摘要:
The present invention generally concerns particular methods and compositions for cancer therapy. In particular embodiments, there methods and compositions related to cells that harbor expression vectors encoding a cytokine and an inducible suicide gene and, optionally, the same or different vector(s) encoding a chimeric antigen receptor and/or a detectable gene product.
摘要:
This invention involves methods and materials for conferring a direct proliferative advantage on a genetically modified subpopulation of cells. Selection is then accomplished by exerting a positive selective stimulus on the engineered cells rather than a negative pressure on nonengineered cells.
