It often involves the isolation, manipulation and reintroduction of DNA, usually to express a protein.

After transduction, expansion in culture, and reintroduction into the patient, the mesothelin-specific chimeric antigen receptor-engineered PBLs bind to tumor cells expressing mesothelin.

Upon isolation, transduction, expansion ex vivo, and reintroduction into the patient, the NY-ESO-1 reactive TCR-transduced autologous PBLs bind to NY-ESO-1-overexpressing tumor cells.

Upon reintroduction into the patient, autologous anti-PSMA gene-modified T-cells bind to PSMA-expressing prostate cancer cells, which may result in specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) tumor cell killing.

(Autologous Anti-PSMA Gene-Modified T-Lymphocytes, NCI Thesaurus)

After expansion in culture and reintroduction into the patient, the anti-VEGFR2 CAR-gene engineered CD8+ lymphocytes express anti-VEGFR2-CAR on their cell surfaces and bind to the VEGFR2 antigen on tumor cell surfaces.

(Anti-VEGFR2-CAR Retroviral Vector-transduced Autologous T-lymphocytes, NCI Thesaurus)

After expansion in culture and reintroduction into the patient, anti-Her-2-CAR retroviral vector-transduced autologous peripheral blood lymphocytes, which express anti-Her-2-CAR on their cell surfaces, bind to Her-2 antigen on tumor cell surfaces.

(Anti-Her-2-CAR Retroviral Vector-Transduced Autologous Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes, NCI Thesaurus)

But reintroduction efforts so far have failed because of the persistence of the fungus at collection sites.

After transduction, expansion in culture, and reintroduction into the patient, anti-CEA TCR retroviral vector-transduced autologous lymphocytes bind to tumor cells expressing CEA, which may result in cytokine expression, activation and proliferation of T-cells, and a specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response against CEA-expressing tumor cells.

(Anti-CEA TCR Retroviral Vector-Transduced Autologous Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes, NCI Thesaurus)

After expansion in culture and reintroduction into the patient, the anti-HER2-CAR autologous CMV-specific CTLs bind to Her-2 antigen on tumor cell surfaces; subsequently, Her-2-positive tumor cells and stem cells may be lysed.
