NCIt synonyms : Autologous CAR-GPC3 T Cells JWAT204; Autologous GPC3-directed CAR-T Cells JWAT204; Autologous Anti-GPC3 CAR T-cells JWAT204; Autologous Anti-GPC3 CAR T Cells JWAT204;
NCIt definition : A preparation of autologous T-lymphocytes that have been genetically modified to express
a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) specific for glypican-3 (GPC3), with potential immunostimulating
and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, autologous anti-GPC3 CAR T-lymphocytes
JWAT204 specifically target and bind to GPC3-expressing tumor cells, resulting in
tumor cell lysis. GPC3, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan and a member of the glypican
family, is overexpressed on certain tumor cell types while minimally expressed in
normal, healthy cells; GPC3 plays an important role in cellular proliferation and
differentiation.;
