Implication

Preclinical study demonstrates that dual-clonal anti-VHH antibodies regulate and expand nanobody CAR-T cells, highlighting a versatile platform for manufacturing cellular therapies.

Key Points

  • Potent inhibition of chimeric antigen receptor cytolytic killing is achieved using dual-clonal anti-VHH antibodies targeting conserved framework regions.
  • Over 98% of tested nanobodies react with the dual-clonal reagent, which subsequently drives a 730-fold mean expansion without inducing functional exhaustion.
  • Assessment using immobilized anti-VHH antibodies demonstrates robust expansion and labeling of therapeutic cells; preclinical cell model, further in vivo testing needed.
