WSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601T CELL RECEPTOR CONSTRUCTS AND USES THEREOF CROSS REFERENCE
[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63 / 750,637, filed on January 28, 2025, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.BACKGROUND
[0002] T cell receptors (TCRs) are members of the immunoglobulin superfamily and usually consist of two subunits, namely the a- and [3-subunits. These possess one N-terminal immunoglobulin (Ig)-variable (V) domain, one Ig-constant (C) domain, a transmembrane / cell membrane -spanning region, and a short cytoplasmic tail at the C-terminal end. The variable domains of both the TCR a-chain and [3-chain have three hypervariable or complementarity determining regions (CDRs), whereas the variable region of the [3-chain has an additional area of hypervariability (HV4) that does not normally contact antigen and therefore is not considered a CDR.
[0003] CDR3 is the principal CDR responsible for recognizing processed antigen, although CDR1 of the alpha chain has also been shown to interact with the N-terminal part of the antigenic peptide, whereas CDR1 of the [3-chain interacts with the C-terminal part of the peptide. CDR2 is thought to recognize the MHC. The constant domain of the TCR domain consists of short connecting sequences in which a cysteine residue forms disulfide bonds, which forms a link between the two chains. The affinity of TCR’s for a specific antigen makes them valuable for several therapeutic approaches. For example, cancer patients, such as melanoma patients, can be effectively treated by using adoptive immunotherapy as TCRs are exquisitely sensitive for their antigen and can direct immune responses at tumor cells expressing their cognate antigen. Accordingly, there is a need for TCRs against peptide-MHC complexes for development of new and effective therapeutics.SUMMARY

[0060] The term “about” or “approximately” means within an acceptable error range for the particular value as determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, which will depend in part on how the value is measured or determined, e.g., the limitations of the measurement system. For example, “about” can mean within 1 or more than 1 standard deviation, per the practice in the art. Alternatively, “about” can mean a range of up to 20%, up to 10%, up to 5%, or up to 1% of a given value. Alternatively, particularly with respect to biological systems or processes, the term can mean within an order of magnitude, preferably within 5 -fold, and more preferably within 2-fold, of a value. Where particular values are described in the application and claims, unless otherwise stated the term “about” meaning within an acceptable error range for the particular value should be assumed.
[0061] Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. Although any methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can also be used in the practice or testing of the present disclosure, the preferred methods and materials are now described. The details of one or more particular embodiments are set forth in the description below.I. Definitions
[0062] Unless otherwise stated, the term “TCR” should be understood to encompass full TCRs as well as antigen-binding portions or antigen-binding fragments (also called MHC -peptide binding fragments) thereof. In some embodiments, the TCR is an intact or full-length TCR. In some embodiments, the TCR is an antigen-binding portion that is less than a full-length TCR but that binds to a specific antigenic peptide bound to (e.g., in the context of) an MHC molecule, e.g., an MHC-peptide complex. In some cases, an antigen-binding portion or fragment of a TCR can contain only a portion of the structural domains of a full-length or intact TCR, but yet is able to bind the epitope (e.g., MHC-peptide complex) to which the full TCR binds. In some cases, an antigen-binding portion or fragment of a TCR contains the variable domains of a TCR, such as variable a chain and variable [3 chain of a TCR, sufficient to form a binding site for binding to a specific MHC-peptide complex, such as generally where each chain contains threeWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601complementarity determining regions. Polypeptides or proteins having a binding domain which is an antigen-binding domain or is homologous to an antigen-binding domain are included. Complementarity determining region (CDR) grafted TCRs and other humanized TCRs (including CDR modifications and framework region modifications) are also contemplated by these terms. It should be noted that while reference may be made only to immunoglobulin chains (e.g. , heavy chains and lights chains), the disclosed invention can be applied to multiple other different types of paired sequences, e.g., T cell receptor chain pairs (TCRa and TCRP chains and TCRy and TCRS chains), and is not limited to immunoglobulins.
[0063] The terms “complementarity determining region,” and “CDR,” synonymous with “hypervariable region” or “HVR,” are known in the art to refer to non-contiguous sequences of amino acids within TCR variable regions, which confer specificity and / or binding affinity to an MHC-peptide complex. In general, there are three CDRs in each alpha chain variable region (CDR-H1, CDR-H2, CDR-H3) and three CDRs in each beta chain variable region (CDR-L1, CDR-L2, CDR-L3). “Framework regions” and “FR” are known in the art to refer to the non-CDR portions of the variable regions of the alpha and beta chains. In general, there are four FRs in each full-length alpha chain variable region (FR-H1, FR-H2, FR-H3, and FR-H4), and four FRs in each full-length beta chain variable region (FR-L1, FR-L2, FR-L3, and FR-L4).
[0064] The term “variable region” or “variable domain” refers to the domain of a TCR alpha, beta, gamma, or delta chain, that is involved in binding the TCR to antigen-MHC complexes. The variable domains of the alpha chain and beta chain (Va and Vp, respectively), and the gamma chain and delta chain (Vy and VS, respectively) of a native TCR generally have similar structures, with each domain comprising four conserved framework regions (FRs) and three CDRs. A single Va or VP domain, or Vy or VS domain, may be sufficient to confer binding specificity to a peptide-MHC complex.
[0065] Also provided herein are TCR fragments, including antigen-binding fragments. In some embodiments, the TCR is an antigen-binding portion thereof, such as a variant of a full-length TCR not containing the transmembrane and / or cytoplasmic region(s) thereof, which may be referred to as a full soluble TCR. In some embodiments, the TCR is a dimeric TCR (dTCR). In some embodiments, the TCR is a single-chain TCR (scTCR), such as a scTCR having a structure as described in PCT patent publication numbers W02003 / 020763, W02004 / 033685, or WO2011 / 044186. In certain embodiments, the TCR is a single-chain TCR fragment comprising an alpha chain variable region linked to a beta chain variable region, such as a scTv. In some embodiments, a scTv is also referred to as a scFv. A single-chain Tv or scTv refers in some aspects TCR fragments that comprise the variable alpha or gamma chain (Va or Vy) and variable beta or delta chain (VP or V5) domains of a TCR, wherein these domains are present in a single polypeptide chain. Generally, the Tv polypeptide further comprises a polypeptide linker between the Va and VP domains or Vy and V5 domains which enables the scTv to form the desired structure for antigen binding. A diabody refers in some aspects to TCR fragments with two antigen-binding sites, which fragments comprise a Va connected to a VP in the same polypeptide chain (Va-VP) or a Vy connected to a V5 in the same polypeptide chain (Vy-V5). By using a linker that is too short to allow pairing between the two domains on the same chain, the domains are forced to pair with the complementary domains ofWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601another chain and create two antigen-binding sites. Exemplary diabodies are described more fully in, for example, EP404097 and WO93111161. Fv refers in some aspects to a TCR fragment which contains a complete peptide-MHC complex recognition and peptide-MHC complex binding site. This region consists of a dimer of one TCRa chain and one TCRP chain or one TCRy chain and one TCR5 chain in tight, non-covalent association. It is in this configuration that the three CDRs of each variable domain interact to define a peptide-MHC complex binding site on the surface of the Va-Vp dimer or Vy-V5 dimer. Collectively, a combination of one or more of the CDRs from each of the Va-Vp chains or Vy-V5 chains confers peptide-MHC complex binding specificity to the TCR. For example, it would be understood that, for example, the CDRa3 and CDRP3 or CDRy3 and CDR53 could be sufficient to confer antigen-binding specificity to a TCR when transferred to Va and VP chains or Vy-V5 chains of a recipient selected TCR or antigen-binding fragment thereof and this combination of CDRs can be tested for binding, affinity, etc. Furthermore, although the two domains of a Tv fragment (Va and VP or Vy and V5 ), are coded for by separate genes, they can be joined using recombinant methods by a synthetic linker that enables them to be made as a single protein chain in which the Va and VP or Vy and V5 chain regions pair to form monovalent molecules (known as single chain Tv (scTv). Such scTvs are also intended to be encompassed within the peptide-MHC complex binding portion of a TCR.
