AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing immunotherapy strategies that rely on PD-1/PD-L1 blockade are difficult to stabilize and continuously relieve T cell suppression when PD-L1 expression in tumor cells fluctuates dynamically, leading to limited treatment efficacy or drug resistance.

Method used

A chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) expressing an extracellular PD-L1 binding domain and binding to a secretory interferon fusion protein was designed to enhance the killing power of T cells against tumor cells. By expressing fusion proteins such as IFN or IFN-IL-2 in PD1-CAR-T cells, tumor cells were stimulated to increase PD-L1 expression to enhance killing power.

Benefits of technology

Under the condition of fluctuating PD-L1 expression in tumor cells under external stimulation, T cell function is continuously activated, which enhances the killing and inhibitory effects on tumor cells and strengthens the persistence and effectiveness of treatment.

Abstract

The present application discloses immune effector cells expressing extracellular PD-L1 binding domain CAR and linking secretory interferon fusion protein and application methods thereof. The protein construct involved in the immune effector cells includes: (a) a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) containing a PD-L1 binding domain; and (b) a secretory fusion protein containing IFN. The protein construct stimulates tumor cells to increase the expression amount or frequency of PD-L1, thereby further enhancing the killing ability of PD1-CAR-T cells on target cells and more effectively inhibiting or killing tumor cells.
