Purpose: Donor T cells directed to hematopoietic minor histocompatibility antigens (mHag) are appealing tools for adoptive immunotherapy of hematological malignancies after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). Toward the development of a convenient strategy for ex vivo generation of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II^restricted mHag-specific T cells, we evaluated the feasibility of rebuilding mHag-specific T cell functions in donor-derived recall antigen-specific T cells via T cell receptor (TCR) transfer. Experimental Design: TCR a-and h-chains of an HLA-DPB1*0401^restricted T-cell clone recognizing a multiple myeloma-associated mHag were retrovirally transferred into a tetanus toxoid (TT)^specific clone derived from the original stem cell donor. TCR double-transduced cells were compared with the parent mHag-and TT-specific clones for antigen specificity, cytokine secretion, and cytotoxic activity and were analyzed for their in vitro expansion capacity in a TT-or mHag-specific fashion. Results: mHag-TCR^transduced TT-specific cells displayed both TT and mHag specificity. Similar to the parent cells, they secreted Th-1cytokines and exerted significant cytotoxic activity against TT-pulsed or mHag + target cells, including multiple myeloma cells. A 4-week expansion of TCR-transduced cells via the TT-specificTCR had no negative influence on the mHag-specific cytotoxic activity and resulted in 10-to 100-fold better cell yields as compared with mHagspecific expansion. Conclusions: HLA class II^restricted, mHag-specific effector functions can be successfully reconstructed in donor-derived TT-specific T cells via TCR transfer. Effective expansion of these T cells via TT-specificTCRs illustrate the suitability of this strategy for ex vivo expansion and possibly for in vivo TT-specific reboosting of HLA class II^restricted immunotherapeutic T cells.
