[0001] Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 GENETICALLY ENGINEERED CELLS HAVING MULTI-TRANSMEMBRANE DOMAIN CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTORS UTILIZING G PROTEIN-COUPLED RECEPTOR SCAFFOLDS, AND USES THEREOF REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims priority to U.S. Patent Application No.63 / 597,762 filed November 10, 2023, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entireties. TECHNICAL FIELD This application provides genetically engineered induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and derivative cells having multi-transmembrane domain chimeric antigen receptors utilizing G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) scaffolds. Also provided are uses of the iPSCs or derivative cells thereof to express a GPCR chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) for allogenic cell therapy. Also provided are related vectors, polynucleotides, and pharmaceutical compositions. REFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY This application contains a sequence listing, which is submitted electronically as an XML formatted sequence listing with a file name “066461-25WO1 Sequence Listing.xml” having a file size of 389 kilobytes, and a creation date of October 28, 2024. The sequence listing submitted via Patent Center is part of the specification and is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE All publications, patents, and patent applications mentioned in this specification are herein incorporated by reference to the same extent as if each individual publication, patent, or patent application was specifically and individually indicated to be incorporated by reference. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 BACKGROUND Conventional CARs consist of an antigen-binding domain (e.g., derived from an antibody or antibody-like molecule), a flexible hinge / spacer, a single transmembrane domain (e.g., derived from CD28 or CD8), and intracellular domains that incorporate the intracellular domain of CD3z and one or more costimulatory domains (e.g., of CD28 or 4-1BB / CD137). While the extracellular domain of the CAR engages the target antigen and allows for the formation of an immune synapse, the intracellular domains of the CAR transduce immune effector signals from the intracellular domains and lead to activation, proliferation, cytokine secretion, and cytotoxicity against the target antigen-bearing cell. Research on CARs in recent years has focused on engineering, optimizing, and adding functionality into the receptors. Multiple antigen specificities can be engineered into the CAR extracellular domain by incorporating additional binders, or additional or better effector responses can be conferred to CAR T or NK cells by adding intracellular domains from other immune receptors (e.g., DAP10, ICOS, DNAM1, and LAT). However, since traditional CARs have a single transmembrane domain, any additional intra- or extracellular domains must be built onto the receptor in a linear fashion. For extracellular domains, this increases the distance of the binding moieties from the effector cell membrane, which can reduce CAR functionality. Similarly, for intracellular domains, increased distance from the cell membrane may reduce accessibility of those domains to membrane-bound kinases, such as lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (Lck), which are partly involved in transducing the effector response. Current alternatives to these approaches include the engineering of additional receptors beyond the primary CAR that incorporate alternative intracellular domains, or engineering an additional CAR in tandem with the primary CAR. While expressing multiple receptors can be a route to greater efficacy, it also presents challenges. For iPSC-derived allogeneic cell therapies in which transgenes are introduced via CRISPR gene editing, engineering multiple receptors involves additional gene editing loci that must maintain robust expression throughout the differentiation process. Alternatively, one could use a single locus, multi-cistronic system (e.g., 2A), however, expression of each coding sequence can be inconsistent. In the context of autologous cell therapies, in which the CAR is transduced into effector cells by a viral Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 vector, the packaging size of the transgene is limiting, with too large DNA cassettes inhibiting viral production and transduction. These challenges with multiple receptor engineering also preclude the exploration of further receptors beyond two, due to the same challenges. To address these challenges, the present disclosure provides iPSCs and derivative cells that utilize G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) as a protein scaffold for the incorporation of additional intra- and extracellular domains by engineering the intracellular and extracellular loops of GPCRs to carry the costimulatory or activating domains of immune effector receptors (as intracellular domains), or antigen binding moieties such as VHH and scFv (as extracellular domains).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Various publications, articles and patents are cited or described in the background and throughout the specification; each of these references is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. Discussion of documents, acts, materials, devices, articles or the like which has been included in the present specification is for the purpose of providing context for the invention. Such discussion is not an admission that any or all of these matters form part of the prior art with respect to any inventions disclosed or claimed. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood to one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains. Otherwise, certain terms used herein have the meanings as set forth in the specification. It must be noted that as used herein and in the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” include plural reference unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Unless otherwise stated, any numerical values, such as a concentration or a concentration range described herein, are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about.” Thus, a numerical value typically includes ± 10% of the recited value. For example, a concentration of 1 mg / mL includes 0.9 mg / mL to 1.1 mg / mL. Likewise, a concentration range of 1% to 10% (w / v) includes 0.9% (w / v) to 11% (w / v). As used herein, the use of a numerical range expressly includes all possible subranges, all individual numerical values within that range, including integers within such ranges and fractions of the values unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Unless otherwise indicated, the term “at least” preceding a series of elements is to be understood to refer to every element in the series. Those skilled in the art will recognize or be able to ascertain using no more than routine experimentation, many equivalents to the specific embodiments of the application described herein. Such equivalents are intended to be encompassed by the application. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 As used herein, the terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes,” “including,” “has,” “having,” “contains” or “containing,” or any other variation thereof, will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or group of integers but not the exclusion of any other integer or group of integers and are intended to be non-exclusive or open-ended. For example, a composition, a mixture, a process, a method, an article, or an apparatus that comprises a list of elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but can include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such composition, mixture, process, method, article, or apparatus. Further, unless expressly stated to the contrary, “or” refers to an inclusive or and not to an exclusive or. For example, a condition A or B is satisfied by any one of the following: A is true (or present), and B is false (or not present), A is false (or not present) and B is true (or present), and both A and B are true (or present). As used herein, the conjunctive term “and / or” between multiple recited elements is understood as encompassing both individual and combined options. For instance, where two elements are conjoined by “and / or,” a first option refers to the applicability of the first element without the second. A second option refers to the applicability of the second element without the first. A third option refers to the applicability of the first and second elements together. Any one of these options is understood to fall within the meaning, and therefore satisfy the requirement of the term “and / or” as used herein. Concurrent applicability of more than one of the options is also understood to fall within the meaning, and therefore satisfy the requirement of the term “and / or.” As used herein, the term “consists of,” or variations such as “consist of” or “consisting of,” as used throughout the specification and claims, indicate the inclusion of any recited integer or group of integers, but that no additional integer or group of integers can be added to the specified method, structure, or composition. As used herein, the term “consists essentially of,” or variations such as “consist essentially of” or “consisting essentially of,” as used throughout the specification and claims, indicate the inclusion of any recited integer or group of integers, and the optional inclusion of any recited integer or group of integers that do not materially change the basic or novel properties of the specified method, structure or composition. See M.P.E.P. § 2111.03. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 As used herein, “subject” means any animal, preferably a mammal, most preferably a human. The term “mammal” as used herein, encompasses any mammal. Examples of mammals include, but are not limited to, cows, horses, sheep, pigs, cats, dogs, mice, rats, rabbits, guinea pigs, monkeys, humans, etc., more preferably a human. It should also be understood that the terms “about,” “approximately,” “generally,” “substantially,” and like terms, used herein when referring to a dimension or characteristic of a component of the preferred invention, indicate that the described dimension / characteristic is not a strict boundary or parameter and does not exclude minor variations therefrom that are functionally the same or similar, as would be understood by one having ordinary skill in the art. At a minimum, such references that include a numerical parameter would include variations that, using mathematical and industrial principles accepted in the art (e.g., rounding, measurement or other systematic errors, manufacturing tolerances, etc.), would not vary the least significant digit. The term "chimeric antigen receptor” or “CAR” refers to engineered receptors, which are grafted onto cells. In general, a CAR of the present disclosure comprises one or more extracellular domains comprising the antigen binding domain(s), one or more intracellular domains comprising one or more costimulatory and / or signaling domains, and a scaffold comprising multiple transmembrane domains and intracellular or extracellular loops, at which the one or more extracellular or intracellular domains are disposed. The antigen binding domain of the CAR targets specific antigens. The targeting regions may comprise full length heavy chain, Fab fragments, scFvs, divalent single chain antibodies or diabodies, each of which are specific to the target antigen (e.g., a tumor antigen of Table 1). The antigen binding domain can be derived from the same species or a different species for or in which the CAR will be used in. The term "transmembrane domain" refers to the region of the CAR, which crosses or bridges the plasma membrane. In certain embodiments of the present disclosure, the CAR scaffold comprises a GPCR, which can multiple (e.g., two, three, four, five, or more) transmembrane domains. As used herein, the term "G protein-coupled receptor" or "GPCR," or "GPR" refers to a transmembrane receptor that is capable of transmitting a signal from the outside of a cell to the inside of a cell through a G protein pathway and / or an arrestin Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 pathway. Hundreds of such receptors are known in the art; see, e.g., Fredriksson et al., Mol. Pharmacol.63: 1256-1272, 2003, and Vassilatis, D.K., Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 100: 4903-4908 (2003), each of which are hereby incorporated by reference. These references have characterized the human and mouse GPCRs based on sequence homology and function. Human GPCRs can be broken down into five classes: secretin, rhodopsin, glutamate, frizzled / Tas2, and adhesion. Alternatively, receptors may be classified by their ligands, e.g., peptide hormones or small molecules (e.g., biogenic amines). Other classification schemes include the A-F classification, where class A represents receptors related to rhodopsin and the adrenergic receptors, class B, receptors related to the calcitonin and parathyroid hormone receptors, class C, receptors related to the metabotropic receptors, and classes D-F represent receptors found in fungi and archaebacteria. In certain embodiments of the present disclosure, GPCRs can be used as a scaffold for a CAR. The term "G protein" refers to a heterotrimeric protein complex that transmits a signal from an activated GPCR to effector molecule(s) inside the cell such as enzymes and ion channels. G proteins are made up of Got, Gp, and Gy subunits. Families of Got subunits include Gq, Gi, Gs, and Gal2 / 13. G protein signaling pathways are named for the activated Got subunit, / .< ., Gas, Gai, Gaq, and Gal 2 / 13. A heterotrimeric G protein binds to an activated GPCR protein, that is, a GPCR protein that is bound to a ligand or surrogate ligand. When bound to a GPCR protein, the Ga subunit exchanges bound guanosine diphosphate (GDP) for guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP) and dissociates from the GP and Gy subunits, which are typically associated in a heterodimeric complex. Once dissociated, both the Ga-GTP -bound protein and the GPy complex can activate signaling pathways. The Gq family includes Gaq, Gal 1, Gal4, and Gal5 / 16. The Gi family includes Gail-3, Gao, Gat, Gagust, and Gaz. The Gs family includes Gas and Gaolf. The G12 / 13 includes Gal2 and Gal3. The terms “binder” or “specifically binds” or “specific for” with respect to an antigen-binding domain of a ligand like an antibody, of a fragment thereof or of a CAR refer to an antigen-binding domain which recognizes and binds to a specific antigen, but does not substantially recognize or bind other molecules in a sample. An antigen-binding domain that binds specifically to an antigen from one species may bind also to that Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 antigen from another species. This cross-species reactivity is not contrary to the definition of that antigen-binding domain as specific. An antigen-binding domain that specifically binds to an antigen may bind also to different allelic forms of the antigen (allelic variants, splice variants, isoforms etc.). This cross reactivity is not contrary to the definition of that antigen-binding domain as specific. The terms “engineered cell” and “genetically modified cell” as used herein can be used interchangeably. The terms mean containing and / or expressing a foreign gene or nucleic acid sequence which in turn modifies the genotype or phenotype of the cell or its progeny. Especially, the terms refers to cells, preferentially T cells which are manipulated by recombinant methods well known in the art to express stably or transiently peptides or proteins which are not expressed in these cells in the natural state. For example, T cells are engineered to express an artificial construct such as a chimeric antigen receptor on their cell surface. For example, the sequences encoding the CAR may be delivered into cells using a retroviral or lentiviral vector. The term “primary cell” refers to a cell isolated directly from a multicellular organism. Primary cells typically have undergone very few population doublings and are therefore more representative of the main functional component of the tissue from which they are derived in comparison to continuous (tumor or artificially immortalized) cell lines. In some cases, primary cells are cells that have been isolated and then used immediately. In other cases, primary cells cannot divide indefinitely and thus cannot be cultured for long periods of time in vitro. In certain embodiments of the present disclosure, a primary cell can comprise a primary immune cell (e.g., a primary T-cell) The term “target” as used herein refers to an antigen or epitope associated with a cell that should be recognized specifically by an antigen binding domain, e.g. an antigen binding domain of an antibody or of a CAR. The antigen or epitope for antibody recognition can be bound to the cell surface but also be secreted, part of the extracellular membrane, or shed from the cell. As used herein, the term “dual-targeting” refers to a protein (e.g., a chimeric protein) capable of binding to two different antigens. Specifically, a dual-targeting protein of the present disclosure (e.g., a CAR having two or more tumor or cancer antigen binding domains) does not naturally occur and is produced by a genetic engineering Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 method or other method. In one embodiment, a primary cell, an engineered iPSC or derivative cell of the present disclosure can comprise one or more exogenous polynucleotides encoding a CAR having a first antigen binding domain that specifically binds CD19 and a second antigen binding domain that specifically binds CD22. This is in contrast with other examples of the present disclosure wherein a primary cell, an engineered iPSC or derivative cell comprises one or more polynucleotides encoding a first CAR having a first antigen binding domain that specifically binds CD33 and a second CAR having a second antigen binding domain that specifically binds CD123. The terms “identical” or percent “identity,” in the context of two or more nucleic acids or polypeptide sequences (e.g., CAR polypeptides and the CAR polynucleotides that encode them), refer to two or more sequences or subsequences that are the same or have a specified percentage of amino acid residues or nucleotides that are the same, when compared and aligned for maximum correspondence, as measured using one of the following sequence comparison algorithms or by visual inspection. For sequence comparison, typically one sequence acts as a reference sequence, to which test sequences are compared. When using a sequence comparison algorithm, test and reference sequences are input into a computer, subsequence coordinates are designated, if necessary, and sequence algorithm program parameters are designated. The sequence comparison algorithm then calculates the percent sequence identity for the test sequence(s) relative to the reference sequence, based on the designated program parameters. Optimal alignment of sequences for comparison can be conducted, e.g., by the local homology algorithm of Smith & Waterman, Adv. Appl. Math.2:482 (1981), by the homology alignment algorithm of Needleman & Wunsch, J. Mol. Biol.48:443 (1970), by the search for similarity method of Pearson & Lipman, Proc. Nat’l. Acad. Sci. USA 85:2444 (1988), by computerized implementations of these algorithms (GAP, BESTFIT, FASTA, and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics Software Package, Genetics Computer Group, 575 Science Dr., Madison, WI), or by visual inspection (see generally, Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, F.M. Ausubel et al., eds., Current Protocols, a joint venture between Greene Publishing Associates, Inc. and John Wiley & Sons, Inc., (1995 Supplement) (Ausubel)). Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 Examples of algorithms that are suitable for determining percent sequence identity and sequence similarity are the BLAST and BLAST 2.0 algorithms, which are described in Altschul et al. (1990) J. Mol. Biol.215: 403-410 and Altschul et al. (1997) Nucleic Acids Res.25: 3389-3402, respectively. Software for performing BLAST analyses is publicly available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information. This algorithm involves first identifying high scoring sequence pairs (HSPs) by identifying short words of length W in the query sequence, which either match or satisfy some positive-valued threshold score T when aligned with a word of the same length in a database sequence. T is referred to as the neighborhood word score threshold (Altschul et al., supra). These initial neighborhood word hits act as seeds for initiating searches to find longer HSPs containing them. The word hits are then extended in both directions along each sequence for as far as the cumulative alignment score can be increased. Cumulative scores are calculated using, for nucleotide sequences, the parameters M (reward score for a pair of matching residues; always > 0) and N (penalty score for mismatching residues; always < 0). For amino acid sequences, a scoring matrix is used to calculate the cumulative score. Extension of the word hits in each direction are halted when: the cumulative alignment score falls off by the quantity X from its maximum achieved value; the cumulative score goes to zero or below, due to the accumulation of one or more negative-scoring residue alignments; or the end of either sequence is reached. The BLAST algorithm parameters W, T, and X determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment. The BLASTN program (for nucleotide sequences) uses as defaults a wordlength (W) of 11, an expectation (E) of 10, M=5, N= -4, and a comparison of both strands. For amino acid sequences, the BLASTP program uses as defaults a wordlength (W) of 3, an expectation (E) of 10, and the BLOSUM62 scoring matrix (see Henikoff & Henikoff, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 89:10915 (1989)). In addition to calculating percent sequence identity, the BLAST algorithm also performs a statistical analysis of the similarity between two sequences (see, e.g., Karlin & Altschul, Proc. Nat’l. Acad. Sci. USA 90:5873-5787 (1993)). One measure of similarity provided by the BLAST algorithm is the smallest sum probability (P(N)), which provides an indication of the probability by which a match between two Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 nucleotide or amino acid sequences would occur by chance. For example, a nucleic acid is considered similar to a reference sequence if the smallest sum probability in a comparison of the test nucleic acid to the reference nucleic acid is less than about 0.1, more preferably less than about 0.01, and most preferably less than about 0.001. A further indication that two nucleic acid sequences or polypeptides are substantially identical is that the polypeptide encoded by the first nucleic acid is immunologically cross reactive with the polypeptide encoded by the second nucleic acid, as described below. Thus, a polypeptide is typically substantially identical to a second polypeptide, for example, where the two peptides differ only by conservative substitutions. Another indication that two nucleic acid sequences are substantially identical is that the two molecules hybridize to each other under stringent conditions. As used herein, the term “isolated” means a biological component (such as a nucleic acid, peptide, protein, or cell) has been substantially separated, produced apart from, or purified away from other biological components of the organism in which the component naturally occurs, i.e., other chromosomal and extrachromosomal DNA and RNA, proteins, cells, and tissues. Nucleic acids, peptides, proteins, and cells that have been “isolated” thus include nucleic acids, peptides, proteins, and cells purified by standard purification methods and purification methods described herein. “Isolated” nucleic acids, peptides, proteins, and cells can be part of a composition and still be isolated if the composition is not part of the native environment of the nucleic acid, peptide, protein, or cell. The term also embraces nucleic acids, peptides and proteins prepared by recombinant expression in a host cell as well as chemically synthesized nucleic acids. As used herein, the term “polynucleotide,” synonymously referred to as “nucleic acid molecule,” “nucleotides” or “nucleic acids,” refers to any polyribonucleotide or polydeoxyribonucleotide, which can be unmodified RNA or DNA or modified RNA or DNA. “Polynucleotides” include, without limitation single- and double-stranded DNA, DNA that is a mixture of single- and double-stranded regions, single- and double- stranded RNA, and RNA that is mixture of single- and double-stranded regions, hybrid molecules comprising DNA and RNA that can be single-stranded or, more typically, double-stranded or a mixture of single- and double-stranded regions. In addition, Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 “polynucleotide” refers to triple-stranded regions comprising RNA or DNA or both RNA and DNA. The term polynucleotide also includes DNAs or RNAs containing one or more modified bases and DNAs or RNAs with backbones modified for stability or for other reasons. “Modified” bases include, for example, tritylated bases and unusual bases such as inosine. A variety of modifications can be made to DNA and RNA; thus, “polynucleotide” embraces chemically, enzymatically or metabolically modified forms of polynucleotides as typically found in nature, as well as the chemical forms of DNA and RNA characteristic of viruses and cells. “Polynucleotide” also embraces relatively short nucleic acid chains, often referred to as oligonucleotides. A “construct” refers to a macromolecule or complex of molecules comprising a polynucleotide to be delivered to a host cell, either in vitro or in vivo. A “vector,” as used herein refers to any nucleic acid construct capable of directing the delivery or transfer of a foreign genetic material to target cells, where it can be replicated and / or expressed. The term “vector” as used herein comprises the construct to be delivered. A vector can be a linear or a circular molecule. A vector can be integrating or non-integrating. The major types of vectors include, but are not limited to, plasmids, episomal vector, viral vectors, cosmids, and artificial chromosomes. Viral vectors include, but are not limited to, adenovirus vector, adeno-associated virus vector, retrovirus vector, lentivirus vector, Sendai virus vector, and the like. By “integration” it is meant that one or more nucleotides of a construct is stably inserted into the cellular genome, i.e., covalently linked to the nucleic acid sequence within the cell's chromosomal DNA. By “targeted integration” it is meant that the nucleotide(s) of a construct is inserted into the cell's chromosomal or mitochondrial DNA at a pre-selected site or “integration site”. The term “integration” as used herein further refers to a process involving insertion of one or more exogenous sequences or nucleotides of the construct, with or without deletion of an endogenous sequence or nucleotide at the integration site. In the case, where there is a deletion at the insertion site, “integration” can further comprise replacement of the endogenous sequence or a nucleotide that is deleted with the one or more inserted nucleotides. As used herein, the term “exogenous” is intended to mean that the referenced molecule or the referenced activity is introduced into, or non-native to, the host cell. The Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 molecule can be introduced, for example, by introduction of an encoding nucleic acid into the host genetic material such as by integration into a host chromosome or as non- chromosomal genetic material such as a plasmid. Therefore, the term as it is used in reference to expression of an encoding nucleic acid refers to introduction of the encoding nucleic acid in an expressible form into the cell. The term “endogenous” refers to a referenced molecule or activity that is present in the host cell in its native form. Similarly, the term when used in reference to expression of an encoding nucleic acid refers to expression of an encoding nucleic acid natively contained within the cell and not exogenously introduced. As used herein, a “gene of interest” or “a polynucleotide sequence of interest” is a DNA sequence that is transcribed into RNA and in some instances translated into a polypeptide in vivo when placed under the control of appropriate regulatory sequences. A gene or polynucleotide of interest can include, but is not limited to, prokaryotic sequences, cDNA from eukaryotic mRNA, genomic DNA sequences from eukaryotic (e.g., mammalian) DNA, and synthetic DNA sequences. For example, a gene of interest may encode an miRNA, an shRNA, a native polypeptide (i.e. a polypeptide found in nature) or fragment thereof; a variant polypeptide (i.e. a mutant of the native polypeptide having less than 100% sequence identity with the native polypeptide) or fragment thereof; an engineered polypeptide or peptide fragment, a therapeutic peptide or polypeptide, an imaging marker, a selectable marker, and the like. “Operably-linked” refers to the association of nucleic acid sequences on a single nucleic acid fragment so that the function of one is affected by the other. For example, a promoter is operably-linked with a coding sequence or functional RNA when it is capable of affecting the expression of that coding sequence or functional RNA (i.e., the coding sequence or functional RNA is under the transcriptional control of the promoter). Coding sequences can be operably-linked to regulatory sequences in sense or antisense orientation. The term “expression” as used herein, refers to the biosynthesis of a gene product. The term encompasses the transcription of a gene into RNA. The term also encompasses translation of RNA into one or more polypeptides, and further encompasses all naturally occurring post-transcriptional and post-translational modifications. The expressed CAR Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 can be within the cytoplasm of a host cell, into the extracellular milieu such as the growth medium of a cell culture or anchored to the cell membrane. As used herein, the terms “peptide,” “polypeptide,” or “protein” can refer to a molecule comprised of amino acids and can be recognized as a protein by those of skill in the art. The conventional one-letter or three-letter code for amino acid residues is used herein. The terms “peptide,” “polypeptide,” and “protein” can be used interchangeably herein to refer to polymers of amino acids of any length. The polymer can be linear or branched, it can comprise modified amino acids, and it can be interrupted by non-amino acids. The terms also encompass an amino acid polymer that has been modified naturally or by intervention; for example, disulfide bond formation, glycosylation, lipidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, or any other manipulation or modification, such as conjugation with a labeling component. Also included within the definition are, for example, polypeptides containing one or more analogs of an amino acid (including, for example, unnatural amino acids, etc.), as well as other modifications known in the art. The peptide sequences described herein are written according to the usual convention whereby the N-terminal region of the peptide is on the left and the C-terminal region is on the right. Although isomeric forms of the amino acids are known, it is the L- form of the amino acid that is represented unless otherwise expressly indicated. As used herein, the term “engineered immune cell” refers to an immune cell, also referred to as an immune effector cell, that has been genetically modified by the addition of exogenous genetic material in the form of DNA or RNA to the total genetic material of the cell. Overview The present disclosure provides engineered cells (and compositions comprising such cells) having CARs that utilize a GPCR scaffold to enable additional functional extracellular and intracellular domains to be engineered into a single receptor. Generally, GPCRs contain 7 transmembrane domains, 3 intracellular and extracellular loops, an extracellular N-terminal region, and intracellular C-terminal tail. By engineering (i) intracellular domains on different intracellular loops (or the C terminus), and / or (ii) antigen binders on the N terminus or extracellular loops, multiple functional extracellular Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 and intracellular domains can be engineered into a single CAR. Additionally, the binders and endodomains incorporated into intracellular or extracellular loops are maintained proximal to the cell membrane, which may help synapse formation and receptor functionality for each domain. GPCRs are amenable to engineering, as the loops and termini of GPCRs are flexible and do not contribute to the overall structural framework of the GPCR. Finally, chemokine receptors such as CXCR3 and CXCR4 are expressed on T and NK cells and natively contribute to the effector response. CARs that utilize these receptors as a scaffold may signal through endogenous pathways and further increase functionality. A single receptor with one or more tumor antigen specificities can be designed that also recapitulate multiple modes of immune effector signaling, providing more robust T or NK responses, persistence, and cytokine release. In certain aspects, the present disclosure provides an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) or a derivative cell thereof comprising at least one exogenous polynucleotide encoding one or more chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), comprising a G protein- coupled receptor (GPCR) scaffold or fragment thereof and at least one antigen binding domain targeting a tumor antigen. In some embodiments, the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) or a derivative cell thereof can further comprise at least one of (i) a deletion or reduced expression of one or more of B2M, TAP 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5, RFXAP genes, (ii) an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a human leukocyte antigen E (HLA-E) and / or human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G), (iii) an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a natural killer (NK) cell receptor immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor III (FcyRIII, cluster of differentiation 16 (CD16)) and / or an NKG2D protein, (iv) a deletion or reduced expression of one or both of NKG2A and CD70 genes, (v) an exogeneous polynucleotide encoding a cytokine, (vi) an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a safety switch, and optionally an exogeneous polynucleotide encoding a PSMA cell tracer. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold or fragment thereof is selected from the group consisting of rhodopsin-like receptors (Class A), secretin family receptors (Class B), or Metabotropic receptors (Class C). In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a rhodopsin-like receptor (such as chemokine receptor). In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is selected from the group consisting of CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR6, CCR7, CCR8, CCR9, CCR10, CXCR1, Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR5, CXCR6, CX3CR1, XCR1, ACKR1, ACKR2, ACKR3, ACKR4, and a fragment of any receptor thereof. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the GPCR scaffold is CXCR3 or a fragment thereof. I. Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (IPSCs) And Immune Effector Cells IPSCs have unlimited self-renewing capacity. Use of iPSCs enables cellular engineering to produce a controlled cell bank of modified cells that can be expanded and differentiated into desired immune effector cells, supplying large amounts of homogeneous allogeneic therapeutic products. Provided herein are genetically engineered IPSCs and derivative cells thereof. The selected genomic modifications provided herein enhance the therapeutic properties of the derivative cells. The derivative cells are functionally improved and suitable for allogenic off-the-shelf cell therapies following a combination of selective modalities being introduced to the cells at the level of iPSC through genomic engineering. This approach can help to reduce the side effects mediated by CRS / GVHD and prevent long- term autoimmunity while providing excellent efficacy. As used herein, the term "differentiation" is the process by which an unspecialized ("uncommitted") or less specialized cell acquires the features of a specialized cell. Specialized cells include, for example, a blood cell or a muscle cell. A differentiated or differentiation- induced cell is one that has taken on a more specialized ("committed") position within the lineage of a cell. The term "committed", when applied to the process of differentiation, refers to a cell that has proceeded in the differentiation pathway to a point where, under normal circumstances, it will continue to differentiate into a specific cell type or subset of cell types, and cannot, under normal circumstances, differentiate into a different cell type or revert to a less differentiated cell type. As used herein, the term "pluripotent" refers to the ability of a cell to form all lineages of the body or soma or the embryo proper. For example, embryonic stem cells are a type of pluripotent stem cells that are able to form cells from each of the three germs layers, the ectoderm, the mesoderm, and the endoderm. Pluripotency is a continuum of developmental potencies ranging from the incompletely or partially pluripotent cell (e.g., an epiblast stem cell or EpiSC), which is unable to give rise to a complete organism to the Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 more primitive, more pluripotent cell, which is able to give rise to a complete organism (e.g., an embryonic stem cell). As used herein, the terms "reprogramming" or "dedifferentiation" refers to a method of increasing the potency of a cell or dedifferentiating the cell to a less differentiated state. For example, a cell that has an increased cell potency has more developmental plasticity (i.e., can differentiate into more cell types) compared to the same cell in the non-reprogrammed state. In other words, a reprogrammed cell is one that is in a less differentiated state than the same cell in a non-reprogrammed state. As used herein, the term "induced pluripotent stem cells" or, iPSCs, means that the stem cells are produced from differentiated adult, neonatal or fetal cells that have been induced or changed or reprogrammed into cells capable of differentiating into tissues of all three germ or dermal layers: mesoderm, endoderm, and ectoderm. The iPSCs produced do not refer to cells as they are found in nature. The term “hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells,” “hematopoietic stem cells,” “hematopoietic progenitor cells,” or “hematopoietic precursor cells” or “HPCs” refers to cells which are committed to a hematopoietic lineage but are capable of further hematopoietic differentiation. Hematopoietic stem cells include, for example, multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (hematoblasts), myeloid progenitors, megakaryocyte progenitors, erythrocyte progenitors, and lymphoid progenitors. Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSCs) are multipotent stem cells that give rise to all the blood cell types including myeloid (monocytes and macrophages, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, erythrocytes, megakaryocytes / platelets, dendritic cells), and lymphoid lineages (T cells, B cells, NK cells). As used herein, “CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cell” refers to an HPC that expresses CD34 on its surface. As used herein, the term “immune cell” or “immune effector cell” refers to a cell that is involved in an immune response. Immune response includes, for example, the promotion of an immune effector response. Examples of immune cells include T cells, B cells, natural killer (NK) cells, mast cells, and myeloid-derived phagocytes. As used herein, the terms “T lymphocyte” and “T cell” are used interchangeably and refer to a type of white blood cell that completes maturation in the thymus and that has various roles in the immune system. A T cell can have the roles including, e.g., the Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 identification of specific foreign antigens in the body and the activation and deactivation of other immune cells. A T cell can be any T cell, such as a cultured T cell, e.g., a primary T cell, or a T cell from a cultured T cell line, e.g., Jurkat, SupTl, etc., or a T cell obtained from a mammal. The T cell can be CD3+ cells. The T cell can be any type of T cell and can be of any developmental stage, including but not limited to, CD4+ / CD8+ double positive T cells, CD4+ helper T cells (e.g., Thl and Th2 cells), CD8+ T cells (e.g., cytotoxic T cells), peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs), tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs), memory T cells, naive T cells, regulator T cells, gamma delta T cells (gd T cells), and the like. Additional types of helper T cells include cells such as Th3 (Treg), Thl7, Th9, or Tfh cells. Additional types of memory T cells include cells such as central memory T cells (Tcm cells), effector memory T cells (Tern cells and TEMRA cells). The T cell can also refer to a genetically engineered T cell, such as a T cell modified to express a T cell receptor (TCR) or a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). The T cell can also be differentiated from a stem cell or progenitor cell. “CD4+ T cells” refers to a subset of T cells that express CD4 on their surface and are associated with cell-mediated immune response. They are characterized by the secretion profiles following stimulation, which may include secretion of cytokines such as IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, IL2, IL4 and IL10. “CD4” are 55-kD glycoproteins originally defined as differentiation antigens on T-lymphocytes, but also found on other cells including monocytes / macrophages. CD4 antigens are members of the immunoglobulin supergene family and are implicated as associative recognition elements in MHC (major histocompatibility complex) class II-restricted immune responses. On T- lymphocytes they define the helper / inducer subset. “CD8+ T cells” refers to a subset of T cells which express CD8 on their surface, are MHC class I-restricted, and function as cytotoxic T cells. “CD8” molecules are differentiation antigens found on thymocytes and on cytotoxic and suppressor T- lymphocytes. CD8 antigens are members of the immunoglobulin supergene family and are associative recognition elements in major histocompatibility complex class I- restricted interactions. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 As used herein, the term “NK cell” or “Natural Killer cell” refers to a subset of peripheral blood lymphocytes defined by the expression of CD56 and CD45 and the absence of the T cell receptor (TCR chains). The NK cell can also refer to a genetically engineered NK cell, such as a NK cell modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). The NK cell can also be differentiated from a stem cell or progenitor cell. The induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) parental cell lines may be generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) or T-cells using any known method for introducing re-programming factors into non-pluripotent cells such as the episomal plasmid-based process as previously described in U.S. Pat. Nos.8,546,140; 9,644,184; 9,328,332; and 8,765,470, the complete disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. The reprogramming factors may be in a form of polynucleotides, and thus are introduced to the non-pluripotent cells by vectors such as a retrovirus, a Sendai virus, an adenovirus, an episome, and a mini-circle. In particular embodiments, the one or more polynucleotides encoding at least one reprogramming factor are introduced by a lentiviral vector. In some embodiments, the one or more polynucleotides introduced by an episomal vector. In various other embodiments, the one or more polynucleotides are introduced by a Sendai viral vector. In some embodiments, the iPSC’s are clonal iPSC’s or are obtained from a pool of iPSCs and the genome edits are introduced by making one or more targeted integration and / or in / del at one or more selected sites. In another embodiment, the iPSC’s are obtained from human T cells having antigen specificity and a reconstituted TCR gene (hereinafter, also refer to as "T-iPS” cells) as described in US Pat. Nos.9206394, and 10787642 hereby incorporated by reference into the present application. According to a particular aspect, the application relates to an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) cell or a derivative cell thereof comprising: (i) an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising a G protein- coupled receptor (GPCR) scaffold or fragment thereof and at least one antigen binding domain targeting a tumor antigen; (ii) an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a truncated epithelial growth factor receptor (tEGFR) variant and an interleukin 15 (IL-15), wherein the tEGFR variant and IL-15 are operably linked by an autoprotease peptide sequence, Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 such as the porcine tesehovirus-12A (P2A); and (iii) a deletion or reduced expression of B2M and CIITA genes. II. Expression of Chimeric Antigen Receptors Utilizing G Protein-coupled Receptor Scaffolds In some embodiments, an iPSC cell or derivative cell thereof contains an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), such as a CAR targeting a tumor antigen, and said CAR comprises a GPCR scaffold. In some instances, the recombinant CAR polypeptide includes a GPCR scaffold comprising a plurality of transmembrane domains connected by intracellular and / or extracellular loops. In some embodiments, the recombinant CAR polypeptide further comprises at least one extracellular domain (disposed at an extracellular loop or an N-terminal tail of the GPCR scaffold) that binds specifically to an antigen (or more than one antigen). In some embodiments, the recombinant CAR polypeptide further comprises an intracellular signaling domain (disposed at an intracellular loop or C-terminal tail of the GPCR scaffold). In some instances, the recombinant CAR polypeptide includes a signal peptide, one or more intracellular signaling domains, and / or one or more co-stimulatory domains. A. G Protein-Coupled Receptor (GPCR) Scaffolds In certain embodiments, a CAR of the present disclosure comprises a GPCR scaffold. GPCRs are a large family of membrane receptors that detect molecules outside the cell and activate internal signal transduction pathways and cellular responses. Structurally, GPCRs typically contain multiple transmembrane domains, intracellular and extracellular loops, an extracellular N-terminal region, and an intracellular C-terminal tail. By engineering (i) intracellular domains on different intracellular loops (or the C terminus), and / or (ii) antigen binders on the N terminus or extracellular loops, multiple functional extracellular and intracellular domains can be engineered into a single CAR. The modularity, tuning capacity and signaling diversity of GPCRs make them promising scaffolds for engineering CARs with tailored signaling properties and potentially improved therapeutic responses as compared to standard CAR designs. GPCRs have a conserved structure with an extracellular ligand binding domain that can be engineered to bind specific antigens. Additionally, GPCRs couple to different G Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 proteins which activate various effector proteins and cellular responses (e.g., proliferation, cytokine production), can have lower T cell activation thresholds, resulting in specific discrimination between target and healthy cells. In certain embodiments, a CAR of the present disclosure comprises a GPCR scaffold. Generally, scaffold proteins provide a platform to bring together multiple proteins involved in a particular signaling pathway. By interacting with various components, scaffold proteins facilitate signaling between membrane receptors and intracellular effectors. They coordinate multi-protein signaling complexes and ensure the specificity and efficiency of signal transduction. In other words, scaffolds can provide spatial and temporal control over signaling. In the case of CARs expressed on the surface of effector cells (e.g., T or NK cells), scaffold proteins (such as a GPCR) can be used, for example, to facilitate (i) the proximate surface expression of multiple tumor antigen binding domains (e.g., to enhance anti-tumor specificity) and / or (ii) intracellular signaling in response to successful tumor antigen binding by the effector cell. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) (also known as seven-(pass)- transmembrane domain receptors, 7TM receptors, heptahelical receptors, serpentine receptors, and G protein-linked receptors (GPLR)) form a large group of evolutionarily related cell surface receptors that detect molecules outside the cell and activate cellular responses. They pass through the cell membrane seven times in form of six loops (i.e., three extracellular loops interacting with ligand molecules, three intracellular loops interacting with G proteins, an N-terminal extracellular region and a C-terminal intracellular region) of amino acid residues. According to the classical A-F system, GPCRs can be grouped into 6 classes based on sequence homology and functional similarity. More recently, an alternative classification system called GRAFS (Glutamate, Rhodopsin, Adhesion, Frizzled / Taste2, Secretin) has been proposed for vertebrate GPCRs. A person of skill in the art will appreciate that any GPCR may be used with embodiments of the present disclosure. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the GPCR scaffold or fragment thereof is selected from the group consisting of rhodopsin-like receptors (Class A), secretin family receptors (Class B), and Metabotropic receptors (Class C). In certain embodiments, a GPCR comprising a native ligand binding domain may be modified to remove said ligand Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 binding domain and replace it with an alternative ligand binding domain (e.g., a tumor antigen binding domain). Class A GPCRs, also known as rhodopsin-like receptors, make up the largest class of G protein-coupled receptors. They are characterized by a common structure consisting of a single polypeptide chain that weaves back and forth across the plasma membrane 7 times, forming 7 alpha helical transmembrane domains. The N-terminus of the receptor sits outside the cell, while the C-terminus resides inside the cell. The transmembrane helices are connected by 3 extracellular loops and 3 intracellular loops. Class A GPCRs bind to ligands such as hormones, neurotransmitters, cytokines and chemokines. The binding of these small diffusible ligands induces a conformational change in the transmembrane domains, activating the receptor. This causes the receptor to couple to a heterotrimeric G protein inside the cell, made up of alpha, beta and gamma subunits. Activation of the G protein leads to downstream signaling cascades that generate cellular responses. There are over 700 different Class A GPCRs known, making this by far the largest and most diverse group. Some examples of Class A GPCRs include rhodopsin, adrenergic, dopamine, serotonin and chemokine receptors. Class A receptors exhibit some conserved sequence motifs like the DRY motif, and their activity is regulated by phosphorylation, palmitoylation and other post-translational modifications. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a Class A GPCR. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a Class A GPCR selected from the group consisting of ACKR1, ACKR2, ACKR3, ACKR4, Blue opsin, CCR1, CCR10, CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR6, CCR7, CCR8, CCR9, CNR1, CNR2, CX3CR1, CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR5, CXCR6, Encephalopsin / panopsin, GNRHR, GNRHR2, GPR1, GPR101, GPR119, GPR12, GPR132, GPR135, GPR139, GPR141, GPR142, GPR146, GPR148, GPR149, GPR15, GPR150, GPR151, GPR152, GPR153, GPR160, GPR161, GPR162, GPR17, GPR171, GPR173, GPR174, GPR176, GPR18, GPR182, GPR183, GPR20, GPR22, GPR25, GPR26, GPR27, GPR3, GPR31, GPR32, GPR33, GPR34, GPR35, GPR37, GPR39, GPR4, GPR45, GPR50, GPR52, GPR55, GPR6, GPR61, GPR62, GPR63, GPR65, GPR68, GPR75, GPR78, GPR79, GPR82, GPR83, GPR84, GPR85, GPR87, GPR88, GPRC5A, GPRC5B, GPRC5C, GPRC5D, Green opsin, LPAR1, LPAR2, LPAR3, LPAR4, LPAR5, LPAR6, MAS1, MC1R, MC2R, Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 MC3R, MC4R, MC5R, Melanopsin, MRGE, Neuropsin (opn5), P2Y1, P2Y11, P2Y12, P2Y13, P2Y14, P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y6, Peropsin, PTAFR, Red opsin, Retinal G protein coupled receptor, Rhodopsin, Rhodopsin 3, Rhodopsin 4, Rhodopsin 5, Rhodopsin 6, Rhodopsin 7, S1PR1, S1PR2, S1PR3, S1PR4, S1PR5, Teleost multiple tissue (tmt) opsin, Vertebrate ancient (VA) opsin, Vertebrate ancient 2 (VA2) opsin, Vertebrate ancient long (VAL) opsin, and XCR1. In certain embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a chemokine receptor. In certain embodiments the chemokine receptor is selected from the group consisting of CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR4, CCR5, CCR6, CCR7, CCR8, CCR9, CCR10, CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR5, CXCR6, CX3CR1, XCR1, ACKR1, ACKR2, ACKR3, ACKR4, and a fragment of any receptor thereof. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is CXCR3 or a fragment thereof. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is CXCR3 or a fragment thereof, and (i) the CXCR3 comprises amino acids having at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 134, or (ii) the CXCR3 is encoded by a polynucleotide having at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% sequence identity to one or more of SEQ ID NOs: 135-151. Class B GPCRs, also known as secretin receptor family, represent a smaller group of around 15 receptors that bind peptide hormones. The peptides that activate Class B receptors are larger than Class A ligands. Examples include secretin, glucagon, calcitonin and other hormone peptides. Despite the differences in their extracellular regions, Class B receptors have a similar 7-transmembrane alpha helical structure spanning the membrane as Class A. One of the hallmarks of Class B receptors is their mechanism of ligand binding and activation. Their hormones bind to the extracellular N-terminal region, triggering a conformational change that propagates through the transmembrane domains. This induces movement of the ends of the transmembrane helices and subsequent G protein activation on the intracellular side. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a Class B GPCR. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a Class B GPCR selected from the group consisting of ADGRB1, ADGRB2, ADGRB3, ADGRD1, ADGRD2, ADGRE1, ADGRE2, ADGRE3, ADGRE4P, ADGRE5, ADGRF1, ADGRF2, ADGRF3, ADGRF4, ADGRF5, ADGRG1, ADGRG2, ADGRG3, ADGRG4, ADGRG5, ADGRG6, ADGRG7, a Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 Calcitonin receptor, a CRH receptor, CRHR1, CRHR2, an FSH receptor, a GHRH receptor, a GIP receptor, a GLP-1 receptor, a GLP-2 receptor, a Glucagon receptor, a Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor, a Glucagon-like peptide-2 receptor, an LH receptor, a PAC1 receptor, a PACAP receptor, a PTH1 receptor, a PTH2 receptor, a Secretin receptor, a TSH receptor, a VPAC1 receptor, and a VPAC2 receptor. Class C GPCRs, also known as metabotropic glutamate, pheromone and calcium- sensing receptors, are characterized by a large bilobed extracellular domain that serves as the ligand binding site. There are around 22 Class C receptors that can be activated by glutamate, pheromones, calcium ions and other ligands. Similar to Class B receptors, the extracellular domain of Class C receptors is responsible for ligand recognition and inducing receptor activation through conformational changes that get propagated to the transmembrane domains. However, the extracellular domain has a bipartite structure formed by two lobes connected by a hinge region, unlike the singular extracellular domain of Class B. Binding of ligands like glutamate and calcium to the cleft between the two lobes causes the lobes to come together. This closure exerts an effect on the heptahelical transmembrane domain to activate downstream signaling. Despite some differences, Class C receptors have 7 alpha helical transmembrane domains and couple to G proteins like Class A and B. Examples of Class C receptors include metabotropic glutamate receptors involved in neurotransmission, calcium-sensing receptors. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a Class C GPCR. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold is a Class C GPCR selected from the group consisting of CaSR, mGluR1, mGluR2, mGluR3, mGluR4, mGluR5, mGluR6, mGluR7, mGluR8, TAS1R1, TAS1R2, and TAS1R3. In some aspects, an iPSC or the derivative cell of the present disclosure can comprise a CAR having a GPCR scaffold. In some embodiments, the GPCR scaffold can comprise (i) at least one an extracellular domain comprising the first antigen-binding domain, (ii) at least one transmembrane domain; and / or (iii) at least one intracellular domain. B. Extracellular domains Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 In certain embodiments, an extracellular domain of a GPCR CAR includes an antibody, an antibody fragment, an antigen-binding domain and / or an antigen-binding fragment. The antigen binding fragment can, for example, be an antibody or antigen- binding fragment thereof that specifically binds a tumor antigen. In some embodiments, the antigen-binding domains or fragments possess one or more desirable functional properties including, but not limited to, high-affinity binding to a tumor antigen, high specificity to a tumor antigen, the ability to stimulate complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC), antibody-dependent phagocytosis (ADPC), and / or antibody-dependent cellular- mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) against cells expressing a tumor antigen, and the ability to inhibit tumor growth in subjects in need thereof and in animal models when administered alone or in combination with other anti-cancer therapies. In some embodiments, antibodies or antibody fragments suitable for use in the CAR include, but are not limited to, monoclonal antibodies, bispecific antibodies, multispecific antibodies, chimeric antibodies, polypeptide-Fc fusions, single-chain Fvs (scFv), single chain antibodies, Fab fragments, F(ab′) fragments, disulfide-linked Fvs (sdFv), masked antibodies (e.g., Probodies®), Small Modular ImmunoPharmaceuticals ("SMIPsTM"), intrabodies, minibodies, single domain antibody variable domains, nanobodies, VHHs, diabodies, tandem diabodies (TandAb®), anti-idiotypic (anti-Id) antibodies (including, e.g., anti-Id antibodies to antigen-specific TCR), and epitope- binding fragments of any of the above.

