Stemer G, Mittermayr T, Schnell-Inderst P, Wild C. Costs, challenges and opportunities of decentralised chimeric antigen receptor T-cell production: a literature review and clinical experts' interviews. Eur J Hosp Pharm 2024:ejhpharm-2024-004130. [PMID: 39209448 DOI: 10.1136/ejhpharm-2024-004130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
The objectives were to summarise the evidence and clinical experts' views comparing the use of decentralised produced chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies versus commercially available products, regarding drug costs, time to finalised product and other reported advantages, disadvantages, challenges and facilitators. A literature review according to the PRISMA guidelines was conducted in Medline, Embase and Trip databases. Publications were included if they reported information on cost estimates, time to finalised products and other outcomes of interest of a decentralised CAR T-cell production strategy. A structured interview guide was developed and used for qualitative expert interviews. Five experts were purposively selected, and interviews were either conducted face-to-face or online, and recorded for the purpose of transcription. Transcripts were analysed and categories and codes extracted. Reporting is based on the COREQ checklist for reporting qualitative research. Costs of decentralised produced CAR T-cells appear to be lower by a factor two to 14, compared with commercial products. But there is high uncertainty about this estimate, because it is unclear whether cost components included are comparable and due to the heterogeneity of the studies. The most commonly reported advantages were proximity to patients and decreased product risks and costs, whereas the continuing dependency on centrally manufactured reagents and specific characteristics of 'fresh' CAR T-cells are reported as disadvantages. Compliance with regulatory requirements is mentioned as the biggest challenge. The availability of closed-system production devices is reported as one main facilitator, as are clear commitment, secured financing and knowledge transfer from already experienced centres. Apparent cost differences open a field for healthcare decision-makers to discuss and justify investment costs for implementation of a complementing decentralised production programme and to realise other associated benefits of such a strategy, such as flexibility, patient proximity and expanding patient access.

Clinical evaluation and determinants of response to HBI0101 (BCMA CART) therapy in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. Blood Adv 2024; 8:4077-4088. [PMID: 38768428 PMCID: PMC11342176 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2024012967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024] Open
Abstract
ABSTRACT HBI0101 is an academic chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CART)-targeted to B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (R/RMM) and light chain amyloidosis. Herein, we present the phase 1b/2 results of 50 heavily pretreated patients with R/RMM dosed with 800 × 106 CART cells. Inclusion criteria were relatively permissive (i.e., performance status and baseline organ function) and consequently, approximately half of the enrolled patients would have been ineligible for pivotal clinical trials. The median time elapsed from patient enrollment until CART delivery was 25 days (range, 14-65). HBI0101-related toxicities included grade 1 to 3 cytokine release syndrome, grade 3 to 4 hematologic toxicities, and grade 1 to 2 immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. Responses were achieved in 90% of the patients, 56% achieved stringent and complete response, and 70% reached a minimal residual disease negativity. Within a median follow-up of 12.3 months, the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 11.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.2-14.6), and the overall survival was not reached (95% CI, 13.3 to not reached). Multivariable analysis on patient/disease and CART-related characteristics revealed that high-risk cytogenetic, extramedullary disease, and increased number of effector-memory T cells in CART products were independently associated with inferior PFS. In conclusion, comprehensive analyses of the parameters affecting the response to CART therapy are essential for improving patients' outcome. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT04720313.

