However, there are many challenges to overcome, such as difficulty to meet clinical-grade ex vivo expansion, limited in vivo persistence, limited infiltration to solid tumors, and tumor editing to evade NK cell activity. Nat Commun. Vallera et al. While the majority of investigation of ex vivo NK priming strategies rely on one or more cytokines, some studies indicate that cytokine supplement is not as critical for NK cell priming. 2014;20(4):46373. MUC1-specific CAR-pNK therapy presented good safety profile and preliminary efficacy in preventing both tumor relapses and graft versus host disease [151]. Google Scholar. Allaoui R, et al.

PubMed Central PubMed Central The anti-CD3 mAb presumably activates T cells in feeder to secret cytokines which subsequently create a milieu favorable for NK cell expansion [145]. WebNK cells are innate lymphocytes holding a spectrum of functional aptitudes, comprising anti-cancer, anti-viral, and anti-graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) functions ( 2 ). 2017;2017:6915912. Cytotherapy. Blood. Part of 1986;137(9):27359. Chabannon C, et al. The umbilical cord blood (UCB) [102,103,104,105] or placenta [106] represents other notable sources of NK cells that have been pursued for clinical applications. Zhang Q, et al. The presence of autologous feeder cells (typically CD3-depleted PBMCs) in culture additionally facilitates NK expansion [124]. As the activation and expansion methods are improving, it is becoming possible to prepare increasingly higher dosages of NK cells for adoptive transfer from a single-donor phlebotomy. 2013;15(10):1297306. Natural killer (NK) cells are an essential part of tumor immunosurveillance, evidenced by higher cancer susceptibility and metastasis in association with diminished NK activity in mouse models and clinical studies [1,2,3]. Clinical evaluation of safety and efficacy of NK cells under this expansion is warranted. CS1-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered natural killer cells enhance in vitro and in vivo antitumor activity against human multiple myeloma. In addition to cytokine-only strategies, Cichocki and colleagues demonstrated that pharmacologic inhibition of GSK3 kinase with CHIR99021 drives late-stage maturation of ex vivo-expanded human peripheral blood NK cells and enhanced their anti-tumor effector functions both in vitro and in vivo [87]. Granzin M, et al. WebImmune regulation has revolutionized cancer treatment with the introduction of T-cell-targeted immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). 2017;8(1):67. In response to the mounting data on this emerging therapy, the present paper provides a thorough review of the technical issues, molecular background and current preclinical and clinical data associated with CAR-NK cell applications in cancer treatment. IL-21 has various effects on human NK cells. 2016;7:504. They showed that infusion of NK cells from HLA-haploidentical donors combined with subcutaneous IL-2 administration after a pre-conditioning regimen of high-dose cyclophosphamide and fludarabine resulted in successful in vivo expansion of donor NK cells and the induction of complete remission in 5 out of 19 patients with poor-prognosis acute myeloid leukemia (AML) [5]. The relative proportion of CD56bright and CD56dim NK cells in tissues can be very different from that observed in the peripheral blood [17]. Article Liu B, et al. For example, there is an ongoing phase 2 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of human HLA-haploidentical hematopoieticcelltransplantation (HCT) followed by an early, post-transplant infusion of donor NKcells (NCT02100891). Conversely, tumorigenic cells or virally infected cells have downregulated MHC I expression but upregulated levels of ligands for NK cell activating receptors and thus trigger NK cell activation due to the lack of inhibitory signals and/or the presence of activating signals [11]. In summary, NK cells are functional in tumor surveillance and can be manipulated by artificial activation techniques to present a highly effective anticancer tool against hematopoietic malignancies and, dependent on successful further rearming and mobilization, against solid tumors in the future.

