Modified NK-92 cells, and therapeutic and diagnostic uses thereof

Abstract

Modified natural killer 92 (NK-92) cells and their use in cancer therapy, in particular for the prevention or treatment of solid tumours such as sarcomas, carcinomas, melanoma and lymphoma, and non-solid tumours such as leukaemia and related disorders. Embodiments of the invention further relate to the use of the modified NK-92 cells for in vitro diagnosis, diagnostics and/or screening, methods for the preparation of a modified NK-92 that is specific for a target antigen of a target cell in a subject, and to an expression vector, comprising the nucleic acid sequences of an antigen-specific functional T cell receptor (TCR), CD3, CD4 and/or CD8.
