Tumor immunoevasion by the conversion of effector NK cells into type 1 innate lymphoid cells. Targeting immunosuppressive components in the TME to re-invigorate NK functions is also under investigation. 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]. 2014;32(4):102131. Fujisaki H, et al. A combinational therapy of EGFR-CAR NK cells and oncolytic herpes simplex virus 1 for breast cancer brain metastases. The other important feature of iPSC-NK cell technology is the ability to manipulate the differentiation strategy, thus shaping the phenotype and functionality of the resulting product. Front Immunol. However, NK cell therapy directed against solid tumors is still in early development. 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 The difficulty to obtain large quantity of NK cells, to expand to clinical scale ex vivo, and to sustain in vivo survival and activity of infused NK cells has encumbered the progress. Despite the immunosuppressive environment of solid tumors, NK cell activity/infiltration has been correlated with improved prognoses in humans. 2014;20(4):46373. 2002;100(4):126573. J 2000;356(9244):17959. Moreover, highly cytotoxic NK cells derived using such method are capable of producing endogenous cytokines that improve their survival, proliferation, and function [132]. Cytometry B Clin Cytom. Ex vivo-expanded natural killer cells demonstrate robust proliferation in vivo in high-risk relapsed multiple myeloma patients. Additional markers such as lack of c-kit can be used to distinguish human NK (c-kit-) from ILC3s (c-kit+) [14]. Leong JW, et al. ErbB2/HER2-specific NK cells for targeted therapy of glioblastoma.

Clinical efficacy of this strategy has proven to be thus far be limited. Cancer Res. Cytokine-free directed differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells efficiently produces hemogenic endothelium with lymphoid potential. This successful immunotherapy has led to a more complete view of cancer that now considers not only the cancer cells to be targeted and destroyed but also the immune environment of the cancer cells. Chabannon C, et al. 2016; 8(357): p. 357ra123. demonstrated a more than 500-fold NK expansion with over 98% purity within 2weeks and a greater than 5000-fold NK expansion over a 3-week period [147]. 2013;73(6):177786. Most NK cells in the blood are CD56dim, whereas the CD56bright subset only represents less than 15% of total circulating NK cells [17]. New research by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center molecular biologist Ami Yamamoto in the Cheung Lab, shows that a tumors necrotic core a mass of dying and dead cells previously thought to be inconsequential or perhaps even It was proposed that the cytokine pre-activated NK cells were memory-like with an enhanced response to cytokine or activating receptor re-stimulation weeks or months after the initial pre-activation [84]. Hassan R, Ho M. Mesothelin targeted cancer immunotherapy. WebCancer immunotherapy has achieved great success in the past few years. Blood.
