[0001]072734.1771 PATENT CELLS COMPRISING NON-HLA RESTRICTED T CELL RECEPTORS CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No.63 / 668,511, filed July 8, 2024, the content of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety, and to which priority is claimed. SEQUENCE LISTING The instant application contains a Sequence Listing which has been submitted herewith and is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Said .xml copy, created on July 01, 2025, is named 0727341771, and is 512,687 bytes in size. INTRODUCTION The presently disclosed subject matter provides compositions and methods for targeting immune responses toward tumor antigen-bearing cells. It relates to compositions, e.g., modified immunoresponsive cells, comprising an antigen-recognizing receptor (e.g., a TCR-like fusion molecule (HIT receptor)) and an inhibitory polynucleotide that targets an endogenous TCR locus (e.g., TRAC, TRBC1, TRBC2, etc.), where the compositions mediate an immune response toward cells bearing the antigen. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In the context of adoptive cell therapies, it has been shown that transgenes encoding chimeric receptors (e.g., CAR) can be efficiently integrated into the TRAC locus that encodes for the endogenous TCR α constant chain using an adeno-associated viral vector as the homology- directed repair template that dynamically control TCR expression levels in response to T-cell activation states. While this strategy allows to disrupt endogenous TCR expression and takes advantage of endogenous gene regulatory mechanisms, its applicability can be limited because of the high production and manufacturing costs as well as for safety reasons. Indeed, to date, all FDA-approved adoptive cell therapies use lentiviral or retroviral transduction to achieve transgene integration. Therefore, novel concepts to control TCR expression levels with reduced production and manufacturing costs are needed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The presently disclosed subject matter provides compositions, e.g., modified immune cells, useful for immunotherapy (e.g., T cell immunotherapy). The presently disclosed compositions, e.g., modified immune cells, comprise: (a) an antigen-recognizing receptor (e.g., a HIT receptor) that targets an antigen, and (b) an inhibitory polynucleotide that targets an endogenous TCR locus (e.g., TRAC, TRBC1, TRBC2, etc.). The presently disclosed subject matter also provides methods for producing such compositions, and methods of using such compositions for treating and / or preventing tumors (e.g., cancer, e.g., a solid tumor or a blood cancer, e.g., a myeloid disorder, e.g., acute myeloid leukemia (AML)). The presently disclosed subject matter is based, at least in part, on the discovery that removal of endogenous TCR can be achieved by knockdown of their genes (e.g., TRAC, TRBC1, TRBC2, etc.) without altering the transgenic TRAC and TRBC expression required for the antigen-recognizing receptor (e.g., the HIT receptor). This approach allows the elimination of targeted genome editing significantly improving manufacturing operations, reducing costs, and increasing safety profile. Non-limiting embodiments of the presently disclosed subject matter are described by the present specification and Examples.ACTIVE 509948342.214 072734.1771 PATENT For purposes of clarity of disclosure and not by way of limitation, the detailed description is divided into the following subsections: 1. Definitions; 2. Antigen-Recognizing Receptor; 3. Inhibitory Polynucleotides; 4. Cells; 5. Nucleic Acid Compositions and Vectors; 6. Formulations and Administration; 7. Methods of Treatment; 8. Kits; and 9. Exemplary Embodiments. 1. Definitions Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the meaning commonly understood by a person skilled in the art. The following references provide one of skill with a general definition of many of the terms used in the presently disclosed subject matter: Singleton et al., Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology (2nd ed. 1994); The Cambridge Dictionary of Science and Technology (Walker ed., 1988); The Glossary of Genetics, 5th Ed., R. Rieger et al. (eds.), Springer Verlag (1991); and Hale & Marham, The Harper Collins Dictionary of Biology (1991). As used herein, the term “about” or “approximately” means within an acceptable error range for the particular value as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which will depend in part on how the value is measured or determined, i.e., the limitations of the measurement system. For example, “about” can mean within 3 or more than 3 standard deviations, per the practice in the art. Alternatively, “about” can mean a range of up to 20%, e.g., up to 10%, up to 5%, or up to 1% of a given value. Alternatively, particularly with respect to biological systems or processes, the term can mean within an order of magnitude, e.g., within 5-fold or within 2-fold, of a value. As used herein, a “co-stimulatory molecule” refers to a cell surface molecule other than an antigen receptor or its ligand that can provide an efficient response of lymphocytes to an antigen. In certain embodiments, a co-stimulatory molecule can provide optimal lymphocyte activation. As used herein, a “co-stimulatory ligand” refers to a molecule that upon binding to its receptor (e.g., a co-stimulatory molecule) produces a co-stimulatory response, e.g., an intracellularACTIVE 509948342.215 072734.1771 PATENT response that effects the stimulation provided when an antigen-recognizing receptor (e.g., a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)) binds to its target antigen. By “immunoresponsive cell” is meant a cell that functions in an immune response or a progenitor, or progeny