Abstract
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) remains a prominent barrier to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantion as the leading cause of nonrelapse mortality and significant morbidity. Tremendous progress has been achieved in both the understanding of pathophysiology and the development of new therapies for cGvHD. Although our field has historically approached treatment from an empiric position, research performed at the bedside and bench has elucidated some of the complex pathophysiology of cGvHD. From the clinical perspective, there is significant variability of disease manifestations between individual patients, pointing to diverse biological underpinnings. Capitalizing on progress made to date, the field is now focused on establishing personalized approaches to treatment. The intent of this article is to concisely review recent knowledge gained and formulate a path toward patient-specific cGvHD therapy.

Abstract
Natural killer (NK) cell infiltration of solid tumours is associated with better outcomes, placing augmentation of NK cell abundance in tumours as an attractive immunotherapeutic approach. The unique ability of NK cells to target cancer cells without antigen specificity increases their versatility and applicability as an immunotherapeutic tool. However, successful utilisation of NK cell-based therapies in solid tumours is still at an early stage. Obesity has become a global health epidemic, and the prevalence of obesity-associated cancers has significantly increased. Obesity-associated malignancies provide a unique challenge for the successful application of cell-based immunotherapies including NK cell-based therapies because significant numbers of NK and T cells are recruited to the visceral adipose tissue at the expense of successful tumour infiltration and eradication. As such, immunotherapy efficacy has been disappointing for obesity-associated malignancies such as oesophageal and gastric adenocarcinoma. Therefore, immunotherapies for obesity-associated cancers warrant our further attention. Indeed, it is becoming ever more obvious that more innovative approaches are needed to re-invigorate anti-tumour immunity and overcome immune exclusion in such tumours. In this review, we briefly summarise the dysfunctionality of NK cells in obesity-associated cancer. We outline the NK cell-based immunotherapeutic approaches which hold promise as effective treatments in this disease space, including CAR-NK cells. Furthermore, we suggest future avenues which possess the potential to transform immunotherapy and specifically NK cell therapy efficacy for obesity-associated cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW A critical common step for blood-based ex-vivo gene and immune effector cell (IEC) therapies is the collection of target cells for further processing and manufacturing, often accomplished through a leukapheresis procedure to collect mononuclear cells (MNCs). The purpose of this review is to describe strategies to optimize the apheresis product cell yield and purity for gene and IEC therapies. Relevant data from the conventional bone marrow transplant literature is described where applicable. RECENT FINDINGS Product yield is affected by three main factors: the peripheral blood concentration of the target cell, optimized by mobilizing agents, donor interventions or donor selection; the volume of peripheral blood processed, tailored to the desired product yield using prediction algorithms; and target cell collection efficiency, optimized by a variety of device and donor-specific considerations. Factors affecting product purity include characteristics of the donor, mobilizing agent, device, and device settings. SUMMARY Strategies to optimize product yield and purity for gene and IEC therapies are important to consider because of loss of target cell numbers or function with downstream steps and detrimental effects of nontarget cells on further manufacturing and patient outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hematopoietic progenitor cell (HPC) and immune effector cell (IEC) therapies often require high doses of mononuclear cells (MNCs), whether CD34+ cells, lymphocytes, or monocytes. Cells for IEC can be sourced from HPC products. We thus examined potentially modifiable variables affecting collection efficiencies (CEs) of MNC subsets in HPC collection and also of the typically undesired cell types of platelets, granulocytes, and red cells, which hinder downstream processing. Finally, we sought to confirm previously indeterminate studies of the effect of an adjusted collect flow rate (CFR) on CD34+ CE. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We performed univariate and multivariate regression analyses of all 135 National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) HPC collections in 2019 and compared these fixed CFR procedures to previous NMDP collections using adjusted CFRs. RESULTS Target cell CEs decreased with increasing peripheral blood (PB) concentration and were associated with different cell type locations within the MNC layer. CEs of undesired cell types varied with standard procedural parameters (inlet flow rate, whole blood processed, etc.). Interestingly, some CEs increased with preapheresis hematocrit. Finally, adjusting the CFR by PB MNC count improved MNC CE but not CD34+ CE. CONCLUSION Correlation of target cell CEs with their PB concentration and different cell type locations by depth within the MNC layer indicates the importance of investigating the compensatory fine-tuning of procedure variables to improve CE. Correlation of CEs with PB hematocrit, and CFR adjustment by a modified PB MNC and/or PB CD34 algorithm should be further explored. Adjusting standard procedural parameters may reduce product contamination.

Abstract
Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation is a curative approach in various malignant and non-malignant disorders. The majority of adult transplants in the current era are performed using mobilized stem cells, harvested from the peripheral blood by leukapheresis. Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) collections are designed to target a dose of stem cells that will result in safe engraftment and hematopoietic recovery; however, 99 % of the cells contained in a PBSC graft are not stem cells and a growing number of studies attempt to characterize the associations between graft composition and transplant outcomes. A better understanding of the impact of the quantity and quality of various cell types in PBSC grafts may lead to development of novel collection strategies or improved donor selection algorithms. Here we review relevant findings from recent studies in this area.

