Embodiment Construction
[0052] The immune system's primary response to tumors is to destroy abnormal cells using killer T cells, sometimes with the help of helper T cells. However, most tumors release products that suppress the immune response through various means and create an environment that normally hinders T cell activation. The present invention provides means to support anti-tumor immune responses in this setting by using MSCs as described herein.
[0053] The present invention is characterized by the surprising discovery that MSCs exhibit stimulating adjuvant properties relative to combined anti-tumor immunotherapies. In particular, the MSCs of the present invention do not contain transgenes expressing immunostimulatory cytokines or other immunostimulatory molecules, such as those that induce an antigen-independent immune response, resulting in enhanced efficacy of CAR-T cells against cancerous substances.
[0054] Responses to pathogens or cancerous tissue are coordinated through the compl...
