Autologous Anti-HER2 CAR T-cells CCT303-406

**Semantic type:** Cell|Pharmacologic Substance

**Definition:** A preparation of autologous T-lymphocytes that have been genetically modified to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting the tumor-associated antigen (TAA) human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2; ErbB2; HER-2), with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, autologous anti-HER2 CAR T-cells CCT303-406 target and bind to HER2-expressing tumor cells, thereby inducing selective toxicity in HER2-expressing tumor cells. HER2 is overexpressed in a variety of cancer cell types and is associated with increased tumor cell proliferation.

**Synonyms:** - Autologous Anti-HER2 CAR-T Cells CCT303-406 - CCT 303-406 - CCT-303-406 - CCT303-406
