Allelic variation analyzed in 330 normal individuals (45% African–American (top line), 55% Caucasian (bottom line)).

There is a Low Incidence of V/V in the Normal Population

• Patients with naturally occurring high affinity receptors for the Fc fragment havean improved outcome under Herceptin/Rituximab/Cetuximab treatment.

• Same holds true for treatment of multiple myeloma with Elotuzumab(Progression Free Survival 22.3 months vs. 9.8 months (presented at ASH 2015)

• IL-2 dependent, continuously growing NK cell line established from a non-Hodgkin lymphoma patient in 1992

(H. Klingemann)

• Highly cytotoxic to leukemia, lymphoma and melanomadue to lack of inhibitory KIR receptors

• Safety of infusion of irradiated NK-92 demonstrated in phase I clinical studies in cancer patients with advanced

Immuntherapien

Existence of an effective T-cell immuneresponse against cancer in humans

n Tumor-infiltrating T cells (TIL)are associated with betterprognosis in triple-negativebreast cancer

n Mutated tumor antigens andneo-peitopes can elicit highavidity, tumor-specific T-cellresponses

n T-cell based immunotherapyand possibly vaccinations arevery and promising newtreatment options for malignantdiseases.
