Abstract

There is provided a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising a CD19-binding domain which comprises a) a heavy chain variable region (VH) having complementarity determining regions (CDRs) with the following sequences: CDR1—GY-AFSSS (SEQ ID No. 1); CDR2—YPGDED (SEQ ID No. 2) CDR3—SLLYGDYLDY (SEQ ID No. 3); and b) a light chain variable region (VL) having CDRs with the following sequences: CDR1—SASSSVSYMH (SEQ ID No. 4); CDR2—DTSKLAS (SEQ ID No. 5) CDR3—QQWNINPLT (SEQ ID No. 6). There is also provided a cell comprising such a CAR, and the use of such a cell in the treatment of cancer, in particular a B cell malignancy.

Claims (15)

1 . A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 10.

2 . A cell that comprises the CAR according to claim 1 .

3 . The cell according to claim 2 that is a hematopoietic stem cell or progenitor cell.

4 . The cell according to claim 2 that is a T cell or a natural killer (NK) cell.

5 . A composition that comprises a plurality of cells according to claim 2 .

6 . The composition according to claim 5 , further comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

7 . A composition that comprises a plurality of cells according to claim 3 .

8 . The composition according to claim 7 , further comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

9 . A composition that comprises a plurality of cells according to claim 4 .

10 . The composition according to claim 9 , further comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

11 . A method for making a cell according to claim 2 , which comprises the step of transducing or transfecting a cell with a vector that comprises a nucleotide sequence that encodes a CAR that comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 10.

12 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the cell is a T cell or NK cell.

13 . The method according to claim 11 , wherein the cell is a hematopoietic stem cell or progenitor cell.

14 . A nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence that encodes a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), said CAR comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 10.

15 . A vector that comprises the nucleic acid according to claim 14 .
