    Abstract: Fibronectin type III (FN3) domain antibodies, polynucleotides capable of encoding the FN3 domain antibodies or antigen-binding fragments, cells expressing FN3 domain antibodies or antigen-binding fragments, as well as associated vectors and detectably labeled FN3 domain antibodies or antigen-binding fragments may be used to engineer FN3 domain-targeting chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). Methods of making the FN3 domain antibodies, CARs, and engineered immune cells, and methods of using the engineered immune cells are applicable to treat diseases including cancer.

    Abstract: The present invention pertains to engineered immortalized T-cell lines, method for their preparation and their use as medicament, particularly for immunotherapy. The engineered immortalized T-cell lines of the invention are characterized in that the expression of endogenous T-cell receptors (TCRs) and beta 2-microglobulin (B2M) is inhibited, e.g., by using an endonuclease able to selectively inactivate the TCR and B2M genes in order to render the immortalized T-cells non-alloreactive. In addition, expression of immunosuppressive polypeptide can be performed on those engineered immortalized T-cells in order to prolong the survival of these T-cells in host organisms. Such engineered immortalized T-cells are particularly suitable for allogeneic transplantations, especially because it reduces both the risk of rejection by the host's immune system and the risk of developing graft versus host disease. The invention opens the way to standard and affordable adoptive immunotherapy strategies using immortalized T-cells for treating cancer, infections and auto-immune diseases.

In addition, expression of immunosuppressive polypeptide can be per-formed on those engineered immortalized T-cells in order to prolong the survival of these T-cells in host organisms Such engineered immortalized T-cells are particularly suitable for allogeneic transplantations, especially because it reduces both the risk of rejection by the hosts immune system and the risk of developing graft versus host disease.
