Camel single-domain monoclonal antibodies that specifically bind human and mouse mesothelin are described. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and antibody conjugates based on the mesothelin-specific antibodies are also described. The disclosed CAR T cells, mesothelin-specific antibodies and conjugates thereof can be used, for example, in the diagnosis or treatment of mesothelin-positive cancers.

The present invention relates, in part, to, chimeric proteins which include the extracellular domain of colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) and their use in the treatment of diseases, such as immunotherapies for cancer and/or an inflammatory disease.

The present invention relates, in part, to, chimeric proteins which include the extracellular domain of colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) and their use in the treatment of diseases, such as immunotherapies for cancer and/or an inflammatory disease.

This disclosure relates to compositions and methods for treating cancer using armored chimeric antigen receptor cells.

The present invention relates to, inter alia, combinations of compositions which include chimeric proteins that find use in methods for treating disease, such as immunotherapies for cancer and autoimmunity.

This invention describes a novel CRISPR/Cas9 target identification platform permitting the discovery of novel genes and pathways involved in the ability of T cells and NK cells to react against and generate an anti-tumor response.

Methods and compositions are provided for reversibly localizing proteins to the exterior part of the cell surface. Compositions provided herein can include nucleic acids that encode polypeptides of interest and the ligand binding domain (LBD) of a nuclear hormone receptor. Medical applications are provided, including controlling the toxicity of CAR T cells.

The disclosure relates to a BCMA-targeting chimeric antigen receptor and uses thereof. Specifically, the disclosure provides a polynucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of: (1) a polynucleotide sequence comprising, linked in sequence, a sequence encoding an anti-BCMA single chain antibody, a sequence encoding the hinge region of human CD8α, a sequence encoding the transmembrane region of human CD8, a sequence encoding the intracellular domain of human 41BB, a sequence encoding the intracellular domain of human CD3ζ and optionally a sequence encoding a fragment of EGFR comprising the extracellular domain III and the extracellular domain IV; and (2) a complementary sequence of the polynucleotide sequence of (1). The disclosure further provides corresponding fusion proteins and vectors comprising the coding sequence, as well as uses of the fusion proteins, coding sequences and vectors.

This invention describes a novel CRISPR/Cas9 target identification platform permitting the discovery of novel genes and pathways involved in the ability of T cells and NK cells to react against and generate an anti-tumor response.

The present disclosure relates to bivalent chimeric engulfment receptors have dual specificity, host cells modified to include bilvalent chimeric engulfment receptor molecules, and methods of making and using such receptor molecules and modified cells.
