autologous anti-kappa light chain CAR-CD28-expressing T lymphocytes

A preparation of autologous T lymphocytes (ATL) that have been genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) directed against the kappa light chain of immunoglobulin (Ig) and linked to the costimulatory domain of CD28, with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, the autologous anti-kappa light chain CAR-CD28-expressing T lymphocytes target and bind to the kappa light chain of Ig expressed on tumor cells, resulting in T-cell-mediated tumor cell lysis. In some B-cell malignancies, the expression of the Ig light chain kappa may be increased compared to the expression of Ig light chain lambda.
