Preinfusion factors impacting relapse immunophenotype following CD19 CAR T cells.

ABSTRACT: Relapse following chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy directed against CD19 for relapsed/refractory B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r B-ALL) remains a significant challenge. Three main patterns of relapse predominate: CD19 positive (CD19pos) relapse, CD19 negative (CD19neg) relapse, and lineage switch (LS). Development and validation of risk factors that predict relapse phenotype could help define potential pre- or post-CAR T-cell infusion interventions aimed at decreasing relapse. Our group sought to extensively characterize preinfusion risk factors associated with the development of each relapse pattern via a multicenter, retrospective review of children and young adults with r/r B-ALL treated with a murine-based CD19-CAR construct. Of 420 patients treated with CAR, 166 (39.5%) relapsed, including 83 (50%) CD19pos, 68 (41%) CD19neg, and 12 (7.2%) LS relapses. A greater cumulative number of prior complete remissions was associated with CD19pos relapses, whereas high preinfusion disease burden, prior blinatumomab nonresponse, older age, and 4-1BB CAR construct were associated with CD19neg relapses. The presence of a KMT2A rearrangement was the only preinfusion risk factor associated with LS. The median overall survival following a post-CAR relapse was 11.9 months (95% CI, 9-17) and was particularly dismal in patients experiencing an LS, with no long-term survivors following this pattern of relapse. Given the poor outcomes for those with post-CAR relapse, study of relapse prevention strategies, such as consolidative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, is critical and warrants further investigation on prospective clinical trials.

Project description:BackgroundCytopenia is one of the most common adverse events following the CAR-T cell infusion, affecting the quality of life and potentially leading to life-threatening bleeding and infection. This study aimed to systematically review the cytopenias following anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy and further analyse the contributing factors.MethodsDatabases including PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane were systematically searched on 8 May 2022. A random-effect meta-analysis was used to estimate the incidence of cytopenia, and subgroup analyses were applied to explore heterogeneity.ResultsA total of 68 studies involving 2950 patients were included in this study. The overall incidence of all grade anaemia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, leukopoenia, lymphocytopenia and febrile neutropenia was 65%, 55%, 78%, 62%, 70% and 27%, respectively, and the corresponding cytopenias of grade 3 or worse were 33%, 31%, 61%, 45%, 46%, and 21%, respectively. Subgroup analysis showed increased incidence of cytopenias in subgroups with lower median age, proportion of males (<65%) and proportion of bridging therapy (<80%) and in the subgroup with a median line of prior therapy ≥3. In terms of disease and therapeutic target, cytopenias were more frequent in ALL patients and in dual-target CAR-T therapies (targeting CD19 in combination with other targets). Furthermore, CAR-T products manufactured by lentiviral vectors and those with the costimulatory domain of CD28 were more likely to cause haematological toxicity. No significant differences were observed in cytopenia between patients treated with CAR-T products with murine and humanized scFv.ConclusionIn conclusion, neutropenia is the most frequent cytopenia after CAR-T therapy, both in all grades or grade ≥3. The incidence of cytopenias following CAR-T therapy is influenced by the age, sex, disease and number of prior therapy lines of the patients, as well as the target and costimulatory domain of CAR-T cells, and viral vectors used for manufacturing.KEY MESSAGESNeutropenia is the most frequent cytopenia after CAR-T therapy.The clinical characteristics of the patients, the design of CAR-T cells and the protocol of CAR-T treatment can influence the occurrence of cytopenias following the CAR-T therapy.
