Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for the isolation of lymphocytes (in particular ?? T cells) from a non-haematopoietic tissue sample comprising the steps of culturing a non-haematopoietic tissue sample which is an intact biopsy obtained from a non-haematopoietic tissue in the presence of Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and Interleukin-15 (IL-15); and collecting a population of lymphocytes cultured from the non-haematopoietic tissue sample. Methods of subsequent expansion are provided, as well as populations of isolated cells obtained by the method and uses thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to methods for expanding ?? T cells comprising preparing a composition enriched for ?? T cells and culturing the composition in the presence of feeder cells. Also provided is a method for engineering ?? T cells comprising preparing a composition enriched for ?? T cells, transducing the composition to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specific for a tumour associated antigen and culturing the transduced composition to expand the engineered ?? T cells. Also provided are expanded and engineered ?? T cells produced according to the described methods, which find utility in adoptive T cell therapies, chimeric receptor therapies and the like.
