The present invention is directed to the field of immunotherapy, in particular, adoptive T cell therapy or T cell receptor (TCR) gene therapy of cancer. The invention provides a nucleic acid encoding at least one TCR alpha or beta chain construct of a TCR construct capable of specifically binding to a MYD88 L265P peptide of SEQ ID NO: 2 in the context of HLA-B*07:02 having a high avidity to said peptide/HLA complex. The invention also provides corresponding proteins and host cells, preferably, CD8+ T cells, as well as the medical use of such nucleic acids, proteins or host cells, in particular, in the diagnosis, prevention and/or treatment of a MyD88 L265P expressing cancer such as a non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma selected from the group comprising diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), e.g., activated B-cell-like DLBCL (ABC-DLBCL) or pCNS DLBCL, cutaneous DLBCL, leg-type DLBCL or testicular DLBCL; lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL), e.g., Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM); and IgM monoclonal gammopathy (IgM MGUS).
