Problems solved by technology

A major drawback of developing CARs with bnAbs is that they require further engineering leading to reduced therapeutic efficacy (Bar et al., NEngl J Med 2016; 375:2037-2050; Sievers et al., Current Opinion in HIV and AIDS; 2015: 10(3), 151-159)
Furthermore, this approach can lead to undesired viral escape (Wu et al., Journal of Virology 2012; 86:5844-5853; Barr et al. N Engl J Med 2016; 375:2037-2050; Lynche et al., 2015 Journal of Virology; 89(8):4201-4213)

Embodiment 1

[0473] Assembly of HIV-specific binders into functional CAR molecules

[0474] This example describes the general method used to construct monospecific, bispecific and trispecific anti-HIV CARs comprising mD1.22, m36.4 and C46 peptides, and how to express these CARs on the surface of primary T cells.

[0475] Materials and methods:

[0476] Generation of lentiviral vector constructs

[0477] The CAR antigen-binding domain sequence is derived from published sequences (Chen et al., J. Virol. 2014; 88: (2) 1125-1139; Chen et al., Antiviral Research 2010; 88: (1) 107-115; Egerer et al., Molecular Therapy 2010;19:(7)1236-1244) and were synthesized by ATUM (formerly DNA2.0; Newark, CA) or IDT Technologies (IA, Coralville). Synthetic gene fragments were subcloned in-frame onto an MSCV promoter-based lentiviral backbone comprising the CD8 linker / hinge, CD8 transmembrane domain, 41-BB, and CD3ζ signaling domain. For bicistronic bispecific and trispecific CAR constructs, the cleavabl...

Embodiment 2

[0491] Novel bispecific and trispecific anti-HIV CARs potently destroy HIV envelope targets

[0492] This example describes the functional characterization of anti-HIVCAR as determined by a highly sensitive luciferase-based cytotoxicity assay. Additionally, T cell activation was determined by quantification of cytokine secretion in the absence and presence of HIV-envelope expressing target cells.

[0493] Materials and methods:

[0494] Cell Lines Used for Functional Characterization

[0495] The 293T cell line was engineered to stably express the single-chain full-length HIV envelope protein (293T-Env) and was generously provided by Dr. Dimiter Dimitrov (NCI, Fort Detrick, MD). Briefly, 293T-Env cells were grown in Dulbecco's modified eagle medium (DMEM) in the presence of 10% fetal bovine serum and 60 μg / ml zeocin to maintain selection . To generate luciferase-expressing cells, 293T-Env cells were transduced with a lentiviral vector containing the firefly luciferase gene...

Embodiment 3

[0516] Bispecific and trispecific anti-HIV duoCAR-T cells broadly and potently eliminate HIV-infected PBMCs in vivo and in vitro

[0517] This example interrogates the anti-HIV CAR-T cell killing potency and the susceptibility of CAR-T cells to HIV-1 infection after in vitro and in vivo challenge of PBMCs infected with different Env-IMC-LucR HIV-1 viruses.

[0518] Materials and methods:

[0519] In vitro potency of an anti-HIV CAR using a replication-competent Env-IMC-LucR molecular clone to infect donor-matched PBMCs

[0520] Inhibition of HIV-1 infection was investigated using a replication-competent HIV-1 molecular clone containing the desired heterologous HIV-1 envelope upstream of the Renilla luciferase ORF in frame (Env-IMC-LucR) . Infectious clones were generated as previously described (Edmonds et al., Virology 2010, 408: 1-13). HIV-1 infection of PBMC or CD4 + Following T cells, Renilla luciferase expression was used as a highly sensitive and quantifiable measure o...
