Abstract Objectives: The Kirsten rat sarcoma virus (KRAS) G12D oncogenic mutation poses a significant challenge in treating solid tumors due to the lack of specific and effective therapeutic interventions. This study aims to explore innovative approaches in T cell receptor (TCR) engineering and characterization to target the KRAS G12D7-16 mutation, providing potential strategies for overcoming this therapeutic challenge. Methods: In this innovative study, we engineered and characterized two T cell receptors (TCRs), KDA11-01 and KDA11-02 with high affinity for the KRAS G12D7-16 mutation. These TCRs were isolated from tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) derived from tumor tissues of patients More >
