Breaking Barriers: Equecabtagene Autoleucel Revives Hope for International RRMM Patients – Multiple Myeloma

Breaking Barriers: Equecabtagene Autoleucel Revives Hope for International RRMM Patients – Multiple Myeloma

Multiple Myeloma

Multiple Myeloma

Relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) presents a significant challenge worldwide, representing 13% of all blood cancers. Despite advances in treatment, many patients face poor outcomes and limited options. However, a groundbreaking CAR-T therapy, Equecabtagene Autoleucel, has recently demonstrated its life-changing potential in overcoming this medical impasse.

In February 2024, a 70-year-old patient from Kyrgyzstan, diagnosed with multiple myeloma 17 years ago, arrived at a Hospital of Chinese Xi’an seeking relief from severe pain and disease progression. The patient had undergone multiple treatments over the years, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but his condition continued to deteriorate with extensive bone destruction and kidney disease caused by the cancer.

Given the severity of his condition and the failure of previous treatments, he was selected for Equecabtagene Autoleucel therapy. After a series of preparatory treatments, the patient received CAR-T cell infusion in April 2024, and the results were remarkable. Within just one month, his myeloma cells were undetectable, and he achieved a complete response (CR) with no signs of minimal residual disease (MRD). The treatment was not only effective but also safe, with only mild side effects such as grade 1 cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which was easily managed.

This case exemplifies the transformative power of Equecabtagene Autoleucel, which has shown a 98.9% overall response rate (ORR) in clinical trials, with a CR rate of over 82%. It offers a beacon of hope for RRMM patients, particularly those who have exhausted conventional treatment options.

As one of China’s premier CAR-T therapies, Equecabtagene Autoleucel is breaking barriers, providing a new lease on life for patients globally. With its impressive safety profile and unparalleled efficacy, it is poised to play a pivotal role in extending survival and improving quality of life for those battling RRMM. This therapy is not only revolutionizing cancer treatment but also proving to be a lifeline for patients who previously faced limited options.

#leukemia #lymphoma #multiplemyeloma

#Hematologic malignancies are a group of malignant diseases originating from hematopoietic cells, often affecting the bone marrow, blood, and various organs and tissues throughout the body. Common types of hematologic malignancies include leukemia, myelodysplastic syndromes, lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and myeloproliferative neoplasms.

The causes of these diseases are complex, involving genetic mutations, immune abnormalities, radiation exposure, contact with harmful chemicals, infections, and hereditary factors. Additionally, poor lifestyle habits, high levels of stress, and environmental factors can also increase the risk of developing these conditions.

With an aging population and advancements in medical technology, the incidence of hematologic malignancies has been rising globally. In China, the incidence and mortality rates of leukemia and lymphoma are now among the top ranks of all malignancies.

However, hematologic malignancies are not incurable. In recent years, the treatment methods for these diseases have seen significant progress. From traditional combination chemotherapy and radiotherapy to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, monoclonal antibody therapy, antibody-drug conjugates, small molecule targeted therapies, and the latest immunotherapies, treatment options have become increasingly diverse and precise.

Combination chemotherapy remains a primary treatment for many hematologic malignancies, despite its significant side effects. The efficacy of these treatments cannot be ignored. Modern chemotherapy regimens are continually being refined, including the incorporation of new cytotoxic drugs and targeted therapies, as well as the use of monoclonal antibodies. Additionally, the appropriate use of antiemetics, hematopoietic growth factors, and anti-infective agents helps to mitigate adverse effects.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation continues to be one of the most effective treatments for certain hematologic malignancies. The development of this treatment in China has been rapid, with 170 registered transplant centers by 2020.

Monoclonal antibodies, often referred to as “biological missiles,” have a high degree of specificity and single biological activity. They have revolutionized the treatment of hematologic malignancies. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) utilize monoclonal antibodies to accurately identify tumor cell markers, guiding the delivery of chemotherapy drugs for targeted treatment.

