Antibody-modified T cells: CARs take the front seat for hematologic malignancies.

ABSTRACT: T cells redirected to specific antigen targets with engineered chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are emerging as powerful therapies in hematologic malignancies. Various CAR designs, manufacturing processes, and study populations, among other variables, have been tested and reported in over 10 clinical trials. Here, we review and compare the results of the reported clinical trials and discuss the progress and key emerging factors that may play a role in effecting tumor responses. We also discuss the outlook for CAR T-cell therapies, including managing toxicities and expanding the availability of personalized cell therapy as a promising approach to all hematologic malignancies. Many questions remain in the field of CAR T cells directed to hematologic malignancies, but the encouraging response rates pave a wide road for future investigation.

Gene Modified CAR-T Cellular Therapy for Hematologic Malignancies.

Project description:With advances in the understanding of characteristics of molecules, specific antigens on the surface of hematological malignant cells were identified and multiple therapies targeting these antigens as neoplasm treatments were developed. Among them, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, which got United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for relapsed/refractory (r/r) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) as well as for recurrent acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) within the past five years, and for r/r mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) this year, represents one of the most rapidly evolving immunotherapies. Nevertheless, its applicability to other hematological malignancies, as well as its efficacy and persistence are fraught with clinical challenges. Currently, more than one thousand clinical trials in CAR T-cell therapy are ongoing and its development is changing rapidly. This review introduces the current status of CAR T-cell therapy in terms of the basic molecular aspects of CAR T-cell therapy, its application in hematological malignancies, adverse reactions during clinical use, remaining challenges, and future utilization.

The antigen-binding moiety in the driver's seat of CARs.

Project description:Immuno-oncology has been at the forefront of cancer treatment in recent decades. In particular immune checkpoint and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy have achieved spectacular results. Over the years, CAR-T cell development has followed a steady evolutionary path, focusing on increasing T cell potency and sustainability, which has given rise to different CAR generations. However, there was less focus on the mode of interaction between the CAR-T cell and the cancer cell; more specifically on the targeting moiety used in the CAR and its specific properties. Recently, the importance of optimizing this domain has been recognized and the possibilities have been exploited. Over the last 10 years-in addition to the classical scFv-based CARs-single domain CARs, natural receptor-ligand CARs, universal CARs and CARs targeting more than one antigen have emerged. In addition, the specific parameters of the targeting domain and their influence on T cell activation are being examined. In this review, we concisely present the history of CAR-T cell therapy, and then expand on various developments in the CAR ectodomain. We discuss different formats, each with their own advantages and disadvantages, as well as the developments in affinity tuning, avidity effects, epitope location, and influence of the extracellular spacer.

Mucorales-Specific T Cells in Patients with Hematologic Malignancies.

Project description:BackgroundInvasive mucormycosis (IM) is an emerging life-threatening fungal infection. It is difficult to obtain a definite diagnosis and to initiate timely intervention. Mucorales-specific T cells occur during the course of IM and are involved in the clearance of the infection. We have evaluated the feasibility of detecting Mucorales-specific T cells in hematological patients at risk for IM, and have correlated the detection of such cells with the clinical conditions of the patients.Methods and findingsBy using an enzyme linked immunospot assay, the presence of Mucorales-specific T cells in peripheral blood (PB) samples has been investigated at three time points during high-dose chemotherapy for hematologic malignancies. Mucorales-specific T cells producing interferon-?, interleukin-10 and interleukin-4 were analysed in order to detect a correlation between the immune response and the clinical picture. Twenty-one (10.3%) of 204 patients, accounting for 32 (5.3%) of 598 PB samples, tested positive for Mucorales-specific T cells. Two groups could be identified. Group 1, including 15 patients without signs or symptoms of invasive fungal diseases (IFD), showed a predominance of Mucorales-specific T cells producing interferon-gamma. Group 2 included 6 patients with a clinical picture consistent with invasive fungal disease (IFD): 2 cases of proven IM and 4 cases of possible IFD. The proven patients had significantly higher number of Mucorales-specific T cells producing interleukin-10 and interleukin-4 and higher rates of positive samples by using derived diagnostic cut-offs when compared with the 15 patients without IFD.ConclusionsMucorales-specific T cells can be detected and monitored in patients with hematologic malignancies at risk for IM. Mucorales-specific T cells polarized to the production of T helper type 2 cytokines are associated with proven IM and may be evaluated as a surrogate diagnostic marker for IM.

