Long-term Remissions Following CD20-directed Chimeric Antigen Receptor Adoptive T cell Therapy. Blood Cancer Discov 2024:745329. [PMID: 38747505 DOI: 10.1158/2643-3230.bcd-23-0263] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy produces high response rates in refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), but long-term data are minimal to date. Here, we present long-term follow-up of a pilot trial testing a CD20-targeting 3rd generation CAR in patients with relapsed B-cell lymphomas following cyclophosphamide-only lymphodepletion. Two of the 3 patients in the trial, with mantle cell lymphoma and follicular lymphoma, had remissions lasting more than 7 years, though they ultimately relapsed. The absence of B cell aplasia in both patients suggested a lack of functional CAR T cell persistence, leading to the hypothesis that endogenous immune responses were responsible for these long remissions. Correlative immunologic analyses supported this hypothesis, with evidence of new humoral and cellular anti-tumor immune responses proximal to clinical response time points. Collectively, our results suggest that CAR T cell therapy may facilitate epitope spreading and endogenous immune response formation in lymphomas.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by frequent MYC translocations. Sporadic MYC activation in the germinal center of genetically engineered Vk*MYC mice is sufficient to induce plasma cell tumors in which a variety of secondary mutations are spontaneously acquired and selected over time. Analysis of 119 Vk*MYC myeloma reveals recurrent copy number alterations, structural variations, chromothripsis, driver mutations, apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide (APOBEC) mutational activity, and a progressive decrease in immunoglobulin transcription that inversely correlates with proliferation. Moreover, we identify frequent insertional mutagenesis by endogenous retro-elements as a murine specific mechanism to activate NF-kB and IL6 signaling pathways shared with human MM. Despite the increased genomic complexity associated with progression, advanced tumors remain dependent on MYC. In summary, here we credential the Vk*MYC mouse as a unique resource to explore MM genomic evolution and describe a fully annotated collection of diverse and immortalized murine MM tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) after induction therapy improves disease-free survival for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). While the goal of ASCT is to render a minimal disease state, it is also associated with eradication of immunosuppressive cells, and we hypothesize that early introduction of immunotherapy post-ASCT may provide a window of opportunity to boost treatment efficacy. METHODS We conducted a phase 1 clinical trial to investigate the application of autologous lymphocyte infusion and anti-SLAMF7 monoclonal antibody, elotuzumab, after ASCT in patients with newly diagnosed MM previously treated with induction therapy. In addition to CD34+ stem cells, peripheral blood mononuclear cells were harvested prior to transplant and infused on day 3 after stem cell infusion to accelerate immune reconstitution and provide autologous natural killer (NK) cells that are essential to the mechanism of elotuzumab. Elotuzumab was administered starting on day 4 and then every 28 days after until 1 year post-ASCT. Cycles 4-12 were administered with standard-of-care lenalidomide maintenance. RESULTS All subjects were evaluated for safety, and 13 of 15 subjects completed the treatment protocol. At 1 year post-ASCT, the disease status of enrolled subjects was as follows: five stringent complete responses, one complete response, six very good partial responses, one partial response, and two progressive diseases. The treatment plan was well tolerated, with most grade 3 and 4 AEs being expected hematologic toxicities associated with ASCT. Correlative analysis of the immune microenvironment demonstrated a trend toward reduced regulatory T cells during the first 3 months post-transplant followed by an increase in NK cells and monocytes in patients achieving a complete remission. CONCLUSIONS This phase 1 clinical trial demonstrates that early introduction of immunotherapy after ASCT is well tolerated and shows promising disease control in patients with MM, accompanied by favorable changes in the immune microenvironment. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT02655458.

Abstract
Background Individualized treatment decisions for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) requires accurate risk stratification that takes into account patient-specific consequences of genetic abnormalities and tumor microenvironment on disease outcome and therapy responsiveness. Methods Previously, SYstems Genetic Network AnaLysis (SYGNAL) of multi-omics tumor profiles from 881 MM patients generated the mmSYGNAL network, which uncovered different causal and mechanistic drivers of genetic programs associated with disease progression across MM subtypes. Here, we have trained a machine learning (ML) algorithm on activities of mmSYGNAL programs within individual patient tumor samples to develop a risk classification scheme for MM that significantly outperformed cytogenetics, International Staging System, and multi-gene biomarker panels in predicting risk of PFS across four independent patient cohorts. Results We demonstrate that, unlike other tests, mmSYGNAL can accurately predict disease progression risk at primary diagnosis, pre- and post-transplant and even after multiple relapses, making it useful for individualized dynamic risk assessment throughout the disease trajectory. Conclusion mmSYGNAL provides improved individualized risk stratification that accounts for a patient's distinct set of genetic abnormalities and can monitor risk longitudinally as each patient's disease characteristics change.

