The role of early natural killer cell adoptive infusion before engraftment in protecting against human herpesvirus<scp>‐6B</scp> encephalitis after naïve <scp>T</scp>‐cell‐depleted allogeneic stem cell transplantation

Abstract

In this clinical study, we show that early adoptive NK cell infusion after a 45RA⁺ TCD allo-HSCT graft is safe and can prevent HHV-6B encephalitis. We recommend infusing adoptive NK cells after allo-HSCT using CD45RA⁺ TCD grafts.
