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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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

Project description: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.

CAR-T Cell Therapy in B-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Project description:Treatment of refractory and relapsed (R/R) B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is an unmet medical need in both children and adults. Studies carried out in the last two decades have shown that autologous T cells engineered to express a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) represent an effective technique for treating these patients. Antigens expressed on B-cells, such as CD19, CD20, and CD22, represent targets suitable for treating patients with R/R B-ALL. CD19 CAR-T cells induce a high rate (80-90%) of complete remissions in both pediatric and adult R/R B-ALL patients. However, despite this impressive rate of responses, about half of responding patients relapse within 1-2 years after CAR-T cell therapy. Allo-HSCT after CAR-T cell therapy might consolidate the therapeutic efficacy of CAR-T and increase long-term outcomes; however, not all the studies that have adopted allo-HSCT as a consolidative treatment strategy have shown a benefit deriving from transplantation. For B-ALL patients who relapse early after allo-HSCT or those with insufficient T-cell numbers for an autologous approach, using T cells from the original stem cell donor offers the opportunity for the successful generation of CAR-T cells and for an effective therapeutic approach. Finally, recent studies have introduced allogeneic CAR-T cells generated from healthy donors or unmatched, which are opportunely manipulated with gene editing to reduce the risk of immunological incompatibility, with promising therapeutic effects.

Identification of methylation signatures associated with CAR T cell in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-hodgkin's lymphoma.

Project description:CD19-targeted CAR T cell immunotherapy has exceptional efficacy for the treatment of B-cell malignancies. B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma are two common B-cell malignancies with high recurrence rate and are refractory to cure. Although CAR T-cell immunotherapy overcomes the limitations of conventional treatments for such malignancies, failure of treatment and tumor recurrence remain common. In this study, we searched for important methylation signatures to differentiate CAR-transduced and untransduced T cells from patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. First, we used three feature ranking methods, namely, Monte Carlo feature selection, light gradient boosting machine, and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, to rank all methylation features in order of their importance. Then, the incremental feature selection method was adopted to construct efficient classifiers and filter the optimal feature subsets. Some important methylated genes, namely, SERPINB6, ANK1, PDCD5, DAPK2, and DNAJB6, were identified. Furthermore, the classification rules for distinguishing different classes were established, which can precisely describe the role of methylation features in the classification. Overall, we applied advanced machine learning approaches to the high-throughput data, investigating the mechanism of CAR T cells to establish the theoretical foundation for modifying CAR T cells.

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.

Casitas B-cell lymphoma mutation in childhood T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:Somatic CBL mutations have been reported in a variety of myeloid neoplasms but are rare in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). We analyzed 77 samples from hematologic malignancies, identifying a somatic mutation in CBL (p.C381R) in one patient with T-ALL that was associated with a uniparental disomy at the CBL locus and a germline heterozygous mutation in one patient with JMML. Two NOTCH1 mutations and homozygous deletions in LEF1 and CDKN2A were identified in T-ALL cells. The activation of the RAS pathway was enhanced, and activation of the NOTCH1 pathway was inhibited in NIH 3T3 cells that expressed p.C381R. This study appears to be the first to identify a CBL mutation in T-ALL.

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.

Precursor T-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma with rare presentation in the urinary bladder.

Project description:We present the 16th reported case of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) with involvement in the bladder. Our patient was a 22 year-old man with T-cell ALL with a mediastinal mass. He received hyperfractionated cyclophos-phamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, dexamethasone (HyperCVAD) with mediastinal radiation. Prior to starting maintenance, he relapsed in the bladder and marrow. He received a nelarabine-based induction regimen and achieved remission. This was followed by an unrelated 11/12 HLA-matched myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplant. He is in complete remission for the past 409 days.

CTL019 (tisagenlecleucel): CAR-T therapy for relapsed and refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:Over the past decades, survival of patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has dramatically improved, but the subgroup of patients with relapsed/refractory ALL still continues to have dismal prognosis. As an emerging therapeutic approach, chimeric antigen receptor-modified T-cells (CAR-T) represent one of the few practice-changing therapies for this subgroup of patients. Originally conceived and built in Philadelphia (University of Pennsylvania), CTL019 or tisagenlecleucel, the first CAR-T approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, showed impressive results in refractory/relapsed ALL since the publication on two pediatric patients in 2013. It is in this context that we provide a review of this product in terms of manufacturing, pharmacology, toxicity, and efficacy studies. Evaluation and management of toxicities, particularly cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity, is recognized as an essential part of the patient treatment with broader use of IL-6 receptor inhibitor. An under-assessed aspect, the quality of life of patients entering CAR-T cells treatment, will also be reviewed. By their unique nature, CAR-T cells such as tisagenlecleucel operate in a different way than typical drugs, but also provide unique hope for B-cell malignancies.

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.

Overexpression of wild-type IL-7Rα promotes T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma.

Project description:Tight regulation of IL-7Rα expression is essential for normal T-cell development. IL-7Rα gain-of-function mutations are known drivers of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Although a subset of patients with T-ALL display high IL7R messenger RNA levels and cases with IL7R gains have been reported, the impact of IL-7Rα overexpression, rather than mutational activation, during leukemogenesis remains unclear. In this study, overexpressed IL-7Rα in tetracycline-inducible Il7r transgenic and Rosa26 IL7R knockin mice drove potential thymocyte self-renewal, and thymus hyperplasia related to increased proliferation of T-cell precursors, which subsequently infiltrated lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow, ultimately leading to fatal leukemia. The tumors mimicked key features of human T-ALL, including heterogeneity in immunophenotype and genetic subtype between cases, frequent hyperactivation of the PI3K/Akt pathway paralleled by downregulation of p27Kip1 and upregulation of Bcl-2, and gene expression signatures evidencing activation of JAK/STAT, PI3K/Akt/mTOR and Notch signaling. Notably, we also found that established tumors may no longer require high levels of IL-7R expression upon secondary transplantation and progressed in the absence of IL-7, but remain sensitive to inhibitors of IL-7R-mediated signaling ruxolitinib (Jak1), AZD1208 (Pim), dactolisib (PI3K/mTOR), palbociclib (Cdk4/6), and venetoclax (Bcl-2). The relevance of these findings for human disease are highlighted by the fact that samples from patients with T-ALL with high wild-type IL7R expression display a transcriptional signature resembling that of IL-7-stimulated pro-T cells and, critically, of IL7R-mutant cases of T-ALL. Overall, our study demonstrates that high expression of IL-7Rα can promote T-cell tumorigenesis, even in the absence of IL-7Rα mutational activation.