Abstract
Importance Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a rare cancer treated with the tyrosine kinase inhibitors imatinib mesylate or sunitinib malate. In general, in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), access to these treatments is limited. Objective To describe the demographic characteristics, treatment duration, and survival of patients with GIST in LMICs treated with imatinib and sunitinib through The Max Foundation programs. Design, Setting, and Participants This retrospective database cohort analysis included patients in 2 access programs administered by The Max Foundation: the Glivec International Patient Assistance Program (GIPAP), from January 1, 2001, to December 31, 2016, and the Max Access Solutions (MAS) program, January 1, 2017, to October 12, 2020. Sixty-six countries in which The Max Foundation facilitates access to imatinib and sunitinib were included. Participants consisted of patients with approved indications for imatinib, including adjuvant therapy in high-risk GIST by pathologic evaluation of resected tumor or biopsy-proven unresectable or metastatic GIST. All patients were reported to have tumors positive for CD117(c-kit) by treating physicians. A total of 9866 patients received treatment for metastatic and/or unresectable disease; 2100 received adjuvant imatinib; 49 received imatinib from another source and were only included in the sunitinib analysis; and 53 received both imatinib and sunitinib through The Max Foundation programs. Data were analyzed from October 13, 2020, to January 30, 2024. Main Outcomes and Measures Demographic and clinical information was reported by treating physicians. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to estimate time to treatment discontinuation (TTD) and overall survival (OS). An imputation-based informed censoring model estimated events for patients lost to follow-up after treatment with adjuvant imatinib. Patients who were lost to follow-up with metastatic or unresectable disease were presumed deceased. Results A total of 12 015 unique patients were included in the analysis (6890 male [57.6%]; median age, 54 [range, 0-100] years). Of these, 2100 patients were treated with imatinib in the adjuvant setting (median age, 54 [range 8-88] years) and 9866 were treated with imatinib for metastatic or unresectable disease (median age, 55 [range, 0-100] years). Male patients comprised 5867 of 9866 patients (59.5%) with metastatic or unresectable disease and 1023 of 2100 patients (48.7%) receiving adjuvant therapy. The median OS with imatinib for unresectable or metastatic disease was 5.8 (95% CI, 5.6-6.1) years, and the median TTD was 4.2 (95% CI, 4.1-4.4) years. The median OS with sunitinib for patients with metastatic or unresectable GIST was 2.0 (95% CI, 1.5-2.5) years; the median TTD was 1.5 (95% CI, 1.0-2.1) years. The 10-year OS rate in the adjuvant setting was 73.8% (95% CI, 67.2%-81.1%). Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study of patients with GIST who were predominantly from LMICs and received orally administered therapy through the GIPAP or MAS programs, outcomes were similar to those observed in high-resource countries. These findings underscore the feasibility and relevance of administering oral anticancer therapy to a molecularly defined population in LMICs, addressing a critical gap in cancer care.

Abstract
SUMMARY Immune-related toxicities including cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) are common side effects of bispecific antibody and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies of hematologic malignancies. As anti-inflammatory therapy (the standard of care) is variably effective in mitigating these toxicities after onset, here we discuss emerging evidence for shifting the strategy from mitigation to prevention.

The signature of a T-cell response to KSHV persists across space and time in individuals with epidemic and endemic KS from Uganda. BIORXIV : THE PREPRINT SERVER FOR BIOLOGY 2024:2024.02.06.579223.

Abstract
Inadequate T-cell control of Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) infection predisposes to development of Kaposi sarcoma (KS), but little is known about the T-cell response to KSHV. Postulating that KS tumors contain abundant KSHV-specific T-cells, we performed transcriptional profiling and T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire analysis of tumor biopsies from 144 Ugandan adults with KS. We show that CD8+ T-cells and M2-polarized macrophages dominate the tumor micro-environment (TME). The TCR repertoire of KS tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) is shared across non-contiguous tumors and persists across time. Clusters of T-cells with predicted shared specificity for uncharacterized antigens, potentially encoded by KSHV, comprise ~25% of KS TIL, and are shared across tumors from different time points and individuals. Single-cell RNA-sequencing of blood identifies a non-proliferating effector memory phenotype and captured the TCRs in 14,698 putative KSHV-specific T-cells. These results suggest that a polyspecific KSHV-specific T-cell response inhibited by M2 macrophages exists within the KS TME, and provide a foundation for studies to define its specificity at a large scale.