Abstract
BACKGROUND T cells play a central role in the antitumor response. However, they often face numerous hurdles in the tumor microenvironment, including the scarcity of available essential metabolites such as glucose and amino acids. Moreover, cancer cells can monopolize these resources to thrive and proliferate by upregulating metabolite transporters and maintaining a high metabolic rate, thereby outcompeting T cells. METHODS Herein, we sought to improve T-cell antitumor function in the tumor vicinity by enhancing their glycolytic capacity to better compete with tumor cells. To achieve this, we engineered human T cells to express a key glycolysis enzyme, phosphofructokinase, in conjunction with Glucose transporter 3, a glucose transporter. We co-expressed these, along with tumor-specific chimeric antigen or T-cell receptors. RESULTS Engineered cells demonstrated an increased cytokine secretion and upregulation of T-cell activation markers compared with control cells. Moreover, they displayed superior glycolytic capacity, which translated into an improved in vivo therapeutic potential in a xenograft model of human tumors. CONCLUSION In summary, these findings support the implementation of T-cell metabolic engineering to enhance the efficacy of cellular immunotherapies for cancer.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematologic malignancy caused by the clonal expansion of immunoglobulin-producing plasma cells in the bone marrow and/or extramedullary sites. Common manifestations of MM include anemia, renal dysfunction, infection, bone pain, hypercalcemia, and fatigue. Despite numerous recent advancements in the MM treatment paradigm, current therapies demonstrate limited long-term effectiveness and eventual disease relapse remains exceedingly common. Myeloma cells often develop drug resistance through clonal evolution and alterations of cellular signaling pathways. Therefore, continued research of new targets in MM is crucial to circumvent cumulative drug resistance, overcome treatment-limiting toxicities, and improve outcomes in this incurable disease. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the landscape of novel treatments and emerging therapies for MM grouped by molecular target. Molecular targets outlined include BCMA, GPRC5D, FcRH5, CD38, SLAMF7, BCL-2, kinesin spindle protein, protein disulfide isomerase 1, peptidylprolyl isomerase A, Sec61 translocon, and cyclin-dependent kinase 6. Immunomodulatory drugs, NK cell therapy, and proteolysis-targeting chimera are described as well.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although chimeric antigen receptor T therapy (CAR-T) cells are an established therapy for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), there are no established models predicting outcome to identify patients who may benefit the most from CAR-T. PATIENTS AND METHODS This is an international retrospective observational study including patients with RRMM infused with currently available commercial or academically produced anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) CAR-T. We describe characteristics and outcomes in Europe (n = 136) and the United States (n = 133). Independent predictors of relapse/progression built a simple prediction model (Myeloma CAR-T Relapse [MyCARe] model) in the training cohort (Europe), which was externally validated (US cohort) and tested within patient- and treatment-specific subgroups. RESULTS The overall response rate was 87% and comparable between both cohorts, and complete responses were seen in 48% (Europe) and 49% (the United States). The median time to relapse was 5 months, and early relapse <5 months from infusion showed poor survival across cohorts, with the 12-month overall survival of 30% (Europe) and 14% (the United States). The presence of extramedullary disease or plasma cell leukemia, lenalidomide-refractoriness, high-risk cytogenetics, and increased ferritin at the time of lymphodepletion were independent predictors of early relapse or progression. Each factor received one point, forming the three-tiered MyCARe model: scores 0-1 (low risk), scores 2-3 (intermediate risk), and a score of 4 (high risk). The MyCARe model was significantly associated with distinct 5-month incidence of relapse/progression (P < .001): 7% for low-risk, 27% for intermediate-risk, and 53% for high-risk groups. The model was validated in the US cohort and maintained prognostic utility for response, survival, and outcomes across subgroups. CONCLUSION Outcomes of patients with RRMM after CAR-T are comparable between Europe and the United States. The MyCARe model may facilitate optimal timing of CAR-T cells in patient-specific subgroups.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has transformed the treatment landscape of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. The current Food and Drug Administration approved CAR T cell therapies idecabtagene vicleucel and ciltacabtagene autoleucel both target B cell maturation antigen (BCMA), which is expressed on the surface of malignant plasma cells. Despite deep initial responses in most patients, relapse after anti-BCMA CAR T cell therapy is common. Investigations of acquired resistance to anti-BCMA CAR T cell therapy are underway. Meanwhile, other viable antigenic targets are being pursued, including G protein-coupled receptor class C group 5 member D (GPRC5D), signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family member 7 (SLAMF7), and CD38, among others. CAR T cells targeting these antigens, alone or in combination with anti-BCMA approaches, appear to be highly promising as they move from preclinical studies to early phase clinical trials. This review summarizes the current data with novel CAR T cell targets beyond BCMA that have the potential to enter the treatment landscape in the near future.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM), the second most common hematologic malignancy, remains incurable, and its incidence is rising. Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T cell) therapy has emerged as a novel treatment, with the potential to improve the survival and quality of life of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (rrMM). In this systematic review and meta-analysis, conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines, we aim to provide a concise overview of the latest developments in CAR-T therapy, assess their potential implications for clinical practice, and evaluate their efficacy and safety outcomes based on the most up-to-date evidence. A literature search conducted from 1 January 2019 to 12 July 2023 on Medline/PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science identified 2273 articles, of which 29 fulfilled the specified criteria for inclusion. Our results offer robust evidence supporting CAR-T cell therapy's efficacy in rrMM patients, with an encouraging 83.21% overall response rate (ORR). A generally safe profile was observed, with grade ≥ 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) at 7.12% and grade ≥ 3 neurotoxicity at 1.37%. A subgroup analysis revealed a significantly increased ORR in patients with fewer antimyeloma regimens, while grade ≥ 3 CRS was more common in those with a higher proportion of high-risk cytogenetics and prior exposure to BCMA therapy.

Abstract
Light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is a rare plasma cell disorder characterized by the deposition of misfolded immunoglobulin light chains in target organs, leading to multi-organ dysfunction. Treatment approaches have historically mirrored but lagged behind those of multiple myeloma (MM). Recent advancements in MM immunotherapy are gradually being evaluated and adopted in AL amyloidosis. This review explores the current state of immunotherapeutic strategies in AL amyloidosis, including monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies, and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy. We discuss the unique challenges and prospects of these therapies in AL amyloidosis, including the exposure of frail AL amyloidosis patients to immune-mediated toxicities such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector-cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), as well as their efficacy in promoting rapid and deep hematologic responses. Furthermore, we highlight the need for international initiatives and compassionate programs to provide access to these promising therapies and address critical unmet needs in AL amyloidosis management. Finally, we discuss future directions, including optimizing treatment sequencing and mitigating toxicities, to improve outcomes for AL amyloidosis patients.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy is a promising and precise targeted therapy for cancer that has demonstrated notable potential in clinical applications. However, severe adverse effects limit the clinical application of this therapy and are mainly caused by uncontrollable activation of CAR-T cells, including excessive immune response activation due to unregulated CAR-T cell action time, as well as toxicity resulting from improper spatial localization. Therefore, to enhance controllability and safety, a control module for CAR-T cells is proposed. Synthetic biology based on genetic engineering techniques is being used to construct artificial cells or organisms for specific purposes. This approach has been explored in recent years as a means of achieving controllability in CAR-T cell therapy. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in synthetic biology methods used to address the major adverse effects of CAR-T cell therapy in both the temporal and spatial dimensions.

