Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are an effective treatment for some blood cancers. However, the lack of tumor-specific surface antigens limits their wider use. We identified a set of surface antigens that are limited in their expression to cancer and the central nervous system (CNS). We developed CAR T cells against one of these antigens, LINGO1, which is widely expressed in Ewing sarcoma (ES). To prevent CNS targeting, we engineered LINGO1 CAR T cells lacking integrin α Show less
