Zusammenfassung
Adoptive transfer (AT) of T cells forced to express tumor-reactive T cell receptor (TCR) genes is an attractive strategy to direct autologous T cell immunity against tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). However, clinical effectiveness has been hampered by limited in vivo persistence. We investigated whether the use of MHC-mismatched T cells would prolong the in vivo persistence of tumor-reactive TCR gene expressing T cells by continuous antigen-driven proliferation via the endogenous potentially alloreactive receptor. Donor-derived CD8+ T cells engineered to express a TCR against a leukemia-associated antigen media…