Abstract
The role of the immune microenvironment in maintaining disease remission in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) is not well understood. In this study, we comprehensively profile the immune system in patients with newly diagnosed MM receiving continuous lenalidomide maintenance therapy with the aim of discovering correlates of long-term treatment response. Leveraging single-cell RNA sequencing and T cell receptor β sequencing of the peripheral blood and CyTOF mass cytometry of the bone marrow, we longitudinally characterize the immune landscape in 23 patients before and one year after lenalidomide exposure. We compare patients achieving sustained minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity to patients who never achieved or were unable to maintain MRD negativity. We observe that the composition of the immune microenvironment in both the blood and the marrow varied substantially according to both MRD negative status and history of autologous stem cell transplant, supporting the hypothesis that the immune microenvironment influences the depth and duration of treatment response.

Abstract
Despite advancements in profiling multiple myeloma (MM) and its precursor conditions, there is limited information on mechanisms underlying disease progression. Clincal efforts designed to deconvolute such mechanisms are challenged by the long lead time between monoclonal gammopathy and its transformation to MM. MM mouse models represent an opportunity to overcome this temporal limitation. Here, we profile the genomic landscape of 118 genetically engineered Vk*MYC MM and reveal that it recapitulates the genomic heterogenenity and life history of human MM. We observed recurrent copy number alterations, structural variations, chromothripsis, driver mutations, APOBEC mutational activity, and a progressive decrease in immunoglobulin transcription that inversely correlates with proliferation. Moreover, we identified frequent insertional mutagenesis by endogenous retro-elements as a murine specific mechanism to activate NF-kB and IL6 signaling pathways shared with human MM. Despite the increased genomic complexity associated with progression, advanced tumors remain dependent on MYC expression, that drives the progression of monoclonal gammopathy to MM.

γ-Secretase inhibitor in combination with BCMA chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy for individuals with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma: a phase 1, first-in-human trial. Lancet Oncol 2023; 24:811-822. [PMID: 37414012 PMCID: PMC10783021 DOI: 10.1016/s1470-2045(23)00246-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 07/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND γ-Secretase inhibitors (GSIs) increase B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) density on malignant plasma cells and enhance antitumour activity of BCMA chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in preclinical models. We aimed to evaluate the safety and identify the recommended phase 2 dose of BCMA CAR T cells in combination with crenigacestat (LY3039478) for individuals with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. METHODS We conducted a phase 1, first-in-human trial combining crenigacestat with BCMA CAR T-cells at a single cancer centre in Seattle, WA, USA. We included individuals aged 21 years or older with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, previous autologous stem-cell transplant or persistent disease after more than four cycles of induction therapy, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0-2, regardless of previous BCMA-targeted therapy. To assess the effect of the GSI on BCMA surface density on bone marrow plasma cells, participants received GSI during a pretreatment run-in, consisting of three doses administered 48 h apart. BCMA CAR T cells were infused at doses of 50 × 106 CAR T cells, 150 × 106 CAR T cells, 300 × 106 CAR T cells, and 450 × 106 CAR T cells (total cell dose), in combination with the 25 mg crenigacestat dosed three times a week for up to nine doses. The primary endpoints were the safety and recommended phase 2 dose of BCMA CAR T cells in combination with crenigacestat, an oral GSI. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03502577, and has met accrual goals. FINDINGS 19 participants were enrolled between June 1, 2018, and March 1, 2021, and one participant did not proceed with BCMA CAR T-cell infusion. 18 participants (eight [44%] men and ten [56%] women) with multiple myeloma received treatment between July 11, 2018, and April 14, 2021, with a median follow up of 36 months (95% CI 26 to not reached). The most common non-haematological adverse events of grade 3 or higher were hypophosphataemia in 14 (78%) participants, fatigue in 11 (61%), hypocalcaemia in nine (50%), and hypertension in seven (39%). Two deaths reported outside of the 28-day adverse event collection window were related to treatment. Participants were treated at doses up to 450 × 106 CAR+ cells, and the recommended phase 2 dose was not reached. INTERPRETATIONS Combining a GSI with BCMA CAR T cells appears to be well tolerated, and crenigacestat increases target antigen density. Deep responses were observed among heavily pretreated participants with multiple myeloma who had previously received BCMA-targeted therapy and those who were naive to previous BCMA-targeted therapy. Further study of GSIs given with BCMA-targeted therapeutics is warranted in clinical trials. FUNDING Juno Therapeutics-a Bristol Myers Squibb company and the National Institutes of Health.