In some embodiments, the extracellular domain is an scFv. i. Antigen-binding domains Generally, a GPCR CAR of the present disclosure can comprise an extracellular domain comprising an antigen-binding domain. Such extracellular domains, for example, can consist of an extracellular loop (ECL) of the GPCR in which the antigen-binding domain is disposed. By expressing the antigen binding domain in an ECL of the GPCR scaffold, the antigen-binding domain can be expressed on the surface of the cell, and in proximity of other antigen binding domains or costimulatory / signalling domains expressed in another ECL domain of the same GPCR. In some embodiments, an antigen-binding domain of a CAR binds to a target antigen. The antigen-binding domain may bind to more than one antigen or more than one epitope in an antigen. For example, the antigen-binding domain may bind to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or more antigens. As another example, the antigen-binding domain may bind 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or more epitopes in the same antigen. The choice of antigen-binding domain may depend upon the type and number of antigens that define the surface of a target cell. For example, the antigen-binding domain may be chosen to recognize an antigen that acts as a cell surface marker on target cells associated with a particular disease state. In some embodiments, CAR can be genetically modified to target a tumor antigen of interest by way of engineering a desired antigen- binding domain that specifically binds to an antigen (e.g., on a tumor cell). Non-limiting examples of cell surface markers that may act as targets for the antigen-binding domain in the CAR include those associated with tumor cells or autoimmune diseases. In some embodiments, the antigen-binding domain binds to at least one tumor antigen or autoimmune antigen. In some embodiments, the antigen-binding domain binds to at least one tumor antigen or autoimmune antigen selected from one or more of Tables 1-3.

