Gene-edited til composition with enhanced ifn-? secretion
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11866688B2) discloses a gene-edited tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) composition designed for therapeutic purposes. The composition includes a therapeutic population of gene-edited TILs with silenced or reduced expression of immune checkpoint genes PD-1 and TIGIT, resulting in increased IFN-? secretion by at least five-fold compared to non-expanded TILs. The composition also contains a cryopreservant to maintain the viability of the gene-edited TILs.
Furthermore, the patent claims specify that the gene-edited TIL composition is capable of exhibiting IFN-? secretion greater than 1000 pg/ml, with the secretion levels measured in vitro using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The therapeutic population of gene-edited TILs is derived from TILs obtained from various cancer types, including melanoma, ovarian cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, and others. The composition is intended to be cryopreserved for long-term storage and future therapeutic applications, highlighting its potential in cancer immunotherapy.
