| 摘要 |
This invention provides a retroviral vector comprising (a) a 3′LTR; and (b) an insert having (i) a promoter, (ii) a sequence encoding an immunomolecule selected from the group consisting of cytokines, adhesion molecules, costimulatory factors, tumor associated antigens and tumor specific antigens, and (iii) a poly A signal, respectively, said promoter, sequence encoding an immunomolecule and poly A signal being aligned in a 5′ to 3′ orientation, wherein the insert is positioned within the 3′LTR in the orientation opposite to that of the 3′LTR. This invention further provides a genetically manipulated cell useful for treating or preventing a malignant tumor in a patient which a) expresses at least one immunomolecule selected from the group consisting of cytokines, adhesion molecules, costimulatory factors, tumor associated antigens and tumor specific antigens; and b) is allogenic to the patient. This invention also provides a method of treating a malignant tumor or preventing tumor formation in a subject which comprises administering to the subject a plurality of a genetically manipulated cell which (a) expresses at least one immunomolecule selected from the group consisting of cytokines, adhesion molecules, costimulatory factors, tumor associated antigens and tumor specific antigens and (b) is allogeneic relative to the subject, so as to inhibit proliferation of the malignant tumor or prevent tumor formation.
