Abstract

Provided are a chimeric antigen receptor targeting CD20 antigen and a preparation method thereof. The extracellular antigen binding domain of the chimeric antigen receptor includes an antibody heavy chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO: 7 or 9 or 33 and an antibody light chain variable region shown in SEQ ID NO: 11 or 13 or 35, and is capable of killing tumor cells.

Claims (10)

1 . A nucleic acid encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), wherein the CAR comprises an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5.

2 . A vector comprising a nucleic acid which encodes a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), wherein the CAR comprises an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5.

3 . A pharmaceutical composition comprising a vector, wherein the vector comprises a nucleic acid encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and wherein the CAR comprises an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5.

4 . An immune cell comprising a nucleic acid which encodes a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), wherein the CAR comprises an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5.

5 . A pharmaceutical composition comprising an immune cell, wherein the immune cell comprises a nucleic acid encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and wherein the CAR comprises an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5.

6 . A nucleic acid, comprising a nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.

7 . A vector comprising a nucleic acid, wherein the nucleic acid comprises a nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.

8 . A pharmaceutical composition comprising a vector, wherein the vector comprises a nucleic acid, and wherein the nucleic acid comprises a nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.

9 . An immune cell comprising a nucleic acid, wherein the nucleic acid comprises a nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.

10 . A pharmaceutical composition comprising an immune cell, wherein the immune cell comprises a nucleic acid, and wherein the nucleic acid comprises a nucleic acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6.
