“Exciting preliminary results in Nature Medicine by Dr. Rosenberg at National Cancer Institute in MSS mCRC.
Adoptive transfer of personalized neoantigen-reactive TCR-transduced T cells in metastatic colorectal cancer: phase 2 trial interim results.
‘T cell populations were polyfunctional in that they secreted IFNγ, GM-CSF, IL-2 and granzyme B specifically in response to mutant peptides compared with wild-type counterparts. TCR-transduced cells were detected in the peripheral blood of five patients, including the three responders, at levels ≥10% of CD3+ cells 1 month post-ACT.’ ”
