It uses biotechnology and biological agents to activate and expand immune cells collected from patients or healthy donors in vitro, and then reinfuse them back into the patient's body to stimulate and enhance the patient's own immune function, so as to achieve the purpose of treating tumors.

  • DNT cells exert cytotoxicity and antigen presentation functions through various natural mechanisms of the human body while releasing cytokines/chemokines and activating a broader immune response.
  • DNT cells have cytotoxic activity against a variety of tumors, and have good tumor killing effects in vivo and in vitro in AML, lymphoma, cervical cancer, lung cancer, liver cancer, gastric cancer and other blood or solid tumors; at the same time, DNT Cells also play important roles in immunomodulation, immunosuppression, and autoimmune diseases.

Description

一种体外大规模扩增富含Tscm和Tcm的双阴性T细胞的方法 技术领域
本发明属于细胞治疗技术领域,具体涉及一种体外大规模扩增富含Tscm和Tcm的双阴性T细胞的方法。
背景技术
过继免疫细胞治疗是一种新兴的、具有显著疗效的肿瘤治疗手段,是免疫抗癌的新型治疗方法。它是运用生物技术和生物制剂对从病人或健康捐赠者体内采集免疫细胞进行体外激活和扩增后回输到病人体内,用以激发、增强病人自身免疫功能,从而达到治疗肿瘤目的。
已有文献和临床数据报导,决定过继细胞免疫治疗持久性和抗肿瘤作用的关键因素与输入患者前的细胞记忆分化状态即Tscm细胞和Tcm(Central Memory T)细胞在细胞产品中的比例密切相关。根据最新研究的记忆T细胞分化模式,天然T细胞在抗原的刺激下首先分化成干细胞样记忆T细胞(Tscm),然后分化成中央记忆T细胞(Tcm),并且最后分化成效应记忆T细胞(Effector Memory T,Tem)细胞。Tscm细胞和Tcm细胞具有较强的干细胞样特性,使其保持一定的自我更新、分化和长久存活能力,且有较强的IFN-γ分泌能力,可在体内长时间存在,起到长效抗肿瘤作用。
双阴性T(Double Negative T,DNT)细胞是指外周血中正常存在的CD3+CD4-CD8-成熟T淋巴细胞亚群,约占外周血单个核细胞1-3%。DNT细胞表面表达CD3分子和αβ-或γδ-T细胞受体(T Cell Receptor,TCR),但不表达CD4和CD8分子,且对于恒定型自然杀伤T(invariant Nature Killer T,iNKT)细胞特异性αGalCer无反应,因此不同于常规的T细胞、NK细胞和NKT细胞。DNT细胞通过多种人体天然机制发挥细胞毒性、抗原呈递功能同时释放细胞因子/趋化因子,激活更广泛的免疫应答。已报导,DNT细胞对多种肿瘤具有细胞毒活性,在AML、淋巴瘤、宫颈癌、肺癌、肝癌、胃癌等多种血液或者实体肿瘤中都有较好的体内外杀瘤效果;同时,DNT细胞在免疫调节,免疫抑制以及自身免疫病方面也有重要的作用。DNT细胞杀死肿瘤细胞不受组织相容性复合物(Major Histocompatibility Complex,MHC)分子限制,经体外扩增的健康捐赠者来源的异体DNT细胞输注到患者体内后对正常细胞无杀伤毒性且不影响造血干细 胞的进一步分化,不引起移植物抗宿主病(Graft versus Host Disease,GvHD)),也没有宿主抗移植物(Host versus Graft,HvG)反应,这使其成为具备广泛应用前景的临床治疗肿瘤的候选药物。
DNT细胞的扩增最早是基于实验室科研用小规模扩增方法,其培养规模小且需要添加动物源血清,使其临床应用受到限制;随后开发的细胞体外扩增体系中虽去除了动物源产品,但仍需要添加自体血浆和/或AB血清和/或人血白蛋白且在全培养周期都需要添加可溶性的抗人CD3单克隆抗体作为激活剂,后者目前商业化GMP级产品均为鼠源(克隆号:OKT3),给产品的临床应用带来潜在安全风险。以往体外扩增的DNT细胞中Tscm细胞和Tcm细胞的比例也很低,在既往文献以及专利中也均未有涉及。
因此,本领域需要一种体外大规模扩增富含Tscm和Tcm细胞特征的双阴性T细胞的方法。

第10天细胞杀瘤活性结果显示,采用新工艺扩增获得的DNT细胞对MV411细胞的杀瘤活性显著高于旧工艺。
综上所述,新工艺优于旧工艺的的主要点在于:
1、添加的更适合DNT细胞生长的细胞因子及培养成分;
2、扩增阶段不使用鼠源可溶性抗人CD3抗体,减少鼠源成分残留,进一步提高产品安全性;
3、整个生产工艺中用商业来源成分明确的血清替代物(例如ICSR或KSR)替换健康捐赠者血浆以保证不同产品批间一致性;
4、培养获得富含Tscm和Tcm特征的DNT细胞,其具有更强的自我更新、分化和长久存活能力,可在体内长期存留,起到长效抗肿瘤作用。
