Nanobody-based Naturally Selected CD7-Targeted CAR-T Therapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Approximately 30% of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients express CD7 on their myeloblasts. We have previously demonstrated that scFv-based “naturally selected” CD7 CAR-T (NS7CAR-T) therapy shows significant efficacy with a favorable safety profile in T-cell lymphoid malignancies. Here we derived dual nanobody-based dVHH NS7CAR-T cells that have superior CD7 binding specificity, affinity to their scFv-based counterparts and improved proliferative capability. In this phase I clinical trial, …
