Abstract Programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1)-mediated immunosuppression has been proposed to contribute the limited clinical efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells in solid tumors. We generated PD-1 and (TCR) deficient mesothelin-specific CAR-T (MPTK-CAR-T) using CRISPR-Cas9 technology evaluated them a dose-escalation study. A total 15 patients received one or more infusions MPTK-CAR-T without prior lymphodepletion. No dose-limiting toxicity unexpected adverse events were...

Although chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy development for B-cell malignancies has made significant progress in the last decade, broadening success to treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) been limited. We conducted two clinical trials verify safety and efficacy of GC027, an "off-the-shelf" allogeneic CAR-T product targeting antigen, CD7. Here, we report 2 patients as case reports with relapsed/refractory T-ALL who were treated GC027.Both reported here open-label...

Abstract To improve clinical outcomes and shorten the vein-to-vein time of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells, we developed FasT CAR-T (F-CAR-T) next-day manufacturing platform. We report preclinical first-in-human studies evaluating safety, feasibility, preliminary efficacy CD19 F-CAR-T in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). cells demonstrated excellent proliferation with a younger cellular phenotype, less exhaustion, more effective tumor elimination compared to conventional...

Introduction There is no curative treatment available for patients with chemotherapy relapsed or refractory CD19+ B cells-derived acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (r/r B-ALL). Although CD19-targeting second-generation (2nd-G) chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-modified T cells carrying CD28 4-1BB domains have demonstrated potency in advanced B-ALL, these 2 signalling endow CAR-T different and complementary functional properties. Preclinical results shown that third-generation (3rd-G) combining...

Background Regulating T-cell metabolism is crucial for their anticancer activity. Therefore, understanding the function and of human tumor-infiltrating T cells broad interest clinical importance. Methods CD3 + CD45 were sorted from adjacent area or tumor core hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), then clusters heterogeneity further interrogated by single-cell transcriptomic profiling. 118 surgical samples patients with HCC histologically examined infiltration CD8 in tissue. Results Single-cell...

Purpose/background Microsatellite instability (MSI) status is a significant biomarker for the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors, 5-fluorouracil-based adjuvant chemotherapy, and prognosis in colorectal carcinoma (CRC). This study investigated predictive value of intratumoral-metabolic heterogeneity (IMH) conventional metabolic parameters derived from 18 F-FDG PET/CT MSI patients with stage I–III CRC. Methods was retrospective analysis 152 CRC pathologically proven who underwent...

Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor-engineered T (CAR-T) cells have shown promising efficacy in patients with relapsed/refractory B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL). However, challenges remain including long manufacturing processes that need to be overcome. We presented the CD19-targeting CAR-T product GC007F manufactured next-day (FasTCAR-T cells) and administered R/R B-ALL. A total of 21 over 14 years age CD19 + B-ALL were screened, enrolled infused a single infusion at three...

Abstract Cerebral malaria is the most serious complication of infection, with 26% surviving children having neurological sequelae, which may be caused by neuron damage, but mechanism not clear. Ferroptosis has been reported to play an important role in damage several nervous system diseases. However, occurrence ferroptosis experimental cerebral (ECM) pathogenesis still unknown. In this study, we firstly detected increased levels malondialdehyde (MDA) and iron, are indicators ferroptosis,...

Abstract Introduction: Patients with T cell malignancies usually have high relapse and mortality rates. Due to shared common surface antigen potential contamination by malignant cells, development of CAR-T therapies for r/r T-ALL has been lagged, regardless the costly lengthy process autologous production. To overcome these challenges, we developed a universal platform (TruUCAR™) that displayed superior expansion in patients without using preconditioning biologics such as αCD52 antibody....

A dendritic cell (DC)-based vaccine strategy could reduce the risk of recurrence and improve survival breast cancer patients. However, while therapy-induced apoptosis hepatocellular colorectal carcinoma cells can enhance maturation antigen presentation DCs, whether this effect occurs in is currently unknown. In present study, we investigated doxorubicin (ADM)-induced apoptotic MCF-7 on activation DCs. ADM-induced effectively induce immature DC (iDC) maturation. The mean fluorescence...

Abstract Rationale: Relapse is the main cause of death after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Unfortunately, there are no efficient methods to prevent relapse allo-HSCT. Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells have achieved favorable outcomes in treatment refractory/relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) because their strong anti-leukemia activity. However, it unclear whether CAR-T constructed using viral systems can be used as preventive infusions...
