Chimeric antigen receptor (car) for 5t4 positive cells
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11987639B2) discloses a polynucleotide encoding a 5T4 (NTRKR1) specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) designed for engineered immune cells. The CAR includes an extracellular ligand binding-domain with specific variable heavy and light chains, a CD8a hinge, and a CD8a transmembrane domain. The cytoplasmic domain comprises a CD3 zeta signaling domain and a co-stimulatory domain from 4-1 BB. The engineered immune cell expressing this CAR is derived from various T-lymphocytes and is engineered to suppress the expression of a T-cell receptor (TCR). Additionally, the cell can be mutated to resist immune suppressive or chemotherapy drugs.
Furthermore, the engineered immune cell's components, such as the hinge, transmembrane domain, signaling domain, and co-stimulatory domain, have specific amino acid sequences detailed in the patent claims. The extracellular ligand binding-domain and the 5T4 specific CAR also have defined amino acid sequences. The patent emphasizes the precise design and composition of the engineered immune cell expressing the 5T4 specific CAR, highlighting the importance of these specific sequences for its functionality and effectiveness in targeting 5T4 (NTRKR1) antigens on the cell surface membrane. This patent provides a detailed blueprint for creating engineered immune cells with enhanced capabilities for targeted therapy.
