Once again, a Chinese medical team is at the forefront of innovation, making significant strides in the field of CAR-T cell therapy. A recent study published in *JAMA Oncology* (B-Cell Maturation Antigen/CD19 Dual-Targeting Immunotherapy in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma) revealed remarkable results for the dual-target BCMA/CD19 CAR-T therapy in high-risk newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients. In this study, all 19 participants achieved stringent complete remission (sCR) and were found to be minimal residual disease (MRD) negative, resulting in an astounding 100% remission rate.
**CAR-T Therapy: A Breakthrough in Hematologic Cancer Treatment**
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a challenging hematologic cancer, particularly for patients with high-risk features, where traditional treatments often show limited efficacy. CAR-T cell therapy is an innovative immunotherapy that reprograms a patient’s own T cells to recognize and attack cancer cells. In recent years, this therapy has shown significant success in treating leukemia, lymphoma, and relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM). The latest study further demonstrates that dual-target CAR-T therapy, focusing on BCMA and CD19, can significantly improve the prognosis for high-risk MM patients.
**The Impressive Results of China’s Dual-Target CAR-T Therapy**
The CAR-T therapy used in this study, GC012F, targets both B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) and CD19 surface antigens, showing powerful anti-tumor effects. Every patient in the study not only achieved complete remission after treatment but also maintained a long-term MRD-negative status, meaning that traces of cancer cells were nearly undetectable post-therapy.
More importantly, the study highlighted the swift effectiveness of the Chinese GC012F therapy—patients reached their first complete remission in a median time of just 84 days, with MRD-negative status achieved in as little as 28 days. This rapid anti-tumor response provides a crucial treatment window for patients, significantly improving their prognosis.
**Safety and Future Prospects**
In addition to its impressive efficacy, GC012F demonstrated favorable safety. Only 27% of patients experienced mild to moderate cytokine release syndrome (CRS), and no cases of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) were observed. This is in stark contrast to previous studies in relapsed/refractory patients, where CRS rates were higher, highlighting the safety advantage of this therapy in newly diagnosed patients.
Though the study sample size was small, these findings bring new hope for high-risk multiple myeloma patients. As larger clinical trials are conducted and combination therapies are explored, this therapy has the potential to offer better survival outcomes for more patients.
**Conclusion**
China’s CAR-T cell therapy research continues to lead the way in hematologic cancer treatment. The success of the BCMA/CD19 dual-target CAR-T therapy not only demonstrates its strong efficacy in high-risk multiple myeloma but also provides a new direction for treating hematologic cancers globally. As research deepens, we anticipate that this groundbreaking therapy will bring new life-saving opportunities to more patients.
This breakthrough in Chinese CAR-T therapy represents not only scientific progress but also underscores China’s pivotal role in the global fight against cancer.

Multiple Myeloma
#MultipleMyeloma #CARTtherapy #BloodCancer #CompleteRemission #CART
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a malignant blood disorder characterized by abnormal proliferation of plasma cells, which causes damage to vital organs. Patients with high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities like 17p deletion, t(4;14) translocation, and t(14;16) translocation face an even worse prognosis. While new drugs like proteasome inhibitors and autologous stem cell transplantation have improved MM treatment outcomes, relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) continues to be a challenge due to its aggressive nature and tendency to relapse. Despite the use of traditional therapies, many patients either fail to respond or cannot tolerate further treatment due to underlying health issues.
CAR-T cell therapy, a novel immunotherapy that re-engineers the patient’s own T cells to attack cancer cells, has shown remarkable results in RRMM patients. It offers an alternative for patients who have poor tolerance to conventional treatments, presenting a safer and more effective option. In particular, Equecabtagene Autoleucel, a CAR-T therapy targeting the BCMA antigen on myeloma cells, has demonstrated success in treating patients unresponsive to frontline therapies.
