Engineered chimeric antigen receptor-expressing T cells for the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma
نویسنده
چکیده
Adoptive cell therapy with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered T cells is under investigation as an approach to restore productive T cell immunosurveillance in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Early findings demonstrate safety of this cell-based therapy and the capacity of CAR-expressing T cells to mediate anti-tumor activity as well as induce endogeneous antitumoral immune responses.

Chimeric antigen receptor engineered-T (CAR-T) cells also named as living drugs, have been recently known as a breakthrough technology and were applied as an adoptive immunotherapy against different types of cancer. They also attracted widespread interest because of the success of B-cell malignancy therapy achieved by anti-CD19 CAR-T cells. Current genetic toolbox enabled the synthesis of CARs ...
متن کاملEngineered Jurkat Cells for Targeting Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen on Prostate Cancer Cells by Nanobody-Based Chimeric Antigen Receptor
Background: Recently, modification of T cells with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) has been an attractive approach for adoptive immunotherapy of cancers. Typically, CARs contain a single-chain variable domain fragment (scFv). Most often, scfvs are derived from a monoclonal antibody of murine origin and may be a trigger for host immune system that leads to the T-cell clearance. Nanobody is a spe...

Background and purpose: In recent years, immunotherapy using chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR T cells) has been considered as a novel and promising treatment for some diseases, especially cancer. The CAR T cell production is a multi-step, complex, time-consuming, and costly process. One of the most important steps in production of CAR T cells is expansion of these cells at appropriate num...

Despite intensive treatment, pancreatic adenocarcinoma still has the worst prognosis among all malignancies. Using clinically relevant models, we demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of adoptively transferred T cells engineered with a carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)- and ERBB2-specific chimeric antigen receptor against pancreatic carcinoma. Targeting CD24, a putative cancer stem cell antigen ex...

Background and Objective: Harnessing immune system and its powerful arm, T lymphocytes, against tumor cells are yielding promising results in cancer immunotherapy. Using two arms of immune system in the designing of engineered T cells expressing chimeric receptors with anti-HER2 nanobody (camelid single domain antibody) seems to be an effective strategy in the targeted cancer therapy. ...
