Detailed Description
The inventor of the invention has extensively and deeply studied, and through a large amount of screening of targets, the invention unexpectedly discovers an engineered immune cell specifically targeting CD155 for the first time, which can specifically and selectively kill a plurality of tumors and has a remarkable killing effect. On this basis, the present inventors have completed the present invention.
The present invention is representatively illustrated in detail for the engineered immune cells of the present invention, taking CAR-T cells as an example. The engineered immune cells of the invention are not limited to the CAR-T cells described above and below, and the engineered immune cells of the invention have the same or similar technical features and benefits as the CAR-T cells described above and below. Specifically, when the immune cells express the chimeric antigen receptor CAR, the NK cells are identical to T cells (or T cells can replace NK cells); when the immune cell is a T cell, the TCR is identical to the CAR (or the CAR can be replaced with a TCR).
CD155
CD155, also known as PVR, was first discovered to mediate viral entry into cells as a receptor for poliovirus. CD155 is highly expressed in many cancer cells and overexpression of CD155 may induce tumor immune escape.
The present study found that CD155 overexpression promotes tumor cell invasion and migration, and is associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis. As an immunomodulatory molecule, CD155 can bind to the co-stimulatory molecule CD226 and the co-inhibitory molecules TIGIT and CD96, and exert their respective effects of activating NK cells and inhibiting T cells and NK cells, and has a dual function in tumor immunity, while tumor-infiltrating immune cells express reduced CD226 and increased TIGIT. Thus, high expression of CD155 in tumor cells can be used as a key point for tumor therapy.
The research of the invention finds that CD226, TIGIT and CD96 are three receptors known at present as CD155, and TIGIT has the highest affinity to CD155, so based on the research result of the invention, the invention uses TIGIT as the extracellular end part of CAR structure to be more efficient than CD226 and can neutralize the inhibition effect of CD155 when designing CAR-T, thereby achieving two purposes. Meanwhile, CD155 is hardly expressed in normal tissues, but highly expressed in many malignant tumors such as liver cancer, head and neck cancer, melanoma, non-hodgkin's lymphoma, and the like. Is very relevant to disease prognosis. Thus a CAR-T targeting CD155 can be designed or can function in a variety of solid tumors while TIGIT serves as an immune checkpoint and, using its extracellular end designed CAR-T, can bind to CD155, thereby activating CAR intracellular signaling to exert a killing target cell effect while relieving CD155 from its immunosuppressive effect on T cells.
TIGIT extracellular domain protein
The invention unexpectedly discovers that the special TIGIT extracellular domain protein can be specifically combined with CD 155.
TIGIT (also known as WUCAM, Vstm3, VSIG9) is a member of the poliovirus receptor (PVR/nectin family, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. its expression is strictly restricted to lymphocytes, and the highest expression is effector cells and regulatory CD4 + T cell, follicular helper CD4 + T cell, effector CD8 + T cells and natural killer cells (NK). TIGIT may suppress immune cells in various aspects of the cancer immune cycle. First, TIGIT can inhibit NK cell effector function, thereby preventing primary tumor cell death andrelease of cancer cell antigens. Second, TIGIT on T cells can inhibit dendritic cell costimulatory capacity, resulting in decreased cancer antigen presentation and increased anti-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-10. TIGIT can also induce PVR signaling on other cells, such as tumor cells. Third, TIGIT + Tregs or PVR stimulated bone marrow cells can inhibit CD8 + T cell effector function or to CD4 + T cells are polarized. Fourth, TIGIT may inhibit CD8 directly or through Tregs + T cells and prevent the elimination of cancer cells. Blocking the TIGIT-CD155 pathway can promote to reverse the mediated inhibition effect and promote the killing effect of the immune system on the tumor. The invention constructs a chimeric antigen receptor T cell taking a TIGIT extracellular segment as a target, and the TIGIT extracellular segment is connected with a CD8 transmembrane region, a costimulatory factor 4-1BB and an intracellular signal activation sequence CD3zeta to construct a structure of a second-generation CAR, which is used for treating a solid tumor highly expressing a CD155 protein.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the amino acid sequence of the TIGIT extracellular domain protein of the invention is shown in SEQ ID No. 1.

Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CAR)
Chimeric immune antigen receptors (CARs) consist of an extracellular antigen recognition region, usually a scFv (single-chain variable fragment), a transmembrane region, and an intracellular costimulatory signal region. The design of CARs goes through the following process: the first generation CARs had only one intracellular signaling component, CD3 ζ or Fc γ RI molecule, and due to the single intracellular activation domain, it caused only transient T cell proliferation and less cytokine secretion, and did not provide long-term T cell proliferation signaling and sustained in vivo anti-tumor effects, and thus did not achieve good clinical efficacy. The second generation CARs introduce a costimulatory molecule such as CD28, 4-1BB, OX40 and ICOS on the basis of the original structure, and compared with the first generation CARs, the function of the second generation CARs is greatly improved, and the persistence of CAR-T cells and the killing capability of the CAR-T cells on tumor cells are further enhanced. On the basis of the second generation CARs, a plurality of novel immune co-stimulatory molecules such as CD27 and CD134 are connected in series, and the development is three-generation and four-generation CARs.
