Abstract
Clinical application of autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells is complicated by limited targeting of cancer types, as well as the time-consuming and costly manufacturing process. We develop CD70-targeted, induced pluripotent stem cell-derived CAR-natural killer (NK) (70CAR-iNK) cells as an approach for universal immune cell therapy. Besides the CD70-targeted CAR molecule, 70CAR-iNK cells are modified with CD70 gene knockout, a high-affinity non-cleavable CD16 (hnCD16), and an interleukin (IL)-15 receptor α/IL-15 fusion protein (IL15RF). Multi-gene-edited 70CAR-iNK cells exhibit robust cytotoxicity against a wide range of tumors. In vivo xenograft models further demonstrate their potency in effectively targeting lymphoma and renal cancers. Furthermore, we find that recipient alloreactive T cells express high levels of CD70 and can be eliminated by 70CAR-iNK cells, leading to improved survival and persistence of iNK cells. With the capability of tumor targeting and the potential to eliminate alloreactive T cells, 70CAR-iNK cells are potent candidates for next-generation universal immune cell therapy.

期刊介绍:
Cell Reports Medicine is an esteemed open-access journal by Cell Press that publishes groundbreaking research in translational and clinical biomedical sciences, influencing human health and medicine.
Our journal ensures wide visibility and accessibility, reaching scientists and clinicians across various medical disciplines. We publish original research that spans from intriguing human biology concepts to all aspects of clinical work. We encourage submissions that introduce innovative ideas, forging new paths in clinical research and practice. We also welcome studies that provide vital information, enhancing our understanding of current standards of care in diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. This encompasses translational studies, clinical trials (including long-term follow-ups), genomics, biomarker discovery, and technological advancements that contribute to diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare. Additionally, studies based on vertebrate model organisms are within the scope of the journal, as long as they directly relate to human health and disease.
