Pratik Multani

Compounds that either produce a higher proportion or greater absolute number of phenotypically identified naive, stem cell memory, central memory T cells, adaptive NK cells, and type I NKT cells are identified. Compositions and methods for modulating immune cells including T, NK, and NKT cells for adoptive cell therapies, such as those providing improvements in one or more therapeutic outcomes, are provided.

Compositions and methods for immune cell modulation in adoptive immunotherapies

The invention provides improved methods for cell therapy. In particular, the invention provides therapeutic compositions of enhanced hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells having improved engraftment and homing properties, and methods of making the therapeutic compositions. The invention further provides methods of improving the efficacy of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell transplantation including transplanting the therapeutic composition to subjects in need of hematopoietic system reconstitution.

Enhanced stem cell composition

The invention provides compositions comprising stem and/or progenitor cells that have been treated to enhance the therapeutic properties of the cells for treating ischemia. In particular, the present invention relates to the use of stem and/or progenitor cells having enhanced therapeutic properties to treat an ischemic tissue, a tissue damaged by ischemia, or at least one symptom associated with an ischemic tissue or a tissue damaged by ischemia.

Methods of treating ischemia

The invention provides cell potency assays for measuring, determining, identifying, confirming, or validating the therapeutic potential of a cell population. Cell potency assays may be performed with various types of cells, including stem or progenitor cells, such as, for example, hematopoietic stem or progenitor cells. Cell potency assays may also be performed on stem or progenitor cells that have been treated with one or more agents to enhance therapeutic potential. Hematopoietic cells having therapeutic potential are useful in downstream clinical applications for increasing engraftment, reconstitution, homing, and proliferation in vivo.