[0066] A “bispecific TCR” refers in some aspects to a TCR that shows specificities to two different peptide-MHC complexes or two different types of peptide-MHC complexes. The terms as used herein specifically include, without limitation, TCRs which show binding specificity for a target peptide-MHC complex and to another peptide-MHC complex that facilitates delivery to a particular tissue. Similarly, multi-specific TCRs have two or more binding specificities. A linear TCR refers in some aspects to a pair of tandem Fd segments (e.g. , V a-Cai-V a-Cai) which form a pair of antigen binding regions. Linear TCRs can be bispecific or monospecific.
[0067] An “antigen-binding domain” refers in some aspects to one or more fragments of a TCR that retain the ability to specifically bind to a peptide-MHC complex. Non-limiting examples of TCR fragments included within such terms include, but are not limited to, (i) a Tab fragment, a monovalent fragment consisting of the Vp, Va, Cp and Ca domains; (ii) a T(ab’)2 fragment, a bivalent fragment containing two Tab fragments linked by a disulfide bridge at the hinge region; (iii) a Td fragment consisting of the Va and Cai domains; (iv) a Tv fragment containing the V and Va domains of a single arm of a TCR, including scTvs, (v) a dAb fragment (Ward et al., (1989) Nature 341:544546), which contains a Va domain; and (vi) an isolated CDR. Included in this definition are TCRs with a single alpha chain or a single beta chain.
[0068] Among the provided TCRs are humanized and human TCRs. A “humanized” TCR is a TCR in which all or substantially all CDR amino acid residues are derived from non-human CDRs and all or substantially all FR amino acid residues are derived from human FRs. A humanized TCR optionally may include at least a portion of a TCR constant region derived from a human TCR. A “humanized form” of a non-human TCR, refers to a variant of the non-human TCR that has undergone humanization, typically to reduce immunogenicity to humans, while retaining the specificity and affinity of the parental non-humanWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601TCR. In some embodiments, some FR residues in a humanized TCR are substituted with corresponding residues from a non-human TCR (e.g., the TCR from which the CDR residues are derived), e.g., to restore or improve TCR specificity or affinity. A “human TCR” is a TCR with an amino acid sequence corresponding to that of a TCR produced by a human or a human cell, or non-human source that utilizes human TCR repertoires or other human TCR-encoding sequences, including human TCR libraries. The term excludes humanized forms of non-human TCRs comprising non-human peptide-MHC complex binding regions, such as those in which all or substantially all CDRs are non-human. Human TCRs may be prepared by administering an immunogen to a transgenic animal that has been modified to produce intact human TCRs or intact TCRs with human variable regions in response to antigenic challenge. Such animals typically contain all or a portion of the human TCR loci, which replace the endogenous TCR loci, or which are present extrachromosomally or integrated randomly into the animal’s chromosomes. In such transgenic animals, the endogenous TCR loci have generally been inactivated. Human TCRs also may be derived from human TCR libraries, including phage display and cell-free libraries, containing TCR-encoding sequences derived from a human repertoire.
[0069] The term “cancer neoantigen” or “neoantigen” or “neoepitope” can refer to antigens that are not encoded in a normal, non-mutated host genome. A neoantigen can relate to an antigen including one or more amino acid modifications compared to the parental antigen. For example, a neoantigen may be a tumor-associated neoantigen, wherein the term “tumor-associated neoantigen” can include a peptide or protein including amino acid modifications due to tumor-specific mutations. In some instances, a neoantigen represents either oncogenic viral proteins or abnormal proteins that arise as a consequence of somatic mutations. For example, a neoantigen can arise by the disruption of cellular mechanisms through the activity of viral proteins. Another example can be an exposure of a carcinogenic compound, which in some cases can lead to a somatic mutation. This somatic mutation can ultimately lead to the formation of a tumor / cancer. A neoantigen can be a class of tumor antigens which arise from tumor-specific changes in proteins. Neoantigens encompass, but are not limited to, tumor antigens which arise from, for example, a substitution in a protein sequence, a frame shift mutation, a fusion polypeptide, an in-frame deletion, an insertion, and expression of an endogenous retroviral polypeptide. A neoepitope can be an epitope that is not present in a reference, such as a non-diseased cell, e.g., a non-cancerous cell or a germline cell, but is found in a diseased cell, e.g., a cancer cell. This includes situations where a corresponding epitope is found in a normal non-diseased cell or a germline cell but, due to one or more mutations in a diseased cell, e.g., a cancer cell, the sequence of the epitope is changed so as to result in the neoepitope.
[0070] An “epitope” refers in some aspects to a portion of an antigen or other macromolecule capable of forming a binding interaction with the variable region binding pocket of a TCR. In some aspects, an epitope refers to a portion of a peptide-MHC complex capable of forming a binding interaction with the variable region binding pocket of a TCR. Such binding interactions can be manifested as an intermolecular contact with one or more amino acid residues of one or more CDRs. Peptide-MHC complex binding can involve, for example, a CDR3, a CDR3 pair, or in some instances, interactions of up to all six CDRs of the Va andWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601VP chains or Vy or V5 chains. An epitope can be a linear peptide sequence (e.g., “continuous”) or can be composed of noncontiguous amino acid sequences (e.g., “conformational” or “discontinuous”). A TCR can recognize one or more amino acid sequences. Therefore, an epitope can define more than one distinct amino acid sequence. In some aspects, a TCR can recognize one or more amino acid sequences or epitopes in the context of an MHC. Epitopes recognized by TCRs can be determined by peptide mapping and sequence analysis techniques well known to one of skill in the art. Binding interactions are manifested as intermolecular contacts with one or more amino acid residues of a CDR. An epitope can refer to an antigenic determinant in a molecule such as an antigen, e.g., to a part in or fragment of the molecule that is recognized by the immune system, for example, that is recognized by a T cell, in particular when presented in the context of MHC molecules. An epitope of a protein such as a tumor antigen can comprise a continuous or discontinuous portion of the protein and can be between 5 and 100, 5 and 50, 8 and 30, or 10 and 25 amino acids in length, for example, the epitope may be 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 2021, 22, 23, 24 or 25 amino acids in length.
