Abstract

Novel anti-effector moiety antibodies or antigen binding domains thereof and CARs that contain such effector moiety antigen binding domains, either with or without one or more booster elements, and host cells expressing the receptors, and nucleic acid molecules encoding the receptors are provided herein, as well as methods of use of same in a patient-specific immunotherapy that can be used to treat solid tumor cancers and other diseases and conditions.

Claims (10)

1 . A method of treating a ROR1 + -cancer in a subject in need thereof, the method comprising administering to the subject having the ROR1 + -cancer a pharmaceutical composition comprising an anti-tumor effective amount of a population of T cells, wherein the T cells comprise a constitutive promoter operably linked to a nucleic acid sequence that encodes a single chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) with one or more booster elements, a tandem CAR with one or more booster elements, a multi-targeting CAR with one or more booster elements, or a DuoCAR with one or more booster elements, wherein the CAR of the single CAR with one or more booster elements, the tandem CAR with one or more booster elements, the multi-targeting CAR with one or more booster elements, or the DuoCAR with one or more booster elements comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 152, 154, 156, 160, 162, 164, 174, 176, 178, 180, 182, 184, 192, 194, 196, 198, 227, 233, 235, 237, 239, 241, 243, 252, 254, or 256, wherein the T cells are T cells of the subject having the ROR + -cancer.

2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the T cells are T cells of a human having a hematological ROR1 + -cancer.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the hematological ROR1 + -cancer is leukemia or lymphoma.

4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the leukemia is acute myeloid leukemia (AML), blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN), chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), acute lymphoblastic T cell leukemia (T-ALL), or acute lymphoblastic B cell leukemia (B-ALL).

5 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the lymphoma is mantle cell lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or Hodgkin's lymphoma.

6 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the hematological ROR1 + -cancer is multiple myeloma.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the ROR1 + -cancer is an adult carcinoma, wherein the adult carcinoma is an oral and pharynx cancer, a digestive system cancer, a respiratory system cancer, a bone and joint cancer, a soft tissue cancer, a skin cancer, a tumor of the central nervous system, a cancer of the breast, a cancer of the genital system, a cancer of the urinary system, a cancer of the eye and orbit, a cancer of the endocrine system, a cancer of the brain and other nervous system, or any combination thereof.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the T cells comprise a nucleic acid sequence that encodes a single ROR1 CAR with one or more booster elements, wherein the CAR of the single ROR1 CAR with one or more booster elements comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 160, SEQ ID NO: 162, SEQ ID NO: 164, SEQ ID NO: 192, SEQ ID NO: 194, SEQ ID NO: 196, SEQ ID NO: 233, SEQ ID NO: 235, SEQ ID NO: 237, SEQ ID NO: 239, SEQ ID NO: 241, or SEQ ID NO: 243.

9 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the T cells comprise a nucleic acid sequence that encodes a tandem ROR1-MSLN CAR with one or more booster elements, wherein the CAR of the tandem ROR1-MLSN CAR with one or more booster elements comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 176, SEQ ID NO: 178, or SEQ ID NO: 180.

10 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the T cells comprise a nucleic acid sequence that encodes a ROR1-MSLN DuoCAR with one or more booster elements, wherein the CAR of the ROR1-MSLN DuoCAR with one or more booster elements comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 182 or SEQ ID NO: 184.
