The purpose of this invention is to provide an immunocompetent cell that targets mesothelin. Another purpose is to produce an immunocompetent cell that expresses a cell surface molecule specifically recognizing human mesothelin, interleukin-7 (IL-7), and chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 19 (CCL19). It is preferable that: the cell surface molecule that specifically recognizes human mesothelin is a chimera antigen receptor (CAR) provided with a single-chain antibody, a membrane-spanning domain and a signal transmission domain which induces the activation of the immunocompetent cell; and that the heavy chain variable domain and the light chain variable domain are linked via a peptide linker comprising a sequence of 2-30 amino acids.