thereof. In certain embodiments, the immunoresponsive cell is a cell of lymphoid lineage. Non-limiting examples of cells of lymphoid lineage include T cells, Natural Killer (NK) cells, B cells, and stem cells from which lymphoid cells may be differentiated. In certain embodiments, the immunoresponsive cell is a cell of myeloid lineage. By “activates an immunoresponsive cell” is meant induction of signal transduction or changes in protein expression in the cell resulting in initiation of an immune response. For example, when CD3 Chains cluster in response to ligand binding and immunoreceptor tyrosine- based inhibition motifs (ITAMs) a signal transduction cascade is produced. In certain embodiments, when an endogenous TCR or an exogenous CAR binds to an antigen, a formation of an immunological synapse occurs that includes clustering of many molecules near the bound receptor (e.g. CD4 or CD8, CD3^ / ^ / ^ / ^, etc.). This clustering of membrane bound signaling molecules allows for ITAM motifs contained within the CD3 chains to become phosphorylated. This phosphorylation in turn initiates a T cell activation pathway ultimately activating transcription factors, such as NF-^B and AP-1. These transcription factors induce global gene expression of the T cell to increase IL-2 production for proliferation and expression of master regulator T cell proteins in order to initiate a T cell mediated immune response. By “stimulates an immunoresponsive cell” is meant a signal that results in a robust and sustained immune response. In various embodiments, this occurs after immune cell (e.g., T-cell) activation or concomitantly mediated through receptors including, but not limited to, CD28, CD137 (4-1BB), OX40, CD40, ICOS, DAP-10, CD27, NKG2D, CD2, CD150, CD226. Receiving multiple stimulatory signals can be important to mount a robust and long-term T cell mediated immune response. T cells can quickly become inhibited and unresponsive to antigen. While the effects of these co-stimulatory signals may vary, they generally result in increased gene expression in order to generate long lived, proliferative, and anti-apoptotic T cells that robustly respond to antigen for complete and sustained eradication. As used herein, the term “antigen heterogeneity” refers to the differential expression of a number of antigens (e.g., tumor antigens, e.g., CD70, CD312) which results in variation in the tumor cell phenotype and distribution of tumor antigen-positive cells. As used herein, the term “low antigen density” refers to a target molecule (e.g., an antigen) having a cell surface density of less than about 5,000 molecules per cell. In certain embodiments, the low antigen density is a cell surface density is less than about 4,000 molecules per cell, less than about 3,000 molecules per cell, less than about 2,000 molecules per cell, less than about 1,500ACTIVE 509948342.216 072734.1771 PATENT molecules per cell, less than about 1,000 molecules per cell, less than about 500 molecules per cell, less than about 200 molecules per cell, or less than about 100 molecules per cell. In certain embodiments, the low antigen density is a cell surface density is less than about 2,000 molecules per cell. In certain embodiments, the low antigen density is a cell surface density is less than about 1,500 molecules per cell. In certain embodiments, the low antigen density is a cell surface density is less than about 1,000 molecules per cell. In certain embodiments, the low antigen density is a cell surface density is between about 4,000 molecules per cell and about 2,000 molecules per cell, between about 2,000 molecules per cell and about 1,000 molecules per cell, between about 1,500 molecules per cell and about 1,000 molecules per cell, between about 2,000 molecules per cell and about 500 molecules per cell, between about 1,000 molecules per cell and about 200 molecules per cell, or between about 1,000 molecules per cell and about 100 molecules per cell. As used herein, the term “low tumor cell frequency” refers to a target cell having a target cell frequency of less than about 50% per tumor. In certain embodiments, the low tumor cell frequency is less than about 40% per tumor, less than about 30% per tumor, less than about 20% per tumor, less than about 15% per tumor, less than about 10% per tumor, less than about 5% per tumor, less than about 2% per tumor, or less than about 1% per tumor. In certain embodiments, the low tumor cell frequency is less than about 2% per tumor. In certain embodiments, the low tumor cell frequency is less than about 1.5% per tumor. In certain embodiments, the low tumor cell frequency is less than about 1% per tumor. In certain embodiments, the low tumor cell frequency is between about 40% per tumor and about 20% per tumor, between about 20% per tumor and about 10% per tumor, between about 15% per tumor and about 10% per tumor, between about 20% per tumor and about 5% per tumor, between about 10% per tumor and about 2% per tumor, or between about 10% per tumor and about 1% per tumor. The term “antigen-recognizing receptor” as used herein refers to a receptor that is capable of activating an immune or immunoresponsive cell (e.g., a T-cell) in response to its binding to an antigen. As used herein, the term “antibody” means not only intact antibody molecules, but also fragments of antibody molecules that retain immunogen-binding ability. Such fragments are also well known in the art and are regularly employed both in vitro and in vivo. Accordingly, as used herein, the term “antibody” means not only intact immunoglobulin molecules but also the well- known active fragments F(ab')2, and Fab. F(ab')2, and Fab fragments that lack the Fe fragment of intact antibody, clear more rapidly from the circulation, and may have less non-specific