Sequential CD19/22 CAR T-cell immunotherapy following autologous stem cell transplantation for central nervous system lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell immunotherapy following autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a promising method for refractory or relapsed multiple myeloma, but explicit data for central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL) are lacking. Here, we treated 13 CNSL patients with ASCT sequential CD19/22 CAR T-cell infusion and simultaneously evaluated the clinical efficacy and toxicity. The 13 CNSL patients analyzed included four primary CNSL and nine secondary CNSL patients. Patients 1 and 10, who had complete remission status before enrollment, maintained clinical efficacy without recurrence. Nine of the remaining 11 patients responded to our protocol with a median durable time of 14.03 months, and the overall response and complete remission rate were 81.81% and 54.55%, respectively. No patient suffered grades 3-4 cytokine-release syndrome (CRS), and only patient 10 experienced severe immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS). In addition, increases in serum ferritin and interleukin-6 levels were often accompanied by CRS and ICANS. After a median follow-up time of 14.20 months, the estimated 1-year progression-free survival and overall survival rates were 74.59% and 82.50%, respectively. Sequential CD19/22 CAR T-cell immunotherapy following ASCT as a novel method for CNSL appears to have encouraging long-term efficacy with relatively manageable side effects.

Project description:BackgroundThe use of T cells expressing chimeric antigen receptor (CAR T) engineered to target CD19 constitutes breakthrough treatment for relapsed or refractory B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R B-NHL). Despite improved outcomes, high relapse rate remains a challenge to overcome. Here, we report the clinical results and the pharmacokinetics of bispecific CD19/22 CAR T in patients with R/R B-NHL.MethodsWe performed a prospective, single-arm study of bispecific CD19/22 CAR T cells in R/R B-NHL. We analyzed the safety and efficacy and investigated the kinetic profiles of the CAR T cells. CAR transgene levels were measured using quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and correlation analyses of pharmacodynamic markers and product characteristics, disease conditions, clinical efficacy and adverse events were performed.ResultsFrom August 2017 to September 2020, a total of 32 patients with CD19/22 CAR T administration were analyzed. The overall response rate was 79.3%, and the complete response rate was 34.5%. The progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates at 12 months were 40.0% and 63.3%, respectively. Among patients who had a CR at 3 months, the PFS and OS rates at 12 months were 66.7% and 100%, respectively. Severe cytokine release syndrome (sCRS) (grade 3 and higher) occurred in nine patients (28.1%). Grade 3 or higher neurologic events occurred in four patients (12.5%). One patient died from irreversible severe CRS-associated acute kidney injury. Long-term CAR T cells persistence correlated with clinical efficacy (133 days vs 22 days, P = 0.004). Patients treated with more than three prior therapies and presenting extranodal organ involvement had lower maximal concentration (Cmax) values than other patients. Responders had higher Cmax and area under the curve values than non-responders. Tumour burden and Cmax were potentially associated with the severity of CRS.ConclusionsThis study demonstrates the safety and potential clinical efficacy of bispecific CD19/22 CAR T cells in patients with R/R B-NHL and highlights the importance of measuring kinetic parameters in PB to predict efficacy and safety in clinical applications of CAR T cell therapy.Clinical trial registrationhttps://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03196830, identifier NCT03196830.
