Problems solved by technology

Although the transposon method can carry out long-lasting gene transfer similarly to the viral vector method, there are the following problems: compared with the viral vector method, the gene transfer efficiency is low, and in addition, the cells follow the gene transfer operation (electroporation and its improved method, etc.) ) was damaged, cell survival rate, cell proliferation rate decreased

[0095] The preparation method of this mode includes the following steps (i) to (iv). In addition, regarding matters not mentioned (for example, methods for preparing cell populations containing T cells, basic manipulations of stimulation by anti-CD3 The operation of gene introduction, the basic operation of co-cultivation, the recovery method of cells, etc.) are the same as the above-mentioned first production method, therefore, redundant descriptions are omitted, and corresponding descriptions are cited.

Embodiment

[0115]

[0116] Compared with the case of using a viral vector, the CAR therapy using the transposon method is particularly advantageous in terms of safety. On the other hand, low gene transfer efficiency, easy damage to cells during gene transfer operations (such as electroporation), and a small number of obtained cells are problems. In order to overcome these problems, the following studies have been conducted.

Abstract

In order to improve the efficiency of gene introduction in CAR therapy employing a transposon technique, provided is a method for preparing genetically-modified T cells which express a chimeric antigen receptor, comprising: (1) a step for preparing non-proliferative cells obtained by stimulating a group of cells including T cells using an anti-CD3 antibody and an anti-CD28 antibody, and thereafter, subjecting the cells to a treatment for causing the cells to lose their proliferation capability; (2) a step for obtaining genetically-modified T cells into which a target antigen-specific chimericantigen receptor gene has been introduced using a transposon technique; (3) mixing the non-proliferative cells prepared at step (1) with the genetically-modified T cells obtained at step (2), and co-culturing the mixed cells while stimulating the mixed cells using the anti-CD3 antibody and the anti-CD28 antibody; and (4) a step for collecting the cultured cells. Also, provided is a method for preparing genetically-modified T cells which express a chimeric antigen receptor, comprising: (i) a step for preparing non-proliferative cells holding a viral peptide antigen, which cells are obtained bystimulating a group of cells including T cells using an anti-CD3 antibody and an anti-CD28 antibody, and thereafter, subjecting the cells to culturing in the presence of the viral peptide antigen anda treatment for causing the cells to lose their proliferation capability; (ii) a step for obtaining genetically-modified T cells into which a target antigen-specific chimeric antigen receptor gene hasbeen introduced using a transposon technique; (iii) mixing the non-proliferative cells prepared at step (i) with the genetically-modified T cells obtained at step (ii), and co-culturing the mixed cells; and (iv) a step for collecting the cultured cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a preparation method and application of genetically modified T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors. This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2015-200458 for which it applied on October 8, 2015, All the content of this patent application is incorporated in this specification by reference. Background technique [0002] Gene-modified T cell therapy (CAR therapy) using a chimeric antigen receptor (Chimeric Antigen Receptor; hereinafter also referred to as "CAR") is being clinically used. A CAR typically has a structure in which the single-chain variable region of an antibody is used as an extracellular domain, and a transmembrane region, CD3ζ, and an intracellular domain of a molecule that transmits costimulatory signals are connected to the extracellular domain. By binding to the antigen according to the specificity of the antibody, CAR-T cells are activated to damage target cells (cancer ...
