Engineered t cell with reduced mhc expression and car
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11987628B2) discloses an engineered T cell designed for enhanced therapeutic potential. The engineered T cell is derived from a primary T cell and features reduced expression of B2M, CIITA, and/or T cell receptor (TCR)-alpha compared to control T cells. Additionally, the engineered T cell expresses CD47 from a first exogenous polynucleotide, leading to increased CD47 levels, and a CD22-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) from a second exogenous polynucleotide. The CAR includes specific antigen binding domains, hinge domains, transmembrane domains, costimulatory domains, and intracellular signaling domains, providing a comprehensive approach to targeted therapy.
Furthermore, the patent details the insertion of exogenous polynucleotides encoding CD47 and the CAR into the engineered T cell at specific loci, enhancing the precision and efficacy of the engineered T cell. The engineered T cell also exhibits reduced surface expression of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I antigens, HLA class II antigens, and/or TCR-alpha, potentially minimizing immune rejection responses. The pharmaceutical composition comprising the engineered T cell and a carrier offers a promising therapeutic option for various conditions. The use of viral transduction, particularly lentivirus-based vectors, ensures efficient delivery of the exogenous polynucleotides, further highlighting the innovative approach outlined in the patent. Overall, the patent showcases a novel engineered T cell design with potential applications in targeted immunotherapy and personalized medicine.
