A patent application (Publication Number: US20240033290A1) discloses a novel gRNA (guide RNA) design for genetic engineering applications. The gRNA includes a targeting domain with specific sequences described in Tables 1-5 or SEQ ID NOs 41-60, 81-90, and 440-775. The gRNA also features complementarity domains, linking domains, and chemically modified nucleotide residues, such as 2'O-methyl moieties, phosphorothioates, and thioPACE moieties. The method outlined in the patent involves producing genetically engineered cells by introducing the gRNA and an RNA-guided nuclease, like CRISPR/Cas nucleases, into cells to create ribonucleoprotein complexes that target specific genomic sites. The genetically engineered cells can be hematopoietic cells, immune effector cells, or T-lymphocytes, with potential applications in treating hematopoietic malignancies.
Furthermore, the patent application describes the resulting genetically engineered cell populations, which exhibit genomic modifications, such as insertions or deletions near targeted sites, affecting the expression of CD7. These modified cells, including hematopoietic stem cells and immune effector cells, can engraft efficiently in recipients and generate differentiated blood cell types. The cell populations may also express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) targeting CD7, potentially useful in treating hematopoietic malignancies. The patent application also includes methods for administering these genetically engineered cells or cell populations to subjects in need, particularly those with hematopoietic malignancies, along with additional treatments targeting CD7.