[0071] The term “binding” refers to a direct association between two molecules, due to, for example, covalent, electrostatic, hydrophobic, and ionic and / or hydrogen-bond interactions under physiological conditions, and includes interactions such as salt bridges and water bridges, as well as any other conventional means of binding.
[0072] In some embodiments, reference to a TCR with “specific binding” refers to a situation in which a TCR will not show any significant binding to molecules other than the peptide-MHC complex containing the epitope recognized by the TCR. The term is also applicable where for example, an antigen binding domain is specific for a particular epitope which is carried by a number of peptide-MHC complexes, in which case the selected TCR or peptide-MHC complex binding fragment thereof carrying the peptide-MHC complex binding domain will be able to bind to the various peptide-MHC complexes carrying the epitope. The terms “preferentially binds” or “specifically binds” mean that the TCRs or fragments thereof bind to an epitope with greater affinity than it binds unrelated amino acid sequences, and, if cross-reactive to other polypeptides containing the epitope, are not toxic at the levels at which they are formulated for administration to human use. In one aspect, such affinity is at least 1-fold greater, at least 2-fold greater, at least 3 -fold greater, at least 4-fold greater, at least 5 -fold greater, at least 6-fold greater, at least 7-fold greater, at least 8-fold greater, at least 9-fold greater, 10-fold greater, at least 20-fold greater, at least 30-fold greater, at least 40-fold greater, at least 50-fold greater, at least 60-fold greater, at least 70-fold greater, at least 80-fold greater, at least 90-fold greater, at least 100-fold greater, or at least 1000-fold greater than the affinity of the TCR or fragment thereof for unrelated amino acid sequences.
[0073] The term “affinity” refers to a measure of the strength of binding between two members of a binding pair (e.g., a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-binding peptide and a class I or II HLA, or a peptide-HLA complex and a T cell receptor (TCR)). Affinity can be expressed as an equilibrium constant of the reversible binding of two agents and can be expressed as KD,KA, Koff 0v Kon. Kn refers to the dissociation constant between two members of a binding pair and has units of molarity. K refers to the affinity constantWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601between two members of a binding pair is the inverse of the dissociation constant. Affinity may be determined experimentally, for example by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) using commercially available Biacore SPR units. Kott refers to the off-rate constant of two members of a binding pair, (e.g., the off-rate constant of an HLA-binding peptide and a class I or II HLA, or a peptide-HLA complex and a TCR). Konrefers to the on-rate constant of two members of a binding pair, (e.g. , the on-rate constant of an HLA-binding peptide and a class I or II HLA, or a peptide-HLA complex and a TCR). Affinity of a binding protein to a ligand such as affinity of a TCR for an epitope can be, for example, from about 100 nanomolar (nM) to about 0.1 nM, from about 100 nM to about 1 picomolar (pM), or from about 100 nM to about 1 femtomolar (fM). The term “avidity” refers to the resistance of a complex of two or more agents to dissociation after dilution.
[0074] Throughout this disclosure, “binding data” results may be expressed in terms of an “IC50 ” Affinity may also be expressed as the inhibitory concentration 50 (IC50), or the concentration at which 50% of a first member of a binding pair (e.g., a peptide) is displaced. Likewise, In(ICso) refers to the natural log of the IC50. For example, an IC50 may be the concentration of a tested peptide in a binding assay at which 50% inhibition of binding of a labeled reference peptide is observed. Given the conditions in which the assays are run (e.g., limiting HLA protein concentrations and / or labeled reference peptide concentrations), these values can approximate Ab values. Assays for determining binding are well known in the art and are described in detail, for example, in PCT publications WO 94 / 20127 and WO 94 / 03205, and other publications such as Sidney et al., Current Protocols in Immunology 18.3.1 (1998); Sidney, et al., J. Immunol. 154:247 (1995); and Sette, et al., Mol. Immunol. 31:813 (1994). Alternatively, binding can be expressed relative to binding by a reference standard peptide. Binding can also be determined using other assay systems including those using: live cells (e.g., Ceppellini et al., Nature 339:392 (1989); Christnick et al., Nature 352:67 (1991); Busch et al., Int. Immunol. 2:443 (1990); Hill et al., J. Immunol. 147:189 (1991); del Guercio et al., J. Immunol. 154:685 (1995)), cell free systems using detergent lysates (e.g., Cerundolo et al., J. Immunol. 21:2069 (1991)), immobilized purified MHC (e.g., Hill et al., J. Immunol.152, 2890 (1994); Marshall et al., J.

Chem. 268: 15425 (1993)); high flux soluble phase assays (Hammer et al., J. Exp. Med. 180:2353 (1994)), and measurement of class I MHC stabilization or assembly (e.g., Ljunggren et al., Nature 346:476 (1990); Schumacher et al., Cell 62:563 (1990); Townsend et al., Cell 62:285 (1990); Parker et al., J. Immunol. 149:1896 (1992)).
[0075] The terms “major histocompatibility complex” and the abbreviation “MHC” can include MHC class I and MHC class II molecules and relate to a complex of genes which occurs in all vertebrates. MHC proteins or molecules can be important for signaling between lymphocytes and antigen presenting cells or diseased cells in immune reactions, wherein the MHC proteins or molecules bind peptides and present them for recognition by T cell receptors. The proteins encoded by the MHC can be expressed on the surface of cells, and display both self-antigens (peptide fragments from the cell itself) and non-self-antigens (e.g., fragments of invading microorganisms) to a T cell. The MHC region can be divided into three subgroups,WSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601class I, class II, and class III. MHC class I proteins can contain an a-chain and [32-microglobulin (not part of the MHC encoded by chromosome 15). They can present antigen fragments to cytotoxic T cells. MHC class II proteins can contain a- and [3-chains and they can present antigen fragments to T-helper cells. MHC class III region can encode for other immune components, such as complement components and cytokines. The MHC can be both polygenic (there are several MHC class I and MHC class II genes) and polymorphic (there are multiple alleles of each gene).
[0076] The term “haplotype” can refer to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles found on one chromosome and the proteins encoded thereby. Haplotype may also refer to the allele present at any one locus within the MHC. Each class of MHC is represented by several loci: e.g., HLA-A (Human Leukocyte Antigen-A). HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-E, HLA-F, HLA-G, HLA-H, HLA-J, HLA-K, HLA-L, HLA-P and HLA-V for class I and HLA-DRA, HLA-DRB1-9, HLA-DQA1, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DPA1, HLA-DPB1, HLA-DPB2, HLA-DMA, HLA-DMB, HLA-DOA, and HLA-DOB for class II.

The sequence of nucleotides may be interrupted by non-nucleotide components. A polynucleotide may be further modified after polymerization, such as by conjugation with a labeling component.
