Abstract
The invention provides compositions and methods for treating cancer by using immune effector cells (e.g., T cells, NK cells) engineered to conditionally express an agent which enhances the immune effector response of an immune effector cell that expresses a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR). The conditional agents described herein include agents that target a cancer associated antigen, e.g., a CAR, agents that inhibit one or more checkpoint inhibitors of the immune response, and a cytokine.