tissue binding of an intact antibody (Wahl et al., J. Nucl. Med. 24:316-325 (1983). As used herein, antibodies include whole native antibodies, bispecific antibodies; chimeric antibodies; Fab, Fab’, single chain variable fragment (scFv), fusion polypeptides, and unconventional antibodies. InACTIVE 509948342.217 072734.1771 PATENT certain embodiments, an antibody is a glycoprotein comprising at least two heavy (H) chains and two light (L) chains inter-connected by disulfide bonds. Each heavy chain is comprised of a heavy chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VH) and a heavy chain constant (CH) region. The heavy chain constant region is comprised of three domains, CH1, CH2 and CH3. Each light chain is comprised of a light chain variable region (abbreviated herein as VL) and a light chain constant CLregion. The light chain constant region is comprised of one domain, CL. The VHand VLregions can be further sub-divided into regions of hypervariability, termed complementarity determining regions (CDR), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed framework regions (FR). Each VH and VL is composed of three CDRs and four FRs arranged from amino-terminus to carboxy-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. The variable regions of the heavy and light chains contain a binding domain that interacts with an antigen. The constant regions of the antibodies may mediate the binding of the immunoglobulin to host tissues or factors, including various cells of the immune system (e.g., effector cells) and the first component (C1 q) of the classical complement system. As used herein, “CDRs” are defined as the complementarity determining region amino acid sequences of an antibody which are the hypervariable regions of immunoglobulin heavy and light chains. See, e.g., Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 4th U. S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health (1987). Generally, antibodies comprise three heavy chain and three light chain CDRs or CDR regions in the variable region. CDRs provide the majority of contact residues for the binding of the antibody to the antigen or epitope. In certain embodiments, the CDRs regions are delineated using the Kabat system (Kabat, E. A., et al. (1991) Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, Fifth Edition, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, NIH Publication No. 91-3242). In certain embodiments, the CDRs regions are delineated using the PyIgClassify system (Adolf-Bryfogle et al., Nucleic acids research 43.D1 (2015): D432-D438). As used herein, the term “Linker” shall mean a functional group (e.g., chemical or polypeptide) that covalently attaches two or more polypeptides or nucleic acids so that they are connected to one another. As used herein, a “peptide linker” refers to one or more amino acids used to couple two proteins together (e.g., to couple VH and VL domains). In certain embodiments, the linker is a G4S linker. In certain embodiments, the linker comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1, which is provided below: GGGGSGGGGSGGGGS [SEQ ID NO: 1] In certain embodiments, the linker comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2, which is provided below: GGGGSGGGGSGGGSGGGGS [SEQ ID NO: 2]ACTIVE 509948342.218 072734.1771 PATENT In certain embodiments, the linker comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 3, which is provided below: GGGGSGGGGSGGGGSGGGSGGGGS [SEQ ID NO: 3] In certain embodiments, the linker comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 4, which is provided below: GGGGSGGGGSGGGGSGGGGSGGGSGGGGS [SEQ ID NO: 4] In certain embodiments, the linker comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 5, which is provided below: GGGGS [SEQ ID NO: 5] In certain embodiments, the linker comprises or consists of the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 6, which is provided below: GGGGSGGGGS [SEQ ID NO: 6] As used herein, the term “single-chain variable fragment” or “scFv” is a fusion protein of the variable regions of the heavy (VH) and light chains (VL) of an immunoglobulin covalently linked to form a VH::VL heterodimer. The VH and VL are either joined directly or joined by a peptide-encoding linker (e.g., 10, 15, 20, 25 amino acids), which connects the N-terminus of the VH with the Cterminus of the VL, or the C-terminus of the VH with the N-terminus of the VL. The linker is usually rich in glycine for flexibility, as well as serine or threonine for solubility. Despite removal of the constant regions and the introduction of a linker, scFv proteins retain the specificity of the original immunoglobulin. Single chain Fv polypeptide antibodies can be expressed from a nucleic acid including VH- and VLencoding sequences as described by Huston, et al. (Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA, 85:5879-5883, 1988). See, also, U.S. Patent Nos. 5,091,513, 5,132,405 and 4,956,778; and U.S. Patent Publication Nos.20050196754 and 20050196754. Antagonistic scFvs having inhibitory activity have been described (see, e.g., Zhao et al., Hyrbidoma (Larchmt) 2008 27(6):455-51; Peter et al., J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle 2012 August 12; Shieh et al., J Imunol2009183(4):2277-85; Giomarelli et al., Thromb Haemost 200797(6):955-63; Fife eta., J Clin Invst 2006116(8):2252-61; Brocks et al., Immunotechnology 19973(3):173-84; Moosmayer et al., Ther Immunol 19952(10:31-40). Agonistic scFvs having stimulatory activity have been described (see, e.g., Peter et al., J Bioi Chern 200325278(38):36740-7; Xie et al., Nat Biotech 199715(8):768-71; Ledbetter et al., Crit Rev Immunol199717(5-6):427-55; Ho et al., BioChim Biophys Acta 20031638(3):257-66). As used herein, the term “affinity” is meant a measure of