Characterization of Genetically Modified T-Cell Receptors that Recognize the CEA:691-699 Peptide in the Context of HLA-A2.1 on Human Colorectal Cancer Cells
31 Dec 2008
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a tumor-associated protein expressed on a variety of adenocarcinomas. To develop an immunotherapy for patients with cancers that overexpress CEA, we isolated and genetically modified a T-cell receptors (TCRs) that specifically bound a CEA peptide on human cancer cells. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: HLA-A2.1 transgenic mice were immunized with CEA:691-699. A CEA-reactive TCR was...
