In recent years, China has made significant progress in medical innovation, especially in the field of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, dramatically changing the landscape of treatment for malignant blood cancers. Recently, a team of medical professors from Zhejiang, China, released the results of a clinical trial demonstrating the breakthrough effectiveness of fourth-generation anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (R/R LBCL). The study, published in the renowned journal *Cell Discovery* (“Safety and feasibility of anti-CD19 CAR T cells expressing inducible IL-7 and CCL19 in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma”), sheds light on this innovative approach.

**New Highlights of CAR-T Therapy**

Traditional anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy has already shown excellent efficacy in treating blood cancers like R/R LBCL, but tumor relapse remains a significant challenge. To address this, Chinese researchers have developed a new fourth-generation CAR-T cell therapy that co-expresses two cytokines, IL-7 and CCL19. These cytokines enhance the activity of immune cells, improving CAR-T cells’ anti-tumor effects and extending patient survival.

**Efficacy and Potential**

The Chinese medical team included 39 patients, aged 29 to 73, in this study. They received a single infusion of the fourth-generation anti-CD19 CAR-T cells co-expressing IL-7/CCL19. The results showed that within three months of treatment, the overall response rate (ORR) reached 79.5%, with a complete response rate (CR) of 56.4%. This therapy also demonstrated a notable long-lasting effect, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 13 months, and an estimated two-year overall survival rate (OS) of 53.8%.

The study found that the expansion of CAR-T cells in the blood and plasma levels of IL-7/CCL19 were closely associated with clinical outcomes. Higher CAR-T cell expansion and peak concentrations of IL-7/CCL19 were linked to better overall survival (OS), further confirming that this combination can enhance CAR-T cells’ anti-tumor potential.

**Why Is This Study So Important?**

The introduction of this new CAR-T therapy in China marks a significant leap forward in cancer treatment. It not only induces long-lasting remission but also significantly extends patient survival, with manageable safety, offering new hope to patients facing resistant blood cancers. China’s rapid advancements in CAR-T technology showcase its growing influence in the global biotechnology sector.

#CSCO #CSCO2024 #Lymphoma #CART #LBCL #RRLBCL #ChinaCAR-T

At the 27th Annual Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) Conference, held in Xiamen, China, CAR-T therapy took center stage as a key focus for the treatment of large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). As a Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, this innovative approach is revolutionizing the treatment of relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (R/R LBCL), offering new hope for patients where traditional therapies have been less effective.

### Breakthroughs in CAR-T Therapy for LBCL

As a major innovation in immunotherapy, CAR-T therapy has shown remarkable efficacy in treating R/R LBCL. Clinical data indicates that about one-third of R/R LBCL patients can achieve long-term remission or even cure through CAR-T therapy. Notably, Axicabtagene ciloleucel (Axi-cel), developed by Fosun Kite Biotechnology, is the first domestically approved CD19-targeted autologous CAR-T product in China. Six-year follow-up results revealed that the two-year overall survival rate was 50.5%, and the six-year lymphoma event-free survival rate was 33.5%.

Meanwhile, Relma-cel, a CAR-T product independently developed by JW Therapeutics in China, has also achieved impressive results. Two-year follow-up data showed a median duration of response of 20.3 months, further highlighting China’s growing research and manufacturing strength in the CAR-T therapy field.

### CAR-T Therapy Expands from Third-Line to Second-Line Use

While CAR-T therapy was initially used only for patients who had failed multiple lines of treatment, it is now being increasingly applied in second-line settings. Recent studies have shown that CAR-T therapy outperforms traditional high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in certain patient groups. For example, the ZUMA-7 study demonstrated that Axi-cel significantly improved event-free survival (EFS) for LBCL patients treated in the second-line setting, with a median EFS of 8.3 months, compared to 2 months in the ASCT group.

As more research progresses, CAR-T therapy has been recommended by leading clinical guidelines, such as the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), for use in patients with primary refractory or early relapsing LBCL. This shift underscores CAR-T’s growing role in earlier stages of treatment, providing more therapeutic options for patients.

### Challenges and Future Prospects

In the exploration of CAR-T as a first-line treatment, promising results are beginning to emerge. The ZUMA-12 study evaluated the use of Axi-cel in high-risk LBCL patients in the first-line setting, with a three-year follow-up showing an overall survival rate of 90.6%. These findings suggest that CAR-T therapy could become an important treatment option for high-risk patients even in the first-line setting.

### China’s Leading Role in CAR-T Therapy

China is rapidly emerging as a global leader in the development and commercialization of CAR-T therapy. With domestically developed products like Axi-cel and Relma-cel achieving significant progress both in China and globally, China’s competitive edge in this field is becoming increasingly evident. As the technology matures and more clinical data are released, the future of CAR-T therapy in LBCL treatment looks exceptionally bright.

