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...

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

🔬 Key findings:
✅ Identified a PTPRZ1-reactive TCR from a vaccinated patient
✅ Kills glioblastoma cells with no off-target effects
✅ Eliminates tumors in murine brain models