[0078] “Complementarity” can refer to the ability of a nucleic acid to form hydrogen bond(s) with another nucleic acid sequence by either traditional Watson-Crick or other non-traditional types. A percent complementarity can indicate the percentage of residues in a nucleic acid molecule which can form hydrogen bonds (e.g., Watson-Crick base pairing) with a second nucleic acid sequence (e.g., 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 out of 10 being 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% complementary, respectively). “Perfectly complementary” can mean that all the contiguous residues of a nucleic acid sequence will hydrogen bond with the same number of contiguous residues in a second nucleic acid sequence. “Substantially complementary” refers to a degree of complementarity that is at least 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100% over a region of 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or more nucleotides, or can refer to two nucleic acids that hybridize under stringent conditions. Sequence identity, such as for the purpose of assessing percent complementarity, may be measured by any suitable alignment algorithm, including but not limited to the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm (e.g., the EMBOSS Needle aligner available at www.ebi.ac.uk / Tools / psa / emboss_needle / nucleotide.html, optionally with default settings), the BLAST algorithm (see e.g., the BLAST alignment tool available at blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov / Blast.cgi, optionally with default settings), or the Smith-Waterman algorithm. Optimal alignment may be assessed using any suitable parameters of a chosen algorithm, including default parameters.
[0079] The terms “polypeptide” and “protein” are used interchangeably to refer to a polymer of amino acid residues, and are not limited to a minimum length. Lor example, a polypeptide can comprise at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900, or 1000 peptides or amino acids. Examples of polypeptides include, but are not limited to, amino acid chains, proteins, peptides, hormones, polypeptide saccharides, lipids, glycolipids, phospholipids, antibodies, enzymes, kinases, receptors, transcription factors, and ligands. Polypeptides, including the provided TCRs and TCR chains and other peptides, e.g., linkers and binding peptides, may include amino acid residues including natural and / or non-natural amino acid residues. The terms also include post-expression modifications of the polypeptide, for example, glycosylation, sialylation, acetylation, phosphorylation, and the like. In some aspects, the polypeptides may contain modifications with respect to a native or natural sequence, as long as the protein maintains the desiredWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601activity. These modifications may be deliberate, as through site-directed mutagenesis, or may be accidental, such as through mutations of hosts which produce the proteins or errors due to PCR amplification.
[0080] As used herein, the twenty conventional amino acids and their abbreviations known to one skilled in the art follow conventional usage. Stereoisomers (e.g., D-amino acids) of the twenty conventional amino acids, unnatural amino acids such as a-, a-disubstituted amino acids, N-alkyl amino acids, lactic acid, and other unconventional amino acids may also be suitable components for polypeptides of the present invention. Examples of unconventional amino acids include: 4-hydroxyproline, y-carboxyglutamate, 8-N,N,N-trimethyllysine, e-N-acetyllysine, O-phosphoserine, N-acetylserine, N-formylmethionine, 3-methylhistidine, 5 -hydroxylysine, o-N-methylarginine, and other similar amino acids and imino acids (e.g., 4-hydroxyproline). In the polypeptide notation used herein, the left hand direction is the amino terminal direction and the right hand direction is the carboxy-terminal direction, in accordance with standard usage and convention. Percent (%) sequence identity with respect to a reference polypeptide sequence (or nucleic acid sequence) is the percentage of amino acid residues (or nucleotides in case of nucleic acid sequence) in a candidate sequence that are identical with the amino acid residues (or nucleotides) in the reference polypeptide sequence (or nucleic acid sequence), after aligning the sequences and introducing gaps, if necessary, to achieve the maximum percent sequence identity, and not considering any conservative substitutions as part of the sequence identity. Alignment for purposes of determining percent amino acid sequence identity can be achieved in various ways that are within the skill in the art, for instance, using publicly available computer software such as BLAST, BLAST-2, ALIGN or Megalign (DNASTAR) software. Those skilled in the art can determine appropriate parameters for aligning sequences, including any algorithms needed to achieve maximal alignment over the full length of the sequences being compared. Lor purposes herein, however, % amino acid sequence identity values are generated using the sequence comparison computer program ALIGN-2. The ALIGN-2 sequence comparison computer program was authored by Genentech, Inc., and the source code has been filed with user documentation in the U.S. Copyright Office, Washington D.C., 20559, where it is registered under U.S. Copyright Registration No. TXU510087. The ALIGN-2 program is publicly available from Genentech, Inc., South San Lrancisco, Calif., or may be compiled from the source code. The ALIGN-2 program should be compiled for use on a UNIX operating system, including digital UNIX V4.0D. All sequence comparison parameters are set by the ALIGN-2 program and do not vary. In situations where ALIGN-2 is employed for amino acid sequence comparisons, the % amino acid sequence identity of a given amino acid sequence A to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B (which can alternatively be phrased as a given amino acid sequence A that has or comprises a certain % amino acid sequence identity to, with, or against a given amino acid sequence B) is calculated as follows: 100 times the fraction X / Y, where X is the number of amino acid residues scored as identical matches by the sequence alignment program ALIGN-2 in that program's alignment of A and B, and where Y is the total number of amino acid residues in B. It will be appreciated that where the length of amino acid sequence A is not equal to the length of amino acid sequence B, the % amino acid sequence identity of A to B will not equal the % amino acid sequence identity of B to A. Unless specificallyWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601stated otherwise, all % amino acid sequence identity values used herein are obtained as described in the immediately preceding paragraph using the ALIGN-2 computer program.
[0081] A “germline sequence” refers to a genetic sequence from the haploid gametes and those diploid cells from which they are formed. Germline DNA contains multiple gene segments that encode a single TCRa or TCR[3 chain, or a single TCRy or TCR5 chain. These gene segments are carried in the germ cells but cannot be transcribed and translated until they are arranged into functional genes. During T cell differentiation in the bone marrow, these gene segments are randomly shuffled by a dynamic genetic system capable of generating more than 108specificities.
[0082] Inhibition, “treatment” and “treating” are used interchangeably and refer to, for example, stasis of symptoms, prolongation of survival, partial or full amelioration of symptoms, and partial or full eradication of a condition, disease or disorder associated with excess levels of protein or correlated with protein activity. For example, treatment of cancer includes, but is not limited to, stasis, partial or total elimination of a cancerous growth or tumor. Treatment or partial elimination includes, for example, a fold reduction in growth or tumor size and / or volume such as about 2-fold, about 3-fold, about 4-fold, about 5-fold, about 10-fold, about 20-fold, about 50-fold, or any fold reduction in between. Similarly, treatment or partial elimination can include a percent reduction in growth or tumor size and / or volume of about 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 95% or any percentage reduction in between.

In certain aspects, a subject refers to a single organism (e.g., human). In certain aspects, or a group of individuals composing a small cohort having either a common immune factor to study and / or disease, and / or a cohort of individuals without the disease (e.g., negative / normal control) are provided. A subject from whom samples are obtained can either be inflicted with a disease and / or disorder (e.g., one or more allergies, infections, cancers or autoimmune disorders or the like) and can be compared against a negative control subject which is not affected by the disease.
