Abstract

Abstract Recently, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has shown great promise in treating haematological malignancies 1–7 . However, CAR-T cell therapy currently has several limitations 8–12 . Here we successfully developed a two-in-one approach to generate non-viral, gene-specific targeted CAR-T cells through CRISPR–Cas9. Using the optimized protocol, we demonstrated feasibility in a preclinical study by inserting an anti-CD19 CAR cassette into the AAVS1 safe-harbour locus. Furthermore, an innovative type of anti-CD19 CAR-T cell with PD1 integration was developed and showed superior ability to eradicate tumour cells in xenograft models. In adoptive therapy for relapsed/refractory aggressive B cell…
