Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an attractive entity for the development of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell immunotherapy because AML blasts are susceptible to T-cell-mediated elimination. Here, we introduce sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin 6 (Siglec-6) as a novel target for CAR T cells in AML. We designed a Siglec-6-specific CAR with a targeting domain derived from the human monoclonal antibody JML-1.

The only current curative treatment for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Chimeric antigen receptor treatment targeting CD19 for CLL achieved some complete responses, suggesting the need for alternative or combinational therapies to achieve a more robust response. In this work, we evaluated CAR-T cells specific for Siglec-6, an antigen expressed in CLL, as a novel CAR-T cell treatment for CLL.