Table 11. CAR regions Sequence SEQ ID NO D. Hinge regions Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 In some embodiments, a GPCR CAR polypeptide includes a hinge region (e.g., a spacer region) between an extracellular domain and a transmembrane domain, such that the extracellular domain, hinge region, and transmembrane domain are in frame with each other. In some embodiments, the hinge can comprise the flexible N-terminus of a GPCR scaffold (e.g., CXCR3). In other embodiments, the flexible N-terminus of the GPCR scaffold can be substituted with a hinge region from another protein (e.g., CD8). A hinge region may contain up to 300 amino acids, preferably 10 to 100 amino acids and most preferably 25 to 50 amino acids. A hinge region may be derived from all or part of naturally occurring molecules, such as from all or part of the extracellular region of CD8, CD4 or CD28, or from all or part of an antibody constant region. Alternatively, the hinge region may be a synthetic sequence that corresponds to a naturally occurring spacer region sequence, or may be an entirely synthetic spacer region sequence. Non-limiting examples of hinge regions include a part of human CD8α chain, partial extracellular domain of CD28, FcγRlIIIa receptor, IgG, IgM, IgA, IgD, IgE, an Ig hinge, or functional fragment thereof. In some embodiments, additional linking amino acids are added to the hinge region to ensure that the antigen-binding domain is an optimal distance from the transmembrane domain. In some embodiments, when the hinge region is derived from an immunoglobulin, the region may be mutated to prevent Fc receptor binding. In some embodiments, the hinge region includes a hinge domain of a recognized protein. The hinge domain may be derived from CD8α, CD28, or an immunoglobulin (IgG). For example, the IgG hinge may be from IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgM1, IgM2, IgA1, IgA2, IgD, IgE, or a chimera thereof. In some embodiments, the hinge domain comprises an immunoglobulin IgG hinge or functional fragment thereof. In certain embodiments, the IgG hinge is from IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgM1, IgM2, IgA1, IgA2, IgD, IgE, or a chimera thereof. In various embodiments, the hinge domain comprises the CH1, CH2, CH3 and / or hinge region of the immunoglobulin. In many embodiments, the hinge domain comprises the core hinge region of the immunoglobulin. The term “core hinge” can be used interchangeably with the term “short hinge” (“SH”).

