Reprogramming T Lymphocytes for Melanoma Adoptive Immunotherapy by T-Cell Receptor Gene Transfer with Lentiviral Vectors
8 Dec 2009
Abstract excerpt
T-cell receptor (TCR) gene transfer for cancer immunotherapy is limited by the availability of large numbers of tumor-specific T cells. TCR alpha and beta chains were isolated from a highly lytic HLA-A2-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) clone recognizing the melanoma-associated Melan-A/MART-1 antigen and inserted into a lentiviral vector carrying a bidirectional promoter capable of robust and coordinated...
