Provided herein are methods for preparing, producing, processing, culturing, isolating, of making cells suitable for immune or cell therapy, and for their use in cell therapy. Further provided are methods for treatment of a cancer patient with such cells.

Provided are isolated TCRs, TCR-like molecules, and portions thereof that bind to phosphopeptide-HLA-A2 complexes. The isolated TCRs, TCR-like molecules, or portions are optionally soluble TCRs, TCR-like molecules, or portions. Also provided are isolated nucleic acids encoding the disclosed TCRs, TCR-like molecules, or portions; host cells that contain the disclosed TCRs, TCR-like molecules, or portions; pharmaceutical compositions that include the disclosed TCRs, TCR-like molecules, portions, nucleic acids, and/or T cells; kits; and methods of using the same.

The present invention relates to an immunocyte having higher cytotoxic activity, and a pharmaceutical composition for NK cell therapies, for which high effect can be expected. The present invention provides a cell population including CCR5-positive, CCR6-positive, CXCR3-positive, and CD3-negative cells. The present invention provides the cell population, wherein the CCR5-positive, CCR6-positive, CXCR3-positive, and CD3-negative cells further highly express CD11c. The present invention provides a CCR5-positive, CCR6-positive, CXCR3-positive, and CD3-negative cell, which infiltrates into a solid tumor. The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition containing such a cell population and a pharmaceutically acceptable additive. The present invention further provides a method for producing the aforementioned cell population.

Disclosed herein are engineered cells and/or hypoimmunogenic cells including engineered and/or hypoimmunogenic stem cells, engineered and/or hypoimmunogenic cells differentiated therefrom, engineered and/or hypoimmunogenic CAR-T cells (primary or differentiated from engineered and/or hypoimmunogenic stem cells) and related methods of their use and generation. Provided herein are engineered and/or hypoimmunogenic cells exhibiting reduced expression of MHC class I and/or MHC class II human leukocyte antigens and T-cell receptors. In some embodiments, such cells also exogenously express one or more tolerogenic factors such as CD47 and one or more chimeric antigen receptors (CAR)s.

The present invention relates to humanized antibodies that specifically bind to human BTN3A and their use in treating cancer and infectious disorders.

The present invention concerns methods and compositions for immunotherapy employing a modified T cell comprising a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). In particular aspects, CAR-expressing T-cells are producing using electroporation in conjunction with a transposon-based integration system to produce a population of CAR-expressing cells that require minimal ex vivo expansion or that can be directly administered to patients for disease (e.g., cancer) treatment.

The present invention relates to the use of immunogenic peptides comprising a T-cell epitope derived from an allograft antigen and a redox motif such as C-(X)2-[CST] (SEQ ID NO: 18) or [CST]-(X)2-C(SEQ ID NO: 19) in the prevention and/or treatment of allograft rejection and in the manufacture of medicaments therefore.

Herein are provided anti-EGFR single domain antibodies (sdAb) prepared by immunizing a llama with recombinant human EGFRvIII. VHH antibodies specific to EGFR were isolated. The example antibodies initially produced comprise CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 sequences corresponding, respectively to SEQ NOs: 1-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12, 13-15, 16-18, 19-21, 22-24, 25-27, 28-30, 31-33, 34-36, 37-39, 40-42, 43-45, and 46-48; and related sequences, including humanized variants. Also provided are multivalent antibodies comprising any one of the sdAbs, including bispecific T-cell engagers, bispecific killer cell engagers (BiKEs), and trispecific killer cell engagers (TriKEs). Also described are chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) for CAR-T therapy comprising any one of the aforementioned sdAbs. Uses of these molecules in the treatment of cancer are also described, in particularly EGFR-high cancers. Hinge lengths may be selected to achieve desired activities, such as high activity or high selectivity for target vs. non-target cells.

This document provides methods and materials involved in treating cancer. For example, chimeric antigen receptor T cells having reduced levels of GM-CSF are provided. Also provided as methods for making and using chimeric antigen receptor T cells having reduced levels of GM-CSF.

Compositions and methods for manufacturing induced immune regulatory cells comprising induced myeloid suppressive cells including MDSCs (myeloid-derived suppressor cells), dendritic cells, macrophages, and subpopulations thereof are provided. Also provided are methods and compositions for further modifying and modulating the induced immune regulatory cells to achieve enhanced therapeutic potential in treating autoimmune disorders, hematological malignancies, solid tumors, viral infections, neurodegenerative disorders, inflammatory conditions, or GvHD.