Abstract
Most patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) do not achieve a durable remission after treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Here we report the clinical history of an exceptional responder to radiation and anti-program death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) monoclonal antibody, atezolizumab, for metastatic NSCLC who remains in a complete remission more than 8 years after treatment. Sequencing of the patient’s T cell repertoire from a metastatic lesion and the blood before and after anti-PD-L1 treatment revealed oligoclonal T cell expansion. Characterization of the dominant T cell clone, which comprised 10% of all clones and increased 10-fold in the blood post-treatment, revealed an activated CD8+ phenotype and reactivity against 4 HLA-A2 restricted neopeptides but not viral or wild-type human peptides, suggesting tumor reactivity. We hypothesize that the patient’s exceptional response to anti-PD-L1 therapy may have been achieved by increased tumor immunogenicity promoted by pre-treatment radiation therapy as well as long-term persistence of oligoclonal expanded circulating T cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Patients treated with chemotherapy (CT) and/or autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) are at risk for therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (tMN). Certain cytotoxic agents introduce mutations within distinct trinucleotide contexts resulting in a unique barcode for each exposed cell. We leveraged mutational signatures to investigate the role of CT in the genomic landscape of tMN with respect to antecedent clonal hematopoiesis (CH).
We analyzed 32 tMN and 2 tALL from 33 patients and interrogated for copy number abnormalities (CNA), structural variants (SV), single nucleotide variants (SNV), and mutational signatures. For 7 patients with tMN post-melphalan/ASCT, we investigated antecedent CH using targeted sequencing on pre-melphalan samples, including autograft products.
CH variants that became clonal in tumor were seen in 5/7 pre-melphalan/ASCT samples (TP53, RUNX1, NCOR1, NF1, CREBBP, DNMT3A, and PPM1D). Complex SV were seen in 7 tMNs; including chromothripsis in 6 (19.4%). In 4 cases, chromothripsis involved chromosome 19 with hyper-amplification of the SMARCA4 locus (≥5 copies). Mutational signature analysis revealed 6 known single base substitution (SBS) signatures in tMN including melphalan (SBS-MM1) and platinum signatures (SBS31, SBS35, and E-SBS37). TMNs with CT signatures had higher mutation burden than those without (p = 0.004). 17 patients with exposure to agents other than melphalan/platinum did not have increased mutational burden with respect to de novo AML (TCGA; NEJM, 2013).
All patients with prior platinum exposure (including tALL, n=9) had platinum SBS signatures while only 2 of 7 patients with prior melphalan/ASCT had a melphalan signature (SBS-MM1). Detection of CT signatures in bulk sequencing relies on one cell, with its barcode of mutations, to expand to clonal dominance. Given pre-existent CH, including in 3/3 autograft products, absence of a CT signature despite melphalan exposure implies progression by a clone that escaped CT exposure with stem-cell collection and reinfusion. Conversely, all platinum-exposed tAML had signature evidence of exposure confirming existence of CH prior to exposure and supporting post-CT single-cell expansion. TMNs from 3 patients exposed to sequential platinum and melphalan/ASCT had platinum but not melphalan signatures confirming single-cell expansion of the pre-tMN CH clone post-platinum but with escape from exposure to melphalan via leukapheresis. Chromothripsis events bore only non-duplicated CT-induced mutations, indicative of acquisition prior to, and not directly caused by, CT exposure.
These disparities suggest that ASCT provides a mechanism for CH clones to escape CT and re-engraft with transplant. Coupled with driver events accrued prior to CT, this suggest that CT-induced mutagenesis may be less important than other factors, such as CT-induced immunosuppression, in the expansion of pre-TMN CH clones.

Serial Analysis of the T-Cell Receptor β-Chain Repertoire in People Living With HIV Reveals Incomplete Recovery After Long-Term Antiretroviral Therapy. Front Immunol 2022; 13:879190.

