AI Technical Summary
Current autologous and allogeneic immunotherapy using chimeric antigen receptor-expressing immune cells faces challenges such as graft-versus-host disease, host rejection, and immunosuppression, with existing gene editing methods risking genomic rearrangements that impair cell efficacy.
Genetically modify immune cells to lack functional TRAC or reduce beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) expression, and employ multiplex editing to alter multiple gene sequences, including TRAC, PDCD1, CD52, CD7, and others, using nucleic acid programmable DNA binding proteins to reduce immunogenicity and enhance anti-neoplastic activity.
The modified immune cells exhibit reduced immunogenicity and increased anti-neoplastic activity with minimal genomic disruptions, improving therapeutic efficacy and safety by minimizing graft-versus-host disease and immunosuppression.

[Technical Field]
[0001] Incorporation by Reference This application is a continuation of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 793,277, filed January 16, 2019, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 793,277, filed April 16, 2019. This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 839,870, filed on January 29, 2014. [Background technology]
[0002] Autologous and allogeneic immunotherapies involve the administration of immune cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors to subjects. A neoplasm treatment approach: generating immune cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) To do this, immune cells are first isolated from the subject (autologous) or from a donor different from the subject receiving treatment (allogeneic). ) and genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor. The resulting cells are expressing a chimeric antigen receptor on its cell surface (e.g., CAR T cells) and administering them to a subject. Thus, the chimeric antigen receptor binds to a marker expressed by the neoplastic cell. Interaction with the CAR activates the CAR-T cells, which then kill the neoplastic cells. However, for autologous or allogeneic cell therapy to be effective and efficient, T cell signaling must be regulated. Significant conditions and cellular responses, such as inhibition of cellular signaling, must be overcome or avoided. For allogeneic cell therapy, graft-versus-host disease and host rejection of CAR-T cells pose additional challenges. Editing genes involved in these processes could improve CAR-T cell function and immune suppression. or enhance resistance to inhibition, but current methods for performing such editing are This methodology induces large genomic rearrangements in CAR-T cells, thereby impacting their efficacy. Therefore, it is necessary to make immune cells, especially CAR-T cells, more positive. There is a significant need in the art for accurately modifying the phenotype of phenotype. This application addresses this and other important needs. It is directed towards the needs. Summary of the Invention

[0306] The term "Cas9" or "Cas9 domain" refers to a Cas9 protein or a fragment thereof (e.g., Cas9 Active, inactive, or partially active DNA cleavage domains of Cas9 and / or gRNA binding of Cas9 Cas9 nuclease refers to an RNA-guided nuclease containing a c domain. asn1 nuclease or CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindrome) CRISPR is sometimes called a mobile genetic element (viral repeat)-associated nuclease. CRISPR is an adaptive immune system that provides defense against pathogens (e.g., viruses, transposable elements, and conjugative plasmids). The star comprises a spacer, a sequence complementary to the preceding mobile element, and a target invading nucleic acid. CRISPR clusters are transcribed and processed into CRISPR RNA (crRNA). Type II CRISPR In our system, the correct processing of pre-crRNA is mediated by a transcoding small RNA (tracrRNA), tracrRNA requires the ribonuclease 3 (rnc) and Cas9 protein. This guides the processing of pre-crRNA by Cas9 / crRNA / tracrRNA. The RNA endonuclease cleaves a linear or circular dsDNA target complementary to the spacer. The target strand that is not complementary to the crRNA is first endonucleolytically cleaved and then exonucleolytically cleaved. In nature, DNA binding and cleavage typically occurs via transcription. However, single guide RNA ("sgRNA" or The gene encoding the gene for the gene encoding the tracrRNA (gNRA for short) is engineered to incorporate aspects of both the crRNA and tracrRNA into a single RNA species. For example, Jinek M., Chylinski K., Fonfara I., Hauer M., Doudna J. See Charpentier E. Science 337: 816-821 (2012) (the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference). Cas9 targets short motifs (PAMs) in the CRISPR repeats. or protospacer adjacent motif) to help distinguish self from non-self. The sequence and structure of Cas9 nuclease are well known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, "Complete ete genome sequence of an Ml strain of Streptococcus pyogenes."

