NCIt definition : A population of ex-vivo human interleukin-21 (IL-21) expanded donor-derived human
leukocyte antigen (HLA) haploidentical natural killer (haploNK) cells, with potential
immunomodulating and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration in patients undergoing
HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation, the donor-derived haploidentical
IL-21-expanded NK cells target, lyse and destroy tumor cells. IL-21 promotes sustained
ex vivo proliferation of human NK cells and enhances its cytotoxic activity.;
