Abstract Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and other H3K27M-mutated diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs) are universally lethal paediatric tumours of the central nervous system 1 . We have previously shown that disialoganglioside GD2 is highly expressed on cells demonstrated promising preclinical efficacy GD2-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T 2 , providing rationale for a first-in-human phase I clinical trial (NCT04196413). Because CAR cell-induced brainstem inflammation can result...
Abstract Despite impressive progress, more than 50% of patients treated with CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR19) experience progressive disease. Ten 16 large B cell lymphoma (LBCL) disease after CAR19 treatment had absent or low CD19. Lower surface CD19 density pretreatment was associated To prevent relapse − lo disease, we tested a bispecific CAR targeting and/or CD22 (CD19-22.BB.z-CAR) in phase I clinical trial ( NCT03233854 ) adults relapsed/refractory acute...
Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy targeting CD19 has significantly improved outcomes in the treatment of refractory or relapsed large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). We evaluated long-term course hematologic recovery, immune reconstitution, and infectious complications 41 patients with LBCL treated axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) at a single center. Grade 3+ cytopenias occurred 97.6% within first 28 days postinfusion, most resolved by 6 months. Overall, 63.4% received red...
Abstract Adoptively transferred T cells and agents designed to block the CD47–SIRPα axis are promising cancer therapeutics that activate distinct arms of immune system 1,2 . Here we administered anti-CD47 antibodies in combination with adoptively goal enhancing antitumour efficacy but observed abrogated therapeutic benefit due rapid macrophage-mediated clearance expressing chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) or engineered cell receptors. Anti-CD47-antibody-mediated CAR was potent enough serve...
Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells directed against CD19 (CAR19) are a revolutionary treatment for B-cell lymphomas (BCLs). CAR19 cell expansion is necessary function but also associated with toxicity. To define the impact of on patient outcomes, we prospectively followed cohort 236 patients treated (brexucabtagene autoleucel or axicabtagene ciloleucel) mantle lymphoma (MCL), follicular lymphoma, and large BCL (LBCL) over course 5 years obtained data using peripheral blood...
BackgroundOutcomes are poor for patients with large B-cell lymphoma who relapse after CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy (CAR19). CD22 is a nearly universally expressed surface and the efficacy of CD22-directed CAR (CAR22) in unknown, which was what we aimed to examine this study.MethodsIn single centre, open-label, dose-escalation phase 1 trial, intravenously administered CAR22 at two dose levels (1 million 3 CAR22-positive T cells per kg bodyweight) adult (aged...
Abstract Patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) progressing after anti-CD19 CAR T-cell (CAR19) therapy have poor outcomes. Subsequent shows promise, but the impact of residual CAR19 and early relapse remains unclear. We evaluated 37 CAR19-refractory LBCL patients who received anti-CD22 (CAR22) in a phase 1b trial (NCT04088890). Residual was unquantifiable 17 33 evaluable post-CAR22 infusion. Single-cell RNA sequencing revealed minimal CAR19/CAR22 co-transduction. Peak transgene levels...
