  • Sarcoma

Interventions

BIOLOGICAL

GCAR1

GCAR1 is a patient-specific cell therapy product containing a mixture of autologous lymphocytes transduced with a lentiviral vector encoding a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting GPNMB. The CAR comprises a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) binding domain derived from a fully human GPNMB-specific monoclonal antibody (CDX-011), a CD8 hinge and transmembrane domain, a myc sequence for product identification, and the CD137 (4-1BB) and CD3 zeta chain intracellular signaling domains. After infusion, the autologous GPNMB CAR T-cells expressing the genetically engineered anti-GPNMB CAR enable the specific targeting of GPNMB-expressing cells. Upon binding to GPNMB-expressing cells, the CAR transmits T cell activation signals that promote the elimination of target cells through CAR T cell degranulation and the release of cytotoxic molecules. The cellular signal also facilitates CAR T cell proliferation and persistence that may enable prolonged disease control through immunosurveillance