Abstract
Long-term antiretroviral therapy (ART) in people living with HIV (PLHIV) is associated with sustained increases in CD4+ T-cell count, but its effect on the peripheral blood T-cell repertoire has not been comprehensively evaluated. In this study, we performed serial profiling of the composition and diversity of the T-cell receptor β-chain (TRB) repertoire in 30 adults with HIV infection before and after the initiation of ART to define its long-term impact on the TRB repertoire. Serially acquired blood samples from 30 adults with HIV infection collected over a mean of 6 years (range, 1-12) years, with 1-4 samples collected before and 2-8 samples collected after the initiation of ART, were available for analysis. TRB repertoires were characterized via high-throughput sequencing of the TRB variable region performed on genomic DNA extracted from unsorted peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Additional laboratory and clinical metadata including serial measurements of HIV viral load and CD4+ T-cell count were available for all individuals in the cohort. A previously published control group of 189 TRB repertoires from peripheral blood samples of adult bone marrow transplant donors was evaluated for comparison. ART initiation in PLHIV was associated with a sustained reduction in viral load and a significant increase in TRB repertoire diversity. However, repertoire diversity in PLHIV remained significantly lower than in the control group even after long-term ART. The composition of TRB repertoires of PLHIV after ART also remained perturbed compared to the control cohort, as evidenced by large persistent private clonal expansions, reduced efficiency in the generation of TRB CDR3 amino acid sequences, and a narrower range of CDR3 lengths. Network analysis revealed an antigen-experienced structure in the TRB repertoire of PLHIV both before and after ART initiation that was quite distinct from the structure of control repertoires, with a slight shift toward a more naïve structure observed after ART initiation. Though we observe significant improvement in TRB repertoire diversity with durable viral suppression in PLHIV on long-term ART, the composition and structure of these repertoires remain significantly perturbed compared to the control cohort of adult bone marrow transplant donors.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Multiple myeloma is a hematologic malignancy characterized by presence of abnormal clonal plasma cells in the bone marrow, with potential for uncontrolled growth causing destructive bone lesions, kidney injury, anemia, and hypercalcemia. Multiple myeloma is diagnosed in an estimated 34 920 people in the US and in approximately 588 161 people worldwide each year. OBSERVATIONS Among patients with multiple myeloma, approximately 73% have anemia, 79% have osteolytic bone disease, and 19% have acute kidney injury at the time of presentation. Evaluation of patients with possible multiple myeloma includes measurement of hemoglobin, serum creatinine, serum calcium, and serum free light chain levels; serum protein electrophoresis with immunofixation; 24-hour urine protein electrophoresis; and full-body skeletal imaging with computed tomography, positron emission tomography, or magnetic resonance imaging. The Revised International Staging System combines data from the serum biomarkers β2 microglobulin, albumin, and lactate dehydrogenase in conjunction with malignant plasma cell genomic features found on fluorescence in situ hybridization-t(4;14), del(17p), and t(14;16)-to assess estimated progression-free survival and overall survival. At diagnosis, 28% of patients are classified as having Revised International Staging stage I multiple myeloma, and these patients have a median 5-year survival of 82%. Among all patients with multiple myeloma, standard first-line (induction) therapy consists of a combination of an injectable proteasome inhibitor (ie, bortezomib), an oral immunomodulatory agent (ie, lenalidomide), and dexamethasone and is associated with median progression-free survival of 41 months, compared with historical reports of 8.5 months without therapy. This induction therapy combined with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation followed by maintenance lenalidomide is standard of care for eligible patients. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Approximately 34 920 people in the US and 155 688 people worldwide are diagnosed with multiple myeloma each year. Induction therapy with an injectable proteasome inhibitor, an oral immunomodulatory agent and dexamethasone followed by treatment with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and maintenance therapy with lenalidomide are among the treatments considered standard care for eligible patients.

High-Throughput Drug Screening and Multi-Omic Analysis to Guide Individualized Treatment for Multiple Myeloma. JCO Precis Oncol 2021; 5:PO.20.00442. [PMID: 34250400 PMCID: PMC8232547 DOI: 10.1200/po.20.00442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2020] [Revised: 01/14/2021] [Accepted: 02/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a genetically heterogeneous malignancy characterized by variable treatment responses. Although numerous drugs have been approved in recent years, the ability to predict treatment response and tailor individual therapy is limited by the absence of robust predictive biomarkers. The goal of this clinical trial was to use ex vivo, high-throughput screening (HTS) of 170 compounds to predict response among patients with relapsed or refractory MM and inform the next treatment decisions. Additionally, we integrated HTS with multi-omic analysis to uncover novel associations between in vitro drug sensitivity and gene expression and mutation profiles. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-five patients with relapsed or refractory MM underwent a screening bone marrow or soft tissue biopsy. Sixteen patients were found to have sufficient plasma cells for HTS. Targeted next-generation sequencing was performed on plasma cell-free DNA from all patients who underwent HTS. RNA and whole-exome sequencing of bone marrow plasma cells were performed on eight and seven patients, respectively. RESULTS Results of HTS testing were made available to treating physicians within a median of 5 days from the biopsy. An actionable treatment result was identified in all 16 patients examined. Among the 13 patients who received assay-guided therapy, 92% achieved stable disease or better. The expression of 105 genes and mutations in 12 genes correlated with in vitro cytotoxicity. CONCLUSION In patients with relapsed or refractory MM, we demonstrate the feasibility of ex vivo drug sensitivity testing on isolated plasma cells from patient bone marrow biopsies or extramedullary plasmacytomas to inform the next line of therapy.

