The present disclosure provides immune cells genetically modified to produce two antigentriggered polypeptides, each recognizing a different cell surface antigen, wherein the two different cell surface antigens employed are selected from those pairs described herein. The present disclosure further provides systems comprising two antigen-triggered polypeptides (or nucleic acids encoding same), each recognizing a different cell surface antigen, wherein the two different cell surface antigens employed are selected from those pairs described herein. Also provided are method of killing a target cancer cell, using the described genetically modified immune cells and/or systems. The present disclosure also provides poly specific-immune inducing polypeptides including first and second antigen binding domains specific for first and second antigens, respectively, present on the surface of a target cancer cell.

Systems and methods for targeting cancer cells

The present disclosure provides an immune cell genetically modified to produce two antigentriggered polypeptides, each recognizing a different cell surface antigen. The present disclosure provides a system two antigen-triggered polypeptides, each recognizing a different cell surface antigen. The present disclosure provides a method of killing a target cancer cell, using a genetically modified immune cell or a system of the present disclosure. The present disclosure provides a computational method to identify target antigen pairs on a cancer cell.