Cytoplasmic domains including co-stimulatory domains In some aspects, a CAR polypeptide includes a cytoplasmic or intracellular domain (e.g., an intracellular loop of the GPCR), which contains at least one intracellular signaling domain. In some embodiments, a cytoplasmic domain also comprises one or more co-stimulatory signaling domains. The cytoplasmic domain is responsible for activation of at least one of the normal effector functions (e.g., specialized function) of the host cell (e.g., T cell) in Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 which the CAR has been placed in. The term “effector function” refers to a specialized function of a cell. Effector function of a T-cell, for example, may be cytolytic activity or helper activity including the secretion of cytokines. A signaling domain can include a portion of a protein which transduces the effector function signal and directs the cell to perform a specialized function. While usually the entire signaling domain is present, in many cases it is not necessary to use the entire domain. To the extent that a truncated portion of the intracellular signaling domain is used, such truncated portion may be used in place of the intact chain as long as it transduces the effector function signal. An intracellular signaling domain includes any truncated portion of the signaling domain sufficient to transduce the effector function signal. Non-limiting examples of signaling domains which can be used include, e.g., signaling domains derived from DAP10, DAP12, Fc epsilon receptor I γ chain (FCER1G), FcRβ, CD3δ, CD3ε, CD3γ, CD3ζ, CD5, CD22, CD226, CD66d, CD79A, and CD79B. In some embodiments, the cytoplasmic domain comprises a CD3ζ signaling domain. In some embodiments, the CD3ζ signaling domain includes the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:6, or a variant thereof having at least 50%, at least 55%, at least 60%, at least 65%, at least 70%, at least 75%, at least 80%, at least 85%, at least 90%, at least 95%, at least 96%, at least 97%, at least 98% or at least 99%, sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:6 of PCT / US2021 / 072646, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. In some embodiments, the cytoplasmic domain contains one or more co- stimulatory signaling domains. In some embodiments, the one or more co-stimulatory signaling domains are derived from CD28, 41BB, IL2Rb, CD40, OX40 (CD134), CD80, CD86, CD27, ICOS, NKG2D, DAP10, DAP12, 2B4 (CD244), BTLA, CD30, GITR, CD226, CD79A, and HVEM in its entirety.

