Description

Method for evaluating effectiveness of CART cells
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of medical biology, and in particular relates to a preparation method of CART cells.
Background
Chimeric Antigen Receptor-T cell (CAR-T) T cell refers to a T cell that is genetically modified to recognize a specific Antigen of interest in an MHC non-limiting manner and to continuously activate expanded T cells. The international cell therapy association (interna) in 2012 indicates that biological immune cell therapy has become a fourth means for treating tumors besides surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and will become a necessary means for treating tumors in the future. CAR-T cell back-infusion therapy is the most clearly effective form of immunotherapy in current tumor therapy. A large number of studies show that the CAR-T cells can effectively recognize tumor antigens, cause specific anti-tumor immune response and remarkably improve the survival condition of patients.
Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) are a core component of CAR-T, conferring on T cells the ability to recognize tumor antigens in an HLA-independent manner, which enables CAR-engineered T cells to recognize a broader range of targets than native T cell surface receptor TCRs. The basic design of a CAR includes a tumor-associated antigen (TAA) binding region (usually the scFV fragment from the antigen binding region of a monoclonal antibody), an extracellular hinge region, a transmembrane region, and an intracellular signaling region. The choice of antigen of interest is a key determinant for the specificity, efficacy of the CAR and safety of the genetically engineered T cells themselves.
Before clinical experiments, the CART cells need systematic evaluation of drug effect, pharmacokinetics, pharmacology and toxicology, and the safety and effectiveness of the CART cells are comprehensively researched. The present invention systematically describes a CART preclinical efficacy assessment method.