The extracellular domain of CARs recognizes a specific antigen and subsequently transduces this signal through the intracellular domain, causing activated proliferation, cytolytic toxicity and cytokine secretion of the cell, thereby clearing the target cell. Autologous cells from the patient (or a heterologous donor) are first isolated, activated and genetically engineered to produce immune cells for CAR production, and then injected into the same patient. In this way, the probability of graft versus host disease is very low and antigens are recognized by immune cells in a non-MHC restricted manner.
CAR-immune cell therapy has achieved very high clinical response rates in the treatment of hematological malignancies, which rates were previously unattainable by any therapeutic approach, and have triggered a hot surge of clinical research in the world.
Specifically, the Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) of the invention include an extracellular domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular domain. The extracellular domain includes a target-specific binding element (also referred to as an antigen-binding domain). The intracellular domain includes a costimulatory signaling region and/or a zeta chain moiety. The costimulatory signaling region refers to a portion of the intracellular domain that includes the costimulatory molecule. Costimulatory molecules are cell surface molecules required for efficient response of lymphocytes to antigens, rather than antigen receptors or their ligands.
A linker may be incorporated between the extracellular domain and the transmembrane domain of the CAR, or between the cytoplasmic domain and the transmembrane domain of the CAR. As used herein, the term "linker" generally refers to any oligopeptide or polypeptide that functions to connect a transmembrane domain to an ectodomain or a cytoplasmic domain of a polypeptide chain. The linker may comprise 0-300 amino acids, preferably 2 to 100 amino acids and most preferably 3 to 50 amino acids.
The CARs of the invention, when expressed in T cells, are capable of antigen recognition based on antigen binding specificity. When it binds its associated antigen, it affects the tumor cells, causing the tumor cells to not grow, to be driven to death, or to otherwise be affected, and causing the patient's tumor burden to shrink or be eliminated. The antigen binding domain is preferably fused to an intracellular domain from one or more of the costimulatory molecules and/or the zeta chain. Preferably, the antigen binding domain is fused to the intracellular domain of the 4-1BB signaling domain and/or the CD3zeta signaling domain combination.
As used herein, "antigen binding domain" and "single chain antibody fragment" each refer to an Fab fragment, Fab 'fragment, F (ab') 2 fragment, or single Fv fragment having antigen binding activity. Fv antibodies contain the variable regions of the antibody heavy chain, the variable regions of the light chain, but no constant regions, and have the smallest antibody fragment of the entire antigen binding site. Generally, Fv antibodies also comprise a polypeptide linker between the VH and VL domains and are capable of forming the structures required for antigen binding. The antigen binding domain is typically a scFv (single-chain variable fragment). The size of the scFv is typically 1/6 for a whole antibody. Single chain antibodies are preferably a sequence of amino acids encoded by a single nucleotide chain. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the scFv comprises an antibody, preferably a single chain antibody, that specifically recognizes the tumor highly expressed antigen CD 155.
In a preferred embodiment, the antigen binding portion of the CAR of the invention targets the CD155 antigen. In a preferred embodiment, the antigen binding portion of the CAR of the invention is a TIGIT extracellular domain protein targeting CD 155.
In a preferred embodiment, the TIGIT extracellular segment protein contains variant forms, and the variant has homology of more than or equal to 80%, more than or equal to 85%, more than or equal to 90%, more than or equal to 95%, more than or equal to 98% or more than or equal to 99% with the TIGIT extracellular segment protein sequence table of the wild type.
In the present invention, the TIGIT extracellular domain protein of the present invention also includes conservative variants thereof, which means that at most 10, preferably at most 8, more preferably at most 5, and most preferably at most 3 amino acids are replaced by amino acids with similar or similar properties to form a polypeptide compared with the amino acid sequence of the TIGIT extracellular domain protein of the present invention.
In the present invention, the number of amino acids to be added, deleted, modified and/or substituted is preferably not more than 40%, more preferably not more than 35%, more preferably 1 to 33%, more preferably 5 to 30%, more preferably 10 to 25%, more preferably 15 to 20% of the total number of amino acids in the original amino acid sequence.
In the present invention, the number of the amino acids to be added, deleted, modified and/or substituted is usually 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, preferably 1 to 3, more preferably 1 to 2, and most preferably 1.
