Phase 1/2a Clinical Trial for the Evaluation of Safety and Efficacy of Allogeneic NK Cell ("SMT-NK") in Combination With Pembrolizumab for Patients With Gemcitabine-refractory Biliary Tract Cancer

The term of biliary tract cancer (BTC) or cholangiocarcinoma refers to all tumors that arise from the biliary tract or the biliary drainage system, including the gallbladder. According to the data from National Cancer Information Center in 2016, annual incidence of the cancer in Korea is 6,685 (13.1 per 100,000 population) which corresponds to about 2.9% of all cancers.
BTC is one of the most prognostic cancer with less than 30% of 5-year survival rate and the case with long-term survival can be possibly done with early detection of the cancer. However, most of BTC is found in advanced stages due to the difficulty of early detection, resulting in that the 5-year survival rate of the advanced BTC becomes less than 3%. More than 50% of the patients depends on Gemcitabine based chemotherapy but response rate of the chemotherapy remains around 30%. Thus, improving the survival rate with the standard chemotherapy is very limited and furthermore selection of second-line therapy is not easy. For this reason, development of an alternative therapeutic agent is urgently required.
NK (natural killer) cells are important cytotoxic innate immune cells that are involved in the elimination of cancer cells. Two main NK cell subsets have been defined on the basis of CD56 and CD16 expression: CD56^brightCD16- NK subset produces abundant cytokines including interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor-α, whereas CD56^dimCD16+ NK subpopulation has high cytolytic activity and releases the granules containing perforin and granzymes.
Various clinical studies have been conducted to treat cancers using NK cells worldwide including Korea and therapeutic clinical results are shown for various cancers. The clinical application of NK cells is carried out by culturing and activating the NK cells isolated from blood of either patient (autologous) or blood donor (allogeneic). Recently, NK cell therapy for cholangiocarcinoma has been successfully done (NCT03358849) with allogeneic NK cell, showing safety and potential efficacy.
Like T cells, a recent study with digestive cancer has shown that NK cells also express PD-1, especially with more number of PD-1 in cancer patients than in healthy individuals, suggesting that blocking PD-1 can be used as a potential strategy to increase the anticancer activity of NK cells. Therefore, combined therapy with the immune-check point such as pembrolizumab can be useful in elevating the anticancer activity of NK cells.

Phase 1 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety of Allogeneic NK Cell ("SMT-NK") Cell Therapy in Advanced Biliary Tract Cancer

Cholangiocarcinoma refers to bile duct cancer (bile duct cancer) and gallbladder cancer that develop in the gallbladder. According to the data from National Cancer Information Center in 2013, the incidence of cancer in Korea is 5,283, which corresponds to about 2.3% of all cancers and the 5-year survival rate is 30% And most of the long-term survival is due to early detection by screening, and advanced carcinoma is a refractory carcinoma with a 5-year survival rate of less than 5%. In addition to the standard anticancer drugs, alternative anticancer drugs and targeted therapies have been developed to provide a variety of treatment modalities. However, the development of cell therapy drugs for cancer, such as cancers, has not been developed in Korea. .
Natural killer cells (NK cells) are innate lymphocyte cells with cytotoxic activity. Unlike T cells and B cells, which have antigen-specific receptors, NK cells express various innate immunoreceptors on the cell surface, thereby enabling selective recognition of cancer cells And recognizes cancer cells, it is a cytotoxic cell that can immediately remove cancer cells without any other activation process. In addition, natural killer cells also interact with dendritic cells or T cells directly or indirectly to regulate the immune response, thereby inhibiting the development and metastasis of cancer cells and effectively removing cancer stem cells important for cancer recurrence It has many advantages in the development of anti-cancer immunotherapy.

[Investigation of sulfonamides and tetracyclines antibiotics in soils from various vegetable fields].