binding strength. Affinity can depend on the closeness of stereochemical fit between antibody combining sites and antigen determinants, on the size of the area of contact between them, and / or on the distribution of chargedACTIVE 509948342.219 072734.1771 PATENT and hydrophobic groups. As used herein, the term “affinity” also includes “avidity”, which refers to the strength of the antigen-antibody bond after formation of reversible complexes. Methods for calculating the affinity of an antibody for an antigen are known in the art, including, but not limited to, various antigen-binding experiments, e.g., functional assays (e.g., flow cytometry assay). The term “chimeric antigen receptor” or “CAR” as used herein refers to a molecule comprising an extracellular antigen-binding domain that is fused to an intracellular signaling domain that is capable of activating or stimulating an immune or immunoresponsive cell, and a transmembrane domain. In certain embodiments, the extracellular antigen-binding domain of a CAR comprises an scFv. The scFv can be derived from fusing the variable heavy and light regions of an antibody. Alternatively or additionally, the scFv may be derived from Fab’s (instead of from an antibody, e.g., obtained from Fab libraries). In certain embodiments, the scFv is fused to the transmembrane domain and then to the intracellular signaling domain. In certain embodiments, the CAR is selected to have high binding affinity or avidity for the antigen. As used herein, the term “substantially identical” or “substantially homologous” refers to a polypeptide or a nucleic acid molecule exhibiting at least about 50% identical or homologous to a reference amino acid sequence (for example, any of the amino acid sequences described herein) or a reference nucleic acid sequence (for example, any of the nucleic acid sequences described herein). In certain embodiments, such a sequence is at least about 60%, at least about 65%, at least about 70%, at least about 75%, at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 99%, or at least about 100% identical or homologous to the amino acid sequence or the nucleic acid sequence used for comparison. Sequence identity can be measured by using sequence analysis software (for example, Sequence Analysis Software Package of the Genetics Computer Group, University of Wisconsin Biotechnology Center, 1710 University Avenue, Madison, Wis.53705, BLAST, BESTFIT, GAP, or PILEUP / PRETTYBOX programs). Such software matches identical or similar sequences by assigning degrees of homology to various substitutions, deletions, and / or other modifications. Conservative substitutions typically include substitutions within the following groups: glycine, alanine; valine, isoleucine, leucine; aspartic acid, glutamic acid, asparagine, glutamine; serine, threonine; lysine, arginine; and phenylalanine, tyrosine. In an exemplary approach to determining the degree of identity, a BLAST program may be used, with a probability score between e-3 and e-100 indicating a closely related sequence. The percent homology between two amino acid sequences can be determined using the algorithm of E. Meyers and W. Miller (Comput. Appl. Biosci., 4:11-17 (1988)) which has been incorporated into the ALIGN program (version 2.0), using a PAM120 weight residue table, a gap length penalty of 12 and a gap penalty of 4. In addition, the percent homology between two aminoACTIVE 509948342.220 072734.1771 PATENT acid sequences can be determined using the Needleman and Wunsch (J. Mol. Biol. 48:444-453 (1970)) algorithm which has been incorporated into the GAP program in the GCG software package (available at www.gcg.com), using either a Blossum 62 matrix or a PAM250 matrix, and a gap weight of 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, or 4 and a length weight of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Additionally or alternatively, the amino acids sequences of the presently disclosed subject matter can further be used as a “query sequence” to perform a search against public databases to, for example, identify related sequences. Such searches can be performed using the XBLAST program (version 2.0) of Altschul, et al. (1990) J. Mol. Biol.215:403-10. BLAST protein searches can be performed with the XBLAST program, score = 50, wordlength = 3 to obtain amino acid sequences homologous to the specified sequences (e.g., heavy and light chain variable region sequences) disclosed herein. To obtain gapped alignments for comparison purposes, Gapped BLAST can be utilized as described in Altschul et al., (1997) Nucleic Acids Res.25(17):3389-3402. When utilizing BLAST and Gapped BLAST programs, the default parameters of the respective programs (e.g., XBLAST and NBLAST) can be used. As used herein, the term “a conservative sequence modification” refers to an amino acid modification that does not significantly affect or alter the binding characteristics of the presently disclosed antigen recognizing receptors (e.g., the extracellular antigen-binding domain of the CAR) comprising the amino acid sequence. Conservative modifications can include amino acid substitutions, additions and deletions. Modifications can be introduced into the extracellular antigen-binding domain of the presently disclosed CAR by standard techniques known in the art, such as site-directed mutagenesis and PCR-mediated mutagenesis. Amino acids can be classified into groups according to their physicochemical properties such as charge and polarity. Conservative amino acid substitutions are ones in which the amino acid residue is replaced with an amino acid within the same group. For example, amino acids can be classified by charge: positively-charged amino acids include lysine, arginine, histidine, negatively-charged amino acids