Dr. Ghosh on the Role of Off-the-Shelf CAR T-Cell Therapy in Myeloma June – OncLive
Posted: June 6, 2021 at 1:58 am
Monalisa Ghosh, MD, discusses the role of off-the-shelf CAR T-cell therapy in patients with multiple myeloma.
Monalisa Ghosh, MD, a clinical assistant professor at the University of Michigan, discusses the role of off-the-shelf CAR T-cell therapy in patients with multiple myeloma.
These products are promising in many ways and provide several advantages, including a decreased manufacturing time, Ghosh says. Experts in the field can request and receive off-the-shelf CAR T-cell products from a bank, she explains.This eliminates the need to wait for patient cell collection, which puts the patient at some degree of risk, and decreases the manufacturing time that ordinarily takes several weeks. The decreased treatment timeline can also be beneficial to patients with rapidly progressive disease, Ghosh notes.
However, challenges exist with this therapy, as allogenic cells may cause certain adverse effects, such as a graft-versus-host reaction that is similar to reactions observed with stem cell transplantation, Ghosh says. Currently, certain methods of T-cell receptor engineering may be able to mitigate this risk, she adds.Additionally, some hosts may reject the cells, a possibility that has been observed in early studies, wherein cells have not demonstrated long-term persistence.It may be possible to overcome this through multiple cell infusions, Ghosh notes.
Overall, the accessibility of off-the-shelf CAR T-cell products to a large group of patients with multiple myeloma appears promising, Ghosh concludes.

CAR T Cells Have Reshaped the Hematologic Cancer Landscape – Targeted Oncology
Posted: June 6, 2021 at 1:58 am
Michael Bishop, MD, a professor of medicine and director of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Program at The University of Chicago Medicine, discussesthe different settings where chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy are used.
Bishop thinks CAR T-cell therapy made a significant impact upon patient care. CAR T cells are indicated for 3 main groups of patients. The first is for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and for pediatric and young adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), which has FDA-approved agents. More recent approvals have been for patients with mantle cell lymphoma. Physicians are waiting for what they expect to be the first indication for CAR T-cell therapy in multiple myeloma.
Starting with ALL for the pediatric population, CAR T cells have been a game changer, according to Bishop. These young patients have median overall survivals of less than 6 months, but the high response rates with CAR T are enabling them to potentially go on to an allogeneic stem cell transplant and in some cases, be free of disease.
In the non-Hodgkin lymphoma setting, there are now 3 products indicated for advanced B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which is significant for patients with totally refractory disease. There is this therapeutic option that is potentially curative. Bishop says investigators are seeing patients out to 5 years without any further therapy after receiving CAR T cells.

In Some Heavily Pretreated Patients with R/R MM Ide-Cel Continues to Show Deep and Durable Responses – Targeted Oncology
Posted: June 6, 2021 at 1:58 am
Long-term follow-up data from the KarMMa trial found that treatment with the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel; formerly bb2121; Abecma), continues to demonstrate improved survival among heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, according to a presentation presented at the 2021 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.1
The favorable benefit risk profile of ide-cel, regardless of the number of prior lines of therapy, supports its role as a treatment option for heavily pretreated relapse refractory multiple myeloma, Larry D. Anderson, MD, PhD, associate professor, UT Southwestern Medical Center, said during a presentation of the poster.
At the December 21, 2020, data cutoff, the median follow-up was 24.8 months (range, 1.7-33.6).
Overall response rate (ORR) was 73% in the overall population, including a 33% complete response rate (CRR; complete response [CR] or stringent complete response [sCR]), 20% with a very good partial response (VGPR), and 20% who had a partial response (PR). ORR rates were 50%, 69%, and 81%, respectively, across the 150, 300, and 450 million CAR T cell-dose arms, including CR/sCR rates of 25%, 29%, and 39%.
Of note, ORR did not vary by the number of prior lines of therapy received. For those who received 3 prior lines of therapy (n = 15), the ORR was 73%, including a CRR of 53% and VGPR of 20%, compared with an ORR of 73% in those who received 4 (n = 112) lines of therapy, including a CRR of 30%, VGPR of 23%, and PR of 20%.
