Quantitative Systems Pharmacology Model of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy.

ABSTRACT: Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CART) therapy is a new and promising cancer therapy. However, severe toxicity due to cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in CART-treated patients highlighted the possible danger of this new therapy. Disease burden and CART doses are the potential factors associated with CRS but the detail relationships between these factors and the severity of the CRS remain largely unknown. In this study, the quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP) approach is used to quantify the complex relationships among CART doses, disease burden, and pro inflammatory cytokines in human subjects and to gain relevant insights into the determinant of clinical toxicity/efficacy in development of CART therapy. The expansion of CART and elimination of B cells are more highly correlated with disease burden than the administered CART doses. To our best knowledge, this is the first QSP model that can describe the observed clinical data from CART-treated patients with cancer. This QSP model is a valuable tool for deepening our understanding of how the mechanism of action connects to the clinical outcomes and, therefore, may serve as an important model-based platform to guide the development and personalized dosing of the CART therapy.

Project description:Outcomes for post-chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy (CART) relapse are poor. The utilization of a unique CAR T cell construct for post-CART failure is increasing, but this approach is not well described. In this study, with CART-A the first unique CAR T cell construct received and CART-B the second, the primary objective was to characterize outcomes following CART-B. Secondary objectives included evaluating safety and toxicity with sequential CART infusions; investigating the impact of potential factors, such as antigen modulation and interval therapy, on CART-B response; and characterizing long-term outcomes in patients receiving multiple CARTs. This was a retrospective review (NCT03827343) of children and young adults with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) undergoing CART therapy who received at least 2 unique CART constructs, excluding interim CART reinfusions of the same product. Of 135 patients, 61 (45.1%) received 2 unique CART constructs, including 13 who received >2 CARTs over time. Patients included in this analysis received 14 distinct CARTs targeting CD19 and/or CD22. The median age at CART-A was 12.6 years (range, 3.3 to 30.4 years). The median time from CART-A to CART-B was 302 days (range, 53 to 1183 days). CART-B targeted a different antigen than CART-A in 48 patients (78.7%), owing primarily to loss of CART-A antigen target. The rate of complete remission (CR) was lower with CART-B (65.5%; 40 of 61) than with CART-A (88.5%; 54 of 61; P = .0043); 35 of 40 (87.5%) CART-B responders had CART-B targeting a different antigen than CART-A. Among the 21 patients with a partial response or nonresponse to CART-B, 8 (38.1%) received CART-B with the same antigen target as CART-A. Of 40 patients with CART-B complete response (CR), 29 (72.5%) relapsed. For the 21 patients with evaluable data, the relapse immunophenotype was antigennegative in 3 (14.3%), antigendim in 7 (33.3%), antigenpositive in 10 (47.6%), and lineage switch in 1 (4.8%). The median relapse-free survival following CART-B CR was 9.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.1 to 13.2 months), and overall survival was 15.0 months (95% CI, 13.0 to 22.7 months). Given the limited salvage options for post-CART relapse, identifying optimizing strategies for CART-B is critical. We raise awareness about the emerging use of CART for post-CART failure and highlight clinical implications accompanying this paradigm shift.
