展示多样化嵌合抗原受体库的合成免疫细胞文库作为一种强效的癌症免疫疗法

Cancer immunotherapies rely on one or few specific tumour-associated antigens.

However, the adaptive immune system relies on a large and diverse repertoire of antibodies for antigen recognition.

Here we report the development and applicability of libraries of immune cells displaying diverse repertoires of chimaeric antigen receptors (CARs) that can recognize non-self antigens and display antigen-dependent clonal expansion, with the expanded population of tumour-specific effector cells leading to long-lasting antitumour responses in mouse models of epithelial tumours.

The intravenous injection of synthetic libraries of murine CARs on TET2 - T cells led to robust immunological memory and the recognition of mutated or evolved tumours, owing to the maintenance of CAR diversity. Off-the-shelf libraries of 10 6 murine or human CAR clones displayed on genetically modified human NK-92 cancer cells completely eliminated established tumours in mice with murine xenografts and patient-derived xenografts. Synthetically generated CAR libraries may aid the discovery of new CARs and the development of immunotherapies.