This study, titled “Allogeneic CD5-specific CAR-T Therapy for Relapsed/Refractory T-ALL: A Phase 1 Trial,” demonstrated the potential of CD5 CAR-T cells in treating relapsed/refractory acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R T-ALL).

### Innovative Therapy Brings Hope

For a long time, patients with relapsed/refractory T-ALL have lacked effective treatment options and faced a poor prognosis. In recent years, CD7 CAR-T cell therapy has shown some efficacy in these patients, but CD7-negative relapse remains a significant challenge. This study focuses on evaluating the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of CD5 CAR-T cells, offering new insights for future treatments.

The study included 19 patients, most of whom had previously received CD7 CAR-T therapy. Results showed that this therapy was safe, with no dose-limiting toxicity observed, and adverse events were primarily manageable hematologic toxicity. In terms of efficacy, all patients achieved complete remission within 30 days of treatment. The study also demonstrated, for the first time, the persistence of CD5 CAR-T cells in the body and their ability to eliminate CD5+ T cells, indicating strong anti-tumor activity.

### Breakthrough in Treating Relapsed Patients

In addition to safety and efficacy, the research team explored the coexistence of CD7 CAR-T and CD5 CAR-T cells and studied immune cell changes in the patients. For those who relapsed after CD7 CAR-T treatment with CD7-negative cells, CD5 CAR-T offered a new salvage therapy, providing additional treatment options for such patients.

### Multidisciplinary Collaboration Drives Clinical Progress

Unlike CAR-T therapies for B-cell tumors, treating T-cell malignancies poses more challenges, particularly in controlling immune deficiencies.

Multiple myeloma remains a difficult-to-cure disease, and every year, countless patients around the world face this devastating diagnosis. While treatment options have improved in recent years, and patients’ survival times have extended, drug resistance remains a significant challenge. For patients who have experienced multiple relapses and are resistant to various treatments, the future can seem bleak. Fortunately, with the emergence of **BCMA CAR-T cell therapy**, a new ray of hope is illuminating the path for these patients.

This is the story we’re sharing today, about a 76-year-old female patient who regained control of her life through CAR-T therapy.

#### The First Encounter with the Disease

In 2020, this Chinese 76-year-old woman noticed a decline in appetite and a rapid weight loss, accompanied by persistent rib pain. She had no idea that these symptoms were early signs of multiple myeloma. After several medical tests, her Chinese doctors confirmed the diagnosis: 31% of her bone marrow cells were plasma cells, her M-protein levels reached 85.7 g/L, and calcium levels in her blood were abnormally high. Multiple bones throughout her body also showed signs of significant damage.

The diagnosis left the patient shocked and confused. Multiple myeloma wasn’t her first health challenge; she also had a history of Parkinson’s disease. However, she remained hopeful, believing that with the right treatment, her condition could be controlled. But fate had other plans.

 

#### The Struggle and Relapse

At the beginning of 2023, the patient’s condition relapsed rapidly. Due to a prolonged lack of regular treatment, her disease worsened, and she became resistant to many standard therapies. After extensive tests, her medical team discovered that she had a high-risk mSMART 3.0 profile, with genetic abnormalities including 1q21 amplification and a t(4;14) translocation, making her prognosis extremely poor. She was now considered a “triple-refractory” patient, resistant to three main treatment categories.

Faced with this complex and challenging situation, the Chinese doctors didn’t give up. After multiple discussions and research, they recommended a cutting-edge therapy — **BCMA CAR-T cell therapy**. This treatment involves modifying the patient’s immune cells to target and destroy cancer cells. However, to undergo this advanced therapy, the patient first needed to undergo **bridging treatment** to reduce the tumor burden in her body.

 

#### Bridging Treatment: A Turning Point

To prepare for CAR-T therapy, the Chinese doctors initially prescribed the **DKD regimen**, a combination therapy intended to quickly reduce the cancer cell load. However, the first treatment cycle didn’t bring significant improvement, and her free light chain levels remained high. Both the patient and her family felt disappointed, but the Chinese doctors acted quickly, switching to the **KAD regimen**, which included **liposomal doxorubicin** to further enhance the treatment’s effectiveness.

This adjustment brought immediate results. After a few weeks, her free light chain levels began to drop, and her condition showed partial remission (PR). This meant she was finally ready for CAR-T cell therapy.

#### The Miracle of CAR-T Therapy

CAR-T therapy is a breakthrough technology where the patient’s immune cells are extracted, genetically modified to recognize and destroy cancer cells, and then reintroduced into the body. These engineered cells act like precision-guided weapons, specifically targeting her cancer cells.