[0058] Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 SEQ ID NOs: 234-247 of the present disclosure provides GPCR scaffolds sequences (both amino acid and nucleotide sequences) to which a sequence encoding one or more antigen binding domains may be added. For example, SEQ ID NO: 249 provides a GPCR CAR wherein the anti-EGFR antigen binding domain according to SEQ ID NO: 158 is added to the GPCR scaffold of SEQ ID NO: 234 of the present disclosure. In another example, SEQ ID NO: 250 provides a GPCR CAR wherein the anti-EGFR antigen binding domain according to SEQ ID NO: 158 is added to the GPCR scaffold of SEQ ID NO: 235 of the present disclosure. Generally, the antigen binding domain may be disposed on an N-terminal end of a GPCR scaffold or along an extracellular loop of the GPCR scaffold.

III. Artificial Cell Death Polypeptide According to embodiments of the application, an iPSC or a derivative cell thereof may comprise a second exogenous polynucleotide encoding an artificial cell death polypeptide. As used herein, the term "artificial cell death polypeptide” refers to an engineered protein designed to prevent potential toxicity or otherwise adverse effects of a cell therapy. The artificial cell death polypeptide could mediate induction of apoptosis, inhibition of protein synthesis, DNA replication, growth arrest, transcriptional and post- transcriptional genetic regulation and / or antibody-mediated depletion. In some instance, the artificial cell death polypeptide is activated by an exogenous molecule, e.g. an antibody, that when activated, triggers apoptosis and / or cell death of a therapeutic cell. In certain embodiments, an artificial cell death polypeptide comprises an inactivated cell surface receptor that comprises an epitope specifically recognized by an antibody, particularly a monoclonal antibody, which is also referred to herein as a monoclonal antibody-specific epitope. When expressed by iPSCs or derivative cells thereof, the inactivated cell surface receptor is signaling inactive or significantly impaired, but can still be specifically recognized by an antibody. The specific binding of the antibody to the inactivated cell surface receptor enables the elimination of the iPSCs or derivative cells thereof by ADCC and / or ADCP mechanisms, as well as, direct killing with antibody drug conjugates with toxins or radionuclides. In certain embodiments, the inactivated cell surface receptor comprises an epitope that is selected from epitopes specifically recognized by an antibody, including but not limited to, ibritumomab, tiuxetan, muromonab-CD3, tositumomab, abciximab, basiliximab, brentuximab vedotin, cetuximab, infliximab, rituximab, alemtuzumab, Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 bevacizumab, certolizumab pegol, daclizumab, eculizumab, efalizumab, gemtuzumab, natalizumab, omalizumab, palivizumab, polatuzumab vedotin, ranibizumab, tocilizumab, trastuzumab, vedolizumab, adalimumab, belimumab, canakinumab, denosumab, golimumab, ipilimumab, avelumab, ofatumumab, panitumumab, or ustekinumab.

In certain embodiments, the inactivated cell surface receptor comprises an epitope that is specifically recognized by ipilimumab. Epidermal growth factor receptor, also known as EGFR, ErbB1 and HER1, is a cell-surface receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family of extracellular ligands. As used herein, “truncated EGFR,” “tEGFR,” “short EGFR” or “sEGFR” refers to an inactive EGFR variant that lacks the EGF-binding domains and the intracellular signaling domains of the EGFR. An exemplary tEGFR variant contains residues 322-333 of domain 2, all of domains 3 and 4 and the transmembrane domain of the native EGFR sequence containing the cetuximab binding epitope. Expression of the tEGFR variant on the cell surface enables cell elimination by an antibody that specifically binds to the tEGFR, such as cetuximab (Erbitux®), as needed. Due to the absence of the EGF-binding domains and intracellular signaling domains, tEGFR is inactive when expressed by iPSCs or derivative cell thereof. An exemplary inactivated cell surface receptor of the application comprises a tEGFR variant. In certain embodiments, expression of the inactivated cell surface receptor in an engineered immune cell expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) induces cell suicide of the engineered immune cell when the cell is contacted with an anti-EGFR antibody.

[0062] Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 In a particular embodiment, the inactivated cell surface receptor comprises an amino acid sequence at least 90%, such as at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%, identical to SEQ ID NO: 79, preferably the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 79. In a particular embodiment, the inactivated cell surface receptor comprises an amino acid sequence at least 90%, such as at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%, identical to SEQ ID NO: 81, preferably the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 81.

V. HLA Expression In one aspect, MHC I and / or MHC II knock-out and / or knock down can be incorporated in the cells for use in “allogeneic” cell therapies, in which cells are harvested from a subject, modified to knock-out or knock-down, e.g., disrupt, B2M, TAP 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP gene expression, and then returned to a different subject. Knocking out or knocking down the B2M, TAP 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP genes as described herein can: (1) prevent Graft versus Host response; (2) prevent Host versus Graft response; and / or (3) improve cell safety and efficacy. Accordingly, certain embodiments of the present disclosure comprise independently knocking out and / or knocking down one or more genes selected from the group consisting of B2M, TAP 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP genes in an iPSC cell. In certain embodiments, a presently disclosed method comprises independently knocking out and / or knocking down two genes selected from the group consisting B2M, TAP 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP genes in an iPSC cell, in particular, B2M and CIITA to achieve class I and II HLA disruption.. In certain embodiments, an iPSC or derivative cell thereof of the application can be further modified by introducing an exogenous polynucleotide encoding one or more proteins related to immune evasion, such as non- Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 classical HLA class I proteins (e.g., HLA-E and HLA-G). In particular, disruption of the B2M gene eliminates surface expression of all MHC class I molecules, leaving cells vulnerable to lysis by NK cells through the “missing self” response. Exogenous HLA-E expression can lead to resistance to NK-mediated lysis (Gornalusse et al., Nat Biotechnol. 2017; 35(8): 765–772). Incorporating MHC I and / or MHC II knock-out and / or knock down in the cells for use in “allogeneic” cell therapies will allow the cell product candidates to escape recognition and destruction by the host immune system. The reduction in allogeneic reactivity enabled by use of this technology will allow repeat dosing of the CAR- modified cell therapies to improve their therapeutic potential. In combination with the extended killing capability of optimized immune cells derived from single genetically engineered cell cloning, the cells will have the capacity for repeat dosing to maximize durability of response and efficacy. Additionally, this technology may permit dosing in patients with limited or no immune preconditioning regimens. Accordingly, in certain embodiments, an iPSC or derivative cell thereof of the application can be further modified by introducing a third exogenous polynucleotide encoding one or more proteins related to immune evasion, such as non-classical HLA class I proteins (e.g., HLA-E and HLA-G). In certain embodiments, the iPSC or derivative cell thereof comprises a third exogenous polypeptide encoding at least one of a human leukocyte antigen E (HLA-E) and human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G). In a particular embodiment, the HLA-E comprises an amino acid sequence at least 90%, such as at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%, identical to SEQ ID NO: 65, preferably the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 65. In a particular embodiment, the HLA-G comprises an amino acid sequence at least 90%, such as at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%, identical to SEQ ID NO: 68, preferably SEQ ID NO: 68. In certain embodiments, the third exogenous polynucleotide encodes a polypeptide comprising a signal peptide operably linked to a mature B2M protein that is fused to an HLA-E via a linker. In a particular embodiment, the third exogenous Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 polypeptide comprises an amino acid sequence at least sequence at least 90%, such as at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%, identical to SEQ ID NO: 66. In other embodiments, the third exogenous polynucleotide encodes a polypeptide comprising a signal peptide operably linked to a mature B2M protein that is fused to an HLA-G via a linker. In a particular embodiment, the third exogenous polypeptide comprises an amino acid sequence at least sequence at least 90%, such as at least 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100%, identical to SEQ ID NO: 69.