Median duration of response (DOR) was 10.9 months (95% CI, 9.0-11.4), including 9.9 months for the 300 million CAR T cells-dose arm and 11.3 months for the 450 million CAR T cells-dose arm -dose arm. Median DOR was 21.5 months in patients who experienced a CR or sCR. Median DOR by response were 21.5 months (95% CI, 12.5 to not estimable [NE]) among those who experienced a CR, 10.4 months (95% CI, 5.1-12.2) for those with VGPR, and 4.5 months (95% CI, 2.9-6.7) in those with PRs.
Moreover, the rate of event-free 24-month DOR appeared to be similar in patients who received 3 or 4 or more lines of therapy. For those who received 3 lines of prior therapy, median DOR was 8.0 months (95% CI, 3.3-11.4), compared with 10.9 months (95% CI, 9.2-13.5) in those who received 4 or more lines of therapy.
Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.6 months (95% CI, 5.6-11.6) across all target doses, including 5.8 months for the 300 million CAR T cells-dose arm and 12.2 months for the 450 million CAR T cells-dose arm -dose arm. Similarly, median PFS was similar among those who previously received 3 lines of therapy, compared with 4 or more prior lines of therapy (8.6 months (95% CI, 2.9-12.1) vs 8.9 months (95% CI, 5.4-11.6)]
The median time to first response was 1 month (range, 0.5-8.8), with a median time to CR of 2.8 months (range, 1.0-15.8).
Median overall survival (OS) was 24.8 months (95% CI, 19.9-31.2), including a median OS of 22.0 months (95% CI, 10.-NE) in those who received 3 lines of prior therapy and 25.2 months (95% CI, 19.9-NE) in those who received 4 or more lines of prior therapy. Moreover, OS was 20 months or longer across several key high-risk subgroups, including those aged 65 or older (21.7 months; 95% CI, 17.1-31.2), those with extramedullary disease (20.2 months; 95% CI, 15.5-28.3), and those with triple refractory disease (21.7 months; 95% CI, 18.2-NE).
In regards to safety, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity were similar, regardless of prior lines of therapy received, and were mostly low grade. In total, 85% and 18% of the overall population experienced at least 1 CRS or neurotoxicity event, respectively.
The safety profile of ide-cel was consistent with long-term follow-up, with similar rates of infections and secondary primary malignancies, and no unexpected gene therapy related toxicities were observed. The most common grade 3 to 4 adverse events (AEs) in the overall population were neutropenia (89%), anemia (61%), thrombocytopenia (52%), leukopenia (39%), lymphopenia (27%), and infections (27%).
Long-term results from the KarMMA trial continue to demonstrate frequent, deep, and durable responses in heavily pretreated patients with [relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma], the study authors write in the poster. ORR, CRR, DOR, and PFS were consistent with previous reports and patients received similar benefit regardless of the number of prior lines of therapy.
In his presentation, Anderson presented data on long-term efficacy and safety following treatment with ide-cel in the pivotal phase 2 KarMMa trial (NCT03361748)-including overall data and by prior line of therapy that patients had received (3 vs 4), since the FDA label is requiring at least 4 prior lines, and this study only required 3, he added.
In total, 140 patients who had received at least 3 prior lines of therapy for multiple myeloma including an IMiD, a PI, and an anti-CD38 antibody and were refractory to their last treatment regimen, were enrolled in the study. However, only 128 patients received infusion with ide-cel.
Patients were treated with ide-cel across the target dose range of 150 (n = 4), 300 (n = 70), and 450 (n = 54) million CAR T cells.
ORR served as the primary end point of the study. Secondary end points included CRR, safety, DOR, PFS, OS, pharmacokinetics, minimal residual disease, quality of life, and health economics and outcomes research.
