1. A method of treating a tumor in a subject, the method comprising conjointly administering to the subject a first CAR polypeptide and a second CAR polypeptide, wherein the first CAR polypeptide comprises:
a) at least one intracytoplasmic/costimulatory region comprising a cluster of differentiation 28 zeta (CD28/ζ) domain,
b) at least one intracytoplasmic signaling region comprising a cluster of differentiation 3 zeta (CD3/ζ) domain, and
c) an antigen binding domain comprising:
(i) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:17 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 21;
(ii) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:18 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 22;
(iii) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:19 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 23;
(iv) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:31 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 32;
or
(v) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:37 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 38, and the second CAR polypeptide comprises:
a) a 4-1BB domain in the costimulatory region of the CAR polypeptide,
b) at least one intracytoplasmic signaling region comprising a cluster of differentiation 3 zeta (CD3/ζ) domain, and
c) an extracellular antigen binding domain comprising:
(i) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:17 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 21;
(ii) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:18 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 22;
(iii) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:19 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 23;
(iv) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:31 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 32;
or
(v) a light chain comprising SEQ ID NO:37 and a heavy chain comprising SEQ ID NO: 38.