KRD-PACE Mobilization for Multiple Myeloma Patients With Significant Residual Disease Before Autologous Stem-Cell Transplantation. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2020; 20:602-609. [PMID: 32457024 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2020.04.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Revised: 02/11/2020] [Accepted: 04/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bortezomib has been incorporated into thalidomide and dexamethasone provided with cisplatin, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (PACE) as an intensive regimen before autologous stem-cell transplantation for multiple myeloma (MM). We examined MM patients at our center who received chemomobilization with a regimen that substituted carfilzomib and lenalidomide for bortezomib and thalidomide (KRD-PACE). PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of 27 MM patients who received KRD-PACE for chemomobilization. Our analysis included patients who had circulating plasma cells (CPCs) by flow cytometry, ≥ 10% bone marrow plasma cells (BMPC), a monoclonal protein ≥ 1 g/dL, or an involved serum free light chain ≥ 10 mg/dL. RESULTS The most common indication for KRD-PACE was BMPC ≥ 10% in 16 patients (60%), followed by CPCs in 11 (41%). The median (range) age was 61 (35-69) years, and the median (range) BMPC before treatment was 10% (5%-47%). The overall response rate was 43%, and a median (range) of 20.24 (8.08-69.88) × 106 CD34+ cells/kg were collected. CPC clearance rate was 50%, and the median reduction in BMPC was 75%. Two patients had sinus bradycardia and 5 (19%) had neutropenic fever. CONCLUSION KRD-PACE is an effective therapy to mobilize peripheral blood stem cells in MM patients with residual disease burden. This regimen was successful at clearing CPCs and reducing BMPC burden, with an overall response rate of 43%. Despite theoretical concern regarding the combination of 3 cardiotoxic agents, we observed a low frequency of cardiac issues.

Abstract
5T4 (trophoblast glycoprotein, TPBG) is a transmembrane tumor antigen expressed on more than 90% of primary renal cell carcinomas (RCC) and a wide range of human carcinomas but not on most somatic adult tissues. The favorable expression pattern has encouraged the development and clinical testing of 5T4-targeted antibody and vaccine therapies. 5T4 also represents a compelling and unexplored target for T-cell receptor (TCR)-engineered T-cell therapy. Our group has previously isolated high-avidity CD8+ T-cell clones specific for an HLA-A2-restricted 5T4 epitope (residues 17-25; 5T4p17). In this report, targeted single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on 5T4p17-specific T-cell clones to sequence the highly variable complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) of T-cell receptor α chain (TRA) and β chain (TRB) genes. Full-length TRA and TRB sequences were cloned into lentiviral vectors and transduced into CD8+ T-cells from healthy donors. Redirected effector T-cell function against 5T4p17 was measured by cytotoxicity and cytokine release assays. Seven unique TRA-TRB pairs were identified. All seven TCRs exhibited high expression on CD8+ T-cells with transduction efficiencies from 59 to 89%. TCR-transduced CD8+ T-cells demonstrated redirected cytotoxicity and cytokine release in response to 5T4p17 on target-cells and killed 5T4+/HLA-A2+ kidney-, breast-, and colorectal-tumor cell lines as well as primary RCC tumor cells in vitro. TCR-transduced CD8+ T-cells also detected presentation of 5T4p17 in TAP1/2-deficient T2 target-cells. TCR-transduced T-cells redirected to recognize the 5T4p17 epitope from a broadly shared tumor antigen are of interest for future testing as a cellular immunotherapy strategy for HLA-A2+ subjects with 5T4+ tumors.