Cas9 orthologs include, but are not limited to: Although not exclusively S. pyogenes, S. thermophilus have been described in various species, including S. pyogenes and S. thermophilus. Additional suitable Cas9 nucleases and sequences will be apparent to those of skill in the art based on the present disclosure. Such Cas9 nucleases and sequences are described in Chylinski, Rhun, and Charpentier, "The tracrRNA and Cas9 families of type II CRISPR-Cas immunity systems" (2013) R NA Biology 10: 5, 726-737. , the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. In some embodiments, Cas9 Nucleases have an inactive (e.g., inactivated) DNA cleavage domain, i.e., their C as9 is a nickase.
[0307] Nuclease-inactivated Cas9 proteins are interchangeably referred to as "dCas9" proteins (nuclease-"d The Cas9 protein (or Cas9 protein) has an inactive DNA cleavage domain. Methods for generating the ribosomal protein (or fragments thereof) are known (e.g., Jinek et al., Science. 337: 816-8 21(2012); Qi et al, “Repurposing CRISPR as an RNA-Guided Platform for Sequence-S pecific Control of Gene Expression" (2013) Cell. 28; 152(5): 1173-83 (each content (The text is incorporated herein by reference.) For example, the DNA cleavage domain of Cas9 can be expressed as a HNH nucleic acid. It is known to contain two subdomains: the leucine subdomain and the RuvC1 subdomain. The HNH subdomain cleaves the strand complementary to the gRNA, while the RuvC1 subdomain cleaves the non-complementary strand. Mutations within these subdomains can suppress the nuclease activity of Cas9. For example, mutations D10A and H840A completely abolish the nuclease activity of S. pyogenes Cas9. Activates (Jinek et al, Science. 337: 816-821(2012); Qi et al, Cell. 28; 152(5) : 1173-83 (2013)). In some embodiments, proteins comprising fragments of Cas9 are provided. For example, in some embodiments, the protein contains one of the following two Cas9 domains: (1) a gRNA binding domain of Cas9; and (2) a DNA cleavage domain of Cas9. In this context, proteins containing Cas9 or fragments thereof are referred to as "Cas9 variants." The variants share homology with Cas9 or a fragment thereof. For example, the Cas9 variants are At least about 70% identical, at least about 80% identical, at least about 90% identical, at least about At least about 95% identical, at least about 96% identical, at least about 97% identical, at least about 98% identical, at least about 99% identical, At least about 99% identical, at least about 99.5% identical, or at least about 99.9% identical. In some embodiments, the Cas9 mutant has 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or more functional groups compared to wild-type Cas9. 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 21, 24, 25, 26, 27, 2 8, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 4 In some embodiments, the Cas gene may have 8, 49, 50 or more amino acid changes. 9 variants include a fragment of Cas9 (e.g., the gRNA binding domain or the DNA cleavage domain), The fragment is at least about 70% identical to the corresponding fragment of wild-type Cas9, and at least about 80% Identical, at least about 90% identical, at least about 95% identical, at least about 96% identical % identical, at least about 97% identical, at least about 98% identical, at least about 9 9% identical, at least about 99.5% identical, or at least about 99.9% identical.

In one embodiment, the term "catalyzed polypeptide" refers to a polypeptide or fragment thereof that is capable of catalyzing , cytidine deaminase converts cytosine to uracil or 5-methylcytosine to thymine PmCDA1 (Petromyzon marinus cytosine deaminase) from Petromyzon marinus 1), or AID (activating inducer inhibitor) derived from mammals (e.g., humans, pigs, cows, horses, monkeys, etc.) AICDA (anti-inducible cytidine deaminase), and APOBEC are exemplary cytidine deaminases. do.
