    Abstract: The present invention pertains to engineered T-cells, method for their preparation and their use as medicament, particularly for immunotherapy. The engineered T-cells of the invention are designed to express both a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) directed against at least one antigen expressed at the surface of a malignant or infected cell, and a secreted inhibitor of regulatory T-cells (Treg). Preferably, such secreted inhibitor is a peptide inhibitor of forkhead/winged helix transcription factor 3 (FoxP3), a specific factor involved into the differentiation of T-cells into regulatory T-cells. The engineered T-cells of the invention direct their immune activity towards specific malignant or infected cells, while at the same time will prevent neighbouring regulatory T-cells from modulating the immune response. The invention opens the way to standard and affordable adoptive immunotherapy strategies, especially for treating or preventing cancer, and bacterial or viral infections.

    Abstract translation: 本发明涉及工程化T细胞,其制备方法及其作为药物的用途,特别是用于免疫治疗。 本发明的工程化T细胞被设计为表达针对在恶性或感染细胞表面表达的至少一种抗原的嵌合抗原受体(CAR)和调节性T细胞(Treg)的分泌抑制剂。 优选地,这种分泌的抑制剂是叉头/翼状螺旋转录因子3(FoxP3)的肽抑制剂,其涉及T细胞分化成调节性T细胞的特异性因子。 本发明的工程化T细胞将其免疫活性指向特定的恶性或感染细胞,同时将阻止相邻的调节性T细胞调节免疫应答。 本发明开启了标准和负担得起的过继性免疫治疗策略的方式,特别是治疗或预防癌症以及细菌或病毒感染。