At baseline, the median patient age was 61 years (range, 33-78) and patients had a median of 6 years (range, 1-18) since their diagnosis. A majority of the patients were male (59%), had high tumor burden (51%), B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) expression 50% at screening (85%), ECOG performance status of 1 (53%), and Revised International Staging System disease stage of II (70%). Thirty-five percent of patients had high-risk features.2
The median number of prior therapies was 6 (range, 3-16) and 94% had previously undergone at least 1 autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (94%). Eighty-eight percent of patients required bridging therapy. Eighty-nine percent of patients had double-refractory disease, 84% were triple-refractory, and 26% were penta-refractory.
Patients who had received 3 prior lines of therapy had similar baseline characteristics, compared with those who received 4 prior lines, including differences in extramedullary disease, high-risk cytogenetics, prior refractoriness, and time since the initial diagnosis to screening.
Patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma previously exposed to immunomodulatory agents, protease inhibitors, and anti-CD38 antibodies have poor outcomes with subsequent therapy using previously approved regimens, with expected response rates in the 26% to 31% range, PFS in the 2- to 4-month range, and overall survival less than 9 months, Anderson explained.
However, the BCMA-directed CAR T-cell therapy previously demonstrated favorable tolerability with deep, durable responses in patients who were heavily pretreated with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.2 As a result, the FDA approved the agent for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma after 4 or more prior therapies, including an immunomodulatory drug, a proteasome inhibitor, and an anti-CD38 antibody, representing the first BCMAdirected CAR T-cell therapy approved.3
The study authors noted that ide-cel is being explored in ongoing clinical trials, including the following:

HSCT-Sparing, Chemotherapy-Free Treatment of Ph+ ALL With Ponatinib/Blinatumomab Leads to 100% CR Rate – Cancer Network
Posted: June 6, 2021 at 1:58 am
Combination therapy with ponatinib (Iclusig) and blinatumomab (Blincyto) induced a complete response in all patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)positive acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) who were treated on a phase 2 study (NCT03263572), according to a presentation at the 2021 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting.1
The chemotherapy-free, hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)sparing regimen for patients receiving systemic therapy in the first-line (n = 20) led to a complete response (CR) rate or pathologic CR rate of 100%, while patients with relapsed/refractory Phpositive ALL had a rate of 89%. Moreover, patients in the frontline Phpositive cohort had a major molecular response (MMR) of 100% and a complete molecular response (CMR) of 85%.
The combination of ponatinib and blinatumomab is safe and effective in Ph-positive ALL, Nicholas James Short, MD, an assistant professor in the Department of Leukemia at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, said during an oral presentation of the data. Overall, the novel chemotherapy-free combination of ponatinib and blinatumomab appears to be a promising regimen in both frontline and relapsed/refractory Ph-ALL, as well as in chronic myeloid leukemia in lymphoid blast phase [CML-LBP]. Given the particularly favorable outcomes of newly diagnosed patients with frontline, Ph-positive ALL who were not transplanted in first remission, these data suggest that this regimen may serve as an effective transplant-sparing regimen in this population.
Chemotherapy plus a TKI has become the standard of care in newly diagnosed Ph-positive ALL, with first- and second-generation TKIs yielding 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of approximately 35% to 50%.2-4 Moreover, while ponatinib has yielded promising activity in patients with T315I mutations, which are present in up to 75% of patients at relapse,5 blinatumomab has demonstrated efficacy as a monotherapy in the relapsed/refractory setting, and in combination with dasatinib in newly diagnosed patients.6,7
The trial enrolled patients with newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory Ph-positive ALL, as well as lymphoid accelerated or blast phase CML. Patients who had previously received 1 to 2 courses of chemotherapy with or without a TKI were able to enroll in the newly diagnosed cohort. Additionally, patients needed to be over 18 years of age, with a ECOG performance status of 0-1, and adequate hepatic function in order to enroll.
Patients with uncontrolled or active cardiovascular disease, including a history of myocardial infarction, cardiovascular accident, or revascularization within 3 months; congestive heart failure with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction; atrial of ventricular arrhythmia; a history of arterial or venous thromboembolism; or uncontrolled hypertension were not able to enroll on the study. Additional exclusion criteria included significant central nervous system (CNS) pathology with the exception of CNS leukemia.