Abstract
Abstract 60 Background: Development of Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is strongly associated with immune dysfunction in the context of HIV infection, but little is known about T-lymphocyte responses against KS tumor cells or human herpesvirus-8, the viral cause of KS. Increasing evidence suggests that treatment response in KS is attributable in part to an antitumor immune response that is mediated by tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL). The aim of this work was to identify TIL characteristics that are associated with tumor regression in patients with KS who were treated with antiretroviral therapy and chemotherapy as well as to identify a molecular signature of response. Methods: High-throughput sequencing of the T-cell receptor β chain ( TRB) was used to define the repertoire of T cells that infiltrate up to two pretreatment and two post-treatment KS tumors and matched normal skin obtained from HIV-infected adults with KS who received care at the Uganda Cancer Institute. We compared TRB repertoire in serially collected tumors to identify TRB sequences carried in candidate tumor-reactive T cells. Results: TRB sequencing was performed on KS tumor and matched normal skin samples from 12 HIV-infected adults with KS who collectively demonstrated a range of treatment responses. Unique populations of T cells were identified in pretreatment tumors but not in normal skin in all patients, which suggested the presence of KS-specific T-cell responses. Durable complete response to treatment in one patient was associated with significant expansion of a small number of T-cell clones, one of which carried a TRB sequence that was associated with a public CD8+ Epstein-Barr virus–associated T-cell receptor. Conclusion: Understanding the immune response to KS through cellular and molecular dissection of TIL will provide important insights into KS biology and may ultimately guide new immune-based strategies to stage and treat this often-refractory cancer.

Abstract
Adoptively transferred tumor-specific cells can mediate tumor regression in cancers refractory to conventional therapy. Autologous polyclonal tumor-specific cytotoxic T cells (CTL) generated from peripheral blood and infused into patients with metastatic melanoma show enhanced persistence, compared to equivalent numbers of more extensively expanded monoclonal CTL, and are associated with complete remissions (CR) in select patients. We applied high-throughput T cell receptor Vβ sequencing (HTTCS) to identify individual clonotypes within CTL products, track them in vivo post-infusion and then deduce the pre-adoptive transfer (endogenous) frequencies of cells ultimately responsible for tumor regression. The summed in vivo post-transfer frequencies of the top 25 HTTCS-defined clonotypes originally detected in the infused CTL population were comparable to enumeration by binding of antigen peptide-HLA multimers, revealing quantitative HTTCS is a reliable, multimer-independent alternative. Surprisingly, the polyclonal CTL products were composed predominantly of clonotypes that were of very low frequency (VLF) in the endogenous samples, often below the limit of HTTCS detection (0.001%). In patients who achieved durable CRs, the composition of transferred CTLs was dominated (57-90%) by cells derived from a single VLF clonotype. Thus, HTTCS now reveals that tumor-specific CTL enabling long-term tumor control originate from endogenous VLF populations that exhibit proliferative/survival advantages. Along with results indicating that naïve cell populations are most likely to contain cells that exist at VLF within the repertoire, our results provide a strong rationale for favoring T cells arising from VLF populations and with early-differentiation phenotypes when selecting subset populations for adoptive transfer.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-dose melphalan and autologous stem cell transplantation (HDM/SCT) is an effective treatment modality for immunoglobulin light-chain (AL) amyloidosis; however, its application remains restricted to patients with good performance status and limited organ involvement. In recent years, the paradigm for AL amyloidosis has changed with the introduction of novel agents such as immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) and proteasome inhibitors (PIs). We hypothesized that use of novel agent induction regimens has improved outcomes for patients with AL amyloidosis undergoing HDM/SCT at our center. METHODS All patients with AL amyloidosis, age ≥18 years who underwent HDM/SCT between 2001 and 2014 at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and University of Washington Medical Center were included in this study. Any regimen administered within 6 months prior to HDM/SCT including an IMiD or a PI was considered a novel induction regimen. Use of induction regimen was evaluated in a Cox proportional hazard model for association with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Forty-five patients with AL amyloidosis underwent HDM/SCT. The median age was 57.2 years (range 39-74.4), 15 (33.3%) were women. The median number of organs involved was 2 (range 1-5), with 20 patients having only 1 (44.4%), 10 patients having 2 (22.2%), and 15 patients (33.3%) having ≥ 3 organs involved. Novel agent induction regimens were used prior to HDM/SCT in 21 patients (46.7%); these comprised PI in 13/21 (57.1%), IMiD alone in 6/21 (28.6%), PI and cyclophosphamide (CyBorD) in 3/21 (14.3%), and IMiD and PI in 3/21 (14.3%). Use of a novel agent induction regimen was associated with improved, but not OS. The 3-year PFS for patients who received a novel agent induction was 79%, while for those who did not was 53% (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.317, p = 0.048). The 3-year OS for patients who received novel agent induction regimens was 95%, while for those who did not was 71% (HR = 0.454, p = 0.247). DISCUSSION Our data suggest that use of a novel agent induction regimen including an IMiD or PI prior to HDM/SCT for patients with AL amyloidosis could improve outcomes, with improvement in PFS. Although these results are limited by sample size and lack of randomization, these results support possible further investigation of novel agent induction regimens in the context of a prospective clinical trial.

