Product Details
CAR T cell therapy redirects patient T cells to target and eliminate tumor cells. CARs, fusion proteins with antibody-derived antigen recognition and T cell signaling domains, gained FDA approval in 2017 for CD19-targeted therapies in B-cell malignancies. Lentiviral vectors are crucial for CAR transduction in T cell manufacturing, offering stable integration and efficient transduction of dividing/nondividing cells. Creative Biogene provides a comprehensive line of CAR-T lentiviral particles, delivering ready-to-transduce CAR-T lentiviruses with up to 10^9 IFU/mL for accelerated research timelines.

Case Study
Case Study 1
Researchers utilized lentiviral vectors (LV) to engineer T cells with a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) gp350 for immunotherapy against nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). The construct, ZT002, expressing scFv 7A1-anti-gp350, was manufactured under good manufacturing practices (GMP) in HEK 293T/17 cells, yielding a high titer (~1x10^8 TU/ml). In preclinical studies using immunocompromised mice, gp350 CAR-T cells demonstrated antitumor responses, tissue distribution, tumor infiltration, and rejection of gp350-expressing tumor cells.
Figure 1. Researchers employed the ZT002 construct for the large-scale production and purification of lentiviral vectors. The 5’ LTR incorporates the EF1α promoter and a WPRE element, enhancing RNA stability upstream of the mutated (Δ) 3’ LTR. (Zhang X, et al., 2023)
Case Study 2
Osteosarcoma (OS) ranks as the predominant bone tumor in children and adolescents, standing as the third most prevalent solid tumor in this demographic. Researchers employed lentiviral vectors to generate B7-H3-CAR T cells or control CAR T cells. The developed orthotopic model, utilizing LM7 OS cells expressing firefly luciferase, reliably mimics human metastatic pediatric osteosarcoma. This model allows real-time imaging of orthotopic tumors and lung metastases. The orthotopic model facilitates the evaluation of safety and efficacy for CAR T cell therapies and other treatment modalities for metastatic osteosarcoma. The lentiviral transduction ensured high-level CAR expression and comparable T cell phenotypes.

Case study 3
B7-H3 is a potential immunotherapy target for solid tumors in pediatric patients, utilizing monoclonal antibodies and T cells equipped with chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). Researchers extensively utilized lentiviral vectors to engineer T cells expressing B7-H3-CARs with various hinge/transmembrane and costimulatory domains (CD8α/CD28, CD8α/41BB, CD28/CD28, CD28/41BB). Despite subtle in vitro differences, CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells consistently outperformed others in animal models, showing significant survival benefits. Surprisingly, adding 41BB signaling to CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells had detrimental effects, while expressing 41BBL on their surface-enhanced tumor-killing abilities. This intricate interplay influenced the selection of CD8α/CD28-CAR T cells expressing 41BBL for early-phase clinical testing, emphasizing the importance of careful domain selection in CAR T cell design.
