    摘要: Provided are engineered cells for adoptive therapy, including NK cells and T cells. Also provided are compositions for engineering and producing the cells, compositions containing the cells, and methods for their administration to subjects. In some embodiments, the cells contain genetically engineered antigen receptors that specifically bind to antigens, such as chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and costimulatory receptors. In some embodiments, the cells include receptors targeting multiple antigens. In some embodiments, the cells include repression of one or more gene product, for example, by disruption of a gene encoding the gene product. In some embodiments, a gene encoding an antigen recognized by the engineered antigen receptor is disrupted, reducing the likelihood of targeting of the engineered cells. In some embodiments, the antigen recognized by the engineered antigen receptor is related to a tumor antigen recognized by the engineered antigen receptor.

    摘要: Provided are methods of treatment involving immunotherapy, such as T cell therapy, and administration of a tryptophan metabolism and/or kynurenine pathway modulator. In some embodiments, the method includes a combination therapy that involves administration of engineered T cells, such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-expressing cells, and a tryptophan metabolism and/or kynurenine pathway modulator, such as an inhibitor of an enzyme. Also provided are engineered cells in which the expression of a molecule involved in the kynurenine pathway is modified. Also provided are methods of manufacturing engineered cells, cells, compositions, methods of administration to subjects, nucleic acids and kits for use in the methods. In some aspects, features of the methods and cells provide for increased or improved activity, activity, outcome, function, response, persistence, expansion and/or proliferation of cells for adoptive cell therapy.

    摘要: Provided are methods, kits and compositions for ameliorating toxicity, such as cytokine release syndrome or neurotoxicity, suspected or being induced by or associated with, administration of a therapeutic agent, such as a immunotherapeutic agent targeting T cells and/or genetically engineered T cells, e.g. chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-expressing T cells. The methods involve administering an additional agent, such as an agent having anti-oxidant or anti-inflammatory properties, that modulates immune cells such as by preventing or reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines or stress cytokines and/or promoting differentiation to a neuroprotective phenotype, and/or capable of preventing, blocking or reducing microglial cell activation or function and/or capable of modulating, such as promoting, the activity of NRF2 or a component of an NRF2-regulated pathway, and/or one or more components involved in an antioxidant response element (ARE). The provided methods can be used in connection with or for methods of treating a disease or condition.

    摘要: Provided herein are engineered B cells, such as for adoptive cell therapy. In some aspects, also provided are methods and compositions for engineering and producing the cells, compositions containing the cells, and methods for their administration to subjects. In some embodiments, the cells are engineered to produce and/or secrete an exogenous protein, such as a therapeutic protein, including antibodies and antigen-binding fragments thereof. In some aspects, features of the cells and methods provide for increased or improved activity, efficacy and/or persistence of the cells.
