Pooled NK cells from umbilical cord blood associated with antibodies and their uses for the treatment of disease
The invention relates to the field of cell therapy, particularly NK cell mediated therapy associated with antibodies. The present invention is directed to methods and compositions for increasing the efficiency of therapeutic natural killer cells (NK cells) and/or antibodies, wherein said methods or compositions comprise the use of pooled NK cells from umbilical cord blood units (UCBs), preferably alloreactive NK cells, in combination with a therapeutic antibody in order to enhance the efficiency of the treatment in human subjects, in particularly through an increase in antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) mechanism. The present invention relates to said composition as a pharmaceutical composition, preferably for its use for the treatment of a disease in a human subject in need thereof, preferably wherein said disease is a cancer, infectious or immune disease. Finally, the present invention is also directed to a method of treatment of a disease in a human subject in need thereof, comprising the administering to said subject said pooled NK cells from UCBs, preferably alloreactive, in combination with a therapeutic antibody which can be bound to said NK cells.
Antigen binding receptors specific for mutated Fc domains
The present invention generally relates to antigen binding receptors capable of specific binding to mutated Fc domains with reduced Fc receptor binding and T cells expressing these antigen binding receptors. More precisely, the present invention relates to T cells, transfected/transduced with an antigen binding receptor which is recruited by specifically binding to/interacting with the mutated Fc domain of therapeutic antibodies. Furthermore, the invention relates to a kit comprising the T cells of the invention and/or nucleic acid molecules, vectors expressing antigen binding receptors of the present invention and (a) tumor targeting antibody/antibodies comprising a mutated Fc domain. The invention also provides the production and use of T cells in a method for the treatment of particular diseases in conjunction with tumor-specific antibodies as well as pharmaceutical compositions/medicaments comprising T cells and/or therapeutic antibodies, wherein T cells are to be administered in combination with therapeutic-tumor targeting antibody/antibodies comprising a mutated Fc domain with reduced Fc receptor binding.
BISPECIFIC OR-GATE CHIMERIC ANTIGEN RECEPTOR RESPONSIVE TO CD20 and CD19
A CD19-OR-CD20 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) protein construct is provided. Also provided are nucleic acids encoding the CD19-OR-CD20 CAR; and methods of use, e.g. in the treatment of B cell malignancies. The CD19-OR-CD20 CAR of the invention is a bispecific CAR that can trigger T-cell activation upon detection of either CD19 or CD20 (or both). It is a single molecule that confers two-input recognition capability upon human T cells engineered to stably express this CAR.
