Abstract

The present invention relates to artificial antigen presenting cell (aAPC) scaffolds to provide cells with specific functional stimulation to obtain phenotypic and functional properties ideal to mediate tumor regression or viral clearance. In particular, the scaffolds of the present invention comprise stabilized MHC class I molecules free of antigenic peptide. The scaffolds can be loaded with antigenic peptide on demand, providing an agile platform for effective expansion and functional stimulation of specific T cells in a peptide-MHC-directed fashion.
