Current Perspectives on “Off-The-Shelf” Allogeneic NK and CAR-NK Cell Therapies

Natural killer cells (NK cells) are the first line of the innate immune defense system, primarily located in peripheral circulation and lymphoid tissues. They kill virally infected and malignant cells through a balancing play of inhibitory and stimulatory receptors. In pre-clinical investigational s...
