More Information
Summary:Provided herein are compositions and methods for the treatment of a disease, such as cancer, using a chimeric antigen receptor or genetically-modified cells comprising a chimeric antigen receptor having specificity for CD20. The invention provides polynucleotides encoding such chimeric antigen receptors, and genetically-modified cells comprising such chimeric antigen receptors. Also provided are methods for making such genetically-modified cells and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same. The invention further provides methods for treating a disease (e.g., cancer) in a subject by administering such genetically-modified cells or compositions. The main embodiments concern CARs with an scFv specific for CD20, the hinge and transmembrane domains from CD8, the costimulatory cytoplasmic or signalling domain from co-stimulatory molecules Novell (N1) or Novel6 (N6) and the CD3zeta intracellular signaling domain.
