Provided herein are chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) for cancer therapy, and more particularly, CARs containing a scFv from an anti-ROR-1 monoclonal antibody. Provided are immune effector cells containing such CARs, and methods of treating proliferative disorders.

ROR-1 specific chimeric antigen receptors and uses thereof

A fusion protein comprising: a first component comprising an antibody, or a fragment or variant thereof; and a second component comprising a cytokine trap or an adenosine deaminase or a fragment or variant thereof. In certain embodiments, the antibody is an anti-PD-1 antibody. In certain embodiments, the antibody binds to a tumor antigen, for example a MUC16 or MUC1 antigen. In certain embodiments, the cytokine trap is a TGF-β trap. A polynucleotide encoding such a fusion protein and a vector comprising such a polynucleotide. A composition comprising the fusion protein. A method of using the composition, including in the treatment of cancer.

Fusion constructs and methods of using thereof

Disclosed herein are polynucleotides encoding cell tags for use in immunotherapeutic applications, and systems comprising polynucleotide cell tags for regulating the activity of a cell. The compositions, methods and systems described herein provide tools for regulating activity of genetically engineered cells in a subject.

Expression of novel cell tags

Provided herein are chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) for cancer therapy, and more particularly, CARs containing a scFv from an anti-MUC16 monoclonal antibody. Provided are immune effector cells containing such CARs, and methods of treating proliferative disorders.

MUC16 specific chimeric antigen receptors and uses thereof

Disclosed herein are polynucleotides encoding ligand-inducible gene switch polypeptides, and systems comprising gene switch polypeptides for modulating the expression of a heterologous gene and an interleukin in a host cell. The compositions, methods and systems described herein facilitate ligand dependent expression of polypeptides including but not limited to cytokines and antigen binding polypeptides.

Modulating expression of polypeptides via new gene switch expression systems

Provided herein are chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) for cancer therapy, and more particularly, CARs containing a scFv from a CD33 monoclonal antibody. Provided are immune effector cells containing such CARs, and methods of treating proliferative disorders such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and relapsed or refractory AML.

CD33 specific chimeric antigen receptors

Disclosed herein are methods and compositions including antigen-binding polypeptides comprising a stalk region and a stalk extension region. In some cases, the antigen-binding compositions comprising the stalk extension region has increased expression on a cell surface and, in some cases, has increased antigen-binding efficiency. A subject antigen binding polypeptide can be a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR).

Polypeptide compositions comprising spacers

Provided herein is a composition comprising a fusion protein or a fragment or a variant thereof comprising an anti-PD1 antibody or a fragment/variant thereof and a TGF-&#x3b2; trap. Provided herein is a composition comprising a fusion protein or a fragment thereof or a variant thereof comprising an anti-PD1 antibody or a fragment/variant thereof and a ADA2 polypeptide. Also provided herein are methods of using the composition in treating cancer.