include aspartic acid, glutamic acid, neutral charge amino acids include alanine, asparagine, cysteine, glutamine, glycine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, and valine. In addition, amino acids can be classified by polarity: polar amino acids include arginine (basic polar), asparagine, aspartic acid (acidic polar), glutamic acid (acidic polar), glutamine, histidine (basic polar), lysine (basic polar), serine, threonine, and tyrosine; non-polar amino acids include alanine, cysteine, glycine, isoleucine, leucine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, tryptophan, and valine. Thus, one or more amino acid residues within a CDR region can be replaced with other amino acid residues from the same group and the altered antibody can be tested for retained function (i.e., the functions set forth in (c) through (l) above) using the functional assays described herein. In certain embodiments, no more than one, no moreACTIVE 509948342.221 072734.1771 PATENT than two, no more than three, no more than four, no more than five residues within a specified sequence or a CDR region are altered. By “disease” is meant any condition, disease or disorder that damages or interferes with the normal function of a cell, tissue, or organ, e.g., neoplasm, and pathogen infection of cell. By “effective amount” is meant an amount sufficient to have a therapeutic effect. In certain embodiments, an “effective amount” is an amount sufficient to arrest, ameliorate, or inhibit the continued proliferation, growth, or metastasis (e.g., invasion, or migration) of a neoplasm. By “endogenous” is meant a nucleic acid molecule or polypeptide that is normally expressed in a cell or tissue. By “exogenous” is meant a nucleic acid molecule or polypeptide that is not endogenously present in a cell. The term “exogenous” would therefore encompass any recombinant nucleic acid molecule or polypeptide expressed in a cell, such as foreign, heterologous, and over-expressed nucleic acid molecules and polypeptides. By “exogenous” nucleic acid is meant a nucleic acid not present in a native wild-type cell; for example, an exogenous nucleic acid may vary from an endogenous counterpart by sequence, by position / location, or both. For clarity, an exogenous nucleic acid may have the same or different sequence relative to its native endogenous counterpart; it may be introduced by genetic engineering into the cell itself or a progenitor thereof, and may optionally be linked to alternative control sequences, such as a non-native promoter or secretory sequence. By “increase” is meant to alter positively by at least about 5%. An alteration may be by about 5%, about 10%, about 25%, about 30%, about 50%, about 75%, about 100% or more. By “reduce” is meant to alter negatively by at least about 5%. An alteration may be by about 5%, about 10%, about 25%, about 30%, about 50%, about 75%, or even by about 100%. The terms “isolated,” “purified,” or “biologically pure” refer to material that is free to varying degrees from components which normally accompany it as found in its native state. “Isolate” denotes a degree of separation from original source or surroundings. “Purify” denotes a degree of separation that is higher than isolation. A “purified” or “biologically pure” protein is sufficiently free of other materials such that any impurities do not materially affect the biological properties of the protein or cause other adverse consequences. That is, a nucleic acid or peptide is purified if it is substantially free of cellular material, viral material, or culture medium when produced by recombinant DNA techniques, or chemical precursors or other chemicals when chemically synthesized. Purity and homogeneity are typically determined using analytical chemistry techniques, for example, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis or high-performance liquid chromatography. The term “purified” can denote that a nucleic acid or protein gives rise to essentially one band in an electrophoretic gel. For a protein that can be subjected to modifications,ACTIVE 509948342.222 072734.1771 PATENT for example, phosphorylation or glycosylation, different modifications may give rise to different isolated proteins, which can be separately purified. By “isolated cell” is meant a cell that is separated from the molecular and / or cellular components that naturally accompany the cell. The term “antigen-binding domain” as used herein refers to a domain capable of specifically binding a particular antigenic determinant or set of antigenic determinants present on a cell. By “neoplasm” or “malignancy” is meant a disease characterized by the pathological proliferation of a cell or tissue and its subsequent migration to or invasion of other tissues or organs. Neoplasm growth is typically uncontrolled and progressive, and occurs under conditions that would not elicit, or would cause cessation of, multiplication of normal cells. Neoplasm can affect a variety of cell types, tissues, or organs, including but not limited to an organ selected from bladder, bone, brain, breast, cartilage, glia, esophagus, fallopian tube, gallbladder, heart, intestines, kidney, liver, lung, lymph node, nervous tissue, ovaries, pancreas, prostate, skeletal muscle, skin, spinal cord, spleen, stomach, testes, thymus, thyroid, trachea, urogenital tract, ureter, urethra, uterus, and vagina, or a tissue or cell type thereof. Neoplasms include cancers, such as sarcomas, carcinomas, or plasmacytomas (malignant tumor of the plasma cells). In certain embodiments, the neoplasm is cancer. By “specifically binds” is meant a polypeptide or a fragment thereof that recognizes and binds to a biological molecule of interest (e.g., a polypeptide), but which does not substantially recognize and bind other