1. A composition comprising a pool of recombinant primary human T cells or progeny thereof:
(i) have been modified to functionally impair and/or to reduce expression of the endogenous T cell receptor (TCR), and
(ii) have been further modified to express at least one functional exogenous non-TCR receptor comprising (1) a ligand binding domain which binds to a ligand expressed by tumor cells of the treated subject and (2) a signaling domain,
wherein said pool of recombinant modified human T cells or progeny thereof express one or more ligand binding domains which bind to an antigen expressed by tumor cells of the treated subject.