Small molecule targeted therapies work by interfering with specific genes or proteins to inhibit tumor cell growth and proliferation. Gleevec, the first small molecule targeted therapy, increased the five-year survival rate for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients from 30% to 89%, marking a breakthrough in cancer treatment. Today, there are numerous small molecule targeted drugs available for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, including BCR-ABL inhibitors, BTK inhibitors, BCL-2 inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, and XPO1 inhibitors, with many more drugs currently in clinical trials expected to become available soon.

Immunotherapy includes immune checkpoint inhibitors (such as PD-1/L1), cancer vaccines, cellular immunotherapies (such as #CART), and nonspecific immunomodulatory treatments. #CARTtherapy, in particular, has gained widespread attention as an emerging curative treatment. This approach involves extracting a patient’s T cells, modifying them outside the body to specifically recognize and attack tumor cells, and then reinfusing the modified T cells into the patient. This therapy has been successfully applied to various hematologic malignancies, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia, lymphomas, and multiple myeloma. The first patient treated with CAR-T therapy has been disease-free for 11 years.

In recent years, China has made significant advances in the treatment of hematologic malignancies. The establishment of the “Chinese Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of High-Risk Multiple Myeloma” and the presentation by Professor Huang He at the 2024 #EHA conference on targeting CD7 universal CAR-T therapy for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) have shown remarkable efficacy and safety. Additionally, exciting new data from the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (#ASCO) annual meeting highlighted the efficacy of Relma-cel in treating relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (R/R LBCL), with a four-year overall survival rate (#OS) of 66.7%. Particularly noteworthy is the research on multiple myeloma, where the BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy has demonstrated deep and lasting responses, with a complete response (#CR) rate of 82.4% and a 12-month progression-free survival (#PFS) rate of 85.5%.

With the continuous development of new treatments and the emergence of new drugs, hematologic malignancies in China are no longer considered incurable diseases. Through standardized, individualized, and precise treatments, many patients with hematologic malignancies can achieve long-term disease-free survival, and even a cure, returning to normal work and life. As medicine continues to advance, every life will continue to shine brightly!

Light of Hope – The Starting Point for Multiple Myeloma Patients

### Light of Hope – The Starting Point for Multiple Myeloma Patients

Ms. Teresa sat in the comfortable seat of the apheresis room, watching the nurse gently insert the needle into her arm to draw the precious white blood cell samples. These white blood cells would become the core material for CAR-T therapy, engineered and then reintroduced into her body to become a powerful force against cancer.

In the operating room, machines hummed softly, precisely separating the T cells from Teresa’s body. These cells, which had faithfully performed their duty of protecting her body, would now be re-educated to become a precise strike team against cancer cells. Teresa closed her eyes and silently prayed that this apheresis would infuse her body with the strength to drive the disease out of her life.

The apheresis process lasted several hours, with medical staff carefully monitoring each step to ensure enough high-quality cells were collected. The extraction of these cells was not only a technical challenge but also a stringent test of the medical team’s professional capabilities.

After the apheresis was completed, Teresa felt somewhat relieved. She knew this was just the first step in a long treatment journey, but it was also an important starting point filled with hope. In the apheresis room, she felt the warmth and professionalism of the medical team, which filled her with confidence and hope for the future treatment.

Back in her ward, Teresa gently closed her eyes as she lay on the bed. She pondered how the coming days would unfold, hoping that this apheresis would bring her the strength to overcome the disease and regain her health.

Apheresis, as the first step of the treatment journey, marked a new chapter in Teresa’s brave fight against cancer and ignited a flame of hope for her future recovery.

RRMM Patients

RRMM Patients

In December 2019, a man in his 50s was diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM) at a hospital in Shenzhen, China. The patient had high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities (17p deletion) and underwent various treatments over more than three years, including proteasome inhibitors (PIs), immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs), and CD38 monoclonal antibodies. Despite these treatments, the patient experienced a second relapse. This relapse was characterized by a P53 gene mutation and liver extramedullary invasion, classifying it as an ultra-high-risk situation. Although the patient initially refused an autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT), he was eventually persuaded to collect sufficient stem cells. However, due to concerns about the side effects of high-dose chemotherapy, he opted for CAR-T therapy.