molecules in a sample, for example, a biological sample, which naturally includes a presently disclosed polypeptide. The term “tumor antigen” as used herein refers to an antigen (e.g., a polypeptide) that is uniquely or differentially expressed on a tumor cell compared to a normal or non- neoplastic cell. In certain embodiments, a tumor antigen includes any polypeptide expressed by a tumor that is capable of activating or inducing an immune response via an antigen recognizing receptor or capable of suppressing an immune response via receptor-ligand binding. The terms “comprises”, “comprising”, and are intended to have the broad meaning ascribed to them in U.S. Patent Law and can mean “includes”, “including” and the like. As used herein, “treatment” refers to clinical intervention in an attempt to alter the disease course of the individual or cell being treated, and can be performed either for prophylaxis or during the course of clinical pathology. Therapeutic effects of treatment include, without limitation, preventing occurrence or recurrence of disease, alleviation of symptoms, diminishment of any direct or indirect pathological consequences of the disease, preventing metastases, decreasing the rate of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, and remission orACTIVE 509948342.223 072734.1771 PATENT improved prognosis. By preventing progression of a disease or disorder, a treatment can prevent deterioration due to a disorder in an affected or diagnosed subject or a subject suspected of having the disorder, but also a treatment may prevent the onset of the disorder or a symptom of the disorder in a subject at risk for the disorder or suspected of having the disorder. An “individual” or “subject” herein is a vertebrate, such as a human or non-human animal, for example, a mammal. Mammals include, but are not limited to, humans, primates, farm animals, sport animals, rodents and pets. Non-limiting examples of non-human animal subjects include rodents such as mice, rats, hamsters, and guinea pigs; rabbits; dogs; cats; sheep; pigs; goats; cattle; horses; and non-human primates such as apes and monkeys. The term “immunocompromised” as used herein refers to a subject who has an immunodeficiency. The subject is very vulnerable to opportunistic infections, infections caused by organisms that usually do not cause disease in a person with a healthy immune system, but can affect people with a poorly functioning or suppressed immune system. As used herein, “a functional fragment” of a molecule or polypeptide includes a fragment of the molecule or polypeptide that retains at least about 80%, at least about 85%, at least about 90%, at least about 95%, or at least about 100% of the primary function of the molecule or polypeptide. Other aspects of the presently disclosed subject matter are described in the following disclosure and are within the ambit of the presently disclosed subject matter. 2.

In certain embodiments, the cell is a T cell, and the antigen-recognizing receptor is integrated at a locus within the genome of the T cell. In certain embodiments, the locus is not aACTIVE 509948342.254 072734.1771 PATENT TRAC locus or a TRBC locus. In certain embodiments, the cell is a T cell, and the first antigen- recognizing receptor is not integrated at a TRAC locus. 3. Inhibitory Polynucleotides The presently disclosed subject matter provides cells comprising an antigen-recognizing receptor that targets an antigen further comprising an inhibitory polynucleotide that downregulates the expression levels of a gene. In certain embodiments, the gene is TRAC. In certain embodiments, the gene is TRBC1. In certain embodiments, the gene is TRBC2. In certain embodiments, the gene is CD70. In certain embodiments, the inhibitory polynucleotide downregulates the expression levels of two of more genes. For example, but without any limitation, the inhibitory polynucleotide downregulates the expression levels of TRBC1 and TRBC2. In certain embodiments, the inhibitory polynucleotide comprises an RNA interference (RNAi) molecule. Non-limiting examples of RNAi molecules include short hairpin RNA (shRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), double stranded RNA (dsRNA), or antisense oligonucleotide. In certain embodiments, the inhibitory polynucleotide is a short hairpin RNA (shRNA). Single-stranded hairpin ribonucleic acids (shRNAs) are short duplexes where the sense and antisense strands are linked by a hairpin loop. shRNAs include a stem-loop structure that can be transcribed in cells from an RNA polymerase II or RNA polymerase III promoter on a vector (e.g., a plasmid, a viral vector, etc.). Once expressed, shRNAs are processed into RNAi species. Expression of shRNA from a vector is stable and provides advantages over the use of certain alternatives (e.g., synthetic siRNAs). shRNAs are synthesized in the nucleus of cells, further processed and transported to the cytoplasm, and then incorporated into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) for activity. The shRNAs are converted into active siRNA molecules (which are capable of binding to, sequestering, and / or preventing the translation of mRNA transcripts encoded by target genes). The Argonaute family of proteins is the major component of RISC. Within the Argonaute family of proteins, only Ago2 contains endonuclease activity that is capable of cleaving and releasing the passenger strand from the stem portion of the shRNA molecule. The remaining three members of Argonaute family, Agol, Ago3 and Ago4, which do not have identifiable endonuclease activity, are also assembled into RISC and are believed to function through a cleavage-independent manner. Thus, RISC can be characterized as having cleavage-dependent and cleavage-independent pathways.

