Reprogramming T lymphocytes for melanoma adoptive immunotherapy by T-cell receptor gene transfer with lentiviral vectors.
T-cell receptor (TCR) gene transfer for cancer immunotherapy is limited by the availability of large numbers of tumor-specific T cells. TCR alpha and beta chains were isolated from a highly lytic HLA-A2-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) clone recognizing the melanoma-associated Melan-A/MART-1 antigen and inserted into a lentiviral vector carrying a bidirectional promoter capable of robust...
متن کاملAdoptive immunotherapy in chimeras with donor lymphocytes.
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation has a well-defined indication in the treatment of hematological malignancies. The beneficial immune effect of allogeneic marrow transplantation has long been known, but only recently have methods been developed to separate the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect from graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Animal experiments have shown that lymphocytes from the mar...
متن کاملGenetic Engineering of T Lymphocytes for Cancer Immunotherapy
T lymphocytes can be rendered specific against a wide range of antigens by the genetic transfer of a chimeric receptor, a fusion between the antigen-binding domain of an antibody and the signalling domain of a T cell receptor. The use of such chimeric T lymphocytes has shown promising results for cancer therapy. Previous experiments in our laboratory have shown low rates of gene transfer using ...
متن کاملTargeting p53 for adoptive T-cell immunotherapy.
p53 gene mutations occur in most human cancers and result in an altered protein product that accumulates within the cell. Although the observed endogenous human CTL response to p53 is weak, high-affinity, human p53-specific CTLs have been generated from HLA A2.1 transgenic mice immunized with human CTL epitope peptides. In this study, we examine the ability of HLA A2.1-restricted and human p53-...
متن کاملAdoptive T Cell Immunotherapy for Cancer
Harnessing the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells has been the central goal of anti-cancer immunotherapy. In recent years, there has been an increased interest in optimizing this technology in order to make it a clinically feasible treatment. One of the main treatment modalities within cancer immunotherapy has been adoptive T cell therapy (ACT). Using this approach, tumor-specif...
