Treatment of Aggressive T Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma/leukemia Using Anti-CD5 CAR T Cells.

ABSTRACT: While treatment for B-cell malignancies has been revolutionized through the advent of CAR immunotherapy, similar strategies for T-cell malignancies have been limited. Additionally, T-cell leukemias and lymphomas can commonly metastasize to the CNS, where outcomes are poor and treatment options are associated with severe side effects. Consequently, the development of safer and more effective alternatives for targeting malignant T cells that have invaded the CNS remains clinically important. CD5 CAR has previously been shown to effectively target various T-cell cancers in preclinical studies. As IL-15 strengthens the anti-tumor response, we have modified CD5 CAR to secrete an IL-15/IL-15sushi complex. In a Phase I clinical trial, these CD5-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells were tested for safety and efficacy in a patient with refractory T-LBL with CNS infiltration. CD5-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells were able to rapidly ablate the CNS lymphoblasts within a few weeks, resulting in the remission of the patient's lymphoma. Despite the presence of CD5 on normal T cells, the patient only experienced a brief, transient T-cell aplasia. These results suggest that CD5-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells may be a safe and useful treatment of T-cell malignancies and may be particularly beneficial for patients with CNS involvement.Graphical Abstract.

Treatment of aggressive T-cell lymphoma/leukemia with anti-CD4 CAR T cells.

Project description:T-cell lymphomas are aggressive lymphomas that often resist current therapy options or present with relapsed disease, making the development of more effective treatment regimens clinically important. Previously, we have shown that CD4 CAR can effectively target T-cell malignancies in preclinical studies. As IL-15 has been shown to strengthen the anti-tumor response, we have modified CD4 CAR to secrete an IL-15/IL-15sushi complex. These CD4-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells and NK92 cells efficiently eliminated CD4+ leukemic cell lines in co-culture assays. Additionally, CD4-IL15/IL15sushi CAR out-performed CD4 CAR in in vivo models, demonstrating a benefit to IL-15/IL-15sushi inclusion. In a Phase I clinical trial, CD4-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells were tested for safety in three patients with different T-cell lymphomas. Infusion of CD4-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells was well-tolerated by the patients without significant adverse effects and led to the remission of their lymphomas. Additionally, infusion led to the depletion of CD4+ Treg cells and expansion of CD3+CD8+ T cells and NK cells. These results suggest that CD4-IL15/IL15sushi CAR T cells may be a safe and effective treatment for patients with relapsed or refractory T-cell lymphomas, where new treatment options are needed.

Perspectives on outpatient administration of CAR-T cell therapy in aggressive B-cell lymphoma and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies that specifically target the CD19 antigen have emerged as a highly effective treatment option in patients with refractory B-cell hematological malignancies. Safety and efficacy outcomes from the pivotal prospective clinical trials of axicabtagene ciloleucel, tisagenlecleucel and lisocabtagene maraleucel and the retrospective, postmarketing, real-world analyses have confirmed high response rates and durable remissions in patients who had failed multiple lines of therapy and had no meaningful treatment options. Although initially administered in the inpatient setting, there has been a growing interest in delivering CAR-T cell therapy in the outpatient setting; however, this has not been adopted as standard clinical practice for multiple reasons, including logistic and reimbursement issues. CAR-T cell therapy requires a multidisciplinary approach and coordination, particularly if given in an outpatient setting. The ability to monitor patients closely is necessary and proper protocols must be established to respond to clinical changes to ensure efficient, effective and rapid evaluation either in the clinic or emergency department for management decisions regarding fever, sepsis, cytokine release syndrome and neurological events, specifically immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. This review presents the authors' institutional experience with the preparation and delivery of outpatient CD19-directed CAR-T cell therapy.

Point-of-care anti-CD19 CAR T-cells for treatment of relapsed and refractory aggressive B-cell lymphoma.

Project description:Anti CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has transformed the care of relapsed and refractory aggressive B-cell lymphoma. However, financial toxicity and manufacturing time represent barriers to its widespread implementation. Study applicability, toxicity, and efficacy of a locally produced autologous CD19-directed CAR T-cell product were studied. We performed a phase 1b/2 clinical trial with a point-of-care (POC) CAR T-cell product that contains a CD28 costimulatory domain. Adult patients with aggressive B-cell lymphoma or transformed low-grade lymphoma who received at least 2 prior regimens were eligible. A total of 73 patients, with a median age of 49 years, met inclusion criteria. CAR T-cell production time from apheresis was 10 days (interquartile range 10-11), negating the need for bridging chemotherapy. Overall and complete response rates were 62.5% and 37.5%. Median progression-free and overall survival were 3.7 and 12.1 months, respectively. Overall and progression-free survival at 12 months were 52.1% (confidence interval [CI]: 40.8%-66.5%) and 40% (CI: 30%-53.7%), respectively. Patients who achieved response had longer progression-free and overall survival. Grade 3-4 cytokine release syndrome was observed in 9.5% of the patients, and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome grade 3-4 in 21.9%. No deaths occurred due to CAR T-cell toxicity. Fifteen patients (20%) underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation at a median time of 60 days after CAR T-cell therapy; 8 were alive at last follow-up. Of the 6 patients who underwent the transplantation in complete response 2 deceased because of toxicity. POC CAR T-cells are a feasible therapeutic option in aggressive B-cell lymphoma. They provide good efficacy while minimizing production time and the need for bridging therapy.