For the hinge region and transmembrane region (transmembrane domain), the CAR can be designed to include a transmembrane domain fused to the extracellular domain of the CAR. In one embodiment, a transmembrane domain that is naturally associated with one of the domains in the CAR is used. In some examples, the transmembrane domains may be selected, or modified by amino acid substitutions, to avoid binding such domains to the transmembrane domains of the same or different surface membrane proteins, thereby minimizing interaction with other members of the receptor complex.
The extracellular domain of the CAR of the invention includes an extracellular domain protein of TIGIT, preferably an extracellular domain protein of TIGIT having a specific sequence.
In the present invention, the intracellular domain in the CAR of the invention includes the transmembrane region of CD8, the costimulatory factor of 4-1BB, the signaling domain of CD3 zeta.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the amino acid sequence of the CAR (containing the antigen binding domain of the extracellular segment of TIGIT) is as set forth in SEQ ID No. 6.

chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR-T cells)
As used herein, the terms "CAR-T cell", "CAR-T cell of the invention" all refer to a CAR-T cell according to the sixth aspect of the invention, which can target the CD155 protein, for the treatment of tumors with high expression of CD155, particularly solid tumors.
CAR-T cells have the following advantages over other T cell-based therapies: (1) the action process of the CAR-T cell is not limited by MHC; (2) given that many tumor cells express the same tumor antigen, CAR gene construction for a certain tumor antigen can be widely utilized once it is completed; (3) the CAR can utilize tumor protein antigens and glycolipid non-protein antigens, so that the target range of the tumor antigens is expanded; (4) the use of patient autologous cells reduces the risk of rejection; (5) the CAR-T cells have the function of immunological memory and can survive in vivo for a long time.
In the present invention, the CAR of the invention comprises (i) an extracellular domain comprising the extracellular domain of TIGIT; (ii) optionally a hinge region; (iii) a transmembrane domain; (iv) a co-stimulatory factor; and (v) the signaling domain of CD3 ζ.
Chimeric antigen receptor NK cells (CAR-NK cells)
As used herein, the terms "CAR-NK cell", "CAR-NK cell of the invention" all refer to a CAR-NK cell according to the first aspect of the invention. The CAR-NK cells of the invention can target the CD155 protein for the treatment of tumors with high expression of CD155, in particular solid tumors.
Natural Killer (NK) cells are a major class of immune effector cells that protect the body from viral infection and tumor cell invasion through non-antigen specific pathways. By engineering (genetically modifying) NK cells it is possible to obtain new functions, including the ability to specifically recognize tumor antigens and having an enhanced anti-tumor cytotoxic effect.
CAR-NK cells also have advantages compared to autologous CAR-T cells, such as: (1) directly kills tumor cells by releasing perforin and granzyme, but has no killing effect on normal cells of an organism; (2) they release very small amounts of cytokines and thus reduce the risk of cytokine storm; (3) is easy to be amplified in vitro and can be developed into ready-made products. Otherwise, similar to CAR-T cell therapy.
Exogenous T cell antigen receptor
As used herein, a foreign T cell antigen receptor (TCR) is a TCR that is exogenously transferred into a T cell by means of genetic engineering, using lentivirus or retrovirus as a vector, by cloning the α chain and β chain of the TCR from a tumor-reactive T cell by gene transfer technique.
The exogenous TCR modified T cell can specifically recognize and kill tumor cells, and affinity of the T cell and tumor can be improved and anti-tumor effect can be improved by optimizing affinity of TCR and tumor specific antigen.
Carrier
Nucleic acid sequences encoding the desired molecule can be obtained using recombinant methods known in the art, such as, for example, by screening libraries from cells expressing the gene, by obtaining the gene from vectors known to include the gene, or by direct isolation from cells and tissues containing the gene using standard techniques. Alternatively, the gene of interest may be produced synthetically.
The present invention also provides a vector into which the expression cassette of the present invention is inserted. Vectors derived from retroviruses such as lentiviruses are suitable tools for achieving long-term gene transfer, as they allow long-term, stable integration of the transgene and its propagation in daughter cells. Lentiviral vectors have advantages over vectors derived from oncogenic retroviruses such as murine leukemia virus, in that they can transduce non-proliferating cells such as hepatocytes. They also have the advantage of low immunogenicity.
In brief summary, an expression cassette or nucleic acid sequence of the invention is typically operably linked to a promoter and incorporated into an expression vector. The vector is suitable for replication and integration into eukaryotic cells. Typical cloning vectors contain transcriptional and translational terminators, initial sequences, and promoters that may be used to regulate the expression of the desired nucleic acid sequence.
