Vaccine-induced T cell receptor T cell therapy targeting a glioblastoma stemness antigen - Nature Communications Vaccination in glioblastomas does lead to the emergence of tumour-antigen-specific T cells but T cell dysfunction, poor tumour infiltration and persistence hinder efficient tumour killing. Here author...

πŸš€ New publication! We developed a PTPRZ1-specific TCR-T cell therapy for glioblastoma.

πŸ”¬ Key findings:
βœ… Identified a PTPRZ1-reactive TCR from a vaccinated patient
βœ… Kills glioblastoma cells with no off-target effects
βœ… Eliminates tumors in murine brain models