Non-limiting examples of suitable promoters include constitutive and inducible promoters, inducible RNA polymerase II (pol II)-based promoters, EF1a promoters, RNA polymerase I or III-based promoters, the pol II dependent viral promoters (e.g., CMV-IE promoter), the pol III U6 promoters, H1 promoters, bacteriophage T7 promoters. In certain embodiments, the promoter can be active in the targeted cells, e.g., it can express at least one recombinant nucleic acid in immune cells using an immune cell-specific promoter. Introduction of such constructs into host cells can be affected under conditions whereby two or more inhibitory polynucleotides that are contained within a nucleic acid precursor transcript initially reside within a single primary transcript, such that the separate RNA molecules (for example, shRNA each comprising its own stem-loop structure) are subsequently excised from such precursor transcript by an endogenous ribonuclease. The resulting mature recombinant nucleic acids (e.g., shRNAs) can then induce degradation, and / or translation repression, of target gene mRNA transcripts produced in the cell. Alternatively, each of the precursor stemloop structures can be produced as part of a separate transcript, in which case each inhibitory polynucleotide includes its own promoter and transcription terminator sequences. The stem-loop structures of the shRNA recombinant nucleic acids described herein can be about 40 to about 100 nucleotides long. The stem region can be about 15-45 nucleotides in length (or more), or about 20 to about 30 nucleotides in length. In certain embodiments, the stem region is 22 nucleotides in length. In certain embodiments, the stem region is 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27 28 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, or 45 nucleotides in length. In certain embodiments, the stem can include a complementary duplex. In certain embodiments, the stem can include bulges or interior loops on either arm. The number of such bulges and asymmetric interior loops are preferably few in number (e.g., about 1, about 2, or about 3) and are about 3 nucleotides or less in size. The terminal loop portion can include about 4 or more nucleotides, but preferably not more than about 25. The loop portion can be about 6 to about 15 nucleotides in size.

Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) CARs are engineered receptors, which graft or confer a specificity of interest onto an immune effector cell. CARs can be used to graft the specificity of a monoclonal antibody onto a T cell; with transfer of their coding sequence facilitated by retroviral vectors. There are three generations of CARs. “First generation” CARs are typically composed of an extracellular antigen-binding domain (e.g., an scFv) that binds to a target antigen, and an intracellular signaling domain. In certain embodiments, the CAR further comprises a transmembrane domain. “First generation” CARs can provide de novo antigen recognition and cause activation of both CD4+and CD8+T cells through their CD3ζ chain signaling domain in a single fusion molecule, independent of HLA-mediated antigen presentation. “Second generation” CARs include a signaling domain of a co-stimulatory molecule (e.g., CD28, 4-1BB, ICOS, OX40, CD27, CD40,NKG2D, DAP-10, CD2, CD150, CD226) to the intracellular signaling domain of the CAR to provide co-stimulation signals to the cell (e.g., T cell or NK cell). “Second generation” CARs comprise those that provide both co-stimulation (e.g., CD28 or 4-1BB) and activation (CD3ζ). “Third generation” CARs comprise those that provide multiple co-stimulation (e.g., CD28 and 4-1BB) and activation (CD3ζ). In certain embodiments, the second antigen-recognizing receptor is a CAR comprising an extracellular antigen-binding domain that binds to the second antigen, and an intracellular signaling domain.

In certain embodiments, the extracellular antigen-binding domain of the CAR (for example, an scFv) binds to the second antigen with a KD of about 1 × 10-8M or less. Binding of the extracellular antigen-binding domain (for example, in an scFv) can be confirmed by, for example, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), radioimmunoassay (RIA), FACS analysis, bioassay (e.g., growth inhibition), or Western Blot assay. Each of these assays generally detect the presence of protein-antibody complexes of particular interest by employing a labeled reagent (e.g., an antibody, or an scFv) specific for the complex of interest. For example, the scFv can be radioactively labeled and used in a radioimmunoassay (RIA) (see, for example, Weintraub, B., Principles of Radioimmunoassays, Seventh Training Course on Radioligand Assay Techniques, The Endocrine Society, March, 1986, which is incorporated by reference herein). The radioactive isotope can be detected by such means as the use of a γ counter or a scintillation counter or by autoradiography. In certain embodiments, the extracellular antigen- binding domain of the CAR is labeled with a fluorescent marker. Non-limiting examples of fluorescent markers include green fluorescent protein (GFP), blue fluorescent protein (e.g., EBFP, EBFP2, Azurite, and mKalama1), cyan fluorescent protein (e.g., ECFP, Cerulean, and CyPet), and yellow fluorescent protein (e.g., YFP, Citrine, Venus, and YPet). The extracellular antigen-binding domain can comprise or be an scFv, a Fab (which is optionally crosslinked), or a F(ab)2. In certain embodiments, any of the foregoing molecules may be comprised in a fusion protein with a heterologous sequence to form the extracellular antigen- binding domain. In certain embodiments, the extracellular antigen-binding domain comprises or is an scFv. In certain embodiments, the scFv is a human scFv. In certain embodiments, the scFv is a humanized scFv.

Chimeric Ligand Receptors In certain embodiments, the second antigen-recognizing receptor is a chimeric ligand receptor that comprises a ligand or a portion thereof that binds to a second antigen. In certain embodiments, the chimeric ligand receptor further comprises a transmembrane domain and an intracellular signaling domain. In certain embodiments, the transmembrane domain is fused to the ligand or portion thereof.

