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.

Provided are monoclonal antibodies that detect CD19 CAR-modified immune cells and CAR-modified immune cells irrespective of the tumor associated antigen they target. Methods of using these functional monoclonal antibodies include, but are not limited to, detection, quantification, activation, and selective propagation of CAR-modified immune cells.

The present invention provides a cell which co-expresses a first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and second CAR at the cell surface, each CAR comprising an antigen-binding domain, wherein the antigen-binding domain of the first CAR binds to CD19 and the antigen-binding domain of the second CAR binds to CD22.

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for generating a modified T cell with a nucleic acid capable of downregulating endogenous gene expression selected from the group consisting of TCR chain, TCR chain, beta-2 microglobulin, a HLA molecule, CTLA-4, PD1, and FAS and further comprising a nucleic acid encoding a modified T cell receptor (TCR) comprising affinity for a surface antigen on a target cell or an electroporated nucleic acid encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Also included are methods and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the modified T cell for adoptive therapy and treating a condition, such as an autoimmune disease.

Disclosed herein is a genetically-modified cell comprising in its genome a modified human T cell receptor alpha constant region gene, wherein the cell has reduced cell-surface expression of the endogenous T cell receptor. The present disclosure further relates to methods for producing such a genetically-modified cell, and to methods of using such a cell for treating a disease in a subject.

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.

The invention includes compositions comprising a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specific for an GD T Cell receptor (anti-GD TCR CAR), vectors comprising the same, compositions comprising anti-GD TCR CAR vectors packaged in viral particles, and recombinant T cells or other effector cells comprising the anti-GD TCR CAR of the invention. The invention also includes methods of making a genetically modified T cell expressing an anti-GD TCR CAR wherein the expressed CAR comprises an extracellular domain that binds to GD T cells or to cells expressing a GD TCR.

There are provided herein, inter alia, complexes, compositions and methods for the delivery of nucleic acid into a cell in vivo. The complexes, compositions and methods may facilitate complexation, protection, delivery and release of oligonucleotides and polyanionic cargos into target cells, tissues, and organs both in vitro and in vivo.

Provided herein are T cells expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeted to B cell activating factor receptor (BAFF-R). The CAR targeted to BAFF-R (BAFF-R CAR) described herein includes a domain that binds BAFF-R. Methods of making and using the BAFF-R CAR are also provided.

The present invention includes compositions and methods for modifying a T cell with a nucleic acid encoding a switch molecule comprising an extracellular domain comprising a membrane receptor or fragment thereof and an intracellular domain comprising a signaling receptor or fragment thereof. In one aspect, a method comprises introducing a nucleic acid encoding a switch molecule and a nucleic acid encoding a soluble fusion protein and/or a nucleic acid encoding a bispecific antibody into a population of cells comprising T cells, wherein the T cells transiently expresses the switch molecule and soluble fusion protein or bispecific antibody. In other aspect, compositions of T cells and methods of treating a disease or condition, such as cancer or an autoimmune disease, are also included.