[0084] A “kit” refers to a delivery system for delivering materials or reagents for carrying out a method disclosed herein. In some embodiments, kits include systems that allow for the storage, transport, or delivery of reaction reagents (e.g., probes, enzymes, etc. in the appropriate containers) and / or supporting materials (e.g. , buffers, written instructions for performing the assay etc.) from one location to another. For example, kits include one or more enclosures (e.g., boxes) containing the relevant reaction reagents and / or supporting materials. Such contents may be delivered to the intended recipient together or separately. For example, a first container may contain an enzyme for use in an assay, while a second container contains aWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601plurality of primers. A packaging material refers to a physical structure housing the components of the kit. The packaging material can maintain the components sterilely and can be made of material commonly used for such purposes (e.g., paper, corrugated fiber, glass, plastic, foil, ampules, etc.). The label or packaging insert can include appropriate written instructions. Kits, therefore, can additionally include labels or instructions for using the kit components in any method of the invention. A kit can include a compound in a pack, or dispenser together with instructions for administering the compound in a method described herein.
[0085] The term “resistance mutation” refers to a mutation in a gene that allows the gene or the host cell containing the gene to become resistant to treatment with a drug. For example, BTK C481S mutation is a resistance mutation which can confer ibrutinib resistance.II. Overview

[0089] Also provided herein in an additional aspect is a method of treating a subject with a disease or condition, comprising administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the subject has cancer.III. T Cell Receptors (TCRs)
[0090] The ability of T cells to recognize antigens associated with various cancers or infectious organisms is conferred by its TCR, which is made up of both an alpha (a) chain and a beta ( ) chain or a gamma (y) and a delta (5) chain. The proteins which make up these chains are encoded by DNA, which employs a unique mechanism for generating the tremendous diversity of the TCR. This multi-subunit immune recognition receptor associates with the CD3 complex and binds peptides presented by the MHC class I and II proteins on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs). Binding of a TCR to the antigenic peptide on the APC is a central event in T cell activation, which occurs at an immunological synapse at the point of contact between the T cell and the APC.WSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601
[0091] Each TCR contains variable complementarity determining regions (CDRs), as well as framework regions (FRs) and a constant region. The constant region can comprise an a chain constant and a [3 chain constant. The a chain constant and the [3 chain constant can be derived from mouse. For example, mouse TCR a chain constant can be Uniprot accession P01849, and mouse [3 chain constant can be Uniprot accession P01852 or P01851. In some cases, the a chain constant and the [3 chain constant can be derived from human. For example, human TCR a chain constant can be Uniprot accession P01848, and human [3 chain constant can be Uniprot accession P01850 or A0A5B9. The amino acid sequence of the third complementarity-determining region (CDR3) loops of the a and [3 chain variable domains largely determines the sequence diversity of a[3 T cells arising from recombination between variable (V[3), diversity (D[3), and joining (J[3) gene segments in the [3 chain locus, and between analogous Va and Ja gene segments in the a chain locus, respectively. The existence of multiple such gene segments in the TCR a and [3 chain loci allows for a large number of distinct CDR3 sequences to be encoded. Independent addition and deletion of nucleotides at the V[3-D[3, D[3-J[3, and Va-Ja junctions during the process of TCR gene rearrangement further increases CDR3 sequence diversity. In this respect, immunocompetence is reflected in the diversity of TCRs. The y5 TCR is distinctive from the a[3 TCR in that it encodes a receptor that interacts closely with the innate immune system. TCRyS, is expressed early in development, has specialized anatomical distribution, has unique pathogen and small-molecule specificities, and has a broad spectrum of innate and adaptive cellular interactions. Early in ontogeny, as the restricted subsets of TCRyS cells populate various tissues prenatally, a biased pattern of TCRy V and J segment expression is established.
[0092] In some embodiments, the TCR disclosed herein is a soluble TCR. The TCR may not comprise a constant domain. The TCR may be a single chain soluble TCR. The single chain soluble TCR can comprise the TCR alpha variable domain linked to the TCR beta variable domain via a linker. The TCR may be a full-length TCR. The TCR may be the antigen-binding fragment of a full-length TCR. In some embodiments, the TCR disclosed herein is a transmembrane protein.
[0093] The TCRs provided herein target may be engineered TCRs, for example, chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). CARs can be composed of three regions: an ectodomain, a transmembrane domain and an endodomain.
[0094] An ectodomain can be the region of the receptor that is exposed to the extracellular fluid and can consist of an antigen recognition region. In some embodiments, an ectodomain further comprises and a spacer. In some embodiments, an ectodomain further comprises and a signal peptide. A signal peptide can direct the nascent protein into the endoplasmic reticulum. A signal protein in a CAR may be a single -chain variable fragment (scFv). A fusion protein may be a protein that is formed by merging two or more genes that code originally for different proteins but when they are translated in the cell, the translation produces one or more polypeptides with functional properties derived for each of the original genes. A scFv is a chimeric protein made up of a light chain domain and heavy chain variable domain connected with a short linker peptide. The linker may comprise hydrophilic residues with stretches of glycine and / or serine residues. The linker may comprise stretches of glutamate and lysine residues, which can improve solubility.WSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601
[0095] A transmembrane domain can be a hydrophobic domain that spans the membrane. In some embodiments, a transmembrane domain comprises an alpha-helical domain. A transmembrane domain may be functional for the stability of the receptor as a whole. In some embodiments, a transmembrane domain comprises a transmembrane domain from the most membrane proximal component of an endodomain. In some embodiments, a transmembrane domain comprises a CD3-zeta transmembrane domain. In some embodiments, a transmembrane domain allows for incorporation of an artificial TCR into a native TCR complex. In some embodiments, a transmembrane domain comprises a CD28 transmembrane domain.
[0096] An endodomain can be a functional intracellular portion of a receptor, such as a TCR or CAR. After antigen recognition, receptors cluster and a signal may be transmitted to the cell.

In various embodiments, the TCR binds to an MHCRAS peptide complex, wherein the human MHC is encoded by an HLA- CO 1:02 allele and wherein the RAS peptide comprises a sequence of aVgvgksal (SEQ ID NO: 72).
[0154] In some embodiments, one TCR as disclosed herein, exhibits a specific binding affinity to an epitope peptide containing a point mutation found in cancer when the epitope peptide is in complex with an MHC encoded by the specific allele; and additionally the TCR may exhibit a different binding affinity to another epitope peptide containing a different point mutation of the same cancer protein, when the epitope peptide is in complex with an MHC encoded by the specific allele, but do not exhibit binding affinity to the WT peptide which does not contain any mutation.WSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601IV. T cells
[0155] Provided herein is a cell comprising a recombinant nucleic acid encoding a TCR disclosed herein. Also provided herein is a cell comprising a TCR encoded by a recombinant nucleic acid disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the cell is isolated from a subject having a RAS mutation. In some embodiments, the cell is a T cell. In some embodiments, the cell is a CD4+ T cell. In some embodiments, the cell is a CD8+ T cell.
