Solid tumors, such as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), are biologically complex due to cellular heterogeneity, lack of tumor-specific antigens, and an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). These challenges restrain chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell efficacy, underlining the importance of armoring. In solid cancers, a localized tumor mass allows alternative administration routes, such as intratumoral delivery with the potential to improve efficacy and safety but may compromise metastatic-site treatment. Using a multi-layered CAR T cell engineering strategy that allowed a synergy between attributes, we show enhanced cytotoxic activity of MUC1 CAR T cells armored with PD1

attributes catered towards the TNBC TME. Intratumoral treatment effectively reduced distant tumors, suggesting retention of antigen-recognition benefits at metastatic sites. Overall, we provide preclinical evidence of armored non-alloreactive MUC1 CAR T cells greatly reducing high TNBC tumor burden in a TGFB1- and PD-L1–rich TME both at local and distant sites while preserving safety.
