Targeting disialoganglioside (GD2) on neuroblastoma (NB) with T cells expressing a first-generation chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) was safe, but the had poor expansion and long-term persistence. We developed third-generation GD2-CAR (GD2-CAR3) hypothesized that GD2-CAR3 (CARTs) would be safe effective. This phase 1 study enrolled relapsed or refractory NB patients in three cohorts. Cohort received CART alone, cohort 2 CARTs plus cyclophosphamide fludarabine (Cy/Flu), 3 treated CARTs,...

Successful adoptive T-cell immunotherapy of solid tumors will require improved expansion and cytotoxicity tumor-directed T cells within tumors. Providing recombinant or transgenic cytokines may produce the desired benefits but is associated with significant toxicities, constraining clinical use. To circumvent this limitation, we constructed a constitutively signaling cytokine receptor, C7R, which potently triggers IL7 axis unresponsive to extracellular cytokine. This strategy augments...

The successful immunotherapy of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been hampered because most potential antigenic targets are shared with normal hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), increasing the risk sustained and severe toxicity following treatment. C-type lectin-like molecule 1 (CLL-1) is a membrane glycoprotein expressed by >80% AML but absent on HSCs. Here we describe development evaluation CLL-1-specific chimeric antigen receptor T (CLL-1.CAR-Ts) demonstrate their specific activity against...

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has risk toxicity to normal cells. CD7 is expressed by leukemic blasts and malignant progenitor cells approximately 30% AML patients but absent on erythroid Since expression also linked with chemoresistance poor outcomes, targeting this may be beneficial subset patients. Here, we show that a CD7-directed CAR in gene-edited (CD7KO) effectively eliminates CD7+ lines, primary AML, colony-forming...

Purpose: The multiple mechanisms used by solid tumors to suppress tumor-specific immune responses are a major barrier the success of adoptively transferred T cells. As viruses induce potent innate and adaptive responses, we hypothesized that immunogenicity could be harnessed for treatment if virus-specific cells (VST) were modified with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR). We tested this hypothesis using VZV-specific (VZVST) expressing CAR GD2, disialoganglioside expressed on neuroblastoma...

Nucleophosmin1 (NPM1) mutations are the most frequently detected gene in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and considered a favorable prognostic factor. We retrospectively analyzed prognosis of 605 Japanese patients with de novo AML, including 174 NPM1-mutated AML. Although AML showed high remission rate, this was not factor for overall survival (OS); is contrary to generally accepted guidelines. Comprehensive mutation analysis that codon R882 DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3AR882 mutations) were...

Background C-type lectin-like molecule 1 (CLL-1) is highly expressed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) but absent primitive hematopoietic progenitors, making it an attractive target for a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. Here, we optimized our CLL-1 CAR anti-leukemic activity mouse xenograft models of aggressive AML. Methods First, the using different spacer, transmembrane and costimulatory sequences. We used second retroviral vector to coexpress transgenic IL15. measured...

Although allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an alternative treatment for relapsed or refractory (R/R) acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), little known regarding the utility of HCT R/R therapy-related APL (t-APL). We retrospectively analyzed data 144 patients with (t-APL, n = 20 and de novo APL, 124) who received a first between 2008 2020. found no significant differences in survival t-APL groups. The 3-year overall (OS) rates were 53.8% group 52.4% group. However, as...

Abstract The outcome of therapy with chimeric Ag receptor (CAR)-modified T cells is strongly influenced by the subset origin infused cells. However, because polyclonally activated acquire a largely CD45RO+CCR7− effector memory phenotype after expansion, regardless origin, it impossible to know which subsets contribute final cell product. To determine contribution naive cell, stem central and terminally differentiated populations CD3 CD28–activated CAR-modified that we use for therapy,...

As the prognosis of relapsed/refractory (R/R) acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) remains poor, novel treatment strategies are urgently needed. Clinical trials have shown that chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells for AML more challenging than those targeting CD19 in B-cell malignancies. We recently developed piggyBac-modified ligand-based CAR-T target CD116/CD131 complexes, also known as GM-CSF (GMR), juvenile myelomonocytic leukaemia. This study therefore aimed to develop a therapeutic method...

In order to elucidate the mechanism of hyperuricemia in hematologic malignancies, we have retrospectively investigated uric acid metabolism 418 chemotherapy-naïve patients with malignancies. Hyperuricemia was present 116 (27.8%) these on initial hospitalization. Among 65 hyperuricemic analyzed metabolism, six (9.2%) had overproduction type, 52 (80.0%) underexcretion and seven (10.8%) a mixed type. Fourteen (3.3%) developed tumor lysis syndrome patients.

The efficacy of T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) for solid tumors has been limited by insufficient CAR cell expansion and persistence. use virus-specific (VSTs) as carriers CARs may overcome this limitation since CAR-VSTs can be boosted viral vaccines or oncolytic viruses. However, there is understanding the optimal combination endodomains their influence on native receptor (TCR) in VSTs. We therefore compared function GD2.CARs TCR zeta chain (ζ) alone combined with from...