Abstract
Simple Summary Natural Killer cells have shown promise to treat different malignancies. Several methods have been described to obtain fully activated NK cells for clinical use. Here, we use different cell culture media and different artificial antigen presenting cells to optimize a GMP compliant manufacturing method to obtain activated and expanded NK cells suitable for clinical use. Abstract Natural killer (NK) cells represent promising tools for cancer immunotherapy. We report the optimization of an NK cell activation–expansion process and its validation on clinical-scale. Methods: RPMI-1640, stem cell growth medium (SCGM), NK MACS and TexMACS were used as culture mediums. Activated and expanded NK cells (NKAE) were obtained by coculturing total peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) or CD45RA+ cells with irradiated K562mbIL15-41BBL or K562mbIL21-41BBL. Fold increase, NK cell purity, activation status, cytotoxicity and transcriptome profile were analyzed. Clinical-grade NKAE cells were manufactured in CliniMACS Prodigy. Results: NK MACS and TexMACs achieved the highest NK cell purity and lowest T cell contamination. Obtaining NKAE cells from CD45RA+ cells was feasible although PBMC yielded higher total cell numbers and NK cell purity than CD45RA+ cells. The highest fold expansion and NK purity were achieved by using PBMC and K562mbIL21-41BBL cells. However, no differences in activation and cytotoxicity were found when using either NK cell source or activating cell line. Transcriptome profile showed to be different between basal NK cells and NKAE cells expanded with K562mbIL21-41BBL or K562mbIL15-41BBL. Clinical-grade manufactured NKAE cells complied with the specifications from the Spanish Regulatory Agency. Conclusions: GMP-grade NK cells for clinical use can be obtained by using different starting cells and aAPC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells in the treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and to elucidate the mechanism of NK cells therapy. METHODS Twenty-one patients with primary HCC treated with allogeneic NK cells at the Fifth Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital were followed up for 1 year. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from patient-related donors and cultured in vitro for 15 days and infused to the patients in two consecutive days. Clinical data and laboratory data were collected and analyzed, including survival, clinical features, imaging changes, hematology, immunology, and biochemical indicators to evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic NK cell therapy. The changes of peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets after treatment were also analyzed to explore the possible anti-tumor mechanisms. RESULTS (1) Of the 21 patients with primary HCC, 11 patients were treated once, 5 patients were treated twice, and 5 patients were treated 3 times. After allogeneic NK cells infusion, 10 patients had fever, 1 patient had slight hepatalgia and 1 patient had slight headache, no other adverse events occurred including acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). They resolved spontaneously within 8 hours without other treatment. (2) The total disease control rate was 76.2% during one-year follow-up. Among them, the patients with Barcelona clinic liver cancer (BCLC) stage A had a disease control rate of 100%, stable disease (SD) in 10 cases; BCLC stage B patients had a disease control rate of 60%, partial response (PR) in 1 case, and SD 2 in cases; BCLC stage C patients had a disease control rate of 50%, complete response (CR) in 1 case, and 2 cases of PR. (3) The frequencies of NK cells and CD8+ T cells in peripheral blood were significantly lower than that before at 24 hours after treatment, and the frequencies of CD4+ T cells and CD4/CD8 were significantly higher than the baseline. CONCLUSION Allogeneic NK cells have good safety and efficacy in the treatment of primary HCC. The anti-tumor effect of the allogeneic NK cells may play an important role in the activation of the patient's natural immune system and delay disease progression, suggesting that allogeneic NK cells combined with sorafenib may be a very effective treatment for advanced HCC, and further large-sample multicenter randomized controlled clinical trials are needed to validate this result.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) is the only curative treatment for multiple hematologic malignancies and non-malignant hematological diseases. However, graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD), one of the main complications after allo-HSCT, remains the major reason for morbidity and non-relapse mortality. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) play a non-redundant role in the pathophysiology of GVHD. In this review, we will summarize previously published data regarding the role of ILCs in the pathogenesis of GVHD.

The case for plerixafor to replace filgrastim as the optimal agent to mobilize peripheral blood donors for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Exp Hematol 2018; 70:1-9.

Abstract
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-stimulated peripheral blood progenitor cells (G-PBs) from either a related or unrelated donor continue to be the preferred donor source for most allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Recently, the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation has recommended marrow instead of G-PBs as an unrelated graft source due to its lower rate of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). However, the use of marrow is limited by both clinical considerations (slower rate of engraftment and increased donor morbidity) and logistical considerations (use of operating room resources and increased physician utilization), so this recommendation has not been widely adopted. An optimal donor source would include the rapid engraftment characteristic and the low donor morbidity associated with G-PBs and a rate of cGVHD similar to or lower than that of marrow. Recent data suggest that plerixafor mobilized PBs (P-PBs) have the rapid engraftment characteristics of G-PBs in allogeneic HCT with less cGVHD. The biologic mechanism of the lower rate of cGVHD appears to be through mobilization of regulator natural killer cells and plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursors that are associated with lower acute and chronic GVHD compared with G-PBs and rapid engraftment characterized by rapid myeloid-repopulating capacity. We suggest that, based on the experience of the two Phase II clinical trials and the unique biology of plerixafor-mobilized donor product, it should be evaluated in Phase III trials as an approach to replacing G-CSF mobilization for allogeneic HCT.
