Use of chimeric antigen receptor modified cells to treat cancer
The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for compositions, methods, and kits for treating cancer using chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) modified cells. Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an isolated nucleic acid sequence encoding CAR. The CAR may include an antigen binding domain, a transmembrane domain, a costimulatory signaling region, and a CD3 zeta signaling domain. The antigen binding domain may bind to an antigen of a non-essential organ.

2. The CAR of claim 1 , wherein the CAR comprises amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO: 37.
3. The isolated nucleic acid sequence of claim 1 , wherein the intracellular domain comprises a CD3 zeta signaling domain.
4. The CAR of claim 3 , wherein the intracellular domain further comprises a costimulatory signaling region comprising an intracellular domain of a costimulatory molecule selected from the group consisting of CD27, CD28, 4-1BB, OX40, CD30, CD40, PD-1, ICOS, lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), CD2, CD7, LIGHT, NKG2C, B7-H3, and any combination thereof.
