TAK-940*

CD19 1XX CAR-T Relapsed/Refractory B-Cell Malignancies

Overview1-2

TAK-940 is an autologous next-generation CAR-T with modified ITAM (intracellular tyrosine based activation motif) signaling

MOA2

- TAK-940 (or autologous anti-CD19 CAR T cells 19(T2)28z1xx), is a collaboration with MSKCC. The product consists of autologous T cells that have been genetically modified to express a CAR targeting the tumor associated antigen (TAA) CD19, linked to the costimulatory intracellular signaling domains of CD28 and the zeta chain of the TCR/CD3 complex (CD3-zeta) (CD28zeta; CD28z), with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic activities

- Anti-CD19 CAR T cells 19(T2)28z1xx specifically recognize and bind to CD19-expressing tumor cells (expressed in B cell lineage malignancies), resulting in T cell-mediated tumor cell lysis

- CD28 and CD3zeta provide co-stimulatory activity and may enhance the cytotoxic effect and anti-tumor activity of CAR T cells

- The 19(T2)28z1xx CAR T cells include a 1928zeta mutant, 1xx, which contains one instead of all three immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs. This characteristic may help prevent counterproductive T cell differentiation and exhaustion
