NY-ESO-1 (c259) TCR-T Cells
The NY-ESO-1 (c259) TCR-T Cells are generated by high-titer lentiviral transduction of human primary CD4+ and CD8+ T cells with NY-ESO-1-Specific TCR Lentivirus (Clone c259) (#78676). These ready-to-use TCR (T cell receptor) -T cells express the human TCR clone c259, that specifically recognizes the antigen NY-ESO-1 (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1).
These TCR-T cells have been validated by flow cytometry (to determine the TCR expression) and co-culture assays (IFN-γ staining and degranulation).

TRAV and TRAC correspond to the TCR alpha chain variable and constant regions, respectively, whereas TRBV and TRBC correspond to the TCR beta chain variable and constant regions

NY-ESO-1 (New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1), also known as Cancer/testis antigen 1 or CTAG1B, is an important tumorigenic marker present in malignant cells. Normally expressed only in embryonic testis, this highly immunogenic protein is not usually found in normal tissues, but is re-expressed in multiple myeloma, non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), and breast and ovarian cancer, making it a promising candidate antigen for cancer immunotherapy. Several NY-ESO-1-directed therapies are being developed including cancer vaccines, anti-NY-ESO-1 adoptive cell therapy, and NY-ESO-1-specific TCR-T cell therapy in combination with checkpoint inhibitors.
