Current progress in NK cell biology and NK cell-based cancer immunotherapy

Abstract A better understanding of the complex interactions between the immune system and tumour cells from different origins has opened the possibility to design novel procedures of antitumoral immunotherapy. One of these novel approaches is based on the use of autologous or allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells to treat cancer. In the last decade, different strategies to activate NK cells and their use in adoptive NK cell-based therapy have been established. Although NK cells...

Less is more: reducing the number of administered chimeric antigen receptor T cells in a mouse model using a mathematically guided approach

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy is a novel approved treatment for hematological malignancies, still under development for solid tumors. Here, we use a rate equation-based mathematical model to discover regimens and schedules that maintain efficacy while potentially reducing toxicity by decreasing the amount of CAR-T infused. Tested on an in vivo murine model of spontaneous breast cancer, we show that our mathematical model accurately recapitulates in...
