The present invention relates to methods of developing genetically engineered, preferably non-alloreactive T-cells for immunotherapy. This method involves the use of RNA-guided endonucleases, in particular Cas9/CRISPR system, to specifically target a selection of key genes in T-cells. The engineered T-cells are also intended to express chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) to redirect their immune activity towards malignant or infected cells. The invention opens the way to standard and affordable adoptive immunotherapy strategies using T-Cells for treating cancer and viral infections. |

The invention provides methods and compositions that remove target genetic material from a subject by delivery of an enzyme that degrades the target genetic material. The methods include delivering a composition of a nucleic acid to a tissue, such as skin, of a subject along with various types of energy to enhance permeability of the tissue and cause the nucleic acid to enter cells of the tissue, wherein the nucleic acid comprises a gene for an enzyme that cuts target genetic material. The nucleic acid may be a plasmid comprising a cas9 gene and at least one gene for a short guide RNA (sgRNA) and the target genetic material may be viral genome, i.e., with the sgRNA complementary to a portion of the viral genome. |
