NKG2D-based Multi-target CAR

Since CAR-T therapy has achieved great success in adoptive immunotherapy of relapse/refractory cancer, many efforts have been taken to improve the safety, effectiveness, and persistence of the cells to treat complex solid tumors. Recently, a multi-target CAR technology has been developed to direct constant CAR-engineered immune cells toward multiple tumors or targets. This functional CAR is designed by introducing a modified NKG2D (mNKG2D) extracellular domain as a ligand-binding domain to the scFV location of a classic CAR molecular. The mNKG2D-CAR expressing cells are activated by the modified NKG2D ligand fused to antigen-specific antibodies and then attracted to the tumor site and perform antigen-specific cytotoxicity. The mNKG2D-mediated CAR-cell therapy is versatile and flexible under the regulation of different antibodies.

Key Features of the NKG2D-based Multi-target CAR

Recognize More Than One Target
Single and combined multiple antibodies can direct NKG2D CAR-expressing cells to various antigens and avoid antigen loss-induced relapse.
Controllable Safety and Efficacy
The efficacy of the cell therapy is dependent on the dosage of the CAR-T/NK cell and the amounts of antigen-specific antibodies.
Improved Proliferation and Persistence
mNKG2D CAR is a human-derived protein molecular with weak immunogenicity.
