drug_description
CRISPR-edited, healthy-donor T cells engineered with an anti-CD19 STAR receptor inserted at the TRAC locus and knockouts of TRAC, HLA-A/B, CIITA, and PD-1 to target CD19+ B cells while reducing rejection and GvHD.

drug_mechanism_of_action
Allogeneic CRISPR-edited donor T cells engineered with an anti‑CD19 STAR receptor inserted at the TRAC locus redirect TCR–CD3 signaling to recognize and kill CD19+ B cells independent of MHC. Knockout of TRAC removes the endogenous TCR to reduce GvHD; HLA‑A/B and CIITA knockouts lower allorecognition and host rejection by minimizing MHC I/II expression; and PD‑1 knockout enhances resistance to checkpoint-mediated inhibition, improving antitumor activity against CD19+ malignancies.
