  • Large-scale culture system of human CD4^+ helper/killer T cells for the application to adoptive tumour immunotherapy
    British Journal of Cancer, 1992
    Co-Authors: Y Nakamura, Y Tokuda, M Iwasawa, H Tsukamoto, M Kidokoro, N Kobayashi, S Kato, T Mitomi, S Habu, T Nishimura
    Abstract:

    A simple method for the rapid expansion of human CD4+ T cells with both helper and killer functions was established. CD4+ T cells separated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells using immunomagnetic beads were stimulated with immobilised OKT-3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) plus recombinant interleukin 2 (rIL-2) in 96 well culture plates. After 6 day-culture, the CD4+ T cells were restimulated by immobilised OKT-3 mAb for an additional 24 h, then inoculated into concentrated rotary-tissue culture bag and cultured for further 9 days. This procedure yielded a 3000-fold increase in cell number (about 3-5 x 10(9) per bag). Most of the cells (over 96%) continued to express CD4+ antigen and retained their capacity to produce IL-2. The activated CD4+ T cells showed marked cytotoxicity against Fc receptor positive tumour cells in the presence of OKT-3 mAb. Moreover, we succeeded in a specific targeting of the expanded CD4+ helper/killer T cells to c-erb B-2 positive tumour cells by means of anti-CD3 x anti-c-erb B-2 bispecific antibody. These results suggested that our established simple system will be available for the expansion of large number of CD4+ helper/killer T cells which may provide an efficient strategy for adoptive tumour immunotherapy.

  • OKT-3-based reconditioning regimen for early graft failure in HLA-non-identical stem cell transplants.
    British journal of haematology, 2000
    Co-Authors: P. G. Schlegel, Matthias Eyrich, Peter Bader, Rupert Handgretinger, Peter Lang, Dietrich Niethammer, T. Klingebiel
    Abstract:

    Primary non-engraftment or early rejection after transplantation of haematopoietic stem cells represent life-threatening complications of allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Management of early graft failure has been problematic, as the risk of fatal infectious complications increases with the time of pancytopenia and as a second transplant preceded by a conventional myeloablative conditioning regimen has been associated with high rates of cumulative organ toxicity. For paediatric patients with early graft failure following the transplantation of highly purified major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-disparate haematopoietic stem cells, we have evaluated an immunosuppressive OKT-3/methylprednisolone-based reconditioning regimen with low toxicity in preparation for a secondary transplant of purified haematopoietic stem cells from the same donor. This report presents the results from a 4-year pilot study including six patients with early graft failure. The results demonstrate that this antibody-based regimen can be used effectively to prepare patients for secondary transplantation. Successful engraftment after a second transplant procedure was achieved in five of these six high-risk patients. The median interval between first and second transplant was 27 d (range 22-51 d), and the median time for engraftment was 10 d (range 9-13 d). Chimaerism analysis of microsatellite regions by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) demonstrated complete donor chimaerism in four of these patients within the first month after secondary transplant and revealed mixed chimaerism in one patient who converted to complete chimaerism after T-cell add-back.