Preclinical targeting of aggressive T-cell malignancies using anti-CD5 chimeric antigen receptor.

Project description:The outlook for T-cell malignancies remain poor due to the lack of effective therapeutic options. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) immunotherapy has recently shown promise in clinical trials for B-cell malignancies, however, designing CARs for T-cell based disease remain a challenge due to the shared surface antigen pool between normal and malignant T-cells. Normal T-cells express CD5 but NK (natural killer) cells do not, positioning NK cells as attractive cytotoxicity cells for CD5CAR design. Additionally, CD5 is highly expressed in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs). Here, we report a robust anti-CD5 CAR (CD5CAR) transduced into a human NK cell line NK-92 that can undergo stable expansion ex vivo. We found that CD5CAR NK-92 cells possessed consistent, specific, and potent anti-tumor activity against a variety of T-cell leukemia and lymphoma cell lines as well as primary tumor cells. Furthermore, we were able to demonstrate significant inhibition and control of disease progression in xenograft mouse models of T-ALL. The data suggest that CAR redirected targeting for T-cell malignancies using NK cells may be a viable method for new and complementary therapeutic approaches that could improve the current outcome for patients.

Fratricide-resistant CD1a-specific CAR T cells for the treatment of cortical T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:Relapsed/refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) has a dismal outcome, and no effective targeted immunotherapies for T-ALL exist. The extension of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells (CARTs) to T-ALL remains challenging because the shared expression of target antigens between CARTs and T-ALL blasts leads to CART fratricide. CD1a is exclusively expressed in cortical T-ALL (coT-ALL), a major subset of T-ALL, and retained at relapse. This article reports that the expression of CD1a is mainly restricted to developing cortical thymocytes, and neither CD34+ progenitors nor T cells express CD1a during ontogeny, confining the risk of on-target/off-tumor toxicity. We thus developed and preclinically validated a CD1a-specific CAR with robust and specific cytotoxicity in vitro and antileukemic activity in vivo in xenograft models of coT-ALL, using both cell lines and coT-ALL patient-derived primary blasts. CD1a-CARTs are fratricide resistant, persist long term in vivo (retaining antileukemic activity in re-challenge experiments), and respond to viral antigens. Our data support the therapeutic and safe use of fratricide-resistant CD1a-CARTs for relapsed/refractory coT-ALL.

Anti-CD19 CAR T-cell consolidation therapy combined with CD19+ feeding T cells and TKI for Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:We conducted a single-arm, open-label, single-center phase 1 study to assess the safety and efficacy of multicycle-sequential anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in combination with autologous CD19+ feeding T cells (FTCs) and tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) as consolidation therapy in patients under the age of 65 years with de novo Ph-positive CD19+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Participants were given induction chemotherapy as well as systemic chemotherapy with TKI. Afterward, they received a single cycle of CD19 CAR T-cell infusion and another 3 cycles of CD19 CAR T-cell and CD19+ FTC infusions, followed by TKI as consolidation therapy. CD19+ FTCs were given at 3 different doses. The phase 1 results of the first 15 patients, including 2 withdrawals, are presented. The most common adverse events were cytopenia (13/13) and hypogammaglobinemia (12/13). There was no incidence of cytokine release syndrome above grade 2 or immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome or grade 4 nonhematological toxicities. All 13 patients achieved complete remission, including 12 patients with a complete molecular response (CMR) at the data cutoff. The relapse-free survival was 84%, and the overall survival was 83% with a median follow-up of 27 months. The total number of CD19-expressing cells decreased with an increasing CMR rate. CD19 CAR T cells survived for up to 40 months, whereas CD19+ FTCs vanished in 8 patients 3 months after the last infusion. These findings could form the basis for the development of an allo-HSCT-free consolidation paradigm. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03984968.

Treatment of secondary CNS lymphoma using CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells.

