Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy (CAR-T) has revolutionized treatment for relapsed/refractory (r/r) B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Robust biomarkers and a complete understanding of CAR-T cell function in the post-infusion phase remain limited. Here we used a 37-color spectral flow cytometry panel to perform high dimensional single cell analysis of post-infusion samples in 26 patients treated with CD28 co-stimulatory domain containing commercial CAR-T (CD28-CAR-T) for NHL and focused on computationally gated CD8+ CAR-T cells. We found that the presence of post-infusion PD-1+ CD8+ CAR-T cells at the Day 14 timepoint highly correlated with the ability to achieve complete response (CR) by 6 months. Further analysis identified multiple subtypes of CD8+ PD-1+ CAR-T cells including PD-1+ TCF1+ stem-like CAR-T cells and PD-1+ TIM3+ effector-like CAR-T cells that correlated with improved clinical outcomes such as response and progression free survival. Additionally, we identified a subset of PD-1+ CD8+ CAR+ T cells with effector-like function that was increased in patients who achieved a CR and was associated with Grade 3 or higher immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome. Here we identified robust biomarkers of response to CD28-CAR-T and highlight the importance of PD-1 positivity in CD8+ CAR-T cells post-infusion in achieving CR.

Abstract
Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) are forms of cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL) that pose significant challenges in their clinical management, particularly in refractory and advanced-stage disease. With the emergence of novel therapeutic modalities however, there are increasing opportunities to exploit the current understanding of pathophysiologic mechanisms of MF/SS for treatment. This review summarizes recent advances in the treatment of MF/SS, with a focus on monoclonal antibodies, immunotherapies, and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, including ongoing clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Relapsed or refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) remains a difficult treatment challenge. Although checkpoint inhibitors (CPI) have provided clinical benefit for these patients, responses are generally not durable, and progression eventually occurs. Discovering combination therapies which maximize the immune response of CPI therapy may overcome this limitation. We hypothesized that adding ibrutinib to nivolumab will lead to deeper and more durable responses in cHL by promoting a more favorable immune microenvironment leading to enhanced T-cell-mediated anti-lymphoma responses. METHODS We conducted a single arm, phase II clinical trial testing the efficacy of nivolumab in combination with ibrutinib in patients ≥18 years of age with histologically confirmed cHL who had received at least one prior line of therapy. Prior treatment with CPIs was allowed. Ibrutinib was administered at 560 mg daily until progression in combination with nivolumab 3 mg/kg IV every 3 weeks for up to 16 cycles. The primary objective was complete response rate (CRR) assessed per Lugano criteria. Secondary objectives included overall response rate (ORR), safety, progression free survival (PFS), and duration of response (DoR). RESULTS A total of 17 patients from two academic centers were enrolled. The median age of all patients was 40 (range 20-84). The median number of prior lines of treatment was five (range 1-8), including 10 patients (58.8%) who had progressed on prior nivolumab therapy. Most treatment related events were mild ( CONCLUSIONS Combined nivolumab and ibrutinib led to a CRR of 29.4% in R/R cHL. Although this study did not meet its primary efficacy endpoint of a CRR of 50%, likely due to enrollment of heavily pretreated patients including over half of who had progressed on prior nivolumab treatment, responses that were achieved with combination ibrutinib and nivolumab therapy tended to be durable even in the case of prior progression on nivolumab therapy. Larger studies investigating the efficacy of dual BTK inhibitor/immune checkpoint blockade, particularly in patients who had previously progressed on checkpoint blockade therapy, are warranted.

Abstract
Cancer therapies trigger diverse cellular responses, ranging from apoptotic death to acquisition of persistent therapy-refractory states such as senescence. Tipping the balance toward apoptosis could improve treatment outcomes regardless of therapeutic agent or malignancy. We find that inhibition of the mitochondrial protein BCL-xL increases the propensity of cancer cells to die after treatment with a broad array of oncology drugs, including mitotic inhibitors and chemotherapy. Functional precision oncology and omics analyses suggest that BCL-xL inhibition redirects the outcome of p53 transcriptional response from senescence to apoptosis, which likely occurs via caspase-dependent down-modulation of p21 and downstream cytostatic proteins. Consequently, addition of a BCL-2/xL inhibitor strongly improves melanoma response to the senescence-inducing drug targeting mitotic kinase Aurora kinase A (AURKA) in mice and patient-derived organoids. This study shows a crosstalk between the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway and cell cycle regulation that can be targeted to augment therapeutic efficacy in cancers with wild-type p53.

