TM4SF1-CAR/EpCAM-CAR-expressing Autologous T Cells - CISMeF
TM4SF1-CAR/EpCAM-CAR-expressing Autologous T CellsNCIt concept
Preferred Label : TM4SF1-CAR/EpCAM-CAR-expressing Autologous T Cells;
NCIt synonyms : TM4SF1-CAR Autologous T-cells/EpCAM-CAR Autologous T-cells; Autologous CART-TM4SF1 Cells/CART-EpCAM Cells; Autologous TM4SF1-targeting CAR T-cells and EpCAM-targeting CAR T-cells;
NCIt definition : A mixed preparation of allogeneic T-lymphocytes that have been genetically modified
to express either a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specific for the antigen transmembrane
4 L six family member 1 (TM4SF1) (CART-TM4SF1) or a CAR specific for epithelial cell
adhesion molecule (EpCAM) (CART-EpCAM), with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic
activities. Upon administration of the TM4SF1-CAR/EpCAM-CAR-expressing autologous
T cells, the TM4SF1-CAR-expressing autologous T-cells specifically recognize and bind
to TM4SF1-expressing tumor cells and the EpCAM-CAR-expressing autologous T-cells specifically
recognize and bind to EpCAM-expressing tumor cells, resulting in tumor cell lysis.
TM4SF1 and EpCAM are expressed by a variety of tumor cells.;