The expression constructs of the invention may also be used for nucleic acid immunization and gene therapy using standard gene delivery protocols. Methods of gene delivery are known in the art. See, for example, U.S. Pat. nos. 5,399,346, 5,580,859, 5,589,466, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. In another embodiment, the invention provides a gene therapy vector.
The nucleic acid can be cloned into many types of vectors. For example, the nucleic acid can be cloned into vectors including, but not limited to, plasmids, phagemids, phage derivatives, animal viruses, and cosmids. Specific vectors of interest include expression vectors, replication vectors, probe generation vectors, and sequencing vectors.
Further, the expression vector may be provided to the cell in the form of a viral vector. Viral vector technology is well known in the art and is described, for example, in Sambrook et al (2001, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York) and other virology and Molecular biology manuals. Viruses that may be used as vectors include, but are not limited to, retroviruses, adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, herpes viruses, and lentiviruses. Typically, suitable vectors comprise an origin of replication functional in at least one organism, a promoter sequence, a convenient restriction enzyme site, and one or more selectable markers (e.g., WO 01/96584; WO 01/29058; and U.S. Pat. No. 6,326,193).
Many virus-based systems have been developed for gene transfer into mammalian cells. For example, retroviruses provide a convenient platform for gene delivery systems. The selected gene can be inserted into a vector and packaged into a retroviral particle using techniques known in the art. The recombinant virus can then be isolated and delivered to the subject cells in vivo or ex vivo. Many retroviral systems are known in the art. In some embodiments, an adenoviral vector is used. Many adenoviral vectors are known in the art. In one embodiment, a lentiviral vector is used.
Additional promoter elements, such as enhancers, may regulate the frequency of transcription initiation. Typically, these are located in the 30-110bp region upstream of the start site, although many promoters have recently been shown to also contain functional elements downstream of the start site. The spacing between promoter elements is often flexible so that promoter function is maintained when the elements are inverted or moved relative to one another. In the thymidine kinase (tk) promoter, the spacing between promoter elements can be increased by 50bp apart, before activity begins to decrease. Depending on the promoter, it appears that the individual elements may function cooperatively or independently to initiate transcription.
An example of a suitable promoter is the immediate early Cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter sequence. The promoter sequence is a strong constitutive promoter sequence capable of driving high level expression of any polynucleotide sequence operably linked thereto. Another example of a suitable promoter is elongation growth factor-1 α (EF-1 α). However, other constitutive promoter sequences may also be used, including, but not limited to, the simian virus 40(SV40) early promoter, the mouse mammary cancer virus (MMTV), the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Long Terminal Repeat (LTR) promoter, the MoMuLV promoter, the avian leukemia virus promoter, the Epstein-Barr (Epstein-Barr) virus immediate early promoter, the rous sarcoma virus promoter, and human gene promoters such as, but not limited to, the actin promoter, myosin promoter, heme promoter, and creatine kinase promoter. Further, the present invention should not be limited to the use of constitutive promoters. Inducible promoters are also contemplated as part of the invention. The use of an inducible promoter provides a molecular switch that is capable of turning on expression of a polynucleotide sequence operably linked to the inducible promoter when such expression is desired, or turning off expression when expression is not desired. Examples of inducible promoters include, but are not limited to, the metallothionein promoter, the glucocorticoid promoter, the progesterone promoter, and the tetracycline promoter.
To assess the expression of the CAR polypeptide or portion thereof, the expression vector introduced into the cells can also comprise either or both of a selectable marker gene or a reporter gene to facilitate identification and selection of expressing cells from a population of cells sought to be transfected or infected by the viral vector. In other aspects, the selectable marker may be carried on a single piece of DNA and used in a co-transfection procedure. Both the selectable marker and the reporter gene may be flanked by appropriate regulatory sequences to enable expression in a host cell. Useful selectable markers include, for example, antibiotic resistance genes, such as neo and the like.
Reporter genes are used to identify potentially transfected cells and to evaluate the functionality of regulatory sequences. Typically, the reporter gene is the following: which is not present in or expressed by the recipient organism or tissue and which encodes a polypeptide whose expression is clearly indicated by some readily detectable property, such as enzymatic activity. After the DNA has been introduced into the recipient cell, the expression of the reporter gene is assayed at an appropriate time. Suitable reporter genes may include genes encoding luciferase, beta-galactosidase, chloramphenicol acetyltransferase, secreted alkaline phosphatase, or green fluorescent protein (e.g., Ui-Tei et al, 2000FEBS Letters479: 79-82). Suitable expression systems are well known and can be prepared using known techniques or obtained commercially. Generally, the construct with the minimum of 5 flanking regions showing the highest level of reporter gene expression was identified as the promoter. Such promoter regions can be linked to reporter genes and used to evaluate the ability of an agent to modulate promoter-driven transcription.