Abstract
Autologous patient-derived adoptive T-cell therapies have revolutionized the management of relapsed multiple myeloma (MM). However, the current manufacturing and quality control processes result in lengthy vein-to-vein time, making bridging therapy necessary for most patients. Yet the decision and choice of optimal bridging therapy are complex in the heavily pretreated relapsed MM patient. In this perspective piece, the authors provide their approach and considerations while selecting an optimal bridging regimen before autologous chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.

Endothelial Activation and Stress Index Score as a Prognostic Factor of Cytokine Release Syndrome in CAR-T Patients - A Retrospective Analysis of Multiple Myeloma and Large B-Cell Lymphoma Cohorts. Arch Immunol Ther Exp (Warsz) 2024; 72:aite-2024-0018.

Abstract
Endothelial Activation and Stress Index (EASIX) has been proposed as a prognostic factor of adverse events or survival in hematological malignancies. Endothelial dysfunction has been associated with complications following stem cell transplantation and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy. This retrospective cohort study evaluated the utility of the EASIX score as a prognostic factor of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in multiple myeloma/light-chain amyloidosis (MM/AL amyloidosis; N = 69) and large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) cohorts (N = 65). Occurrence of CRS grade ≥3 was the primary endpoint. For both cohorts, the EASIX and simplified EASIX (s-EASIX) scores were calculated at four different time points before CAR-T infusion to assess its prognostic value. In the MM/AL amyloidosis cohort, neither EASIX nor s-EASIX scores calculated at any time point were associated with the occurrence of CRS grade ≥3. In the LBCL cohort, EASIX and s-EASIX scores measured before lymphodepletion (EASIX-pre and s-EASIX-pre) showed a significant relationship with CRS grade ≥3 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.06 and OR = 1.05, respectively). The cutoff value of 1.835 for EASIX-pre was associated with 4.59-fold increased OR of CRS grade ≥3 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.13-21.84), whereas s-EASIX-pre cutoff equaled 2.134 and was associated with 4.13-fold increased OR of CRS grade ≥3 (95% CI: 1.01-17.93). However, after internal validation with bootstrapping, the significance was lost both for the EASIX-pre and s-EASIX-pre cutoff. The presented findings indicate that the EASIX scores fail to predict CRS in MM/amyloidosis CAR-T patients, whereas they can be implemented as CRS grade ≥3 predictors in LBCL CAR-T patients.

Abstract
The landscape of therapeutic measures to treat multiple myeloma has undergone a seismic shift since the dawn of the current century. This has been driven largely by the introduction of new classes of small molecules, such as proteasome blockers (e.g., bortezomib) and immunomodulators (e.g., lenalidomide), as well as by immunotherapeutic agents starting with the anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody daratumumab in 2015. Recently, other immunotherapies have been added to the armamentarium of drugs available to fight this malignancy. These include the bispecifics teclistamab, talquetamab, and elranatamab, and the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell products idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel). While the accumulated benefits of these newer agents have resulted in a more than doubling of the disease's five-year survival rate to nearly 60% and improved quality of life, the disease remains incurable, as patients become refractory to the drugs and experience relapse. This review covers the current scope of antimyeloma immunotherapeutic agents, both those in clinical use and in development. Included in the discussion are additional monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), bi- and multitargeted mAbs, and CAR T-cells and emerging natural killer (NK) cells, including products intended for "off-the-shelf" (allogeneic) applications. Emphasis is placed on the benefits of each along with the challenges that need to be surmounted if MM is to be cured.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is characterized by recurrent relapses. Consequently, patients receive multiple therapy lines, including alkylating agents and immune modulators, which have been associated with secondary malignancies such as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CART) therapy is efficacious in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MM. However, the long-term complications, particularly MDS, are not well understood. Whether CART therapy causes or promotes MDS has not been thoroughly investigated. In this study, we explored the causal relationship between MDS and CART therapy. We retrospectively examined the prevalence of MDS-related morphological and mutational changes before and after administration of CART therapy in five patients. Among them, four developed MDS after CART therapy, while one had pre-existing MDS prior to CART. None of the four patients who developed post-CART MDS showed morphological MDS changes prior to CART therapy. However, all four patients exhibited molecular alterations associated with MDS in their pre-CART as well as post-CART therapy bone marrow. No new mutations were observed. Our findings provide initial evidence suggesting that anti-BCMA CART therapy in MM may promote expansion of pre-existing MDS clones rather than causing development of new clones.
