Problems solved by technology

However, there are many technical problems in practice, including insufficient levels of expansion, premature activation-induced cell death (apoptosis), or loss of antigen specificity and / or function
[0007] Part of the problem is the inability to replicate in vitro the environment in which antigen-specific T cell expansion occurs in lymph nodes in vivo

Embodiment 1

[0240] Example 1: Anti-HER2CD4 in breast cancer patients inoculated with type I dendritic cells + Restoration of Th1 responses

[0241] The following study was designed to explore the role of helper type 1 polarized dendritic cell ("DC1") seeding.

[0242] Type I dendritic cell vaccination with HER2 with residual disease after neoadjuvant therapy + IBC patients

[0243] Four HER2 patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant therapy + IBC patients receive adjuvant HER2-pulsed type I dendritic cell vaccine. The Th1 immune response of each patient was determined before type I dendritic cell inoculation, 3 months after dendritic cell inoculation and 6 months after inoculation, and from six HER2 II peptides (SEQ ID NO: 1-6 ) pulsed patient PBMC production by measuring IFNγ production by ELISPOT as described above. Autologous type I dendritic cell vaccines were prepared as previously described. (1) overall anti-HER2 response rate (response rate >1 peptide), (2) number ...

Embodiment 2

[0251] In vitro expansion of embodiment 2-HER2-specific Th1 cells

[0252] The following study was designed to interrogate the role of adoptive T cell transfer in restoring anti-HER2Thl immunity. T cell expansion to levels required for adoptive therapy and epitope mapping studies while maintaining antigen specificity and cellular function.

[0253] Briefly, in vitro, HER2-specific Th1 cells were generated by co-culture with HER2 peptide-pulsed type I dendritic cells and expanded using IL-2 alone or IL-2, IL-7, and IL-15 . Th1 cells were subsequently expanded by repeated HER2-peptide pulses of type I dendritic cell co-culture or by anti-CD3 / CD28 stimulation. The expansion factor was defined as: (the number of T cells after expansion / the number of T cells before expansion); the specificity of antigen-specific IIγ production was determined by ELISA.

[0254] As shown in this paper, CD4 + Repeated co-culture of T cells with HER2 peptide pulsed with type I dendritic cells stimu...

Abstract

A method of creating a microenvironment for culture expansion of T cells. The expanded T cells can be used for a variety of therapeutic and research purposes.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to and benefit from U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 138,969, filed March 26, 2015. technical field [0002] This example relates to methods of sensitization and expansion of T cells for therapy and epitope mapping in artificial lymph nodes in vitro and diagnostic monitoring methods, therapeutic methods and tools based thereon. Background technique [0003] The lifetime risk of developing breast cancer is almost one in eight. The erb-B2 oncogene (HER-2 / neu) is a molecular driver overexpressed in a large number of breast, ovarian, gastroesophageal, lung, pancreatic, prostate and other solid tumors. HER2 overexpression (“HER2 pos ”) one is a driver molecule in several tumor types comprising approximately 20-25% of breast cancers (Meric, F., et al., J. AmColl. Surg. 194:488-501 (2002)), which is associated with invasion Sexual clinical course, resistance to chemotherapy, and overall poor prognosis in breast cancer ("BC"). See ...