Methods for introducing and expressing genes into cells are known in the art. In the context of expression vectors, the vector may be readily introduced into a host cell by any method known in the art, e.g., mammalian, bacterial, yeast or insect cells. For example, the expression vector may be transferred into the host cell by physical, chemical or biological means.
Physical methods for introducing polynucleotides into host cells include calcium phosphate precipitation, lipofection, particle bombardment, microinjection, electroporation, and the like. Methods for producing cells comprising vectors and/or exogenous nucleic acids are well known in the art. See, e.g., Sambrook et al (2001, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, New York). A preferred method for introducing the polynucleotide into a host cell is calcium phosphate transfection.
Biological methods for introducing a polynucleotide of interest into a host cell include the use of DNA and RNA vectors. Viral vectors, particularly retroviral vectors, have become the most widely used method for inserting genes into mammalian, e.g., human, cells. Other viral vectors may be derived from lentiviruses, poxviruses, herpes simplex virus I, adenoviruses, adeno-associated viruses, and the like. See, for example, U.S. patent nos. 5,350,674 and 5,585,362.
Chemical means of introducing polynucleotides into host cells include colloidal dispersion systems such as macromolecular complexes, nanocapsules, microspheres, beads; and lipid-based systems including oil-in-water emulsions, micelles, mixed micelles, and liposomes. Exemplary colloidal systems for use as delivery vehicles in vitro and in vivo are liposomes (e.g., artificial membrane vesicles).
In the case of non-viral delivery systems, an exemplary delivery vehicle is a liposome. Lipid formulations are contemplated for use to introduce nucleic acids into host cells (ex vivo or in vivo). In another aspect, the nucleic acid can be associated with a lipid. The nucleic acid associated with the lipid may be encapsulated in the aqueous interior of the liposome, dispersed within the lipid bilayer of the liposome, attached to the liposome via a linker molecule associated with both the liposome and the oligonucleotide, entrapped in the liposome, complexed with the liposome, dispersed in a solution comprising the lipid, mixed with the lipid, associated with the lipid, contained as a suspension in the lipid, contained in or complexed with a micelle, or otherwise associated with the lipid. The lipid, lipid/DNA or lipid/expression vector associated with the composition is not limited to any particular structure in solution. For example, they may be present in bilayer structures, either as micelles or with a "collapsed" structure. They may also simply be dispersed in a solution, possibly forming aggregates that are not uniform in size or shape. Lipids are fatty substances, which may be naturally occurring or synthetic lipids. For example, lipids include fatty droplets that occur naturally in the cytoplasm as well as such compounds that contain long-chain aliphatic hydrocarbons and their derivatives such as fatty acids, alcohols, amines, amino alcohols, and aldehydes.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the vector is a lentiviral vector.
Preparation
The invention provides a CAR according to the first aspect of the invention, a nucleic acid molecule according to the second aspect of the invention, a vector according to the third aspect of the invention, or a vector according to the fourth aspect of the inventionThe host cell, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient. In one embodiment, the formulation is a liquid formulation. Preferably, the formulation is an injection. Preferably, the CAR-T cells are present in the formulation at a concentration of 1X 10 5 -1×10 8 One cell/ml, preferably 1X 10 6 -1×10 7 One cell/ml, more preferably 1X 10 6 -5×10 6 Individual cells/ml. In one embodiment, the formulation may include a buffer such as neutral buffered saline, sulfate buffered saline, and the like; carbohydrates such as glucose, mannose, sucrose or dextran, mannitol; a protein; polypeptides or amino acids such as glycine; an antioxidant; chelating agents such as EDTA or glutathione; adjuvants (e.g., aluminum hydroxide); and a preservative. The formulations of the present invention are preferably formulated for intravenous administration.
Therapeutic applications
The invention includes therapeutic applications of cells (e.g., T cells) transduced with Lentiviral Vectors (LV) encoding expression cassettes of the invention. The transduced T cells can target a marker CD155 protein of tumor cells, and the T cells are synergistically activated to cause cellular immune response, so that the killing efficiency of the T cells on solid tumors is remarkably improved.
Accordingly, the present invention also provides a method of stimulating a T cell-mediated immune response to a target cell population or tissue of a mammal comprising the steps of: administering to the mammal the CAR-T cells of the invention.
In one embodiment, the invention includes a class of cell therapy in which autologous T cells (or allogeneic donors) from a patient are isolated, activated, genetically engineered to produce CAR-T cells, and subsequently injected into the same patient. In this way, the probability of graft versus host disease is very low and antigens are recognized by T cells in a non-MHC restricted manner. Furthermore, one CAR-T can treat all cancers expressing this antigen. Unlike antibody therapy, CAR-T cells are able to replicate in vivo, resulting in long-term persistence that can lead to sustained tumor control.
