Abstract: The present invention generally embraces the treatment of diseases by targeting cells expressing an antigen on the cell surface. In particular the invention relates to recombinant antigen receptors and uses thereof. T cells engineered to express such antigen receptors are useful in the treatment of diseases characterized by expression of one or more antigens bound by the antigen receptors.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for enhancing the efficiency of therapies involving immune effector cells such as T cells engineered to express antigen receptors such as T cell receptors (TCRs) or chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). It is demonstrated herein that such antigen receptor-engineered immune effector cells, even when provided to a subject in sub-therapeutic amounts, are extremely effective in the treatment of cancer diseases, even those cancer diseases that are known to be difficult to treat with antigen receptor-engineered immune effector cells, such as solid tumors or cancers, if additionally target antigen for the antigen receptor is provided to the subject. Immune effector cells may be engineered ex vivo or in vitro and subsequently the immune effector cells may be administered to a subject in need of treatment, or immune effector cells may be engineered in vivo in a subject in need of treatment.

Abstract: The invention relates to variants of the alpha subunit of interleukin-2 receptor (IL2R) and interleukin-2 (IL2). In one embodiment, the IL2 variants described herein have amino acid substitutions at the region of IL2 that contacts the alpha (?) subunit of the heterotrimeric IL2 receptor complex, IL2R???, reducing its ability to bind and activate the heterotrimeric receptor complex. Conversely, the corresponding IL2R? variants described herein have amino acid substitutions compensating for such reduced ability of IL2 variants to bind to and activate IL2R???, preferably at amino acid residues contacted by IL2 amino acid residues that are substituted in the IL2 variants described herein.
