Abstract: Described herein are methods of treating cancer in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject a pharmaceutical composition comprising 1-(4-(benzylamino)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-yl)-2-methyl-1H-indole-4-carboxamide, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, whereby the subject experiences a therapeutic response.

Abstract: Provided for herein in several embodiments are immune cell-based compositions comprising BCMA-directed chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). In several embodiments, the immune-cell based compositions also target an additional tumor marker and/or an additional epitope of BCMA. In several embodiments, the BCMA-directed CAR is expressed in a Natural Killer cell. In several embodiments, combinations of BCMA-CAR-expressing NK cells are administered in conjunction with, for example CAR-expressing NK cells and/or CAR-expressing T cells that are directed to an additional cancer marker and/or an additional epitope of BCMA. Also provided for herein are methods and uses of the chimeric antigen receptors in immunotherapy.
