The granted patent US12036241B2 outlines a novel composition that combines a population of lymphocytes with a Phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1) inhibitor. This composition is designed to enhance the therapeutic potential of specific subpopulations of lymphocytes by selectively inhibiting AKT-independent signaling pathways. The claims detail various benefits of this approach, including improved cell expansion, differentiation, survival rates, and overall therapeutic efficacy. The lymphocytes can be derived from various sources, including peripheral blood, bone marrow, and tumors, and may include T cells, NKT cells, and NK cells. The patent also specifies that the lymphocytes can be genetically modified to enhance their functionality, incorporating elements such as T Cell Receptors (TCRs) or Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs).

Additionally, the patent describes methods for modulating lymphocytes using the PDK1 inhibitor, which can lead to improved proliferation, cytotoxicity, and cytokine responses. The claims emphasize the potential for these modulated lymphocytes to be utilized in adoptive cell therapies, providing a framework for developing advanced immunotherapies. The PDK1 inhibitor mentioned, GSK2334470, is highlighted as a key component of the composition. Furthermore, the patent allows for the inclusion of various additives and organic solvents to enhance the therapeutic composition, indicating a comprehensive approach to optimizing lymphocyte-based treatments for various medical conditions, including autoimmune diseases and cancers.