The patient responded positively to the treatment. Within just a few weeks, her condition was significantly controlled, with results showing a very good partial response (VGPR). For such a complex case of relapsed and refractory disease, this was a major success.

 

#### The Significance of the Story

This patient’s story highlights China’s latest advancements in the treatment of multiple myeloma. The use of **carfilzomib-based bridging therapy** paved the way for CAR-T therapy, successfully giving a patient with a poor prognosis a new chance at life. For those facing the dual challenges of drug resistance and relapse, **BCMA CAR-T therapy** offers not just a new treatment option, but a lifeline.

The product that has renewed hope for this 76-year-old Chinese woman is a BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy that has already been launched in China. China is changing the fate of patients worldwide through advanced cancer treatments. Notably, in the field of CAR-T technology related to hematologic tumors and multiple myeloma, two BCMA CAR-T products have been approved in China. Especially commendable is Reindeer Bio’s independently developed fully human BCMA product, FUCASO, which has achieved an astonishing complete remission (CR) rate of 82.4%, the highest among all globally approved products. An increasing number of foreign multiple myeloma patients are now seeking treatment in China to access better therapies at more affordable prices.

💪 Chinese medical scientists have made a major breakthrough in treating autoimmune diseases with revolutionary CAR-T therapy. This study, conducted by scientists from three Chinese universities, was published in the prestigious journal *Cell* on October 04, 2024. It is the first study to use universal CAR-T cells derived from healthy donors, successfully helping three autoimmune disease patients achieve long-term remission. This marks a new era in treating difficult-to-treat autoimmune diseases globally.

📈 Traditional CAR-T therapies are primarily used to treat cancer, relying on extracting immune cells from patients, modifying them genetically, and reinfusing them—an expensive and complex process. However, the Chinese research team developed a next-generation CAR-T therapy that uses gene-editing technology to modify donor-derived T cells. These cells can be mass-produced and are ready for immediate use. This new approach not only significantly reduces treatment costs but also shortens the preparation time.

In this study, three patients with severe autoimmune diseases received the universal CAR-T therapy, including a 57-year-old male patient, Mr. Gong, who suffered from systemic sclerosis. Just three days after treatment, his skin showed noticeable improvement, and he regained movement in his fingers. Two weeks later, he returned to work. Now, over a year of follow-up later, Mr. Gong’s condition remains stable, and he says he “feels great.” This demonstrates the therapy’s potential for long-term effectiveness and safety.

The development of this next-generation CAR-T therapy uses CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology, allowing the modified cells to target and eliminate B cells—critical players in various autoimmune diseases. After treatment, the diseased B cells disappeared from patients, and healthy B cells regenerated, all without the occurrence of common severe side effects like cytokine release syndrome.

This achievement not only brings new hope for autoimmune disease treatment but also paves the way for future applications of CAR-T cell therapy. As clinical trials continue, more patients are expected to benefit from this groundbreaking treatment.

CAR-T therapy has reached another breakthrough with the introduction of ssCART-19, a new treatment that leverages IL-6 gene silencing technology to significantly reduce side effects, particularly when treating relapsed/refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/r ALL). Unlike traditional CAR-T therapies, ssCART-19 drastically lowers the risks of severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS).

In the latest clinical trials, ssCART-19 demonstrated outstanding safety, with no patients experiencing ICANS, marking a milestone in CAR-T therapy safety. Among the 17 patients treated, 58.8% showed a significant increase in cell counts, and no cases of Grade 4 or higher CRS were reported. Additionally, ssCART-19 achieved an overall response rate (ORR) of 87.5% within three months, with nearly 63% of patients reaching complete remission.

The latest research also highlights that ssCART-19 outperforms traditional CAR-T products (cCART-19) in both safety and efficacy. Compared to conventional therapies, ssCART-19 significantly reduced the incidence of severe CRS, neutropenia, and ICANS, achieving an ORR of 91.5%. With these impressive results, ssCART-19 is expected to become a groundbreaking option for treating r/r ALL, offering new hope, especially for patients with central nervous system leukemia (CNSL).

Developed by a Chinese biopharmaceutical company, ssCART-19 has gained widespread recognition on the international stage, receiving Orphan Drug designation from the U.S. FDA and being listed as a breakthrough therapy in China. ssCART-19 offers a new treatment option for patients previously excluded from CAR-T therapy, greatly enhancing their chances of survival.

Stay tuned for more updates on how ssCART-19 is transforming cancer immunotherapy.

