Brief Summary: Chimeric antigen receptor modified T (CART) cell therapy has been identified as a breakthrough therapy in hematologic malignancies. However, CART cell therapy yielded no satisfactory efficacy data in the study of solid tumors. One of major challenges is the complicated immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) in solid tumors. It has been reported that transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is one of the major regulatory factors in the TME. In this study, we construct CAR-EGFR-TGFβR-KO T cell by knocking out TGF-β receptor Ⅱ through CRISPR/Cas9 in order to study the anti-tumor activities and safety profiles of CAR-EGFR-TGFβR-KO T cell in previously treated advanced EGFR positive solid tumors.
Detailed Description: Chimeric antigen receptor modified T (CART) cell therapy has been identified as a breakthrough therapy in hematologic malignancies. Different from the promising efficacy in leukemia, lymphoma and multiple myeloma, however, CART cell therapy yielded no satisfactory efficacy data in the study of solid tumors. One of major challenges is the complicated immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) in solid tumors. It has been reported that transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is one of the major regulatory factors in the TME, which plays a key role in promoting tumor initiation, metastasis, and suppressing anti-tumor immunity. In this phase Ⅰstudy, we plan to construct CAR-EGFR-TGFβR-KO T cell by knocking out TGF-β receptor Ⅱ through CRISPR/Cas9 in order to study the anti-tumor activities and safety profiles of CAR-EGFR-TGFβR-KO T cell in the treatment of previously treated advanced EGFR antigen overexpressing solid tumors.
