<i>piggyBac</i> Transposon/Transposase System to Generate CD19-Specific T Cells for the Treatment of B-Lineage Malignancies
11 Nov 2009
Abstract excerpt
In this report, transposition with the piggyBac system is used to introduce a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) into T lymphocytes. The CD19-specific CAR is expressed long term in expanding T cell populations from its integrated locus and leads to CD19-dependent killing of tumor targets. Chromosomal analysis indicated no signs of genotoxicity. Nonviral integrating vectors can be used for expression of therapeutic...