    In June 2024, 13-year-old Qingqing experienced a major turning point in her life. A year after being diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), she received innovative CAR-T therapy at Shanghai Children’s Medical Center and successfully achieved disease remission. SLE, often referred to as the “incurable cancer,” is an autoimmune disease that affects millions of people worldwide, severely damaging the brain, lungs, kidneys, and blood system. Even when not in an acute flare, patients often suffer from chronic symptoms such as fatigue, rashes, pain, and fever.

    Qingqing’s treatment marks a significant breakthrough in the global fight against SLE. Previously, SLE patients could only rely on lifelong medications, such as steroids and immunosuppressants, to control the disease and prevent severe complications. However, these drugs often come with side effects and long-term organ damage. Qingqing’s case has offered the world new hope. A team led by Dr. Li Benshang, chief physician of the Hematology and Oncology Department, and Dr. Yin Lei, head of the Nephrology Department, pioneered the use of CAR-T therapy in SLE treatment and initiated a clinical study. After just two months of treatment, Qingqing’s condition has fully gone into remission, and all medications were discontinued.

    CAR-T therapy was originally used in cancer treatment by extracting a patient’s T cells and genetically modifying them to recognize and kill abnormal cells in the body. In the treatment of SLE, CAR-T therapy eliminates the abnormal plasma cells producing autoantibodies, effectively “resetting” the patient’s immune system and addressing the root cause of the disease.

    Qingqing’s success story is not only a milestone in China’s CAR-T technology but also a major leap forward in the global treatment of autoimmune diseases like SLE. Since the first CAR-T treatment cured an SLE patient in 2021, numerous clinical trials have been conducted worldwide, and several Chinese hospitals have also achieved success. However, while early results are encouraging, further research and validation are needed to confirm the long-term safety and efficacy of the treatment.

    With 20% of the global population affected by various types of autoimmune diseases, CAR-T therapy holds the potential to bring new life to millions of patients. China’s ongoing research and international collaboration in this field offer unprecedented hope for overcoming persistent diseases like SLE.

In the global cancer treatment landscape, the advancements in CAR-T cell therapy are remarkable, particularly in the treatment of relapsed and refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL). China’s CAR-T therapy, Relma-cel, has emerged as a new beacon of hope for patients, delivering deep and lasting remission for those who have undergone multiple lines of treatment.

Mantle Cell Lymphoma: A Complex and Challenging Disease

Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) is a subtype of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) originating from B cells, accounting for 6% to 8% of all NHL cases. The disease typically affects older adults, and most patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage with poor prognostic factors. Despite the availability of various treatments, including Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors (BTKi), MCL remains difficult to cure, and patients often face recurrence or progression of the disease.

Relma-cel: A New Hope for Relapsed/Refractory MCL

In China, Relma-cel, a novel CAR-T cell therapy, was approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in August 2024 for the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory MCL who have failed multiple lines of therapy. This therapy offers a groundbreaking treatment option for MCL patients.

A Case Study: Deep Remission Achieved with CAR-T Therapy

A 51-year-old male MCL patient, after multiple treatment failures, eventually achieved complete remission through the CAR-T therapy Relma-cel. Diagnosed in 2014, the patient underwent R-CHOP chemotherapy, Rituximab-targeted therapy, as well as BTKi and PI3K inhibitor treatments. However, the disease continued to relapse with poor prognosis. Finally, in 2022, the patient achieved deep and lasting remission through CAR-T therapy. After CAR-T cell infusion, the patient reached complete remission within just one month and remained in remission for 22 months of follow-up.

Expert Commentary: The Future of CAR-T Therapy

Professor Li Ping from Tongji Hospital, Tongji University, highlighted that CAR-T cell therapy has broken through the limitations of traditional treatments for relapsed/refractory MCL, offering new hope for high-risk patients. For those who cannot benefit from conventional treatments, the introduction of CAR-T therapy is crucial, especially when applied early in the frontline treatment stage to maximize its efficacy.

Based on the latest clinical research data, Relma-cel has shown encouraging complete remission rates (67.8%) and objective response rates (81.36%) in treating relapsed/refractory MCL patients. These findings further underscore the importance of CAR-T cell therapy in patients who have failed BTKi treatment, positioning it as a potential first-choice treatment for these patients.

Globally, CAR-T therapy has become a standard treatment for relapsed/refractory MCL, particularly in third-line treatment settings. For patients with poor prognostic factors, CAR-T therapy may be key to overcoming the limitations of traditional treatments and extending survival.

Conclusion

As CAR-T cell therapy continues to evolve, more patients with relapsed/refractory MCL will have the opportunity to benefit from it. The clinical application of Relma-cel not only brings deep and lasting remission to patients but also sets a new example for the development of CAR-T therapy worldwide. With early intervention and precise treatment strategies, CAR-T therapy has the potential to create a brighter future for MCL patients.
