TCRαβ/CD3 disruption enables CD3-specific antileukemic T cell immunotherapy

This paper reports the creation of anti-CD3 CAR-T cells (3CAR) using TALEN-mediated TCR disruption to avoid self-killing. G-Rex were used to scale up the production, allowing 3CAR T cells to expand 100-fold and self-enrich for the TCR-negative population.