Patients received a 30 mg induction dose of ponatinib and a standard dose of blinatumomab on a 4 weeks on, 2 weeks off schedule. From there, patients received up to 4 consolidation cycles of the regimen followed by maintenance ponatinib for 5 years, the dose of which decreased to 15 mg daily once patients achieved a CMR. All patients were given 12 doses of intrathecal chemotherapy with an altering administration of cytarabine and methotrexate.
The primary of end point of the trial was CMR rate in the frontline cohort, and CR/pathologic CR rate in the relapsed/refractory setting. Key secondary end points included event-free survival (EFS), OS, and safety.
To date, 20 frontline patients have been treated, 10 with relapsed/refractory disease, and 5 with CML-LBP, Short explained. The median age of the frontline cohort was 62 years [range, 34-83]. Among the 10 patients with relapsed/refractory Ph-positive ALL, 1 was primary refractory to [a] previous regimen, 4 were treated in first salvage, and 5 in second or later salvage. Among the 5 patients with CML-LBP, 3 had not received any prior therapy for blast phase disease, 1 was treated in first salvage, and 1 in second salvage.
Additional data indicated that the cohort of patients with CML-LBP had a CR or pathologic CR rate of 100%, as well as an MMR rate of 60%, and CMR rate of 40%. Moreover, the relapsed/refractory cohort achieved a rate of 88% in both MMR and CMR. In total, the overall patient population had a CR or pathologic CR rate of 96%, an MMR rate of 91%, and a CMR rate of 79%. No patients were reported to have an early death while on the study.
After the first cycle of treatment, the frontline ALL cohort had a CMR rate of 58%, an MMR rate of 26%, and 16% did not experience a response. Moreover, 75% of patients in the relapsed/refractory ALL cohort, and 20% in the CML-LBP cohort had a CMR after the first cycle, while 25% and 80% of patients from both cohorts did not respond, respectively.
Of the patients who experienced a CR or pathologic CR in the frontline ALL arm (n = 20), 1 died following CR due to post-procedural bleeding and hypovolemic shock, while 19 continue to experience ongoing responses without the need for stem cell transplantation. Notably, no patients in this have relapsed within 6 months.
In the relapsed/refractory ALL cohort, of the patients who responded (n = 9), 4 went on to receive HSCT, 1 of whom relapsed and died. Another patient relapsed and developed T315I and E255V mutations at relapse. Overall, 3 patients from this cohort are experiencing an ongoing response without the need for HSCT, while 1 patient died off study due to unknown causes.
In the CML-LBP arm, 2 responders (n = 5) relapsed, one of whom developed myeloid blast phase disease but is currently alive and in remission, while the other developed L248V and Y253H mutations at relapse but is currently alive and in remission following HSCT. Additionally, 3 patients continue to experience an ongoing response without HSCT.
After a median follow up of 12 months, the overall patient population is estimated to have 1- and 2-year EFS of 76% and 70%, respectively. Moreover, the estimated 1-year and 2-year OS were 93% and 80%, respectively. Notably, the relapsed/refractory AML cohort had an estimated 1- and 2-year EFS of 61% and 41%, respectively, as well as an estimated 1- and 2-year OS of 80% and 53%, respectively. Additionally, the CML-LBP arm had 60% estimated EFS rate at 1 and 2 years, respectively, as well as a 100% estimated 1- and 2-year rate.
Notably, there were no grade 4 or higher adverse effects (AEs) reported on the study. Common grade 3 AEs related to ponatinib in patients with ALL included elevated lipase (6%), alanine aminotransferase increase (ALT; 3%), cerebrovascular ischemia (3%), hypertension (3%) pancreatitis (3%), and deep vein thrombosis (3%). Grade 2 AEs included rash (11%), ALT increase (3%), and cerebrovascular ischemia (3%) and grade 1 AEs included rash (11%) and ALT increase (3%).
Although most AEs related to blinatumomab were grade 1 or 2 in patients with ALL, 1 patient developed grade 3 encephalopathy that was resolved by corticosteroids and treatment interruption, according to Short. Common grade 2 AEs included cytokine release syndrome (6%) and tremors (3%), as well as 1 patient who developed grade 1 tremors.