[0156] T cells belong to a group of white blood cells known as lymphocytes, and play a central role in cell-mediated immunity. T cells include CD4+T cells (helper T cells) and CD8+T cells (cytotoxic T cells). CD4+T cells can assist other white blood cells in immunologic processes, including maturation of B-cells and activation of cytotoxic T cells and macrophages. CD4+T cells are activated when presented with peptide antigens by MHC class II molecules expressed on the surface of antigen presenting cells (APCs). Once activated, the T cells can divide rapidly and secrete cytokines that regulate the active immune response. CD8+T cells can destroy virally infected cells and tumor cells, and can also be implicated in transplant rejection. CD8+T cells can recognize their targets by binding to antigen associated with MHC class I, which is present on the surface of nearly every cell of the body. Most T cells have a T cell receptor (TCR). The ability of T cells to recognize antigens associated with various cancers or infectious organisms is conferred by its TCR, which is made up of both an alpha (a) chain and a beta (P) chain or a gamma (y) and a delta (5) chain. The proteins which make up these chains are encoded by DNA, which employs a unique mechanism for generating the diversity of the TCR. This multi-subunit immune recognition receptor can associate with the CD3 complex and bind peptides presented by the MHC class I and II proteins on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs). The first signal in activation of T cells can be provided by binding of the T cell receptor to a short peptide presented by the MHC on another cell. This ensures that only a T cell with a TCR specific to that peptide is activated. The partner cell is usually an antigen presenting cell such as a professional antigen presenting cell, usually a dendritic cell in the case of naive responses, although B-cells and macrophages can be important APCs. Binding of a TCR to the antigenic peptide on the APC can be a central event in T cell activation, which occurs at an immunological synapse at the point of contact between the T cell and the APC.
[0157] T cells can be prepared according to methods known in the art. T cells can be an enriched T cell preparation, an APC-depleted cell preparation, or a substantially purified T cell preparation. T cells can be a mixed T cell population or a purified T cell subset. T cells can be an enriched T cell preparation containing a number or percentage of T cells that is increased with respect to an isolated population of T cells.
[0158] T cells, or a subset of T cells, can be obtained from various lymphoid tissues. T cells can be obtained from a number of sources, including peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), bone marrow, thymus, tissue biopsy, tumor, lymph node tissue, gut associated lymphoid tissue, mucosa associated lymphoid tissue, spleen tissue, lymphoid tissue, and tumors. The term “peripheral blood lymphocytes” (PBL) and its grammatical equivalents as used herein can refer to lymphocytes that circulate in the bloodWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601(e.g., peripheral blood). Peripheral blood lymphocytes can refer to lymphocytes that are not localized to organs. Peripheral blood lymphocytes can comprise T cells, NK cells, B cell, or any combinations thereof.
[0159] The method can comprise isolating T cells from a subject. The method can comprise obtaining T cells isolated from a subject. T cells can be obtained from T cell lines. T cells can be obtained from autologous sources. T cells can be obtained from allogeneic sources. T cells may also be obtained from a xenogeneic source, for example, from mouse, rat, non-human primate, and pig.
[0160] T cells can be an APC-depleted cell preparation. T cells can be substantially free of APCs. For example, T cells can comprise T cells separated from over 75% of APCs. In an exemplary embodiment, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) can be obtained from blood, e.g., in heparinized vials. PBMCs can be separated from red blood cells by centrifugation and PBMCs recovered from the interface. The recovered PBMCs optionally can be washed (e.g., with PBS).
[0161] T cell purification can be achieved, for example, by positive or negative selection including, but not limited to, the use of antibodies directed to CD2, CD3, CD4, CD5, CD8, CD14, CD19, and / or MHC class II molecules. A specific T cell subset, such as CD28+, CD4+, CD8+, CD45RA+, and / or CD45RO+T cells, can be isolated by positive or negative selection techniques. For example, CD3+, CD28+T cells can be positively selected using CD3 / CD28 conjugated magnetic beads. In one aspect of the present invention, enrichment of a T cell population by negative selection can be accomplished with a combination of antibodies directed to surface markers unique to the negatively selected cells.
[0162] For example, a T cell sample can comprise cells from a subject’s circulating blood and can be obtained by apheresis or leukapheresis. A T cell sample may contain lymphocytes, including T cells, monocytes, granulocytes, B cells, other nucleated white blood cells, red blood cells, and / or platelets. Undesirable components of the T cell sample can be removed and the remaining T cells can be suspended in culture media. For example, cells can be washed to remove the plasma fraction. For example, T cells can be isolated from peripheral blood lymphocytes by lysing the red blood cells and by centrifugation through a PERCOLL™ gradient.
[0163] In some embodiments, a T cell comprises at least one T cell receptor (TCR) comprising a TCR alpha chain construct and / or TCR beta chain construct capable of specifically binding to an epitope from RAS in complex with a human MHC. In some embodiments, a host cell comprises at least one TCR disclosed herein, wherein the host cell is a CD4+ T cell. In some embodiments, the host cell is a CD8+ T cell. In some embodiments, the host cell is an autologous cell. In some embodiments, the host cell is an allogeneic cell. In some embodiments, the host cell is a human cell. In some other cases, a host cell may be natural killer (NK) cell, a B cell, or an immortalized cell line.
[0164] In some embodiments, T cells can be obtained by positive selection and / or negative selection. In positive selection, an affinity agent (such as an antibody, an antibody fragment, and aptamer) can be used to bind a cell surface marker expressed on the population of cells, for example, CD3 for T cells. Using the affinity agent, the T cells can be labeled. The labeled T cells can then be enriched using various methods that are well-known in the art. Non-limiting examples of those methods include fluorescent-activated cellWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601sorting (FACS) and (para)magnetic particle -based cell separation (e.g., MACS cell separation kits from Miltenyi Biotec).
[0165] In negative selection, affinity agents can be used to bind cell surface markers expressed on blood cells other than the desired population. For example, when attempting to isolate T cells, a cocktail of affinity agents can be used to label B cells, NK cells, monocytes, platelets, dendritic cells, granulocytes, and erythrocytes. The labeled cells can then be depleted, leaving the T cells enriched. The exemplary methods to deplete labeled cells include FACS and (para)magnetic particle-based cell separation.
[0166] In addition to labeling-based isolation, special growth condition may be used to promote the growth of one particular cell population. For example, the special growth condition can be obtained using special cytokines or growth factors. For another example, in culture media containing phytohemagglutinin (PHA), IL-2, and / or IL- 15, T cells may preferentially proliferate.
[0167] In some situations, non-fimctional markers may be used to isolate T cells since binding of functional markers such as binding of CD3 by anti-CD3 antibody (alone or conjugated to magnetic particles) may trigger unwanted signaling events on T cells. Therefore, a cocktail of antibodies against CD14, CD15, CD16, CD19, CD34, CD36, CD56, CD123, and CD235a (glycophorin A) can be used to isolate T cells.
