  • Patent number: 12681020
    Abstract: A recombinant NK-92 cell has a constitutive active promotor that effects expression of native CD16, and most preferably homogenous CD16 158V. Further contemplated recombinant NK-92 cells also include a recombinant nucleic acid that encodes an intracellularly retained interleukin (e.g., IL-2 or er-IL-2), wherein the recombinant NK-92 cell will secrete no more than 5,000 pg/mL IL-2 into a culture medium. The recombinant NK-92 cells presented herein have a significantly improved signal-to-noise ratio and exhibit reduced non-ADCC cytotoxicity.

  • Publication number: 20260144819
    Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided for generating cytokine-induced memory-like (CIML) phenotypes in NK-92-derived cell lines including activated NK (aNK) and PD-L1 chimeric antigen receptor NK (PD-L1 t-haNK) cells. Brief exposure of the cells to interleukin-12, interleukin-18, and the interleukin-15 (or interleukin-15 superagonist N-803) induces durable interferon-gamma expression and a memory recall response that persists for at least a week after stimulation. The disclosure includes methods for manufacturing, irradiating, and cryopreserving CIML aNK and CIML t-haNK cell products that provide a standardized off-the-shelf therapy for the targeted treatment of cancers, including tumors that are initially resistant to NK-cell cytotoxicity.

  • Publication number: 20240042023
    Abstract: Chimeric antigen receptors with an antibody-binding domain are presented that are preferably expressed from a recombinant cell in a therapeutic cell, and particularly in an NK-92 cell or derivative thereof. Notably, such modified cells have multiple modes of cytotoxicity, improved on-target cell killing, decreased off-target cell killing, show significant expression of the recombinant CAR, and/or increased CAR-mediated cytotoxicity.

  • Patent number: 11221328
    Abstract: Detection of under-expression of selected genes in NK cells is used to confirm a hypoxic tumor microenvironment that is ordinarily suppressive with respect to ADCC and cytotoxic cell killing of NK cells. Most notably, while hypoxia is known to upregulate HIF-1? and genes under the control of HIF-1?, hypoxia in a tumor microenvironment led to under-expression of selected genes, including HIF-1?. Thus, gene expression analysis of certain genes on NK cells can be used to detect conditions in a tumor that would indicate use of haNK cells.
