The present invention provides a method of creating a chemically-induced heterodimerizing system having three different components that form a ternary complex by amendment of a chemically induced homodimerizing system, wherein said chemically induced homodimerizing system comprises two components for the homodimerization, wherein the antigen binding domain comprising SEQ ID NO:1 (AB0) is the first component and a small molecule such as caffeine is the second component of the homodimerization, and wherein said AB0 and said small molecule form a complex of AB0/AB0/small molecule. Heterodimerizing systems obtained by said method are also disclosed herein.

The present disclosure generally relates to, inter alia, a class of chimeric switch receptors containing an endodomain of an IL-9 receptor, engineered to modulate transcriptional regulation in a ligand-dependent manner. The disclosure also provides compositions and methods useful for producing such receptors, nucleic acids encoding same, host cells genetically modified with the nucleic acids, as well as methods for modulating gene expression, modulating an activity of a cell, and/or for the treatment of various health conditions or diseases.

The present disclosure provides a heterodimeric, conditionally active chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and a nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding the CAR. The present disclosure provides cells genetically modified to produce the CAR. A CAR of the present disclosure can be used in various methods, which are also provided.

Disclosed herein are chimeric antigen receptor effector cells (CAR-ECs) and CAR-EC switches. The switchable CAR-ECs are generally T cells. The one or more chimeric antigen receptors may recognize a peptidic antigen on the CAR-EC switch. The CAR-ECs and switches may be used for the treatment of a condition in a subject in need thereof.

The invention relates to the regulated expression of a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) within a lentiviral vector. The CAR comprises a hook-binding domain that interacts with a hook, preferably encoded by the same lentiviral vector, which prevents proper processing and release of the CAR to the cell membrane. The invention encompasses vectors, methods of making the vectors, and methods of using them, including medicinal uses. The vectors can be used for administration to humans to induce immune responses and to treat cancers and tumors.

The technology relates in part to methods for controlling the activity or elimination of therapeutic cells using molecular switches that employ distinct heterodimerizer ligands, in conjunction with other multimeric ligands. The technology may be used, for example to activate or eliminate cells used to promote engraftment, to treat diseases or condition, or to control or modulate the activity of therapeutic cells that express chimeric antigen receptors or recombinant T cell receptors.

A fully human antibody targeting GPRC5D and a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising the fully human antibody. A host cell expressing the CAR, such as a CAR-T cell. A use of the fully human antibody, the CAR, and the CAR-T cell in treatment of tumors (such as multiple myeloma).

The present disclosure generally relates to, inter alia, a class of chimeric switch receptors containing an endodomain of an IL-9 receptor, engineered to modulate transcriptional regulation in a ligand-dependent manner. The disclosure also provides compositions and methods useful for producing such receptors, nucleic acids encoding same, host cells genetically modified with the nucleic acids, as well as methods for modulating gene expression, modulating an activity of a cell, and/or for the treatment of various health conditions or diseases.

The present disclosure concerns dosages for the treatment of human patients susceptible to or diagnosed with a disease, such as cancer. Provided are methods for administering chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells. Also provided are compositions and articles of manufacture for use in the methods.