### Case Study: High-Risk MM Patient Achieves Complete Remission
A 45-year-old male patient diagnosed with high-risk multiple myeloma in June 2023 sought further treatment at our hospital after failing to respond to chemotherapy. He had a history of coronary artery disease, diabetes, hypertension, and kidney artery stenosis, making traditional therapies less effective and risky.
Upon evaluation, the patient’s tests indicated κ-type M protein and abnormal free light chains (FLC-κ of 2410.5mg/L). Imaging scans revealed extensive bone damage caused by multiple myeloma. Genetic testing showed high-risk markers including 17p deletion and 1q21 amplification, further complicating his prognosis.
Given his high-risk status and poor response to standard treatments, the medical team decided to proceed with CAR-T cell therapy using Equecabtagene Autoleucel. After a smooth cell collection and lymphodepletion process, the patient received CAR-T infusion on November 15, 2023.
### Treatment Outcome and Safety
Eight days after infusion, the patient developed a mild fever, indicating cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which was effectively managed with symptomatic treatment. Despite mild kidney dysfunction and temporary blood cell reductions, no severe side effects or neurotoxicities occurred. By day 42, the patient developed a lung infection, which was treated with antibiotics, leading to a full recovery.
At the one-month follow-up, flow cytometry showed no minimal residual disease (MRD), confirming the patient had achieved complete remission (CR) with MRD negativity. This outcome was particularly significant considering the patient’s failure to respond to previous treatments.
### A Promising Future for High-Risk MM Patients
This case highlights the potential of CAR-T cell therapy, particularly Equecabtagene Autoleucel, in achieving deep remission for high-risk multiple myeloma patients who fail to respond to conventional therapies. With ongoing advancements in biomedical technology and immunotherapy, CAR-T treatments offer hope for RRMM patients, providing longer disease-free survival and improved quality of life.

Shanghai Hospital Achieves Complete Remission and Discharge of the 100th Patient with Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoma Treated with CAR-T Therapy
Shanghai Hospital Achieves Complete Remission and Discharge of the 100th Patient with Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoma Treated with CAR-T Therapy
Lymphoma
Ruijin Hospital,
affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, announced that with continuous exploration in clinical practice, experts have made progress in CAR-T cell therapy for lymphoma, benefiting an increasing number of patients. This advancement is of significant importance for further promoting and expanding the application of CAR-T therapy, allowing more patients to benefit from it.
Lymphoma
is a malignant tumor originating from the lymphatic hematopoietic system and encompasses a family of nearly a hundred different subtypes. Relapse and drug resistance pose major challenges for patients. CAR-T products have the potential to improve treatment outcomes and facilitate the broader application of CAR-T therapy among a wider range of patients in China.
CAR-T therapy
involves genetically modifying T cells to equip them with the ability to recognize tumors, enabling them to kill cancer cells in the body. If natural T cells can be likened to “ordinary soldiers,” then CAR-T cells can be considered as “special forces.” For cancer patients, the 5-year survival rate is an important milestone and a signal of cancer being cured. Achieving a 5-year survival implies that some cancer patients treated with CAR-T therapy can obtain long-term survival without further anticancer drug treatment, truly achieving the possibility of “cancer being cured.” Aunt Qin, the first patient enrolled in China’s CAR-T registered clinical trial in 2018, has achieved sustained complete remission for over 5 years and is about to enter the 6th year.
100th patient
At Ruijin Hospital, the 100th patient with relapsed/refractory lymphoma treated with CAR-T therapy has achieved complete remission and been discharged. The patient, Ms. Xu (alias), is a 41-year-old woman who now has a healthy complexion. She was initially diagnosed with follicular lymphoma and underwent chemotherapy and targeted therapy. However, the disease relapsed three months later, transforming into high-grade B-cell lymphoma. High-grade B-cell lymphoma is highly malignant with a poor prognosis. Professor Zhao Weili from the Hematology Department at Ruijin Hospital conducted a detailed analysis of Ms. Xu’s condition and developed a treatment plan for her. On November 22, 2023, after receiving CAR-T cell infusion, Ms. Xu showed complete remission of the tumor during the follow-up examinations at one month and three months.