### Personalized Treatment: From ASCT to CAR-T Therapy

Under the care of Professor Chen’s team at the hospital, the patient was evaluated for CAR-T therapy. Despite the risks, he underwent the treatment and showed significant improvement. As of March 2024, he has maintained a complete response (CR) for seven months, with PET/CT scans indicating the disappearance of liver extramedullary disease.

#### Patient Background

🩸 Breakthrough in Multiple Myeloma Treatment! 🩺

🩸 Breakthrough in Multiple Myeloma Treatment! 🩺

🔬Targeting GPRC5D with CAR-T Cells shows immense potential in treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patients.
Multiple myeloma, a malignant disease characterized by clonal plasma cell proliferation in the bone marrow, has remained incurable despite substantial progress in treatment methods such as systemic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, CAR-T cell therapy targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) has demonstrated activity in treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Nonetheless, the escape of BCMA-low or BCMA-negative myeloma cells has led to treatment resistance and relapse, highlighting the need to explore new targets.

 

💪In February 2023, a groundbreaking study titled “GPRC5D CAR T cells (OriCAR-017) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (POLARIS): a first-in-human, single-center, single-arm, phase 1 trial” was published in The Lancet Haematology. The study aimed to evaluate the activity and safety of G-protein-coupled receptor class 5 member D (GPRC5D) CAR-T cells (OriCAR-017) in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

 

🌈Promising Treatment Response with OriCAR-017 Infusion
All ten patients (100%) demonstrated an overall response, with 6 patients (60%) achieving a complete response and 4 patients (40%) showing very good partial responses. The patients with complete responses met stringent complete response criteria, and all patients achieved minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity by day 28. Serum M-protein concentrations gradually decreased, and patients’ clinical responses improved over time. The median time to the best response was 3.1 months, while the median time to a complete response or better was 4.1 months.

☀️Among the 5 patients who relapsed after BCMA CAR-T cell therapy, 2 patients achieved a stringent complete response, and 3 patients showed very good partial responses. Four patients had extramedullary disease at enrollment, with the largest tumor volume measuring 70 cm³. PET-CT scans revealed complete resolution of extramedullary lesions in three patients, while the extramedullary disease in one patient continued to shrink. Furthermore, no severe adverse events or treatment-related deaths were reported.

🌱Favorable Survival Outcomes after OriCAR-017 Infusion
The median follow-up time for all patients was 238 days, with two patients progressing after achieving stringent complete remission. One patient experienced GPRC5D-positive relapse, with GPRC5D expression in malignant plasma cells increasing from 34.5% at baseline to 35.8% at relapse. The other patient experienced GPRC5D-negative relapse, with GPRC5D expression in malignant plasma cells decreasing from 86.8% at baseline to 6.9% at relapse. The remaining eight patients in ongoing remission were all negative for minimal residual disease, and no deaths occurred. The median progression-free survival time was not reached, but the estimated progression-free survival rate for all patients at nine months was 87.5%.

🧬Durable CAR-T Cell Persistence
CAR-T cell expansion was detected in all patients after infusion, with a median time to maximum CAR-T cell expansion (Cmax) of 10.0 days and a median Cmax of 7930 copies/μl. CAR-T cells exhibited favorable persistence in the body, with CAR-T cells still detectable in 90% of patients at one month, seven patients at three months, and four patients at six months.

🌟 The study results demonstrate that targeting GPRC5D with CAR-T cells in treating relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patients is safe and shows promising activity. The observed targeted and off-target toxicities associated with GPRC5D were manageable, indicating the potential of GPRC5D as an effective immunotherapeutic target for multiple myeloma. These findings provide a foundation for subsequent phase 2 studies to further validate the efficacy and safety of targeting GPRC5D CAR-T cells in multiple myeloma.🦾

We can help all international patients come to China to receive anticancer therapies such as CAR-T, TILs, and cancer vaccines.
We have access to medical resources from all cancer hospitals in China and can assist patients in receiving treatment from the best and top-tier oncologists in the CHINA.
