Abstract
Disclosed are compositions and methods for targeted treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). In particular, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) polypeptides are disclosed that can be used with adoptive cell transfer to target and kill Glioblastoma Stem Cells (GSCs). Also disclosed are immune effector cells, such as T cells or Natural Killer (NK) cells, that are engineered to express these CARs. Therefore, also disclosed are methods of providing an anti-tumor immunity in a subject with Glioblastoma Stem Cells (GSCs) that involves adoptive transfer of the disclosed immune effector cells engineered to express the disclosed CARs.
