Abstract

The CoviNK project, coordinated by Martin Villalba (UMR U1183 Institute of Regenerative Medicine and Biotherapies (IMRB) - CHRU de Montpellier), proposes to use natural killer cells (NK) carrying an anti-spike mAb, for the treatment of COVID -19. The team will be based on an expanded NK (eNK) production protocol patented by Inserm, and on a new approach for stably loading monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) on the membrane of NK cells, currently being developed for the cancer therapy.
