Definitions
- This application relates to the field of biomedicine, in particular to a universal CAR-T cell targeting GD2 and its preparation method and application.
- Ganglioside GD2 is a glycolipid compound rich in sugar chains, which is an important part of the cell membrane of the nervous system and belongs to the group of ganglioside sphingolipids. GD2 antigen is expressed on the surface of neuroectodermal tumors, including neuroblastoma, melanoma, osteosarcoma, glioma and other tumors. Among them, neuroblastoma (neuroblastoma, NB) is an embryonal tumor of the postganglionic sympathetic nervous system and is the most common extracranial solid malignant tumor in children. The current treatment options are surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. NB has early onset, high degree of malignancy and poor prognosis.
- Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma is a highly aggressive glioma that occurs in the brainstem. It usually occurs in children aged 5 to 9 years. The prognosis is extremely poor, and less than 10% of children survive more than 2 years.
- H3K27M mutation is currently a relatively cutting-edge research hotspot in the field of glioma.
- H3K27M-mutated diffuse midline gliomas mostly occur in children and occasionally in adults. The tumor often grows infiltratively and often invades the thalamus, medulla oblongata, and spinal cord, and the prognosis of patients is extremely poor. Therefore, it is urgent to find new treatment methods to reduce the mortality of related cancer patients.
- general-purpose CAR T cells are T cells isolated from healthy donors, and the prepared CAR-T cells have high expansion efficiency and strong vitality; at the same time, allogeneic general-purpose CAR-T cells can The off-the-shelf supply greatly reduces the preparation cost and shortens the preparation cycle.
- Universal CAR T cells are T cells isolated from healthy donors.
- the prepared CAR-T cells not only have high expansion efficiency and strong vitality, but also increase the positive rate of infection.
- universal CAR-T also faces graft-versus-host Problems with disease (GVHD) and immune rejection.
- GVHD graft-versus-host Problems with disease
- the CRISPR/Cas9 system is the most commonly used gene editing method, which can be used to generate T cells deficient in TCR and HLA class I molecules, and reduce the immune rejection immune response caused by allogeneic cell therapy.
- Universal CAR-T not only expands the recognition range of antigens, but also can change the immunosuppressive microenvironment through gene knockout, and is applied to the treatment of malignant hematological tumors and solid tumors.
- the purpose of the present invention is to prepare a general-purpose CAR-T cell targeting GD2, which recognizes tumor cell surface antigens and simultaneously knocks out the TCR and HLA-A genes on the cell surface, so as to improve the anti-tumor effect of CAR-T cells and prolong Cell survival time while reducing the multiple effects of immune rejection induced by allogeneic cell therapy.
- the present application provides an immune effector cell, wherein the function of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and major histocompatibility complex (MHCI, MHCII) in the immune effector cell is inhibited in the cell, And the immune effector cells comprise a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting GD2.
