The use of donor-derived CAR-NK cells is limited by CD8 T cell-mediated allorejection. Here, the authors describe a one-step approach, based on selective HLA knockdown and overexpression of PD-L1, that allows allogeneic modified CAR-NK cells to escape rejection by the host immune system while exhibiting enhanced anti-tumor activity and safety in preclinical mouse models.