[0168] Detailed protocol can be found in published literatures (e.g., see Lefort et al., J Vis Exp. 2010; (40): 2017) which are incorporated by reference herein. T cell isolation kits can be obtained from, for example, STEMCELL Technologies, Thermofisher, and Miltenyi Biotec.
[0169] The T cell described herein may be an allogeneic T cell.
[0170] In some embodiments, the T cell may be a genetically-modified cell comprising in its genome a modified human T cell receptor (TCR) alpha chain gene and / or a modified human TCR beta chain gene, wherein the cell has reduced cell-surface expression of the endogenous TCR.
[0171] Gene-editing nucleases may be employed in order to disrupt components of the TCR. The TCR alpha chain (TCRa) is encoded by a single TRAC gene and pairs with the TCR beta chain (TCR ) encoded by two TCRB genes. Since the TCR a / p dimer can produce a fully functioning TCR complex, disrupting TCRa and / or TCR function may reduce (even eliminate) endogenous TCR expression.
[0172] Various methods may be used to disrupt endogenous TCRa or TCR genes. For example, four classes of gene editing proteins exist that share a common mode of action in binding a user defined sequence of DNA and mediating a double stranded DNA break (DSB). Zinc finger nucleases (ZFN) are heterodimeric arrays that co-localize at a target DNA site. ZFNs include individual finger subunits that bind DNA and are tethered to the Fokl nuclease domain that cleaves DNA. Transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALEN) include repeating units that bind DNA by virtue of a hypervariable two amino acid sequence (repeat variable diresidue; RVD) that governs DNA base recognition. Similar to ZFNS, TALENs function as dimeric proteins that are fused to the Fokl endonuclease domain for DSB generation. Meganucleases (MN) are monomeric proteins with innate nuclease activity that are derived from bacterial homing endonucleases and engineered for a unique target site. The clustered regularly interspaced shortWSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and associated Cas9 nuclease platform involves a small guide RNA (gRNA) transcript that contacts a target DNA sequence via Watson-Crick base pairing and the Cas9 nuclease that cleaves the DNA.
[0173] In some embodiments, introducing the genome -editing nuclease into the T cell includes introducing into the T cell a polynucleotide that encodes the genome-editing nuclease.
[0174] In some embodiments, introducing the genome -editing nuclease into the T cell includes introducing into the T cell a Cas9 polypeptide. In some embodiments, the genome-editing nuclease includes a TALEN nuclease, a CRISPR / Cas9 nuclease, or a megaTAL nuclease.
[0175] In some embodiments, the CRISPR / Cas9 nuclease is derived from either Streptococcus pyogenes or Staphylococcus aureus. In some of these embodiments, the CRISPR / Cas9 nuclease includes a nuclease-resistant gRNA such as, for example, at least one 2'-OMe-phosphorothioate modified base, at least one 2'-O-methyl modified base, or at least one 2'-O-methyl 3' thioPACE modified base.
[0176] In some embodiments, the TALEN nuclease or the megaTAL nuclease is encoded by an RNA that has an exogenous polyadenylation signal.
[0177] In some embodiments, the method described herein may further include culturing the T cell under conditions effective for expanding the population of genome-modified T cells.
[0178] In some embodiments, disrupting expression of TCRa and / or TCR[3 further disrupts assembly of TCRa and TCR[3. In some embodiments, disrupting expression of TCRa further disrupts formation of a complex between TCR and CD3. In some embodiments, disrupting expression of TCRa involves further disrupting assembly of TCRa and TCR[3.
[0179] In some embodiments, a genetically-modified T cell comprises a disrupted TCR alpha chain and / or beta chain and an inactivated gene encoding immune checkpoint protein such as PD1 and CTLA-4. This may be made possible by gene inactivation using specific TALE-nucleases directed against TCRalpha or TCRbeta coupled with inactivation of genes encoding immune checkpoint protein such as PD1 and CTLA-4.
[0180] In some embodiments, the genetic modification relies on the inactivation of one gene, or two genes selected from the group consisting of PD1, CTLA-4, LAG3, Tim3, BTLA, BY55, TIGIT, B7H5, LAIR1 , SIGLEC 10, 2B4, TCR alpha and TCR beta. In some embodiments, the genetic modification relies on the inactivation of two genes selected from the group consisting of PD 1 and TCR alpha, PD 1 and TCR beta, CTLA-4 and TCR alpha, CTLA-4 and TCR beta, LAG 3 and TCR alpha, LAG 3 and TCR beta, Tim3 and TCR alpha, Tim3 and TCR beta, BTLA and TCR alpha, BTLA and TCR beta, BY55 and TCR alpha, BY55 and TCR beta, TIGIT and TCR alpha, TIGIT and TCR beta, B7H5 and TCR alpha, B7H5 and TCR beta, LAIR1 and TCRalpha, LAIR1 and TCRbeta, SIGLEC 10 and TCRalpha, SIGLEC 10 and TCRbeta, 2B4 and TCR alpha, 2B4 and TCR beta. In some embodiments, the genetic modification relies on the inactivation of more than two genes. The genetic modification may be operated ex-vivo.V.

Carriers useful according to the present disclosure include, for example, lipid-containing carriers such as cationic lipids, liposomes, in particular cationic liposomes, and micelles, and nanoparticles. Cationic lipids may form complexes with negatively charged nucleic acids. Any cationic lipid may be used according to the present disclosure.
[0184] In various embodiments, a nucleic acid encoding a TCR disclosed herein is operably linked to a promoter. Furthermore, the present disclosure provides a vector, e.g., a plasmid, shuttle vector, phagemide, cosmid, expression vector, retroviral vector, adenoviral vector, or particle and / or vector to be used in gene therapy, which comprises one or more of the nucleic acids as disclosed above. A “vector” is a nucleic acid molecule that is capable of transporting another nucleic acid. The vector comprises the nucleic acid insert, which encodes the polypeptide or protein desired for expression in a cell, such as a host cell. For the purposes of the disclosure, an insert may be a nucleic acid encoding a TCR; an alpha chain or a beta chain or both of a TCR. The term “incorporating” a nucleic acid sequence in a vector may mean preparing a suitable expression vector with an insert comprising said nucleic acid sequence. An “expression vector” is a vector that can direct the expression of a protein encoded by one or more genes carried by the vector when it is present in the appropriate environment. “Retroviruses” are viruses having an RNA genome. “Gammaretrovirus” refers to a genus of the retroviridae family. Exemplary gammaretroviruses include, but are not limited to, mouse stem cell virus, murine leukemia virus, feline leukemia virus, feline sarcoma virus, and avian reticuloendotheliosis viruses. “Lentivirus” refers to a genus of retroviruses that are capable of infecting dividing and non-dividing cells.

A vector that encodes a core virus is also known as a “viral vector.” There are a large number of available viral vectors that are suitable for use with the invention, including those identified for human gene therapy applications, such as those described by Pfeifer and Verma (Pfeifer, A. and I. M. Verma.2001. Ann. Rev. Genomics Hum. Genet. 2: 177-211). Suitable viral vectors include vectors based on RNA viruses, such as retrovirus-derived vectors, e.g., Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV)-derived vectors, and include more complex retrovirus-derived vectors, e.g., lentivirus-derived vectors.

