NK Vaccine
What is highly active NK cell therapy in cancer patients?
In highly active NK cell therapy, lymphocytes are collected from patients’ blood and among these lymphocytes, NK cells that play a role in initially attacking abnormal cells such as cancer cells are cultured and grown in large amounts, and their ability to kill cancer is further enhanced (activated). NK cells are then returned to patients’ bodies in order to strengthen their immunity.
Clinical benefits of highly active NK cell therapy
1. Effect in spreading throughout the body a large amount of activated NK cells and T cells that directly attack cancer cells
→ Cancer treatment, prevention of recurrence
2. Effect in rebuilding the strength of the whole body to fight cancer by enhancing patients’ immunity
→ Improvement of QOL (quality of life)