In some embodiments, the exogenous polynucleotides for insertion are operatively linked to (1) one or more exogenous promoters comprising CMV, EFla, PGK, CAG, UBC, or other constitutive, inducible, temporal-, tissue-, or cell type-specific promoters; or (2) one or more endogenous promoters comprised in the selected sites comprising AAVS1, CLYBL, CCR5, ROSA26, collagen, HTRP, Hll, beta-2 microglobulin, GAPDH, TCR or RUNX1, or other locus meeting the criteria of a genome safe harbor. In some embodiments, the genome-engineered iPSCs generated using the above method comprise one or more different exogenous polynucleotides encoding proteins comprising caspase, thymidine kinase, cytosine deaminase, B-cell CD20, ErbB2 or CD79b wherein when the genome-engineered iPSCs comprise two or more suicide genes, the suicide genes are integrated in different safe harbor locus comprising AAVSl, CCR5, ROSA26, collagen, HTRP, Hll, beta-2 microglobulin, GAPDH, TCR or RUNX1.

Accordingly, in some aspects, the cells of the present disclosure can comprise genetically engineered iPSCs and cells derived therefrom that exogenously express recombinant CD16 and recombinant NKG2D. The surface receptor CD16 (FcγRIIIA) affects human natural killer (NK) cells during maturation. NK cells bind the Fc portion of IgG via CD16, and execute antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, which is critical for the effectiveness of several anti-tumor monoclonal antibody therapies. NKG2D is a stimulatory / activating receptor that is mostly expressed on cells of the cytotoxic arm of the immune system including NK cells and subsets of T cells. NKG2D is crucial in diverse aspects of innate and adaptive immune functions. In some embodiments, CD16 and NKG2D are expressed from in a single polynucleotide construct as it is advantageous to reduce the number of gene edits of a cell. . In some embodiments, the polynucleotide construct encoding the CD16 protein and the NKG2D protein also includes a polynucleotide sequence encoding an autoprotease peptide or self-cleaving peptide. In some embodiments, an exogenous polynucleotide construct encoding the CD16 protein, the NKG2D protein and the self- cleaving peptide is introduced into the iPSC or derivative cell thereof.

As discussed above, provided herein are constructs containing autoprotease peptide sequences including 2A peptides that can induce ribosomal skipping during translation of an polypeptide.2A peptides function to “cleave” an mRNA transcript by making the ribosome skip the synthesis of a peptide bond at the C-terminus, between the glycine (G) and proline (P) residues, thereby leading to separation between the end of the 2A sequence and the next peptide downstream.2A peptides include, but are not limited to, a porcine tesehovirus-12A (P2A) peptide, a foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) 2A (F2A) peptide, an Equine Rhinitis A Virus (ERAV) 2A (E2A) peptide, a Thosea asigna virus 2A (T2A) peptide, a cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus 2A (BmCPV2A) peptide, and a Flacherie Virus 2A (BmIFV2A) peptide. An exemplary P2A peptide can include an amino acid sequence having at least 90%, such as 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or 100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 91. In some embodiment, the P2A peptide has the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 91. Another optional genome edit is the insertion of a polynucleotide encoding a a 12 (IL-12) comprising a first polypeptide comprising an IL- 12 alpha subunit p35, a second polypeptide comprising an IL-12 beta subunit p40 and a transmembrane fused to the terminus of the first and / or second IL-12 subunit polypeptide Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 as disclosed in co-pending patent application PCT / US23 / 68105. In certain embodiments, the polynucleotide encoding the membrane bound IL-12 is fused to a polynucleotide encoding an ADAM17 protease cleavage site peptide for the activation induced release of the IL-12 through the protease ADAM17. ADAM17 is expressed by activated lymphocytes and is directly involved in the liberation of other immune mediators like TNFa that are similarly presented as a membrane anchored form. When this membrane tethered IL-12 is expressed on engineered iNK or T cells, it remains cell associated. Upon cell activation and the increased expression of ADAM17, the protease cleaves the membrane stalk and releases IL-12 into the extracellular space. This type of regulation ensures that the activities of the IL-12 are confined to spaces surrounding the tumor where the engineered immune cells engage their targets on the tumor cells that cause their activation. Accordingly, the cell of the present disclosure can further comprise (i) an exogenous polynucleotide encoding a membrane-bound interleukin 12 (IL-12) comprising a first polypeptide comprising an IL-12 alpha subunit p35 or a polypeptide at least 90% similar thereto, a second polypeptide comprising an IL-12 beta subunit p40 or a polypeptide at least 90% similar thereto, and a transmembrane domain fused to the terminus of the first and / or second IL-12 subunit polypeptide. In some other embodiments, the genome-engineered iPSCs generated using the method provided herein comprise in / del at one or more endogenous genes associated with targeting modality, receptors, signaling molecules, transcription factors, drug target candidates, immune response regulation and modulation, or proteins suppressing engraftment, trafficking, homing, viability, self-renewal, persistence, and / or survival of the iPSCs or derivative cells thereof. VII. Targeted Genome Editing at Selected Locus in iPSCs According to embodiments of the application, one or more of the exogenous polynucleotides are integrated at one or more loci on the chromosome of an iPSC. Genome editing, or genomic editing, or genetic editing, as used interchangeably herein, is a type of genetic engineering in which DNA is inserted, deleted, and / or replaced in the genome of a targeted cell. Targeted genome editing (interchangeable with “targeted genomic editing” or “targeted genetic editing”) enables insertion, deletion, Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 and / or substitution at pre-selected sites in the genome. When an endogenous sequence is deleted or disrupted at the insertion site during targeted editing, an endogenous gene comprising the affected sequence can be knocked-out or knocked-down due to the sequence deletion or disruption. Therefore, targeted editing can also be used to disrupt endogenous gene expression with precision. Similarly used herein is the term “targeted integration,” referring to a process involving insertion of one or more exogenous sequences at pre-selected sites in the genome, with or without deletion of an endogenous sequence at the insertion site. Targeted editing can be achieved either through a nuclease-independent approach, or through a nuclease-dependent approach. In the nuclease-independent targeted editing approach, homologous recombination is guided by homologous sequences flanking an exogenous polynucleotide to be inserted, through the enzymatic machinery of the host cell. Alternatively, targeted editing could be achieved with higher frequency through specific introduction of double strand breaks (DSBs) by specific rare-cutting endonucleases. Such nuclease-dependent targeted editing utilizes DNA repair mechanisms including non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), which occurs in response to DSBs. Without a donor vector containing exogenous genetic material, the NHEJ often leads to random insertions or deletions (in / dels) of a small number of endogenous nucleotides. In comparison, when a donor vector containing exogenous genetic material flanked by a pair of homology arms is present, the exogenous genetic material can be introduced into the genome during homology directed repair (HDR) by homologous recombination, resulting in a “targeted integration.” Available endonucleases capable of introducing specific and targeted DSBs include, but not limited to, zinc-finger nucleases (ZFN), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALEN), RNA-guided CRISPR (Clustered Regular Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats) systems. Additionally, DICE (dual integrase cassette exchange) system utilizing phiC31 and Bxbl integrases is also a promising tool for targeted integration. ZFNs are targeted nucleases comprising a nuclease fused to a zinc finger DNA binding domain. By a “zinc finger DNA binding domain” or “ZFBD” it is meant a Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 polypeptide domain that binds DNA in a sequence-specific manner through one or more zinc fingers. A zinc finger is a domain of about 30 amino acids within the zinc finger binding domain whose structure is stabilized through coordination of a zinc ion. Examples of zinc fingers include, but not limited to, C2H2 zinc fingers, C3H zinc fingers, and C4 zinc fingers. A “designed” zinc finger domain is a domain not occurring in nature whose design / composition results principally from rational criteria, e.g., application of substitution rules and computerized algorithms for processing information in a database storing information of existing ZFP designs and binding data. See, for example, U.S. Pat. Nos.6,140,081; 6,453,242; and 6,534,261; see also WO 98 / 53058; WO 98 / 53059; WO 98 / 53060; WO 02 / 016536 and WO 03 / 016496. A “selected” zinc finger domain is a domain not found in nature whose production results primarily from an empirical process such as phage display, interaction trap or hybrid selection. ZFNs are described in greater detail in U.S. Pat. No.7,888,121 and U.S. Pat. No.7,972,854, the complete disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. The most recognized example of a ZFN in the art is a fusion of the Fokl nuclease with a zinc finger DNA binding domain. A TALEN is a targeted nuclease comprising a nuclease fused to a TAL effector DNA binding domain. By “transcription activator-like effector DNA binding domain”, “TAL effector DNA binding domain”, or “TALE DNA binding domain” it is meant the polypeptide domain of TAL effector proteins that is responsible for binding of the TAL effector protein to DNA. TAL effector proteins are secreted by plant pathogens of the genus Xanthomonas during infection. These proteins enter the nucleus of the plant cell, bind effector-specific DNA sequences via their DNA binding domain, and activate gene transcription at these sequences via their transactivation domains. TAL effector DNA binding domain specificity depends on an effector-variable number of imperfect 34 amino acid repeats, which comprise polymorphisms at select repeat positions called repeat variable-diresidues (RVD). TALENs are described in greater detail in U.S. Patent Application No.2011 / 0145940, which is herein incorporated by reference. The most recognized example of a TALEN in the art is a fusion polypeptide of the Fokl nuclease to a TAL effector DNA binding domain. Another example of a targeted nuclease that finds use in the subject methods is a targeted Spoll nuclease, a polypeptide comprising a Spol l polypeptide having nuclease Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 activity fused to a DNA binding domain, e.g. a zinc finger DNA binding domain, a TAL effector DNA binding domain, etc. that has specificity for a DNA sequence of interest. See, for example, U.S. Application No.61 / 555,857, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Additional examples of targeted nucleases suitable for the present application include, but not limited to Bxbl, phiC3 l, R4, PhiBTl, and Wp / SPBc / TP90l-l, whether used individually or in combination. Other non-limiting examples of targeted nucleases include naturally occurring and recombinant nucleases; CRISPR related nucleases from families including cas, cpf, cse, csy, csn, csd, cst, csh, csa, csm, and cmr; restriction endonucleases; meganucleases; homing endonucleases, and the like. As an example, CRISPR / Cas9 requires two major components: (1) a Cas9 endonuclease and (2) the crRNA-tracrRNA complex. When co- expressed, the two components form a complex that is recruited to a target DNA sequence comprising PAM and a seeding region near PAM. The crRNA and tracrRNA can be combined to form a chimeric guide RNA (gRNA) to guide Cas9 to target selected sequences. These two components can then be delivered to mammalian cells via transfection or transduction. As another example, CRISPR / Cpf1 comprises two major components: (1) a CPf1 endonuclease and (2) a crRNA. When co-expressed, the two components form a ribobnucleoprotein (RNP) complex that is recruited to a target DNA sequence comprising PAM and a seeding region near PAM. The crRNA can be combined to form a chimeric guide RNA (gRNA) to guide Cpf1 to target selected sequences. These two components can then be delivered to mammalian cells via transfection or transduction. MAD7 is an engineered Cas12a variant originating from the bacterium Eubacterium rectale that has a preference for 5′-TTTN-3′ and 5′-CTTN-3′ PAM sites and does not require a tracrRNA. See, for example, PCT Publication No. 2018 / 236548, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. DICE mediated insertion uses a pair of recombinases, for example, phiC31 and Bxbl, to provide unidirectional integration of an exogenous DNA that is tightly restricted to each enzymes’ own small attB and attP recognition sites. Because these target att sites are not naturally present in mammalian genomes, they must be first introduced into the Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 genome, at the desired integration site. See, for example, U.S. Application Publication No.2015 / 0140665, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. One aspect of the present application provides a construct comprising one or more exogenous polynucleotides for targeted genome integration. In one embodiment, the construct further comprises a pair of homologous arms specific to a desired integration site, and the method of targeted integration comprises introducing the construct to cells to enable site specific homologous recombination by the cell host enzymatic machinery. In another embodiment, the method of targeted integration in a cell comprises introducing a construct comprising one or more exogenous polynucleotides to the cell, and introducing a ZFN expression cassette comprising a DNA-binding domain specific to a desired integration site to the cell to enable a ZFN-mediated insertion. In yet another embodiment, the method of targeted integration in a cell comprises introducing a construct comprising one or more exogenous polynucleotides to the cell, and introducing a TALEN expression cassette comprising a DNA-binding domain specific to a desired integration site to the cell to enable a TALEN-mediated insertion. In another embodiment, the method of targeted integration in a cell comprises introducing a construct comprising one or more exogenous polynucleotides to the cell, introducing a Cpf1 expression cassette, and a gRNA comprising a guide sequence specific to a desired integration site to the cell to enable a Cpf1-mediated insertion. In another embodiment, the method of targeted integration in a cell comprises introducing a construct comprising one or more exogenous polynucleotides to the cell, introducing a Cas9 expression cassette, and a gRNA comprising a guide sequence specific to a desired integration site to the cell to enable a Cas9-mediated insertion. In still another embodiment, the method of targeted integration in a cell comprises introducing a construct comprising one or more att sites of a pair of DICE recombinases to a desired integration site in the cell, introducing a construct comprising one or more exogenous polynucleotides to the cell, and introducing an expression cassette for DICE recombinases, to enable DICE-mediated targeted integration. Sites for targeted integration include, but are not limited to, genomic safe harbors, which are intragenic or extragenic regions of the human genome that, theoretically, are able to accommodate predictable expression of newly integrated DNA without adverse Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 effects on the host cell or organism. In certain embodiments, the genome safe harbor for the targeted integration is one or more loci of genes selected from the group consisting of AAVS1, CLYBL, CCR5, ROSA26, collagen, HTRP, Hll, GAPDH, TCR and RUNX1 genes. In other embodiments, the site for targeted integration is selected for deletion or reduced expression of an endogenous gene at the insertion site. As used herein, the term “deletion” with respect to expression of a gene refers to any genetic modification that abolishes the expression of the gene. Examples of “deletion” of expression of a gene include, e.g., a removal or deletion of a DNA sequence of the gene, an insertion of an exogenous polynucleotide sequence at a locus of the gene, and one or more substitutions within the gene, which abolishes the expression of the gene. Genes for target deletion include, but are not limited to, genes of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and MHC class II proteins. Multiple MHC class I and class II proteins must be matched for histocompatibility in allogeneic recipients to avoid allogeneic rejection problems. “MHC deficient”, including MHC-class I deficient, or MHC-class II deficient, or both, refers to cells that either lack, or no longer maintain, or have reduced level of surface expression of a complete MHC complex comprising a MHC class I protein heterodimer and / or a MHC class II heterodimer, such that the diminished or reduced level is less than the level naturally detectable by other cells or by synthetic methods. MHC class I deficiency can be achieved by functional deletion of any region of the MHC class I locus (chromosome 6p2l), or deletion or reducing the expression level of one or more MHC class-I associated genes including, not being limited to, beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) gene, TAP 1 gene, TAP 2 gene and Tapasin genes. For example, the B2M gene encodes a common subunit essential for cell surface expression of all MHC class I heterodimers. B2M null cells are MHC-I deficient. MHC class II deficiency can be achieved by functional deletion or reduction of MHC-II associated genes including, not being limited to, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP. CIITA is a transcriptional coactivator, functioning through activation of the transcription factor RFX5 required for class II protein expression. CIITA null cells are MHC-II deficient. In certain embodiments, one or more of the exogenous polynucleotides are integrated at one or more loci of genes selected from the group consisting of B2M, TAP Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP genes to thereby delete or reduce the expression of the gene(s) with the integration. Other genes that may be targeted for deletion include NKG2A, CD38, CD70 and CD33. In certain embodiments, the exogenous polynucleotides are integrated at one or more loci on the chromosome of the cell, preferably the one or more loci are of genes selected from the group consisting of AAVS1, CLYBL, CCR5, ROSA26, collagen, HTRP, Hl l, GAPDH, RUNX1, B2M, TAPI, TAP2, Tapasin, NLRC5, CIITA, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5, RFXAP, TCR a or b constant region, NKG2A, NKG2D, CD33, CD38, CIS, CBL-B, SOCS2, PD1, CTLA4, LAG3, TIM3, or TIGIT genes, provided at least one of the one or more loci is of a MHC gene, such as a gene selected from the group consisting of B2M, TAP 1, TAP 2, Tapasin, RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5 and RFXAP genes. Preferably, the one or more exogenous polynucleotides are integrated at a locus of an MHC class-I associated gene, such as a beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) gene, TAP 1 gene, TAP 2 gene or Tapasin gene; and at a locus of an MHC-II associated gene, such as a RFXANK, CIITA, RFX5, RFXAP, or CIITA gene; and optionally further at a locus of a safe harbor gene selected from the group consisting of AAVS1, CLYBL, CCR5, ROSA26, collagen, HTRP, Hll, GAPDH, TCR and RUNX1 genes. More preferably, the one or more of the exogenous polynucleotides are integrated at the loci of CIITA, AAVS1 and B2M genes. In certain embodiments, (i) the first exogenous polynucleotide is integrated at a locus of AAVS1 gene or CLYBL gene; (ii) the second exogenous polypeptide is integrated at a locus of CIITA gene; and (iii) the third exogenous polypeptide is integrated at a locus of B2M gene; wherein integrations of the exogenous polynucleotides delete or reduce expression of CIITA and B2M genes.