In one embodiment, the CAR-T cells of the invention can undergo robust in vivo T cell expansion and can persist for an extended amount of time. Additionally, the CAR-mediated immune response can be part of an adoptive immunotherapy step, wherein the CAR-modified T cell induces an immune response specific to the antigen binding domain in the CAR. For example, CAR-T cells of CD155 elicit a specific immune response against cells expressing CD 155.
Although the data disclosed herein specifically disclose lentiviral vectors comprising the extracellular segment, hinge and transmembrane regions, and the 4-1BB and CD3zeta signaling domains of TIGIT against CD155, the invention should be construed to include any number of variations to each of the construct components.
Treatable cancers include tumors that are not vascularized or have not substantially vascularized, as well as vascularized tumors. The cancer may comprise a non-solid tumor (such as a hematological tumor, e.g., leukemia and lymphoma) or may comprise a solid tumor. The types of cancer treated with the CARs of the invention include, but are not limited to, carcinomas, blastomas and sarcomas, and certain leukemias or lymphoid malignancies, benign and malignant tumors, such as sarcomas, carcinomas and melanomas. Adult tumors/cancers and pediatric tumors/cancers are also included.
Hematologic cancers are cancers of the blood or bone marrow. Examples of hematologic (or hematological) cancers include leukemias, including acute leukemias (such as acute lymphocytic leukemia, acute myelogenous leukemia and myeloblastic, promyelocytic, granulo-monocytic, and erythroleukemia), chronic leukemias (such as chronic myelogenous (granulocytic) leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia), polycythemia vera, lymphomas, hodgkin's disease, non-hodgkin's lymphoma (indolent and higher order forms), multiple myeloma, waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia, heavy chain disease, myelodysplastic syndrome, hairy cell leukemia, and myelodysplasia.
A solid tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue that generally does not contain cysts or fluid areas. Solid tumors can be benign or malignant. Different types of solid tumors are named for the cell types that form them (such as sarcomas, carcinomas, and lymphomas). Examples of solid tumors such as sarcomas and carcinomas include fibrosarcoma, myxosarcoma, liposarcoma mesothelioma, lymphoid malignancies, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer.
The CAR-modified T cells of the invention may also be used as a type of vaccine for ex vivo immunization and/or in vivo therapy of mammals. Preferably, the mammal is a human.
For ex vivo immunization, at least one of the following occurs in vitro prior to administration of the cells into a mammal: i) expanding the cell, ii) introducing a nucleic acid encoding the CAR into the cell, and/or iii) cryopreserving the cell.
Ex vivo procedures are well known in the art and are discussed more fully below. Briefly, cells are isolated from a mammal (preferably a human) and genetically modified (i.e., transduced or transfected in vitro) with a vector expressing a CAR disclosed herein. The CAR-modified cells can be administered to a mammalian recipient to provide a therapeutic benefit. The mammalian recipient can be a human, and the CAR-modified cells can be autologous with respect to the recipient. Alternatively, the cells may be allogeneic, syngeneic (syngeneic), or xenogeneic with respect to the recipient.
In addition to using cell-based vaccines for ex vivo immunization, the present invention also provides compositions and methods for in vivo immunization to elicit an immune response against an antigen in a patient.
The invention provides a method of treating a tumor comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a CAR-modified T cell of the invention.
The CAR-modified T cells of the invention can be administered alone or as a pharmaceutical composition in combination with diluents and/or with other components or other cytokines or cell populations. Briefly, a pharmaceutical composition of the invention may comprise a target cell population as described herein, in combination with one or more pharmaceutically or physiologically acceptable carriers, diluents, or excipients. Such compositions may include buffers such as neutral buffered saline, sulfate buffered saline, and the like; carbohydrates such as glucose, mannose, sucrose or dextran, mannitol; a protein; polypeptides or amino acids such as glycine; an antioxidant; chelating agents such as EDTA or glutathione; adjuvants (e.g., aluminum hydroxide); and a preservative. The compositions of the present invention are preferably formulated for intravenous administration.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be administered in a manner suitable for the disease to be treated (or prevented). The number and frequency of administration will be determined by such factors as the condition of the patient, and the type and severity of the patient's disease-although the appropriate dosage may be determined by clinical trials.