Ther. 18:1748-57; Verhoeyen et al., 2009, Methods Mol. Biol. 506:97-114. Retroviral and lentiviral vector constructs and expression systems are also commercially available. In some embodiments, a viral vector is used to introduce the non-endogenous nucleic acid sequence encoding TCRa chain specific for the peptide antigen into the hematopoietic progenitor cells. The viral vector may be a retroviral vector or a lentiviral vector. The viral vector may also include a nucleic acid sequence encoding a marker for transduction. Transduction markers for viral vectors are known in the art and include selection markers, which may confer drug resistance, or detectable markers, such as fluorescent markers or cell surface proteins that can be detected by methods such as flow cytometry. Where the viral vector genome comprises more than one nucleic acid sequence to be expressed in the host cell as separate transcripts, the viral vector may also comprise additional sequence between the two (or more) transcripts allowing bicistronic or multicistronic expression. Examples of such sequences used in viral vectors include internal ribosome entry sites (IRES), furin cleavage sites, viral 2A peptide. Other vectors also can be used for polynucleotide delivery including DNA viral vectors, including, for example adenovirus-based vectors and adeno-associated virus (AAV)-based vectors; vectors derived from herpes simplex viruses (HSVs), including amplicon vectors, replication-defective HSV and attenuated HSV (Krisky et al., 1998, Gene Ther. 5: 1517-30).

[0216] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can comprise carriers such as those well known in the art, e.g., thyroglobulin, albumins such as human serum albumin, tetanus toxoid, polyamino acid residues such as poly L-lysine, poly L-glutamic acid, influenza virus proteins, hepatitis B virus core protein, and the like.
[0217] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can be modified by terminal-NH2 acylation, e.g., by alkanoyl (C1-C20) or thioglycolyl acetylation, terminal-carboxyl amidation, e.g., ammonia, methylamine, etc. In some embodiments, these modifications can provide sites for linking to a support or other molecule.
[0218] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can contain modifications such as but not limited to glycosylation, side chain oxidation, biotinylation, phosphorylation, addition of a surface active material, e.g., a lipid, or can be chemically modified, e.g., acetylation, etc. Moreover, bonds in the peptide can be other than peptide bonds, e.g., covalent bonds, ester or ether bonds, disulfide bonds, hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, etc.
[0219] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can contain substitutions to modify a physical property (e.g., stability or solubility) of the resulting peptide. For example, neoantigenic peptides can be modified by the substitution of a cysteine (C) with a-amino butyric acid (“B”). Due to its chemical nature, cysteine has the propensity to form disulfide bridges and sufficiently alter the peptide structurally so as to reduce binding capacity. Substituting a-amino butyric acid for C not only alleviates this problem, but actually improves binding and cross-binding capability in certain instances. Substitution of cysteine with a-amino butyric acid can occur at any residue of a neoantigenic peptide, e.g., at either anchor or non-anchor positions of an epitope or analog within a peptide, or at other positions of a peptide.
[0220] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can comprise amino acid mimetics or unnatural amino acid residues, e.g. D- or L-naphylalanine; D- or L-phenylglycine; D- or L-2-thieneylalanine; D- or L-l, -2, 3-, or 4-pyreneylalanine; D- or L-3 thieneylalanine; D- or L-(2-pyridinyl)-alanine; D- or L-(3-pyridinyl)-alanine; D- or L-(2-pyrazinyl)-alanine; D- or L-(4-isopropyl)-phenylglycine; D-(trifluoromethyl)-phenylglycine; D-(trifluoro-methyl)-phenylalanine; D-.rho. -fluorophenylalanine; D-or L-.rho.-biphenyl-phenylalanine; D- or L-.rho. -methoxybiphenylphenylalanine; D- or L-2-indole(allyl)alanines; and, D- or L-alkylalanines, where the alkyl group can be a substituted or unsubstituted methyl, ethyl, propyl, hexyl, butyl, pentyl, isopropyl, iso-butyl, sec-isotyl, iso-pentyl, or a non-acidic amino acid residues. Aromatic rings of a non-natural amino acid include, e.g., thiazolyl, thiophenyl, pyrazolyl, benzimidazolyl, naphthyl, furanyl, pyrrolyl, and pyridyl aromatic rings. Modified peptides that have various amino acid mimetics or unnatural amino acid residues are particularly useful, as they tend to manifest increased stability in vivo. Such peptides can also possess improved shelf-life or manufacturing properties.WSGR Docket No. 50401-811.601
[0221] Peptide stability can be assayed in a number of ways. For instance, peptidases and various biological media, such as human plasma and serum, have been used to test stability. See, e.g., Verhoef, et al., Eur. J. Drug Metab. Pharmacokinetics 11:291 (1986). Half-life of the peptides described herein is conveniently determined using a 25% human serum (v / v) assay. The protocol is as follows: pooled human serum (Type AB, non-heat inactivated) is dilapidated by centrifugation before use. The serum is then diluted to 25 % with RPMI- 1640 or another suitable tissue culture medium . At predetermined time intervals, a small amount of reaction solution is removed and added to either 6% aqueous trichloroacetic acid (TCA) or ethanol. The cloudy reaction sample is cooled (4oC) for 15 minutes and then spun to pellet the precipitated serum proteins. The presence of the peptides is then determined by reversed-phase HPLC using stability-specific chromatography conditions.
[0222] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can be prepared synthetically, by recombinant DNA technology or chemical synthesis, or can be isolated from natural sources such as native tumors or pathogenic organisms. Epitopes can be synthesized individually or joined directly or indirectly in a peptide. Although a neoantigenic peptide described herein will be substantially free of other naturally occurring host cell proteins and fragments thereof, in some embodiments, the peptide can be synthetically conjugated to be joined to native fragments or particles.
[0223] In some embodiments, a neoantigenic peptide described herein can be prepared in a wide variety of ways. In some embodiments, the peptides can be synthesized in solution or on a solid support according to conventional techniques. Various automatic synthesizers are commercially available and can be used according to known protocols. (See, for example, Stewart & Young, SOLID PHASE PEPTIDE SYNTHESIS, 2D. ED., Pierce Chemical Co., 1984). Further, individual peptides can be joined using chemical ligation to produce larger peptides that are still within the bounds of the invention.
[0224] Alternatively, recombinant DNA technology can be employed wherein a nucleotide sequence which encodes a peptide inserted into an expression vector, transformed, or transfected into an appropriate host cell and cultivated under conditions suitable for expression. These procedures are generally known in the art, as described generally in Sambrook et al., MOLECULAR CLONING, A LABORATORY MANUAL, Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. (1989). Thus, recombinant peptides, which comprise or consist of one or more epitopes described herein, can be used to present the appropriate T cell epitope.VII. Pharmaceutical Compositions