A novel antibody-drug conjugate targeting SAIL for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.

Project description:Although several new therapeutic approaches have improved outcomes in the treatment of hematologic malignancies, unmet need persists in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), multiple myeloma (MM) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Here we describe the proteomic identification of a novel cancer target, SAIL (Surface Antigen In Leukemia), whose expression is observed in AML, MM, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and follicular lymphoma (FL). While SAIL is widely expressed in CLL, AML, MM, DLBCL and FL patient samples, expression in cancer cell lines is mostly limited to cells of AML origin. We evaluated the antitumor activity of anti-SAIL monoclonal antibodies, 7-1C and 67-7A, conjugated to monomethyl auristatin F. Following internalization, anti-SAIL antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) exhibited subnanomolar IC50 values against AML cell lines in vitro. In pharmacology studies employing AML cell line xenografts, anti-SAIL ADCs resulted in significant tumor growth inhibition. The restricted expression profile of this target in normal tissues, the high prevalence in different types of hematologic cancers and the observed preclinical activity support the clinical development of SAIL-targeted ADCs.

Neoantigens in Hematologic Malignancies.

Project description:T cell cancer neoantigens are created from peptides derived from cancer-specific aberrant proteins, such as mutated and fusion proteins, presented in complex with human leukocyte antigens on the cancer cell surface. Because expression of the aberrant target protein is exclusive to malignant cells, immunotherapy directed against neoantigens should avoid "on-target, off-tumor" toxicity. The efficacy of neoantigen vaccines in melanoma and glioblastoma and of adoptive transfer of neoantigen-specific T cells in epithelial tumors indicates that neoantigens are valid therapeutic targets. Improvements in sequencing technology and innovations in antigen discovery approaches have facilitated the identification of neoantigens. In comparison to many solid tumors, hematologic malignancies have few mutations and thus fewer potential neoantigens. Despite this, neoantigens have been identified in a wide variety of hematologic malignancies. These include mutated nucleophosmin1 and PML-RARA in acute myeloid leukemia, ETV6-RUNX1 fusions and other mutated proteins in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, BCR-ABL1 fusions in chronic myeloid leukemia, driver mutations in myeloproliferative neoplasms, immunoglobulins in lymphomas, and proteins derived from patient-specific mutations in chronic lymphoid leukemias. We will review advances in the field of neoantigen discovery, describe the spectrum of identified neoantigens in hematologic malignancies, and discuss the potential of these neoantigens for clinical translation.

Targeting mitophagy in SRSF2 mutant hematologic malignancies

Project description:Recurrent Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) phosphorylates multiple splicing factors, including SRSF2, and regulates the splicing of a broad range of mRNAs in human cells. Inhibition of GSK-3 disrupts splicing and promotes cell death in hematopoietic cells with heterozygous mutations in SRSF2 and not in cells with wild-type splicing factors. To characterize how GSK-3 inhibition alters the cellular proteome in SRSF2-P95H/+ cells, we have performed quantitative mass spectrometry (qMS) on K562 cells with SRSF2P95H/+ knocked into the endogenous locus (PMID 30799057) and parental K562 cells, treated with the GSK-3 inhibitor CHIR99021. We focused on the mitochondrial proteome using human proteome (UniprotKB) and mitochondrial (MitoCarta 3.0) databases for protein identification, identifying 163 mitochondrial proteins whose levels are affected by SRSF2 mutation.

Facing challenges with hope: universal immune cells for hematologic malignancies.

