Enabling next-generation engineered TCR-T therapies based on high-throughput TCR discovery from diagnostic tumor biopsies
Abstract Adoptive cell therapy with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) can mediate tumor regression, including complete and durable responses, in a range of solid cancers, most notably in melanoma. However, its wider application and efficacy has been restricted by the limited accessibility, prolif...

description | Abstract Adoptive cell therapy with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) can mediate tumor regression, including complete and durable responses, in a range of solid cancers, most notably in melanoma. However, its wider application and efficacy has been restricted by the limited accessibility, proliferative capacity and effector function of tumor-specific TIL. Here, we develop a platform for the efficient identification of tumor-specific TCR genes from diagnostic tumor biopsies, including core-needle biopsies frozen in a non-viable format, to enable engineered T cell therapy. Using a genetic screening approach that detects antigen-reactive TCRs with high sensitivity and specificity based on T cell activation, we show that high complexity TCR libraries can be efficiently screened against multiplexed antigen libraries to identify both HLA class I and II restricted TCRs. Through the identification of neoantigen-specific TCRs directly from melanoma as well as low tumor mutational burden microsatellite-stable colorectal carcinoma samples, we demonstrate the pan-cancer potential of this platform. |