It is widely used as an agent to combat solid tumors including lung, colorectal, gastric, gynecologic, and other types of cancer. A novel chimeric PD1-NKG2D-41BB receptor enhances antitumor activity of NK92 cells against human lung cancer H1299 cells by triggering pyroptosis. Herein, we will provide an updated overview of the emerging endeavors for developing NK cell-based cancer immunotherapy from pre-clinical conceptual development, clinical grade expansion, and ongoing clinical development. The emergence of this technology provided a completely new framework for clinical-scale NK cell production by allowing for the genetic modifications and unlimited expansion to be performed at the pluripotent cell state. For example, uterine NK cells, which constitute the majority of lymphocyte in the uterus during the first trimester, are CD56super bright and play important roles in pregnancies by regulating placental vascular remodeling [17, 20]. Targeted drugs are the preferred recommendations for the systemic treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. 2016;1441:33346. Mol Immunol. A first-in-human clinical trial of CAR NK-92 cells in 3 patients with relapsed or refractory AML showed that CAR NK-92 can be infused at doses up to 5 billion cells per patient without causing significant adverse effects [149]. Recent studies revealed that subset of mature NK cells can elicit long-lived adaptive-like nature in the specific context of CMV infection [21]. GPC3 is Different from events required for T cell activation, NK cell activation is governed by the interaction of NK receptors with target cells, independent of antigen processing and presentation. Necrotic core even the name sounds creepy. One study showed that overnight co-incubation with a leukemia cell line CTV-1 or its lysate without cytokines was sufficient to prime potent NK cells in vitro cytotoxicity against otherwise NK-insensitive tumor cells but not normal hemopoietic cells [88]. Int J Cancer. 2012;16(3):56981. Cytotherapy. To circumvent these challenges, Bi- and tri-specific killer engagers, BiKEs and TriKEs, are in development as a complemental approach. Methods Mol Biol. Expression of IL-15 in NK cells results in rapid enrichment and selective cytotoxicity of gene-modified effectors that carry a tumor-specific antigen receptor. CAR-NK cells are known to be effective against hematological malignancies, and a growing number of preclinical findings indicate that they have An increasing number of in vitro and in vivo studies have examined the activity of CAR-NK cells against solid tumors, with most preclinical data being available Notably, certain tissues such as the mucosal barriers possess subsets of recently identified innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) that also share canonical markers of NK cells. Ditadi A, Sturgeon CM, Keller G. A view of human haematopoietic development from the Petri dish. In the xenograft models, NK cell infusion combined with intraperitoneal injection of the NRPbody significantly reduced tumor burden as compared to NK infusion combined with the non-cleavable control [90]. This method was advantageous in that it did not require magnetic cell sorting, feeder cells, or multiple cytokines, potentially lowering the cost of production. Bone marrow is considered to be the primary site of NK development. 2017;47(5):82033.

Clinical-grade generation of active NK cells from cord blood hematopoietic progenitor cells for immunotherapy using a closed-system culture process. Two biotechs aim to broaden the reach of cancer immunotherapy by applying gene editing tools to an emerging form of cell therapy through a wide-ranging J Hematother Stem Cell Res. Although lethal irradiation of feeder cells before use is required, for safety concern, the residual contamination of feeder cells should be assessed. 2012;61(9):145161. Recently, several groups demonstrated that mouse and human NK cells pre-activated with a cocktail of IL-12/15/18 had enhanced and sustained anti-tumor effector functions in vitro and in vivo after infusion [84,85,86]. There are numerous ongoing clinical trials exploring the safety and efficacy of NK-based therapy in combination with other modalities. NKAML: a pilot study to determine the safety and feasibility of haploidentical natural killer cell transplantation in childhood acute myeloid leukemia. Abel AM, et al. Front Immunol. Cookies policy. Clinical efficacy of this strategy has proven to be thus far be limited. As an alternative to CAR-T cell therapy, CAR-NK cell therapy not only circumvents these challenges but also presents additional major advantages: (i) the ability to use unlimited allogeneic NK source without concern of GVHD [6, 31, 32]; (ii) the potential to generate off-shelf product with NK cell line or iPSC-NK [37,38,39,40,41]; (iii) relatively shortened production time; iv) recognition and killing tumor cells through NK cell native receptors independent of the CAR engineering [42], less likely allowing disease escape through downregulation of the CAR antigens as shown with CAR-T cell therapy [37]. 2016;5(9):e1219007. WebCancer immunotherapy has achieved great success in the past few years. J Immunol Res. The safety and efficacy of allogeneic or autologous donor-derived NK cell-based therapy for treating hematological malignancies, such as AML, have been well established [5, 29, 148]. The combination of IL-2/IL-15/IL-21 can support up to eightfold expansion of NK cells [121]. 2016;5(4):e1119354. 2019;12(1):49. Clin Cancer Res. Wang W, et al. Immunity. Immunity. Int J Cancer. Masuyama et al. Chen X, et al. In vivo efficacy of umbilical cord blood stem cell-derived NK cells in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. However, CAR-T therapy has two major challenges: (i) requirement of a substantiate length of time to generate a therapeutic dose of autologous CAR-T cells which limits its feasibility to treat patients with rapidly progressing diseases; (ii) difficulty to obtain sufficient number of autologous T cells for CAR-T cell generation from heavily pre-treated and often lymphopenic cancer patients [37]. WebTargeting TROP2 and HER3: Perspective on the Next Precision Treatment Advances Across Solid Tumors. 2007;178(1):8594.
