Abstract

Abstract Although T‐cell therapy is a remarkable breakthrough in cancer immunotherapy, the therapeutic efficacy is limited for solid tumors. A major cause of the low efficacy is T‐cell exhaustion by immunosuppressive mechanisms of solid tumors, which are mainly mediated by programmed death‐ligand 1 (PD‐L1) and transforming growth factor‐beta (TGF‐β). Herein, T‐cell‐derived nanovesicles (TCNVs) produced by the serial extrusion of cytotoxic T cells through membranes with micro‐/nanosized pores that inhibit T‐cell exhaustion and exhibit antitumoral activity maintained in the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) are presented. TCNVs, which have programmed cell death protein 1 and TGF‐β receptor on their surface, block PD‐L1 on cancer cells and scavenge TGF‐β in the immunosuppressive TME, thereby preventing cytotoxic‐T‐cell exhaustion. In addition, TCNVs directly kill cancer cells via granzyme B delivery. TCNVs successfully suppress tumor growth in syngeneic‐solid‐tumor‐bearing mice. Taken together, TCNV offers an effective cancer immunotherapy strategy to overcome the tumor's immunosuppressive mechanisms.
