NCIt synonyms : Autologous Anti-CLL-1-CAR T-cells BG1805; Autologous Anti-CLL1 CAR-T Cells BG1805; Autologous Anti-CLL1 CAR T Cells BG1805;
NCIt definition : A preparation of autologous T-lymphocytes expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)
specific for the tumor-associated antigen (TAA) C-type-lectin-like molecule-1 (CLL-1;
CLL1; C-type lectin domain family 12 member A; CLEC12A), with potential immunomodulating
and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, the autologous anti-CLL-1-CAR
T-lymphocytes BG1805 specifically target and bind to CLL-1-expressing tumor cells.
This induces selective toxicity in CLL-1-expressing tumor cells. CLL-1, a member of
the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily, is overexpressed
in leukemic stem cells (LSCs) and plays an important role in disease progression and
relapse in myeloid malignancies.;
