`
`BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
`The large majority of patients having B-cell malignancies, including
`chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), will die from their disease. One approach to
`treating these patients is to genetically modify T cells to target antigens expressed on
`
`tumor cells through the expression of chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). CARs are
`antigen receptors that are designed to recognize cell surface antigens in a human
`leukocyte antigen-independent manner. Attempts in using genetically modified cells
`expressing CA Rs to treat these types of patients have met with very limited success.
`See for example, Brentjens et al., 20 I 0, Molecular Therapy, 18:4, 666-668; Morgan et
`al., 2010, Molecular Therapy, published online February 23, 2010, pages J-9; and,
`Till et al., 2008, Blood, 112 :2261-2271,
`
`Tn most cancers, tumor-specific antigens are not yet well defined, but
`in B cell malignancies, CD19 is an attractive tumor target. Expression ofCD19 is
`restricted to normal and malignant B cells (Uckun, et al. Blood, 1988, 71 :13-29), so
`
`that CD 19 is a widely accepted target to safely test CA Rs, While CA Rs can trigger
`T-cell activation in a manneJ' similal' to an endogenous T-cell receptOl', a major
`impediment to the clinical application of this technology to date has been limited in
`
`vivo expansion of CAR+ T cells, rapid disappearance of the cells after infusion, and
`disappointing clinical activity (Jena, et al., Blood, 201 0, 116: I 035-1044; Ucktm, et al.
`Blood, 1988, 71 :13-29).
`
`Thus, there is an urgent need in the art for compositions and methods
`for treatment of cE111cer using CA Rs that can expand in vivo. The present invention
`addl·esses tl1is need.

`
`20
`
`combination thereof,
`
`In one embodiment, the costirnulatory signaling region in the CAR
`
`comprises the i.ntraceJlular domain of a costimulatory molecule selected from the
`group consisting ofCD27, CD28, 4-lBB, OX40, CD30, CD40, PD-I, ICOS,
`
`lymphocyte function-associated antigen-I (LFA-1), CD2, CD7, LIGHT, NKG2C, A7-
`
`25 H3, a ligand that specifically binds with CD83, and any combination thereof.
`In one embodiment, the CD3 zeta signaling domain in the CAR is
`
`encoded by the nucleic acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 18,
`
`The invention also provides an isolated CAR comprising an antigen
`
`binding domain, a transmembrane domain, a costimulatory signaling region, and n
`CD3 zeta signaling domain, wherein the CD3 zeta signaling domain comprises the
`
`30
`
`amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 24.
`
`The invention also provides a cell compl'ising a nucleic acid sequence
`encoding a CAR, wherein the CAR comprises an antigen binding domain, a

`domain comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 24.
`In one embodiment, the cell comprising the CAR ls selected from the
`group consisting ofa T cell, a Natural Killer (NK) cell, a cytotoxic T lymphocyte
`(CTL), and a regulatory T cell.
`ln one embodiment, the cell comprising the CAR exhibits an anti(cid:173)
`tumor immunity when the antigen binding domain of the CAR binds lo its
`corresponding antigen.
`The invention also provides a vector comprising a nucleic acid
`sequence encoding a CAR, wherein the CAR comprises an antigen binding domain, a
`costinrnlatory signaling region, and a CD3 zeta signaling domain, wherein the CD3
`zeta signaling domain comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 24.
`The invention also provides a method for stimulating a T cell-mediated
`immune 1·esponse to a target cell population or tissue in a mammal. 1n one
`embodiment, the method comprises administering to a mammal an effective amount
`of a cell genetically modified to express a CAR wherein the CAR comprises an
`antigen binding domain, a costimulatory signaling region, and a CD3 zeta signaling
`domain comprising the runino acid sequence of SEQ TD NO: 24, wherein the antigen
`binding domain is selected to specifically recognize the target cell population or
`tissue.