When referring to an "immunologically effective amount", "an anti-tumor effective amount", "a tumor-inhibiting effective amount", or a "therapeutic amount", the precise amount of the composition of the invention to be administered can be determined by a physician, taking into account the age, weight, tumor size, extent of infection or metastasis, and individual differences in the condition of the patient (subject). It can be generally pointed out that: pharmaceutical compositions comprising T cells described herein can be in the range of 10 4 To 10 9 Dosage of individual cells/kg body weight, preferably 10 5 To 10 6 Doses of individual cells per kg body weight (including all integer values within those ranges) were administered. The T cell composition may also be administered multiple times at these doses. Cells can be administered by using infusion techniques well known in immunotherapy (see, e.g., Rosenberg et al, New Eng.J.of Med.319:1676, 1988). Optimal dosages and treatment regimens for a particular patient can be readily determined by those skilled in the medical arts by monitoring the patient for signs of disease and adjusting the treatment accordingly.
Administration of the subject composition may be carried out in any convenient manner, including by spraying, injection, swallowing, infusion, implantation or transplantation. The compositions described herein can be administered to a patient subcutaneously, intradermally, intratumorally, intranodal, intraspinally, intramuscularly, by intravenous (i.v.) injection, or intraperitoneally. In one embodiment, the T cell composition of the invention is administered to a patient by intradermal or subcutaneous injection. In another embodiment, the T cell composition of the invention is preferably administered by i.v. injection. The composition of T cells can be injected directly into the tumor, lymph node or site of infection.
In certain embodiments of the invention, cells activated and expanded using the methods described herein or other methods known in the art for expanding T cells to therapeutic levels are administered to a patient in conjunction with (e.g., prior to, concurrently with, or subsequent to) any number of relevant treatment modalities, including but not limited to treatment with: such as antiviral therapy, cidofovir and interleukin-2, cytarabine (also known as ARA-C) or natalizumab therapy for MS patients or efavirenz therapy for psoriasis patients or other therapy for PML patients. In further embodiments, the T cells of the invention may be used in combination with: chemotherapy, radiation, immunosuppressive agents such as cyclosporine, azathioprine, methotrexate, mycophenolate mofetil, and FK506, antibodies, or other immunotherapeutic agents. In a further embodiment, the cell composition of the invention is administered to the patient in conjunction with (e.g., prior to, concurrently with, or subsequent to) bone marrow transplantation with a chemotherapeutic agent such as fludarabine, external beam radiation therapy (XRT), cyclophosphamide. For example, in one embodiment, the subject may undergo standard treatment with high dose chemotherapy followed by peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. In some embodiments, after transplantation, the subject receives an injection of the expanded immune cells of the invention. In an additional embodiment, the expanded cells are administered pre-or post-surgery.
The dosage of the above treatments administered to a patient will vary with the precise nature of the condition being treated and the recipient of the treatment. The proportion of doses administered to a human can be effected in accordance with accepted practice in the art. Typically, 1X 10 may be used per treatment or per course of treatment 6 1 to 10 10 The modified T cells of the invention are administered to a patient, for example, by intravenous infusion.

CD155 is highly expressed in a variety of tumors.
Example 1
The expression of CD155 in tumor cell lines (https:// ports. branched. org/capsule/pagegene ═ PVR) was retrieved using the CCLE database, and as a result, as shown in FIG. 1, CD155 was highly expressed in various solid tumors, even in hematological tumors such as T-cell _ lymphoma, lymphoma _ Hodgkin, and the like.
Example 2

T cells were isolated from human blood using the magnetic bead method, activated with CD3/CD28 complex, infected with packaged lentivirus, and expression levels were measured by 48h flow cytometry. The specific process is as follows:
(1) a lymphocyte separation medium was first added to a 350mL centrifuge tube, and then blood was added to the upper layer of the lymphocyte separation medium (the volume ratio of the lymphocyte separation medium to the blood was 2:1) while keeping the interface clear, and the mixture was centrifuged at 800g for 25 minutes (the centrifuge was set to 1 at the rising rate and 0 at the falling rate).
(2) After the centrifugation is finished, the eukaryotic cell layer is carefully sucked, added with PBS and gently blown and uniformly mixed, and centrifuged for 10 minutes at 500 g.
(3) After resuspending the cells with PBS, the cells were counted. After counting, after centrifugation at 300g for 10 minutes, the supernatant was discarded and buffer in x-vivo medium containing 10% serum was added (10 × 1) 7 Adding 70 mu L of each cell
(4) According to 1 x 10 7 After adding 20. mu.L of CD4/CD8 magnetic beads to each cell, the cells were washed with cell buffer at 4 ℃ and resuspended.
(5) The column was placed in a magnetic field, rinsed with buffer, and the cell suspension was added, after the liquid had run off, the column was rinsed twice with buffer.
(6) The column was removed from the magnetic field, and after adding buffer, the cells were quickly pushed into the centrifuge tube with a plunger and centrifuged at 300g for 10 minutes.
(7) After completion of centrifugation, the supernatant was discarded, and cells were resuspended in an x-vivo complete medium (containing 10% serum and containing IL-7, IL-15, and IL-21 at a ratio of 1: 1000) and counted.
