NCIt definition : A trispecific killer engager (TriKE) molecule containing an anti-cluster of differentiation
16 (CD16; FcgammaRIII) single-chain variable fragment (scFv) to engage natural killer
(NK) cells, an anti-CD33 scFv to engage myeloid cells and a human modified interleukin-15
(IL-15) linker, that links the two scFv, with potential immunomodulating and antineoplastic
activities against CD33-expressing tumor cells. Upon administration of the CD16/IL15/CD33
TriKE OXS-3550, the simultaneous binding to CD16 on NK cells and CD33 on tumor cells
will induce NK cell cytotoxicity specifically against CD33-expressing tumor cells.
The cytokine IL-15 linker promotes NK cell proliferation, activity, survival and expansion.
CD33 is expressed on normal non-pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells and is overexpressed
on myeloid leukemia cells.;