Polatuzumab With Rituximab and Lenalidomide Shown Safe and Effective for Relapsed/Refractory DLBCL – Targeted Oncology
Posted: June 6, 2021 at 1:58 am
In patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma treated with the triplet combinaton of polatuzumab vedotin (Polivy), rituximab and lenalidomide, therapy was considered to be safe and effective, according to data presented at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting.
In this first report of a triplet combination of polatuzumab, rituximab and lenalidomide, the triplet combination showed notable efficacy in a challenging-to-treat relapsed and refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma population, said Catherine S.M. Diefenbach, MD, associate professor of medicine, translational director of hematology and director of clinical lymphoma at Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone Health, during the virtual presentation.
In this phase 1b/2 trial, researchers analyzed the safety of this combination in 57 patients (median age, 71 years; 67% men) with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, were ineligible for or failed prior autologous stem cell transplantation and were treated with at least one prior anti-CD20-containing chemo-immunotherapy regimen. Efficacy of the treatment was assessed in 49 patients (median age, 72 years; 63% men).
The median age was 71, as is typical for this lymphoma, but the age range was from between 28 and 92 years, Diefenbach said.
Most patients in the safety and efficacy groups (86% and 84%, respectively) had stage 3 to 4 disease, nearly a quarter had two lines of therapy (28% and 27%) and nearly a third had three or more lines of therapy (33% and 31%). In addition, some patients underwent previous CAR T-cell therapy (5% and 6%, respectively) or prior bone marrow transplant (11% and 12%).
At induction, all patients received induction during 6 28-day cycles with 1.8 mg/kg of intravenous polatuzumab vedotin, 375 mg/m2 of intravenous rituximab and either a dose escalation of oral lenalidomide (between 10 mg and 20 mg) or the recommended daily dose of the drug on days 1 through 21. Patients who responded to the treatment at the end of induction received 6 months consolidation of 10 mg of lenalidomide (days 1 through 21, monthly) and 375 mg/m2 of rituximab (day 1 every 2 months).
Primary endpoints for this trial included the safety and tolerability of this triplet combination, in addition to complete response rates at the end of induction as assessed by positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Follow-up was conducted for a median of 9.7 months in the safety population and for 9.5 months in the efficacy population.
In the safety population, 75% of patients experienced grade 3 to 4 adverse events, with the most common including neutropenia (58%), thrombocytopenia (14%) and infections (14%). Adverse events led to 26% of patients undergoing a lenalidomide dose reduction and 67% had treatment interruption. One grade 5 adverse event related to the treatment neutropenic sepsis was reported.
The additional (adverse events) were not considered related to study drug, Diefenbach said. For example, a patient who had a fatal gastric hemorrhage who had been enrolled but not yet treated, and a patient with COVID-19 who contracted this disease 167 days after his last dose of the study therapy.
In the efficacy population, the overall response rate was 39% with a complete response rate of 29%. Ten percent of patients had a partial response. Median progression-free survival for the entire population was 6.3 months (95% CI, 4.5-9.7) with a median duration of remission of 8.1 months (95% CI, 4.7-not evaluated) and a median overall survival of 10.9 months (95% CI, 10.9-not evaluated).
However, for the patients who obtained a (complete response) this is 13 patients who were evaluable, the median progression-free survival at 9 months had not been reached, nor has the median overall survival, Diefenbach said. Nearly all patients remain in complete remission.
Additional follow-up is needed to assess the impact of consolidation therapy on the duration of long-term response, Diefenbach said. In summary, the triplet combination of polatuzumab, rituximab and lenalidomide represents a potential novel regimen for patients with transplant-ineligible relapsed and refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and is worthy of further study.

Breakthrough stem cell therapy may reverse life-threatening conditions in dogs – Study Finds
Posted: February 7, 2021 at 12:54 am
SAKAI, Japan Just like humans, mans best friend deals with all sorts of chronic and degenerative conditions as they age. For dogs however, scientists have fewer ways of reversing life-threatening illnesses compared to human patients. Now, a team in Japan has successfully developed a technique which creates new stem cells from a dogs blood. Their study opens the door for new therapies which can regenerate a dogs body just like stem cells do in people.