Abstract
CD3-epsilon(CD3e) immunotoxins (IT), a promising precision reagent for various clinical conditions requiring effective depletion of T cells, often shows limited treatment efficacy for largely unknown reasons. Tissue-resident T cells that persist in peripheral tissues have been shown to play pivotal roles in local and systemic immunity, as well as transplant rejection, autoimmunity and cancers. The impact of CD3e-IT treatment on these local cells, however, remains poorly understood. Here, using a new murine testing model, we demonstrate a substantial enrichment of tissue-resident Foxp3+ Tregs following CD3e-IT treatment. Differential surface expression of CD3e among T-cell subsets appears to be a main driver of Treg enrichment in CD3e-IT treatment. The surviving Tregs in CD3e-IT-treated mice were mostly the CD3edimCD62Llo effector phenotype, but the levels of this phenotype markedly varied among different lymphoid and nonlymphoid organs. We also found notable variations in surface CD3e levels among tissue-resident T cells of different organs, and these variations drive CD3e-IT to uniquely reshape T-cell compositions in local organs. The functions of organs and anatomic locations (lymph nodes) also affected the efficacy of CD3e-IT. The multi-organ pharmacodynamics of CD3e-IT and potential treatment resistance mechanisms identified in this study may generate new opportunities to further improve this promising treatment.

Abstract
Anti-CD3-epsilon (CD3e) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and CD3e immunotoxins (ITs) are promising targeted therapy options for various T-cell disorders. Despite significant advances in mAb and IT engineering, vascular leakage syndrome (VLS) remains a major dose-limiting toxicity for ITs and has been poorly characterized for recent "engineered" mAbs. This study undertakes a direct comparison of non-mitogenic CD3e-mAb (145-2C11 with Fc-silentTM murine IgG1: S-CD3e-mAb) and a new murine-version CD3e-IT (saporin-streptavidin (sZAP) conjugated with S-CD3e-mAb: S-CD3e-IT) and identifies their distinct toxicity profiles in mice. As expected, the two agents showed different modes of action on T cells, with S-CD3e-mAb inducing nearly complete modulation of CD3e on the cell surface, while S-CD3e-IT depleted the cells. S-CD3e-IT significantly increased the infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) into the tissue parenchyma of the spleen and lungs, a sign of increased vascular permeability. By contrast, S-CD3e-mAbs-treated mice showed no notable signs of vascular leakage. Treatment with control ITs (sZAP conjugated with Fc-silent isotype antibodies) induced significant vascular leakage without causing T-cell deaths. These results demonstrate that the toxin portion of S-CD3e-IT, not the CD3e-binding portion (S-CD3e-mAb), is the main driver of vascular leakage, thus clarifying the molecular target for improving safety profiles in CD3e-IT therapy.

Abstract
Extranodal natural killer/T(NK/T)-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that typically presents with an isolated nasal mass, but a sizeable minority present with advanced stage disease and have a significantly poorer prognosis. Those with limited disease are standardly treated with chemotherapy and radiation while those with advanced stage disease are treated with L-asparaginase containing chemotherapy regimens. The addition of modern radiation therapy techniques and the incorporation of L-asparaginase into chemotherapy regimens have significantly improved outcomes in this disease, but relapses and death from relapsed disease remain frequent. Given the high rate of relapse, several novel therapies have been evaluated for the treatment of this disease. In this review, we explore the current standard of care for ENKTL as well as novel therapies that have been evaluated for its treatment and the biologic understanding behind these therapies.

Abstract
T-Cell malignancies are a group of heterogeneous disorders composed of primary cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs), peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs), and T-cell leukemias, including T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T-LGLL). Cases of patients with combined T-cell malignancies and plasma cell dyscrasias (PCD) are reported in the literature, but these are mostly limited to case reports or small case series with <10 patients. Here, we described the clinical course of 26 patients and report baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes including overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and objective response rates (ORRs) in this unique population. There was no survival difference in patients with CTCL or T-LGLL and concomitant PCD when treated with standard therapy directed at the T-cell malignancy when compared to historical controls. However, patients with PTCL and concomitant PCD had significantly inferior outcomes with rapid progression and worse OS and PFS at 1.7 years (p=0.006) and 4.8 months (p=0.08), respectively, when compared to historical controls for patients with PTCL, although the limited number of patients included in this analysis precludes drawing definitive conclusions. Treatment directed at the T-cell malignancy resulted in the eradication of the PCD clone in multiple patients (15.4%) including one with multiple myeloma (MM) who experienced a complete response after starting therapy directed at the T-cell malignancy. For patients with T-cell malignancies and concomitant PCD, treatment with standard T-cell-directed therapies is recommended based on this analysis with continued follow-up and monitoring of the concomitant PCD. Further studies are needed to definitively elucidate the increased risk of relapse in patients with PTCL and concomitant PCD, and larger, multi-center cohorts are needed to validate these findings across T-cell malignancies and PCDs.

