Abstract: A composition comprising a cell or a population thereof, wherein the cell comprises a polynucleotide encoding an antibody or a fragment thereof that binds CD269 (BCMA), wherein the binding to CD269 (BCMA) disrupts the interaction between CD269 and its native ligands (BAFF and APRIL). Also disclosed is treatment of plasma cell-mediated diseases such as multiple myeloma and autoimmune diseases.

Abstract: An isolated chimeric antigen receptor polypeptide (CAR), wherein the CAR comprises an extracellular antigen-binding domain, comprising an antibody or antibody fragment that binds a human CXC chemokine receptor type 5 (CXCR5) protein. Also disclosed is a nucleic acid molecule encoding the CAR of the invention, a genetically modified immune cell, preferably a T cell, expressing the CAR of the invention and the use of said cell in the treatment of a medical disorder associated with the presence of pathogenic cells expressing CXCR5, preferably pathogenic mature B cells and/or memory B cells, and/or pathogenic T cells and/or T follicular helper cells, in particular mature B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL), T cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, or autoantibody-dependent autoimmune disease, preferably selected from systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or rheumatoid arthritis.
