Using the extracellular domain of the human NKG2D, a stimulatory receptor expressed by V?9V?2 T cells, we constructed NKG2D ligand-specific chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). We adopted a non-viral CAR approach via mRNA electroporation to modify V?9V?2 T cells and demonstrated that, upon interaction with the NKG2D ligand-positive cancer cells, the CARs substantially enhanced the cytotoxic activity of the modified cells toward multiple cultured solid tumor cell lines, including those resistant to Zometa treatment. Repeated doses of the CAR-expressing cells resulted in tumor regression in mice with established tumors, extending median survival time by up to 132% as compared to the PBS control group. The findings suggest clinical potential for RNA CAR-modified V?9V?2 T cells to treat a wide variety of NKG2D ligand-expressing cancers. � 2020 The AuthorsNKG2Dz-expressing V?9V?2 CAR-T cells were generated through mRNA electroporation and demonstrated enhanced anti-tumor activity against NKG2D ligand-positive cancer cells, including those resistant to Zometa treatment. While a transient mRNA expression allows management of on-target off-tumor effects, repeated infusions of mRNA CAR-T cells greatly enhanced survival of tumor-bearing mice. � 2020 The Authors | Source Title: | Molecular Therapy - Oncolytics | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/197705 | ISSN: | 23727705 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.omto.2020.04.013 | Rights: | Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International |
