A dual chain chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) in the native antibody format for targeting immune cells towards cancer cells without the need of an scFv.

abstract：:Gene therapy with viral vectors has progressed to clinical trials. However, the localization of viral vector delivery to diseased target sites remains a challenge. We tested the hypothesis that an adenoviral vector could be successfully delivered by complexation with a specific antibody that is bound to a biodegradabl...
