Abstract
Retinoblastoma (RB) is a pediatric retinal tumor that overexpresses the ganglioside GD2. Although it is treatable in patients with early diagnosis, patients may lose one or two eyes. We generated GD2-specific chimeric antigen receptor T lymphocytes (GD2.CAR-Ts) and locally delivered them to mice with an in-situ grafting RB. When used in combination with the local release of interleukin (IL)-15 and an injectable hydrogel, we showed that GD2.CAR-Ts successfully eliminate RB tumor cells without impairment of the mouse vision.Entities:
