Résumé

The use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells has demonstrated excellent results in B-lymphoid malignancies. The Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMP) status and good manufacturing practice (GMP) of CAR-T cells require particular conditions of production performed in a pharmaceutical establishment. Our team developed a new medical drug candidate for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a CAR targeting interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAP) expressed by leukemia stem cells, which will need to be evaluated in a phase I-IIa clinical trial. During the preclinical development phase, we produced IL-1RAP CAR-T cells in a semi-automated closed system (CliniMACSࣨ Prodigy) using research grade lentiviral particles.
