cord blood-derived expanded natural killer cells PNK-007

A population of allogeneic lytic natural killer (NK) cells derived from human umbilical cord blood (UCB), with potential cytotoxic activity. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are isolated from human UCB; this is followed by ex vivo differentiation into mature, highly lytic, NK cells, and expansion. Upon administration, the CB-derived expanded NK cells PNK-007 may lyse cancer cells.
