1. A T-cell receptor (TCR) comprising:
(i) a CDR alpha chain comprising a variable region having a CDR1 consisting of the amino acid sequence VSGLRG (SEQ ID NO: 5), a CDR2 consisting of the amino acid sequence of LYSAGEE (SEQ ID NO: 3), and a CDR3 consisting of the amino acid sequence of CAVHSTAQAGTALIF (SEQ ID NO: 1); and
(ii) a CDR beta chain comprising a variable region having a CDR1 consisting of the amino acid sequence of SGDLS (SEQ ID NO. 6), a CDR2 consisting of the amino acid sequence YYNGEE (SEQ ID NO. 4), and a CDR3 consisting of the amino acid sequence of CASSTHRGQTNYGYTF (SEQ ID NO. 2),
said TCR being capable of binding to the epitope comprised within the amino acid A sequence of VLDGLDVLL (SEQ ID NO:32) in its HLA-A*02:01-bound form.