Exemplary methods are described in US8846395, US8945922, US8318491, WO2010 / 099539, WO2012 / 109208, WO2017 / 070333, WO2017 / 179720, WO2016 / 010148, WO2018 / 048828, WO2019 / 157597, WO2022 / 120334, WO2022 / 133169, WO2022 / 216624, WO2022 / 216514, and WO2022 / 216524, each of which are herein incorporated by reference in its entirety. The differentiation protocol may use feeder cells or may be feeder-free. As used herein, “feeder cells” or “feeders” are terms describing cells of one type that are co-cultured with cells of a second type to provide an environment in which the cells of the second type can grow, expand, or differentiate, as the feeder cells provide stimulation, growth factors and nutrients for the support of the second cell type. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the iPSC derivative cells are NK cells which are prepared by a method of differentiating an iPSC into an NK cell by subjecting the cells to a differentiation protocol including the addition of recombinant human IL-12p70 for the final 24 hours of culture. By including the IL-12 in the differentiation protocol, cells that are primed with IL-12 demonstrate more rapid cell killing compared to those that are differentiated in the absence of IL-12. In addition, the cells differentiated using the IL-12 conditions demonstrate improved cancer cell growth inhibition. IX. Polynucleotides, vectors, and host cells (1) Nucleic acids encoding a GPCR CAR In another general aspect, the present disclosure relates to an isolated nucleic acid encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) having a GPCR scaffold (GPCR CAR) useful for embodiments of the application. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the coding sequence of a GPCR CAR can be changed (e.g., replaced, deleted, inserted, etc.) without changing the amino acid sequence of the protein. Accordingly, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that nucleic acid sequences encoding GPCR CARs of the application can be altered without changing the amino acid sequences of the proteins. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 In another general aspect, the application provides a vector comprising a polynucleotide sequence encoding a GPCR CAR useful for embodiments of the application. Any vector known to those skilled in the art in view of the present disclosure can be used, such as a plasmid, a cosmid, a phage vector or a viral vector. In some embodiments, the vector is a recombinant expression vector such as a plasmid. The vector can include any element to establish a conventional function of an expression vector, for example, a promoter, ribosome binding element, terminator, enhancer, selection marker, and origin of replication. The promoter can be a constitutive, inducible, or repressible promoter. A number of expression vectors capable of delivering nucleic acids to a cell are known in the art and can be used herein for production of a GPCR CAR in the cell. Conventional cloning techniques or artificial gene synthesis can be used to generate a recombinant expression vector according to embodiments of the application.

Methods of Use of Engineered Cells Primary cancer cells can be readily distinguished from non-cancerous cells by well-established techniques, particularly histological examination. The definition of a cancer cell, as used herein, includes not only a primary cancer cell, but any cell derived from a cancer cell ancestor. This includes metastasized cancer cells, and in vitro cultures and cell lines derived from cancer cells. When referring to a type of cancer that normally manifests as a solid tumour, a "clinically detectable" tumour is one that is detectable on the basis of tumour mass; e.g., by procedures such as computed tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), X-ray, ultrasound or palpation on physical examination, and / or which is detectable because of the expression of one or more cancer- specific antigens in a sample obtainable from a patient. Cancer conditions may be characterized by the abnormal proliferation of malignant cancer cells and may include leukemias, such as AML, CML, ALL and CLL, lymphomas, such as Hodgkin lymphoma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and multiple myeloma, and solid cancers such as sarcomas, skin cancer, melanoma, bladder cancer, brain cancer, breast cancer, uterus cancer, ovary cancer, prostate cancer, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical cancer, liver cancer, head and neck cancer, esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, renal cancer, adrenal cancer, stomach cancer, testicular cancer, cancer of the gall bladder and biliary tracts, thyroid cancer, thymus cancer, cancer of bone, and cerebral cancer, as well as cancer of unknown primary (CUP). Cancer cells within an individual may be immunologically distinct from normal somatic cells in the individual (i.e. the cancerous tumour may be immunogenic). For example, the cancer cells may be capable of eliciting a systemic immune response in the individual against one or more antigens expressed by the cancer cells. The tumour antigens that elicit the immune response may be specific to cancer cells or may be shared by one or more normal cells in the individual. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 The cancer cells of an individual suitable for treatment as described herein may express the antigen and / or may be of correct HLA type to bind the antigen receptor expressed by the Τ cells. An individual suitable for treatment as described above may be a mammal. In preferred embodiments, the individual is a human. In other preferred embodiments, non- human mammals, especially mammals that are conventionally used as models for demonstrating therapeutic efficacy in humans (e.g. murine, primate, porcine, canine, or rabbit animals) may be employed. In some embodiments, the individual may have minimal residual disease (MRD) after an initial cancer treatment. In some embodiments, the individual may have no minimal residual disease after one or more cancer treatments or repeated dosing. In some aspects, the present disclosure provides methods for treating a subject with a therapeutic dose of a composition comprising iPSCs or a derivative cell thereof (e.g., a genetically engineered allogenic NK or T cell). In some embodiments, such methods can comprise a step of administering a therapeutically effective dose of the composition. In some cases, a single therapeutically effective dose is administered, In some cases, two or more therapeutically effective doses are administered in series. In some embodiments, engineered cells of the present disclosure may be administered in a single dose, and such administration may be by injection, e.g., intravenous injection. In some embodiments, engineered cell of the present disclosure may be administered in multiple doses. Dosing may be once, twice, three times, four times, five times, six times, or more than six times per year. Dosing may be once a month, once every two weeks, once a week, or once every other day. Administration of engineered cells of the present disclosure may continue as long as necessary. Suitable administration of a therapeutically effective doses can comprise administration of a single dose, or can comprise administration of sequential doses daily, semi-weekly, weekly, once every two weeks, once a month, annually, etc. In some cases, a therapeutically effective dose is administered as two or more doses of escalating concentration (i.e., increasing doses), where (i) all of the doses are therapeutic doses, or where (ii) a sub-therapeutic dose (or two or more sub-therapeutic doses) is initially given and therapeutic doses are achieved by said escalation. As one non-limiting example to illustrate escalating concentration Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 (i.e., increasing doses), a therapeutically effective dose can be administered weekly, beginning with a sub-therapeutic dose, and each subsequent dose can be increased by a particular increment, or by variable increments, until a therapeutic dose is reached, at which point administration may cease or may continue. As another non-limiting example to illustrate escalating concentration, a therapeutically effective dose can be administered weekly, beginning with a therapeutic dose, and each subsequent dose can be increased by a particular increment, or by variable increments, until a therapeutic dose is reached, at which point administration may cease or may continue. In some embodiments, administration of a therapeutically effective dose can be a continuous infusion and the dose can altered (e.g., escalated) over time. Dosage and frequency may vary depending on the half-life of the cell composition in the patient, and / or mode of administration. An individual with cancer may display at least one identifiable sign, symptom, or laboratory finding that is sufficient to make a diagnosis of cancer in accordance with clinical standards known in the art. Examples of such clinical standards can be found in textbooks of medicine such as Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine, 15th Ed., Fauci AS et al., eds., McGraw-Hill, New York, 2001. In some instances, a diagnosis of a cancer in an individual may include identification of a particular cell type (e.g. a cancer cell) in a sample of a body fluid or tissue obtained from the individual. An anti-tumor effect is a biological effect which can be manifested by a reduction in the rate of tumor growth, decrease in tumor volume, a decrease in the number of tumor cells, a decrease in the number of metastases, an increase in life expectancy, or amelioration of various physiological symptoms associated with the cancerous condition. An "anti-tumor effect" can also be manifested by the ability of the peptides, polynucleotides, cells and antibodies, also Τ cells which may be obtained according to the methods of the present disclosure , as described herein in prevention of the occurrence of tumors in the first place. Treatment may be any treatment and / or therapy, whether of a human or an animal (e.g. in veterinary applications), in which some desired therapeutic effect is achieved, for example, the inhibition or delay of the progress of the condition, and includes a reduction in the rate of progress, a halt in the rate of progress, amelioration of the condition, cure or remission (whether partial or total) of the condition, preventing, delaying, abating or Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 arresting one or more symptoms and / or signs of the condition or prolonging survival of a subject or patient beyond that expected in the absence of treatment. Treatment may also be prophylactic (i.e. prophylaxis). For example, an individual susceptible to or at risk of the occurrence or re-occurrence of cancer may be treated as described herein. Such treatment may prevent or delay the occurrence or re-occurrence of cancer in the individual. In particular, treatment may include inhibiting cancer growth, including complete cancer remission, and / or inhibiting cancer metastasis. Cancer growth generally refers to any one of a number of indices that indicate change within the cancer to a more developed form. Thus, indices for measuring an inhibition of cancer growth include a decrease in cancer cell survival, a decrease in tumor volume or morphology (for example, as determined using computed tomographic (CT), sonography, or other imaging method), a delayed tumor growth, a destruction of tumor vasculature, improved performance in delayed hypersensitivity skin test, an increase in the activity of Τ cells, and a decrease in levels of tumor-specific antigens. Administration of Τ cells modified as described herein may improve the capacity of the individual to resist cancer growth, in particular growth of a cancer already present the subject and / or decrease the propensity for cancer growth in the individual.

