    Today, Adaptimmune Therapeutics announced that its T cell therapy afamitresgene autoleucel (afami-cel, formerly ADP-A2M4), which targets the MAGE-A4 antigen, is used in the treatment of advanced synovial sarcoma or myxoid/round cell liposarcoma (MRCLS) Positive results were obtained in the pivotal phase 2 clinical trial


    Adaptimmune's TCR-T cell therapy platform is called SPEAR (Specific Peptide Enhanced Affinity Receptor)


    Adaptimmune's technology platform first identifies the antigen fragments displayed by cancer cells' unique HLA, and then screens out TCRs that bind to this antigen fragment and further genetically engineer them to enhance the affinity of TCR and antigen fragments, thereby increasing the TCR Activation of cells
