Abstract
Described herein are methods for producing and utilizing T cells comprising chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) comprising a portion of the extracellular domain of a Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) superfamily receptor ligand, e.g., A PRoliferation-Inducing Ligand (APRIL). The CAR T cells of this present invention overcome resistance to anti-BCMA targeted therapies and utilize dimerizing and trimerizing transmembrane domains for optimal function. Further, this invention is related to methods of treating cancer, plasma cell diseases or disorders, or autoimmune diseases or disorders.