Abstract
Extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is an aggressive, rare lymphoma of natural killer (NK) cell origin with poor clinical outcomes. Here we used phenotypic and molecular profiling, including epigenetic analyses, to investigate how ENKTL ontogeny relates to normal NK-cell development. We demonstrate that neoplastic NK cells are stably, but reversibly, arrested at earlier stages of NK-cell maturation. Genes downregulated in the most epigenetic immature tumors were associated with polycomb silencing along with genomic gain and overexpression of EZH2. ENKTL cells exhibited genome-wide DNA hypermethylation. Tumor-specific DNA methylation gains were associated with polycomb-marked regions, involving extensive gene silencing and loss of transcription factor binding. To investigate therapeutic targeting, we treated novel patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models of ENKTL with the DNA hypomethylating agent, 5-azacytidine. Treatment led to reexpression of NK-cell developmental genes, phenotypic NK-cell differentiation, and prolongation of survival. These studies lay the foundation for epigenetic-directed therapy in ENKTL. SIGNIFICANCE Through epigenetic and transcriptomic analyses of ENKTL, a rare, aggressive malignancy, along with normal NK-cell developmental intermediates, we identified that extreme DNA hypermethylation targets genes required for NK-cell development. Disrupting this epigenetic blockade in novel PDX models led to ENKTL differentiation and improved survival. This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 85.

Abstract
Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are rare non-Hodgkin lymphomas with a generally indolent course managed with topical, skin-directed therapies. A small subset, however, will progress to advanced stage disease necessitating systemic therapy for disease control. Currently approved therapies have low response rates and generally short durations of response. Novel therapies, therefore, are urgently needed to address this unmet need. In this review, the mechanisms of CTCL pathogenesis and progression, including the role of the tumor microenvironment and molecular alterations, are summarized. Based on these biologic insights, novel therapies currently under investigation and those with a strong preclinical biologic rationale including T cell and macrophage checkpoint inhibitors, epigenetic regulators, targeted antibodies, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and apoptosis modulating therapies are discussed.

Abstract
Abstract
Our recent study showed that human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hMSCs) were activated to express TRAIL by exposure to TNF-α. These TRAIL expressing hMSCs effectively induced apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 (MDA) cells in vitro and in vivo. TRAIL was further up-regulated by RNA released by dead MDA cells in a TLR3-dependent manner. Here, we show that the further increase of TRAIL in hMSCs was also mediated by feed-forward stimulation of AIM2 or IFIH1 by DNA and RNA released from dead MDA cells. Poly(dA:dT), a synthetic ligand for AIM2, most effectively activated hMSCs to express TRAIL and increased the killing efficacy of hMSCs in MDA cells compared to TNF-α or poly(I:C), a synthetic ligand for TLR3 or IFIH1. Furthermore, weekly infusions of hMSCs pre-activated with TNF-α and poly(dA:dT) effectively inhibited the progression of lung tumor formation in mice, compared to TNF-α pre-activated hMSCs. Such anti-tumorigenic effect of hMSCs upon activation with TNF-α and poly(dA:dT) was enhanced when combined with chemotherapeutic drug, doxorubicin and thereby, this combination treatment significantly reduced the size of tumor burden in mice compared to TNF-α pre-activated hMSC treatment. These results suggest that treatment of pre-activated hMSCs combined with doxorubicin enhances their tumor-suppressive properties and may provide a potential novel therapy for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Integrins are heterodimeric cell-surface molecules, which act as the principle mediators of molecular dialog between a cell and its extracellular matrix environment. In addition to their structural functions, integrins mediate signaling from the extracellular space into the cell through integrin-associated signaling and adaptor molecules such as FAK (focal adhesion kinase), ILK (integrin-linked kinase), PINCH (particularly interesting new cysteine-histidine rich protein) and Nck2 (non-catalytic (region of) tyrosine kinase adaptor protein-2). Via these molecules, integrin signaling tightly and cooperatively interacts with receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) signaling to regulate survival, proliferation and cell shape as well as polarity, adhesion, migration and differentiation. In the heart and blood vessels, the function and regulation of these molecules can be partially disturbed and thus contribute to cardiovascular diseases such as cardiac hypertrophy and atherosclerosis. In this review, we discuss the primary mechanisms of action and signaling of integrins in the cardiac and vascular system in normal and pathological states, as well as therapeutic strategies for targeting these systems (1).