(8) Adjusting cell density to 1 x 10 6 Cells were activated by adding a complex of CD3 and CD28 at a ratio of 1: 100/mL.
(9) After 48h of activation, the cells can be counted for subsequent lentiviral infection. According to the titer of the prepared virus, adding lentivirus into T cells, centrifuging at 1800rpm at 32 ℃ for 1h, placing the T cells in an incubator for culture, changing the culture solution after 12h, and detecting the expression of CAR by 48h flow cytometry.
Example 7
20 ten thousand 293t cells are paved in a 24-well plate, different numbers of viruses are added after the cells are attached to the wall, and the titer of the viruses is calculated by detecting the expression of TIGIT in the cells after 48 hours. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, a high positive rate was obtained with a virus amount of 1. mu.L, indicating a high virus titer.
Example 8
Detecting a CAR expression level of a TIGIT-CAR-T cell; infected CAR-T cells and uninfected T cells in the same batch are taken as a control, the cells are incubated with a Flow antibody of TIGIT for 30 minutes, washed twice and detected by a Flow cytometer Fortessa, and the expression result is obtained by Flow Jo analysis. The results are shown in FIG. 6. Figure 6 results show that CAR expression levels of T cells after infection with both viruses were 58.3% and 60.8%, respectively.
Example 9
The killing effect of different cancer cells (such as human prostate cancer cell line PC3, pancreatic cancer cell line Panc-1 and ovarian cancer cell line OVCAR-83 cancer cell lines) is tested.
Adding target cells 2X 10 in a low adsorption well plate 4 Number/well, in an effective target ratio (number of effector cells: number of target cells) 4: 1. 2: 1. 1: 1. 0.5: 1. 0: 1 corresponding number of CAR-T cells were added while different gradient target cell wells were made (0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 10 ten thousand). Co-incubationAfter (co-culture: CC) for 12-48h, because the target cells can express luciferase, after the substrate is added, the light absorption value and the number of the cells are in a linear relationship, and the killing effect of two CAR-T cells on the target cells can be embodied through reading.
From the results of fig. 7, it is seen that the unmodified T cell has no killing function on the target cell, but the killing effect of the two CAR-T cells is obvious, and the killing effect gradually increases with the increase of the effective-to-target ratio, which indicates that when the CAR extracellular antigen recognition region targeting CD155 is TIGIT extracellular segment protein, the TIGIT-CAR-T cell has a good anti-tumor activity.
A single-chain antibody fragment in which the CAR extracellular antigen recognition region is antigen-specific is exemplified.

After a CD155 knockout PC3 cell (PC3-CD155KO) or a CD155 knockout PC3 cell (PC3-WT) and a T cell are incubated for 24h at a ratio of 1:1, the expression of IFN gamma, TNF alpha and granzyme B (GraB) of the T cell (CD4 and CD8) is detected by flow, and the result is shown in FIG. 14A, and the capability of the T cell to express a functional cytokine is obviously reduced after the incubation of the T cell and a CD155 positive tumor cell. For example, in CD8, the ratio of expression of IFN γ in T cells incubated with PC3-CD155KO cells was 48.4%, the ratio of expression of TNF α was 70%, and the ratio of expression of IFN γ in T cells incubated with PC3-WT cells was 58.2%, the ratio of expression of IFN γ in T cells incubated with PC3-WT cells was 33.4%, the ratio of expression of TNF α was 36.3%, and the ratio of expression of granzyme B was 43.9%.
CD155 knock-out PC3-PSMA + Cell (PC3+ CD155KO) or PC3-PSMA without knockout of CD155 + Cell (PC3+ WT) and PSMA-CAR-T-targeting PSMACells with low (target antigen multi) effective target ratio E: T (effector cells: target cells): the killing efficiency was calculated after incubation for 12h at 1:1, 0.5:1, 0.25:1, 0.125: 1. As a result, as shown in FIG. 14B, the expression of CD155 significantly reduced the killing effect of PSMA-CAR-T on target cells.
In conclusion, the present invention finds that CD155 is highly expressed in solid tumor and hematological tumor such as liver cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, gastric cancer, pancreatic cancer, etc., and uniform antigen expression is very important for CAR T cell-based therapy, because tumor target heterogeneity is a limiting factor in the treatment of malignant tumor using these powerful and specific therapies, the CD 155-targeted CAR T cells of the present invention can exhibit strong activity on various tumor cells (including solid tumor, liquid tumor). And can also play an obvious anti-tumor effect in vivo under the non-toxic effect. Cellular immunotherapy targeting CD155 may alternatively exert anti-tumor effects in a variety of tumors.
