OBJECTIVETo test the killing effect of type Ⅰ receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor (ROR1) chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) on several ROR1-expressing tumor cells in vitro.METHODSThe CAR gene was designed and synthesized by constructing the lentiviral vector plasmid, and BamHⅠ/EcoRⅠ was used to identify the plasmid. The expression levels of ROR1 among a variety of tumor cell lines were compared using flow cytometry (FCM). The killing effect of CAR-T on positive cells was detected by FCM, the LDH assay and ELISA.RESULTSThe double enzyme digestion identified CAR gene was successfully constructed to the lentivirus vector plasmid. FCM detection showed that the efficiency of CAR-T infection was about 47.23%. Multiple tumor cells expressed ROR1 in varying degrees. The FCM and the LDH assay indicated that CAR-T specifically killed ROR1-positive tumor cells. On positive target cells, more interferonI-γ (FN-γ) could be released during the CAR-T killing process than control T (P<0.05).CONCLUSIONWe successfully constructed ROR1 CAR-T. CAR-T can specifically kill ROR1-positive tumor cells and cause the release of large amounts of IFN-γ, providing an experimental basis for clinical application.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T-cells (CAR-T) have demonstrated promising clinical benefits against B-cell malignancies. Yet, its application for solid tumors is still facing challenges. Unlike haematological cancers, solid tumors often lack good targets, which are ideally expressed on the tumor cells, but not by the normal healthy cells. Fortunately, receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1) is among a few good cancer targets that is aberrantly expressed on various tumors but has a low expression on normal tissue, suggesting it as a good candidate for CAR-T therapy. Here, we constructed two ROR1 CARs with the same antigen recognition domain that was derived from Zilovertamab but differing in hinge regions. Both CARs target ROR1+ cancer cells specifically, but CAR with a shorter IgG4 hinge exhibits a higher surface expression and better in vitro functionality. We further tested the ROR1 CAR-T in three human solid tumor xenografted mouse models. Our ROR1 CAR-T cells controlled the solid tumor growth without causing any severe toxicity. Our results demonstrated that ROR1 CAR-T derived from Zilovertamab is efficacious and safe to suppress ROR1+ solid tumors in vitro and in vivo, providing a promising therapeutic option for future clinical application.
