Abstract

The present invention provides TCRs having an affinity (KD) of less than or equal to 3 μM, and/or an off-rate (koff) of 1×10−3 S−1 or slower, for the AAGIGILTV-HLA-A*0201 complex. Such TCRs are useful, either alone or associated with a therapeutic agent, for targeting cancer cells presenting that complex.