Project description:BackgroundAggressive B cell lymphoma with secondary central nervous system (CNS) involvement (SCNSL) carries a dismal prognosis. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells (CAR-T) targeting CD19 have revolutionized the treatment for B cell lymphomas; however, only single cases with CNS manifestations successfully treated with CD19 CAR-T have been reported.MethodsWe prospectively enrolled 4 patients with SCNSL into our study to assess clinical responses and monitor T cell immunity.ResultsTwo of four SNCSL patients responded to the CD19-targeted CAR-T. Only one patient showed a substantial expansion of peripheral (PB) CAR-T cells with an almost 100-fold increase within the first week after CAR-T. The same patient also showed marked neurotoxicity and progression of the SNCSL despite continuous surface expression of CD19 on the lymphoma cells and an accumulation of CD4+ central memory-type CAR-T cells in the CNS. Our studies indicate that the local production of chemokine IP-10, possibly through its receptor CXCR3 expressed on our patient's CAR-T, could potentially have mediated the local accumulation of functionally suboptimal anti-tumor T cells.ConclusionsOur results demonstrate expansion and homing of CAR-T cells into the CNS in SNCSL patients. Local production of chemokines such as IP-10 may support CNS infiltration by CAR-T cells but also carry the potential of amplifying local toxicity. Future studies investigating numbers, phenotype, and function of CAR-T in the different body compartments of SNSCL patients receiving CAR-T will help to improve local delivery of "fit" and highly tumor-reactive CAR-T with low off-target reactivity into the CNS.

Use of CAR T-cell for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treatment: a review study.

Project description:Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a cancer-specific lymphoid cell. Induction and consolidation chemotherapy alone or in combination with different therapeutic approaches remain the main treatment. Although complete or partial remission of the disease can be achieved, the risk of relapse or refractory leukemia is still high. More effective and safe therapy options are yet unmet needs. In recent years' new therapeutic approaches have been widely used. Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) presents significant limitations and the outcome of the consolidation treatment is patient dependent. Side effects such as Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are extremely common, therefore, using alternative methods to address these challenges for treatment seems crucial. In the last decade, T cells genetically engineered with Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) treatment for the ALL are largely studied and represent the new era of strategy. According to the Phase I/II clinical trials, this technology results seem very promising and can be used in the next future as an effective and safe treatment for ALL treatment. In this review different generations, challenges, and clinical studies related to chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells for ALL treatment are discussed.

Current Use of Asparaginase in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia/Lymphoblastic Lymphoma.

Project description:Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) cure rates have improved exponentially over the past five decades with now over 90% of children achieving long-term survival. A direct contributor to this remarkable feat is the development and expanded understanding of combination chemotherapy. Asparaginase is the most recent addition to the ALL chemotherapy backbone and has now become a hallmark of therapy. It is generally accepted that the therapeutic effects of asparaginase is due to depletion of the essential amino acid asparagine, thus occupying a unique space within the therapeutic landscape of ALL. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiling have allowed a detailed and accessible insight into the biochemical effects of asparaginase resulting in regular clinical use of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Asparaginase's derivation from bacteria, and in some cases conjugation with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety, have contributed to a unique toxicity profile with hypersensitivity reactions being the most salient. Hypersensitivity, along with several other toxicities, has limited the use of asparaginase in some populations of ALL patients. Both TDM and toxicities have contributed to the variety of approaches to the incorporation of asparaginase into the treatment of ALL. Regardless of the approach to asparagine depletion, it has continually demonstrated to be among the most important components of ALL therapy. Despite regular use over the past 50 years, and its incorporation into the standard of care treatment for ALL, there remains much yet to be discovered and ample room for improvement within the utilization of asparaginase therapy.

CD19/BAFF-R dual-targeted CAR T cells for the treatment of mixed antigen-negative variants of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells targeting CD19 mediate potent antitumor effects in B-cell malignancies including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), but antigen loss remains the major cause of treatment failure. To mitigate antigen escape and potentially improve the durability of remission, we developed a dual-targeting approach using an optimized, bispecific CAR construct that targets both CD19 and BAFF-R. CD19/BAFF-R dual CAR T cells exhibited antigen-specific cytokine release, degranulation, and cytotoxicity against both CD19-/- and BAFF-R-/- variant human ALL cells in vitro. Immunodeficient mice engrafted with mixed CD19-/- and BAFF-R-/- variant ALL cells and treated with a single dose of CD19/BAFF-R dual CAR T cells experienced complete eradication of both CD19-/- and BAFF-R-/- ALL variants, whereas mice treated with monospecific CD19 or BAFF-R CAR T cells succumbed to outgrowths of CD19-/BAFF-R+ or CD19+/BAFF-R- tumors, respectively. Further, CD19/BAFF-R dual CAR T cells showed prolonged in vivo persistence, raising the possibility that these cells may have the potential to promote durable remissions. Together, our data support clinical translation of BAFF-R/CD19 dual CAR T cells to treat ALL.