Abstract
In the past several years, immunotherapy has emerged as a viable treatment option for patients with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without actionable driver mutations that have progressed on standard chemotherapy. We are also beginning to understand the methods of immune evasion employed by NSCLC which likely contribute to the 20% response rate to immunotherapy. It is also yet unclear what tumor or patient factors predict response to immunotherapy. The objectives of this review are (1) review the immunogenicity of NSCLC (2) describe the mechanisms of immune evasion (3) summarize efforts to target the anti‐program death‐1 (PD‐1) and anti‐program death‐ligand 1(PD‐L1) pathway (4) outline determinants of response to PD‐1/PD‐L1 therapy and (5) discuss potential future areas for research.

Abstract
Posttransplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) effectively prevents graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), but its immunologic impact is poorly understood. We assessed lymphocyte reconstitution via flow cytometry (n = 74) and antigen receptor sequencing (n = 35) in recipients of myeloablative, HLA-matched allogeneic BM transplantation using PTCy. Recovering T cells were primarily phenotypically effector memory with lower T cell receptor β (TRB) repertoire diversity than input donor repertoires. Recovering B cells were predominantly naive with immunoglobulin heavy chain locus (IGH) repertoire diversity similar to donors. Numerical T cell reconstitution and TRB diversity were strongly associated with recipient cytomegalovirus seropositivity. Global similarity between input donor and recipient posttransplant repertoires was uniformly low at 1-2 months after transplant but increased over the balance of the first posttransplant year. Blood TRB repertoires at ≥3 months after transplant were often dominated by clones present in the donor blood/marrow memory CD8+ compartment. Limited overlap was observed between the TRB repertoires of T cells infiltrating the skin or gastrointestinal tract versus the blood. Although public TRB sequences associated with herpesvirus- or alloantigen-specific CD8+ T cells were detected in some patients, posttransplant TRB and IGH repertoires were unique to each individual. These data define the immune dynamics occurring after PTCy and establish a benchmark against which immune recovery after other transplantation approaches can be compared.

Adjusting DLCO for Hb and its effects on the Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-specific Comorbidity Index. Bone Marrow Transplant 2013; 48:1253-6.

Abstract
The Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-specific Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI) is used to counsel patients regarding the risk of transplantation and selection of conditioning regimens. Pulmonary disease, most frequently demonstrated by a decreased diffusion capacity of carbon monoxide (DLCO), is the most prevalent comorbidity captured by the HCT-CI. The HCT-CI was validated using the Dinakara method for adjusting DLCO for Hb, but our institution and others utilize the Cotes method. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of using the Cotes method rather than the Dinakara method on the HCT-CI score. We reviewed pre-transplant pulmonary function tests in 73 patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic SCT. Patients were stratified into low, intermediate or high-risk groups based on HCT-CI scores of 0, 1-2 or 3, respectively. We found that compared with the Dinakara method, the Cotes method increased the HCT-CI score in 45% of patients and resulted in total HCT-CI scores predictive of higher non-relapse mortality in 33% of patients. These results indicate that if an institution uses the Cotes method to adjust DLCO for Hb, their patients may be counseled to expect a higher risk of mortality than is actually predicted by the HCT-CI, and may be excluded from transplantation. Therefore, unless the HCT-CI is validated using other methods for correcting DLCO for Hb, the Dinakara method should be used.

Abstract
Micropthalmia-associated transcription factor (MITF) is the master regulator of melanocyte development, survival, and function. Frequent alteration in the expression of MITF is detected in melanoma, but the mechanism(s) underlying the alteration in expression have not been completely determined. In these studies, we have identified microRNA-137 (miR-137) as a regulator of MITF expression. The genomic locus of miR-137 at chromosome 1p22 places it in a region of the human genome previously determined to harbor an allele for melanoma susceptibility. Here, we show that expression of mature miR-137 in melanoma cell lines down-regulates MITF expression. Further, we have identified a 15-bp variable nucleotide tandem repeat located just 5' to the pre-miR-137 sequence, which alters the processing and function of miR-137 in melanoma cell lines.

Abstract
The stability and color of purified cyanidin-3-glucoside and raspberry juice extract in the presence of selected metal ions was investigated. Production of metal-anthocyanin complexes was suggested by changes in color of the samples as shown by L, a, and hue angle values. Complex formation was indicated by HPLC in raspberry juice samples treated with Sn++ but not in samples of purified cyanidin-3-glucoside. According to the colorimetric values, complex formation occurs with cyanidin-3-glucoside and A1+++ at pH 2.0 and 3.0 and with Sn++ at pH 4.0 and 3.0. Similar complex formation occurs with these metals and raspberry juice extract at the same respective pH values.
