Claims30
A method of clonal expansion of T cells that express a T cell receptor beta variable region (TCRβV) in a T cell population, the method comprising:
- contacting the T cell population with a composition comprising a multispecific molecule,
- wherein the multispecific molecule comprises a first domain that binds to a first target molecule and a second domain that binds to a second target molecule,
- wherein the first target molecule is a TCRβV,
- wherein the multispecific molecule is a TCRβV agonist,
- wherein the second domain comprises a tumor-targeting domain, a cytokine molecule, or a stromal modifying domain, and
- wherein the first domain contacts the TCRβV of a T cell receptor (TCR) expressed by the T cells in the T cell population, thereby clonally expanding memory T cells in the T cell population that express the TCR comprising the TCRβV at least about 2-fold.