In humans, these baby cells have the potential to grow into a variety of specialized cells, an ability called pluripotency. After scientists transplant these stem cells into a patient, they guide their differentiation into the specific kind of cells which completes their task. The new cells can then regenerate damaged tissues, reversing the effect of various diseases. While stem cell research for humans is a widely studied topic, researchers say little work is done with pets.
The new study, led by Associate Professor Shingo Hatoya from Osaka Prefecture University, focuses on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in canine blood samples. Study authors say iPSCs are a type of stem cell which can be programmed from a developed cell. Scientists can do this by introducing specific genes into the cell. The genes code for specific proteins (transcription factors) which trigger the change from a developed cell into a pluripotent stem cell.
Another good thing about iPSCs is they multiply rapidly, providing a sustainable supply of usable stem cells for medical treatments.
We successfully established an efficient and easy generation method of canine iPSCs from peripheral blood mononuclear cells Dr. Hatoya in a university release.
The study authors call this a breakthrough in veterinary science. Hatoya hopes in the near future, it may be possible to perform regenerative medicinal treatments in dogs.
This isnt the first time scientists have experimented with iPSCs from canine blood cells. Researchers say these attempts used viral vectors to deliver the stem cell-triggering transcription factors.
In the new study, the Japanese team tested a different combination of factors to create pluripotency. Most importantly, researchers say they had to control how the reprogrammed cells multiplied in the host.
Scientists use viral vectors, which encode these transcription factors, to infect cells and convert them into iPSCs. Unfortunately, since these vectors merge with the hosts genetic material, these pluripotency factors can actually cause tumors if they are transplanted into a dog.
To avoid this, researchers created footprint-free stem cells using a special type of viral vector. This particular vector generates iPSCs without mixing with the hosts genes. It can also be automatically silenced by microRNAs in the cells. The OPU team grew these cells in a special environment which contained a small-molecule cocktail that enhances pluripotency. The results successfully produced cells which developed germ layers the basis of all organs.
Study authors say their findings provide a clear path to easy stem cell treatments for dogs. However, they add that their research may also have a ripple effect in the human medical world as well.
We believe that our method can facilitate the research involving disease modeling and regenerative therapies in the veterinary field, Dr. Hatoya says. Dogs share the same environment as humans and spontaneously develop the same diseases, particularly genetic diseases.
The team believes finding a cure for diseases in mans best friend may also open the door to curing illnesses still plaguing mankind.
The study appears in the journal Stem Cells and Development.

Stem cells’ efficacy confirmed in treating ototoxic hearing loss – Korea Biomedical Review
Posted: February 7, 2021 at 12:54 am
Researchers at the Catholic University of Korea St. Marys Hospital have recently proved the efficacy of bone marrow-derived stem cells to treat ototoxicity hearing loss, the hospital said Thursday.
The team, led by Professor Park Kyoung-ho of the Department of Otolaryngology, conducted an experiment on animal models with ototoxic sensorineural hearing, or sudden hearing loss.
They utilized Catholic MASTER cells, bone marrow stem cells developed by the Catholic Institute of Cell Therapy, to compare the stem cell injection group with the controlled group.
The result showed that animals started to recover their hearing after three weeks. Five weeks later, they recovered normal hearing at 8000Hz, 16000Hz and 32000Hz frequency.
Ototoxic hearing loss is caused when a person ingests chemicals or certain medications that adversely affect the inner ear functions. Major symptoms related to the illness are dizziness, false hearing, and hearing loss, which permanently defects hearing functions. Elders with such symptoms should have medical consultations as they are a high-risk group, the hospital said.
We have proved the efficacy of our bone marrow stem cells in recovering hearing, said Professor Park, who doubles as the director of the Stem Cell Institute. Through the results, we expect to provide new treatment opportunities for patients with hearing loss.
The test results were published in the Korean Journal of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery.
