T cell receptor-engineered T (TCR-T) cell therapy has demonstrated therapeutic effects in basic research and clinical trials for treating solid tumors. Due to the peptide-dependent recognition and the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restriction, TCR-T cell therapy is generally custom designed to target individual antigens. The lack of suitable universal targets for tumor cells significantly limits its clinical applications. Establishing a universal TCR-T treatment strategy is of great significance. This study designed and evaluated the HLA-peptide-addressing universal (HAUL) TCR-T cell therapy based on HLA-peptide (pHLA) loaded membrance fusogenic deliver system. The pHLA-NP-based tumor cell membrane modification technology can transfer the pHLA onto the surface of tumor cells through membrane fusogenic nanoparticles. Then tumor cells are recognized and killed by TCR-T cells specifically. The HAUL TCR-T cell therapy technology is a universal technology that enables tumor cells to be identified and killed by specific TCR-T cells, regardless of the HLA typing of tumor cells.