Project description:Many patients have achieved a favorable overall survival rate since allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has been widely implemented to treat hematologic malignancies. However, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and complications of immunosuppressive drugs after allo-HSCT are the main causes of non-relapse mortality and a poor quality of life. In addition, GVHD and infusion-induced toxicity still occur with donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. Because of the special immune tolerance characteristics and anti-tumor ability of universal immune cells, universal immune cell therapy may strongly reduce GVHD, while simultaneously reducing tumor burden. Nevertheless, widespread application of universal immune cell therapy is mainly restricted by poor expansion and persistence efficacy. Many strategies have been applied to improve universal immune cell proliferation and persistence efficacy, including the use of universal cell lines, signaling regulation and CAR technology. In this review we have summarized current advances in universal immune cell therapy for hematologic malignancies with a discussion of future perspectives.

Population Pharmacokinetics of an Anti-PD-L1 Antibody, Durvalumab in Patients with Hematologic Malignancies.

Project description:Background and objectivesDurvalumab, a human monoclonal antibody targeting programmed cell death ligand 1, has been approved for urothelial carcinoma and stage III non-small cell lung cancer by the US Food and Drug Administration and is being evaluated in various malignancies. The objective of this study was to develop a population-pharmacokinetic model of durvalumab in patients with various hematologic malignancies and to investigate the effects of demographic and disease factors on the pharmacokinetics in this population.MethodsA total of 1812 concentrations from 267 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes, acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, or Hodgkin lymphoma were included in the analysis.ResultsThe pharmacokinetics of durvalumab was adequately described by a two-compartment model with first-order elimination. A decrease in durvalumab clearance over time was mainly explained by incorporation of time-dependent changes in albumin (in all patients) and immunoglobulin G (in patients with multiple myeloma) into the model. For multiple myeloma, patients with immunoglobulin G ? 20 g/L showed a 30% lower area under the concentration-time curve at cycle 1 compared with patients with immunoglobulin G < 20 g/L. The impact of any baseline covariates on durvalumab pharmacokinetics did not appear to be clinically relevant. The pharmacokinetics of durvalumab in hematologic malignancies was generally consistent with previously reported pharmacokinetics in solid tumors.ConclusionsThese results support the same dosing regimen (1500 mg every 4 weeks) for both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies from the perspective of adequate exposure. Additionally, total immunoglobulin G level could be a critical covariate for the pharmacokinetics of monoclonal antibodies in patients with multiple myeloma.

A novel CXCR4 antagonist IgG1 antibody (PF-06747143) for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.

Project description:The chemokine receptor CXCR4 is highly expressed and associated with poor prognosis in multiple malignancies. Upon engagement by its ligand, CXCL12, CXCR4 triggers intracellular signaling pathways that control trafficking of cells to tissues where the ligand is expressed, such as the bone marrow (BM). In hematologic cancers, CXCR4-driven homing of malignant cells to the BM protective niche is a key mechanism driving disease and therapy resistance. We developed a humanized CXCR4 immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) antibody (Ab), PF-06747143, which binds to CXCR4 and inhibits CXCL12-mediated signaling pathways, as well as cell migration. In in vivo preclinical studies, PF-06747143 monotherapy rapidly and transiently mobilized cells from the BM into the peripheral blood. In addition, PF-06747143 effectively induced tumor cell death via its Fc constant region-mediated effector function. This Fc-mediated cell killing mechanism not only enhanced antitumor efficacy, but also played a role in reducing the duration of cell mobilization, when compared with an IgG4 version of the Ab, which does not have Fc-effector function. PF-06747143 treatment showed strong antitumor effect in multiple hematologic tumor models including non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and multiple myeloma (MM). Importantly, PF-06747143 synergized with standard-of-care agents in a chemoresistant AML patient-derived xenograft model and in an MM model. These findings suggest that PF-06747143 is a potential best-in-class anti-CXCR4 antagonist for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, including in the resistant setting. PF-06747143 is currently in phase 1 clinical trial evaluation (registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02954653).
