However, a significant challenge is the extensive polymorphism of Human Leukocyte Antigen class I (HLA-I) molecules, the targets of CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells. Despite this, HLA supertypes have been defined as a subset of HLA-I molecules sharing similar peptide motif preferences that may present overlapping peptide repertoires.

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from donors expressing one of these HLA-B44 supertype molecules were used to generate CD8<sup>+</sup> T-cell lines against the NS1<sub>195-203</sub> peptide and assess its immunogenicity via intracellular cytokine staining assay.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The structures predicted with TFold and AlphaFold2 of the NS1<sub>195-203</sub> peptide in complex with the HLA-B44 allomorphs were overall similar, with some notable differences at the peptide P9-Trp.

Their innate cytotoxicity against tumor cells, and reduced risk of causing transplantation or toxicity issues in patients, makes them a valuable option for exploration in allogeneic adoptive cell immunotherapies. However, sourcing NK cells from peripheral blood poses challenges in terms of scalability, consistency and variability. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are emerging as a platform to create specific cells with highly controlled processes, allowing for a common cell source for cell therapies and offering a promising inexhaustible source of genetically modifiable NK cells. This review highlights recent developments in the field of generating iPSC-derived NK cells in defined culture systems, and advancements in genetic modification to improve iPSC-NK cell therapy. We further discuss the development of iPSC banks and examine the potential of these cells in next-generation immunotherapies. Finally, we summarise the improvements in cancer targeting, expansion, persistence and cytotoxic functionality of iPSC-derived NK (iNK) cells both <i>in vitro</i> and <i>in vivo</i>, achieved through genetic modification of iPSCs, as well as recent related clinical trials.</p>","PeriodicalId":152,"journal":{"name":"Clinical & Translational Immunology","volume":"14 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cti2.70045","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144598754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two hundred and thirty-four patients (78.0%) were male, and the median age was 45 years [interquartile range (IQR): 36–54]. At median follow-up of 43.6 months (IQR: 31.8–57.8), combination maintenance significantly improved PFS compared to single-drug maintenance [weighted hazard ratio (HR) 0.580, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.387–0.872, <i>P</i> = 0.009; E-value, 2.27]. Stratification analysis revealed enhanced efficacy of immunochemotherapy maintenance in patients without prior local treatment (HR 0.414, 95% CI 0.224–0.767, <i>P</i> = 0.005) or with elevated premaintenance Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) DNA levels (HR 0.063, 95% CI 0.007–0.548, <i>P</i> = 0.012). No significant difference in PFS was observed between the capecitabine and anti-PD-1 single-agent groups. Notably, combination therapy yielded significantly longer PFS than either single-drug regimen. The safety profile was similar between combination maintenance and single-drug groups.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Combined maintenance therapy with anti-PD-1 antibodies and capecitabine may be a feasible treatment strategy for mNPC patients.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":152,"journal":{"name":"Clinical & Translational Immunology","volume":"14 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cti2.70043","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144537071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