Article

作者: Wang, Ji-Yang ; Li, Ming-Yang ; Tai, Yi-Ping ; Liang, Wei-Ming ; Mo, Ce-Hui ; Zhao, Na ; Bao, Yan-Ping ; Li, Yan-Wen

The occurrence and distribution of 9 selected antibiotics, that involved with oxytetracycline (OTC), tetracycline (TC), chlortetracycline (CTC), sulfamethazine (SM2), sulfadiazine (SDZ), sulfamerazine (SMR), sulfameter, (SMT), sulfamethoxazole (SMZ) and sulfadimethoxine (SDM), were screened at 14 typical vegetable fields located in Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Huizhou, Dongguan regions,with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Data showed that almost all soil samples were unavoidably contaminated with antibiotics. The sum concentration of 3 tetracyclines (TCs) and 6 sulfonamides (SAs) in soils ranged from undetected to 242.6 microg/kg and 33.3 to 321.4 microg/kg respectively, while the medium concentrations were 84.8 microg/kg of tetracyclines and 121 microg/kg of sulfonamides. The individual detectable probability of the two groups of antibiotics ranged from 19.35% to 96.77% (TCs) and from 25.81% to 93.50% (SAs). TC, SMZ, SMT and SM2 were more abundant in soil among the selected antibiotics. The study also suggested that the total amount of both TCs and SAs in different vegetable fields ranked as hoggery vegetable field > non-pollution vegetable field > routine vegetable field > greenfood vegetable field, and there should exist some relationship between vegetable planting and antibiotics amount in soil which was related to different fertilization, irrigation and vegetable species. The concentrations of the selected antibiotics are comparable to those reported from the other countries in the world, but the detectable probability of the antibiotics in our study site is higher than that from the reference data. More attention should be paid to antibiotics pollution of soil in vegetable fields.

Article

作者: Yoshiaki Imamura ; Masaru Fukuda ; Hiroyasu Suga ; Takao Nakagawa ; Yukihiro Soga ; Norio Miyoshi ; Yoshizumi Deguchi ; Tadashi Suzuki

PURPOSE:

Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors were confirmed to correct the hypotension associated with septic shock, but the overall prognosis is often pessimistic. The histological findings failed to show any improvement. In fact, some patients even exhibited signs of exacerbation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of NOS inhibitors and catecholamines in dogs suffering from endotoxin shock. The histological changes produced by these agents were also evaluated.

METHODS:

Mongrel dogs were used under midazolam anesthesia. A PiCCO continuous cardiac output monitoring catheter was placed in the femoral artery, and a central venous monitoring catheter was placed in the external carotid artery.

RESULTS:

Endotoxin (0.5 mg/kg, i.v.) was administered to cause shock. After this shock state was observed, the NOS inhibitors and catecholamines raised the blood pressure, and norepinephrine (NA, 2 microg/kg/h) was found to be more potent than S-methylisothiourea (SMT, 20 microg/kg/h). The combined effects of SMT-NA or SMT-DOB were greater than those of NA or dobutamine (DOB) alone. The histological changes induced by endotoxin shock were not ameliorated by the administration of NOS inhibitors but instead appeared to be exacerbated to some degree.

CONCLUSION:

NOS inhibitors combined with cathecholamines were thus suggested to be able to reduce the cathecolamine dosage in patients suffering from septic shock; They are thus considered to be hemodynamically effective agents.

NK Cell Therapy Overview Natural Killer (NK) cell therapy is an innovative approach in immunotherapy that harnesses the power of NK cells, a vital component of the innate immune system. Unlike T cells, which require prior sensitization to target cancer cells, NK cells can recognize and kill abnormal cells without prior exposure. This unique ability makes NK cell therapy a promising option for treating various cancers, including hematologic malignancies like leukemia and lymphoma, as well as solid tumors. By isolating and activating NK cells from a patient's blood or using engineered NK cells from healthy donors, researchers aim to enhance the immune response against tumors, leading to improved patient outcomes. Recent advancements in genetic engineering, such as the introduction of chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) into NK cells, are further enhancing their specificity and efficacy against cancer cells. The clinical applications of NK cell therapy are expanding rapidly, supported by a growing body of research and early-phase clinical trials. These studies have shown promising results, demonstrating the ability of NK cell therapy to induce durable remissions in patients with refractory cancers. Furthermore, the off-the-shelf nature of certain NK cell therapies allows for quicker treatment deployment compared to traditional CAR-T cell therapies, which require a personalized approach. Challenges remain, including optimizing NK cell expansion, persistence, and overcoming the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. However, ongoing research into combination therapies, such as pairing NK cell therapy with checkpoint inhibitors or monoclonal antibodies, is expected to enhance the therapeutic potential of NK cells and provide new hope for cancer patients.
