摘要:
Provided are methods of making innate immune cell compositions containing gamma.delta (γδ) T cells and/or Natural Killer (NK) cells, and the resulting compositions and related products of manufacture and kits for use in cancer and infectious disease therapy. The methods provided herein permit tailoring of the relative amounts of gamma.delta (γδ) T cells and Natural Killer (NK) cells in the compositions, for cellular therapies against a wide variety of cancers and infectious diseases. The resulting compositions can further be used to generate compositions containing either NK cells alone or gamma.delta T cells alone, for immune cellular therapies. The compositions provided herein also can be genetically altered: the gamma delta T cells and Natural Killer cells are modified to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARS) or exogenous T cell receptors (TCRs), which can be used to target any cell surface molecule either directly or indirectly, e.g., a marker on a cancer cell or an infected cell.
