Definition

A preparation of autologous T lymphocytes that are genetically modified with a lentiviral vector encoding a T-cell receptor (TCR) targeting patient-specific tumor associated antigens (TAAs), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon intravenous administration back into the patient, the autologous TCR-engineered T cells IMA202 specifically recognize and bind to the TAA on cancer cells, which induces a cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated immune response against the TAA-positive cancer cells.