In certain embodiments, the intracellular signaling domain of the chimeric ligand receptor comprises a CD3ζ polypeptide (e.g., as disclosed in Section 4.1.2.3). Additional information on the presently disclosed chimeric ligand receptor can be found in Sauer et al., Blood (2021) 138 (4): 318–330, the content of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety. 4.2.3. Delivery of the Second Antigen-Recognizing Receptor In certain embodiments, the second antigen-recognizing receptor is delivered to the cell by a viral method. In certain embodiments, the viral method comprises a viral vector. In certain embodiments, the viral vector is a retroviral vector (e.g., a gammaretroviral vector or a lentiviral vector). Other viral vectors include adenoviral vectors, adeno-associated viral vectors, vaccinia viruses, bovine papilloma viruses, and herpes viruses (e.g., such as Epstein-Barr Virus). In certain embodiments, the second antigen-recognizing receptor is delivered to the cell by a non-viral method. Any targeted genome editing methods can also be used to deliver the second antigen-recognizing receptor to the cell. 4.2. CCRs In certain embodiments, a presently disclosed cell can further comprise a CCR. The term “chimeric co-stimulating receptor” or “CCR” refers to a chimeric receptor that binds to an antigen and provides a co-stimulatory signal, but does not provide a T-cell activation signal to a cell comprising the CCR. Various CCRs are described in US20020018783 the contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entireties. CCRs mimic co-stimulatory signals, but unlike, CARs, do not provide a T-cell activation signal. In certain embodiments, the CCR lacks a CD3ζ polypeptide. CCRs provide co-stimulation signal (e.g., a CD28-like signal or 4-1BB-like signal), in the absence of the natural co-stimulatory ligand on the antigen-presenting cell. A combinatorial antigen recognition, i.e., use of a CCR in combination with a CAR, can augment T-cell reactivity against the dual-antigen expressing T cells, thereby improving selective tumor targeting. Kloss et al., describe a strategy that integrates combinatorial antigen recognition, split signaling, and, critically, balanced strength of T-cell activation and co-stimulation to generate T cells that eliminate target cells that express a combination of antigens while sparing cells that express each antigen individually (Kloss et al., Nature Biotechnology (2013);31(1):71-75, the content of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety). With this approach, T-cell activation requires CAR-ACTIVE 509948342.293 072734.1771 PATENT mediated recognition of one antigen, whereas co-stimulation is independently mediated by a CCR specific for a second antigen. To achieve tumor selectivity, the combinatorial antigen recognition approach diminishes the efficiency of T-cell activation to a level where it is ineffective without rescue provided by simultaneous CCR recognition of the second antigen. In certain embodiments, the CCR comprises an extracellular antigen-binding domain that binds to a third antigen and an intracellular domain that is capable of delivering a costimulatory signal to the cell but does not alone deliver an activation signal to the cell. In certain embodiments, the CCR further comprises a transmembrane domain. In certain embodiments, the intracellular domain of the CCR comprises at least an intracellular domain of a co-stimulatory molecule or a portion thereof. In certain embodiments, the co-stimulatory molecule is selected from the group consisting of CD28, 4-1BB, OX40, CD27, CD40, CD154, CD97, CD11a / CD18, ICOS, DAP-10, CD2, CD150, CD226, and NKG2D.

Other non-viral means for gene transfer include transfection in vitro using calcium phosphate, DEAE dextran, electroporation, and protoplast fusion. Liposomes can also be potentially beneficial for delivery of DNA into a cell. Transplantation of normal genes into the affected tissues of a subject can also be accomplished by transferring a normal nucleic acid into a cultivatable cell type ex vivo (e.g., an autologous or heterologous primary cell or progeny thereof), after which the cell (or its descendants) are injected into a targeted tissue or are injected systemically. Transient expression may be obtained by RNA electroporation.

Clustered regularly-interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) system is a genome editing tool discovered in prokaryotic cells. When utilized for genome editing, the system includes Cas9 (a protein able to modify DNA utilizing crRNA as its guide), CRISPR RNA (crRNA,ACTIVE 509948342.2110 072734.1771 PATENT contains the RNA used by Cas9 to guide it to the correct section of host DNA along with a region that binds to tracrRNA (generally in a hairpin loop form) forming an active complex with Cas9), trans-activating crRNA (tracrRNA, binds to crRNA and forms an active complex with Cas9), and an optional section of DNA repair template (DNA that guides the cellular repair process allowing insertion of a specific DNA sequence). CRISPR / Cas9 often employs a plasmid to transfect the target cells. The crRNA needs to be designed for each application as this is the sequence that Cas9 uses to identify and directly bind to the target DNA in a cell. The repair template carrying CAR expression cassette need also be designed for each application, as it must overlap with the sequences on either side of the cut and code for the insertion sequence. Multiple crRNA's and the tracrRNA can be packaged together to form a single-guide RNA (sgRNA). This sgRNA can be joined together with the Cas9 gene and made into a plasmid in order to be transfected into cells. In certain embodiments, the CRISPR system comprises base editors.