Expression of GPCR CARs in Nurkat Cells Rationale Conventional CARs have a single transmembrane domain, and are thus limited in their engineerability because additional extracellular or intracellular domains must be engineered onto the receptor in a linear fashion. For extracellular domains, additional binders to increase CAR valency or specificity for one or more antigens can reduce functionality by increasing the distance between cells in an immune synapse. For Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 intracellular domains, additional domains can increase the distance of those domains from membrane bound kinases involved in signal transduction (e.g., Lck) and hamper their functionality. Typically, these issues have been overcome by engineering multiple single pass receptors. A multi-transmembrane domain-containing CAR can allow a single receptor to contain multiple binders or additional endodomains without a reduction in functionality or diminished signal transduction. Experimental Design Receptors were designed that included fusion of the 9G8 anti-EGFR binder to the N terminus of CXCR3 to confer antigen binding capabilities, and used as a template to incorporate immunostimulatory endodomains, including CD3z, 4-1BB, CD28, and OX40. The schema for engineering of these receptors is shown in Table 8 and FIG.1A- H. Mutation set refers to whether the CXCR3 sequence was mutated or kept as the wild- type AA sequence. WT = wild-type. C / N = ecto / endo dead containing mutations according to Colvin et al, 2006 (10.1128 / MCB.00556-06), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety, to eliminate binding of CXCR3 to its cognate chemokines and abrogate CXCR3-mediated chemotaxis. Those relevant mutated residues are Y27A, Y29A, R149N, S245A, and deletion of L332 - L368. ICL1 / 2 / 3 = intracellular loop 1 / 2 / 3. 28 = CD28 costimulatory domain. BB = 4-1BB costimulatory domain. G4S-28, CD28 costimulatory domain with a preceding GGGGS linker. OX40 = OX40 costimulatory domain. z = CD3z activating domain. x = no endomain inserted. Table 8.

Nurkats were resuspended in R10 media +3ug / mL polybrene at .5e6 / mL and plated 500uL per well into 24 well plates.100uL lentivirus was applied to each well. p2320 (9G8-CD8HTM.BB.z) and p2321 (9G8-CD28HTMcostim.z) were used as conventional CAR controls.3 days post transduction, CAR expression was assessed. 100uL cell suspension was plated at n=2 in a 96 well v-bottom plate. Plates were washed twice, and centrifuged for 3min at 300xg. Supernatant was discarded and 150uL BD stain buffer was added, followed by brief shaking (~2400rpm) on the vortexer to resuspend the cell pellet.50uL of primary stain containing anti-Camelid VHH AF647 (Genscript) 1:500 was added, and cells were incubated at 4oC for 25-30min. Cells were washed twice as before and resuspended in 30uL stain buffer for Intellicyte analysis. Flow cytometry data was collected using the Intellicyte cytometer and analyzed in FlowJo. Results As shown in Fig.2A, the flow cytometry gating strategy for GPCR-CAR- expressing nurkat cells. RL1-A is the area channel for fluorescence from Alexa Fluor 647. As shown in Fig.2B, Most GPCR CAR Constructs yield expression greater than 50%. Constructs in which CD28 costimulatory domain was inserted into ICL1 (AMD204, 205, 222) show reduced expression. Conclusions Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 GPCR CARs showed high expression levels greater than 50%, and most constructs were comparable in expression level to the conventional CAR controls in the sample set, p2320 and p2321. This demonstrated the feasibility of engineering the intracellular loops of GPCRs to incorporate additional domains. The reduced expression of ICL1 insertion GPCR CARs demonstrated that certain engineering strategies can yield more stable and better-expressing receptors. Example 2. Expression of GPCR CARs in Primary T Cells Donor PBMCs were thawed (>90%% viability post thaw, ~75e6 cells total). T cells were isolated from the PBMCs using the Miltenyi T cell isolation kit according to the manufacturer's protocol. Final T cell yield was ~12e6 T cells at >98%% viability. Cell concentration was adjusted to 1e6 in R10+50U / mL human IL2, and 2mL was pipetted into 4 wells each of a 24 well plate (8e6 total), 20uL Miltenyi TransAct reagent was added to each well to activate the T cells. Cells were incubated at 37oC for two days. Activated T cells were combined and counted (~8e6 total cells).5.25e6 cells were pelleted. A mastermix of transduction-cell suspension was created according to Table 9. Table 9. Transduction Reagent volumes for (20+1 Reactions) R10+50U IL2 / mL Media (mL) 84 500uL of mastermix was plated into each well of 20 wells of a 24 well plate.  100uL of lentivirus containing the blow plasmids was added to designated wells. The 20th well was untransduced (UTD) and received no virus. T cells were expanded as needed every other or every 3rd day to maintain a suspension of ~.5e6 cells / mL without exceeding 2e6 / mL.7 days post transduction, CAR expression was assessed.100uL cell suspension was plated at n=2 in a 96 well v-bottom plate. Plates were washed twice, and centrifuged for 3min at 300xg. Supernatant was dumped and 150uL BD stain buffer was added, followed by brief shaking (~2400rpm) on the vortexer to resuspend the cell pellet. 50uL primary stain containing anti-Camelid VHH AF647 (Genscript) 1:500 and Sytox Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 Green (Invitrogen) 1:1000 was added. Cells were incubated at 4oC for 25-30min. Cells were washed twice as before and resuspended in 30uL stain buffer for Intellicyte analysis. Flow cytometry data was collected using the Intellicyte cytometer and analyzed in FlowJo. Results As shown in Fig.3A, flow cytometry gating strategy for detection of GPCR-CAR transduced primary T cells. BL2-A is the area channel for fluorescence of Sytox Green Dead cell stain. RL1-A is the area channel for fluorescence of AF647 anti-VHH cocktail for detection of VHH-containing CARs. Gating strategy shown for untransduced (UTD) T cells. As shown in Fig.3B, CAR expression values of transduced primary T cells as a percentage of live cells. Conclusions CXCR3 GPCR CARs having the C / N mutation set showed poor expression (~<10% CAR+). WT CXCR3 CARs had a range of expression, with AMD200, AMD208, and AMD232 having relatively high expression levels, comparable to or higher than the conventional CAR controls. AMD246, which incorporates CD28, OX40, 4-1BB and CD3z into one receptor also had relatively high expression. Incorporation of a CD28 costimulatory domain reduced CAR expression. For example, AMD 204 and AMD240 both have insertions in ICL1, however AMD204, which includes a CD28 insertion into ICL1, expressed significantly worse than AMD240, which incorporates OX40 into ICL1.9G8-CXCR3 constructs of both the WT and C / N varieties had high expression near or greater than 50% positive, suggesting that incorporation of additional endodomains disrupted expression of C / N constructs. Example 3. T Cell Cytotoxicity Against Nalm6 Cells WT CXCR3 CAR constructs were advanced for a cytotoxicity analysis against Nalm6 NLR and Nalm6 NLR EGFR cells. Nalm6 NLR without EGFR are a negative control and test whether the GPCR CAR format may create nonspecific cytotoxicity. Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 Each CAR T was cocultured with both target cell lines at 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 1:5, and 1:10 E:T ratios, adjusted for CAR%. Since CAR positivity was variable among the CAR Ts tested, several UTD T cell cocultures were prepared with the amount of UTD T cells added adjusted as though they had 10%, 20%, 30%, or 45% CAR expression.20e6 of each target cell line was labeled with CTV according to the manufacturer’s suggested protocol and resuspended @ .4e6 / mL.75uL of target cell line was added to each well according to the plate map for .03e6 target cells / well. T cells were counted, aliquoted, pelleted, and then resuspended according to Table 10. The resuspension volume for each T cell was determined based on the cell concentration needed for a 2:1 E:T ratio. This stock was then diluted to make cell suspensions for the 1:1, 1:2, 1:5, and 1:10 E:T ratios.

[0088] Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 For each plate, cocultures were mixed and then transferred to 96 well V bottom plates. Plates were washed twice. Plates were centrifuged for 3min at 300xg. Supernatant was discarded and 150uL BD stain buffer was added, followed by brief shaking (~2400rpm) on the vortexer to resuspend the cell pellet.50uL primary stain containing Near IR Fluorescent Reactive Dye (Invitrogen) 1:1000 and anti-human CD25 PE (Biolegend) 1:50 was added. Cells were incubated at 4oC for 25-30min. Cells were washed twice as before and resuspended in 30uL stain buffer for Intellicyte analysis. Flow cytometry data was collected using the Intellicyte cytometer and analyzed in FlowJo. Results As shown in Fig.5, cytotoxicity of GPCR-CAR expressing T cells compared to T cells transduced with conventional CAR equivalents. T cell samples are grouped by similar CARs. CARs with 4-1BB and CD3z only are grouped, with p2320 being the conventional CAR equivalent. CD28- and CD3z-only CARs are grouped, with p2321 being the conventional CAR equivalent. Finally, CARs with CD28, 4-1BB, (and for AMD246, also OX40) and CD3z are grouped together, with 3G-9G8 being a CD28 / 4- 1BB / CD3z 3rdgeneration conventional CAR equivalent. Conclusions Most GPCR CAR constructs conferred cytotoxicity nearly equivalent to or surpassing their conventional CAR counterparts. The exceptions to this were AMD204, and AMD246, which both incorporate costimulatory domains into ICL1. This engineering step reduced functionality of the receptors, possibly due to reduced expression levels. Constructs with CD28 inserted into ICL3, AMD232 and AMD208 showed the highest levels of cytotoxicity in the assay. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that changes could be made to the embodiments described above without departing from the broad inventive concept thereof. It is understood, therefore, that this invention is not limited to the particular Docket No.: 066461.11126 / 25WO1 embodiments disclosed, but it is intended to cover modifications within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the present description.
