number: 20240307445Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods for inhibiting one or more diacylglycerol kinase (DOK) isoform in a cell in order to enhance the cytolytic activity of the cell. In one embodiment, the cells may be used in adoptive T cell transfer. For example, in some embodiments, the cell is modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Inhibition of DOK in T cells used in adoptive T cell transfer increases cytolytic activity of the T cells and thus may be used in the treatment of a variety of conditions, including cancer, infection, and immune disorders.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2024Publication date: September 19, 2024Inventors: Steven M.
