multiple myeloma

🌙China has made significant breakthroughs in the treatment of multiple myeloma with BCMA CAR-T therapy, attracting global attention. Recently, two fully human BCMA CAR-T therapies, Equecabtagene Autoleucel and Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel, have been approved for the treatment of relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.⭐️

🌛 In terms of long-term efficacy, for patients with a CAR-T cell persistence of over one year, the percentage is 53.3% for Equecabtagene Autoleucel and 26.5% for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel at six months’ persistence.⭐️

🌜The duration of CAR-T cell persistence has an impact on the survival outcome of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Long-term follow-up data from the Lengend-2 study showed a significant improvement in the cumulative overall survival (OS) rate for RRMM patients with a CAR-T cell persistence of over 280 days compared to patients with a persistence of less than 280 days. Therefore, 280 days of persistence is a critical threshold for improving clinical outcomes.⭐️

✨The median persistence for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel is 77 days, while for Equecabtagene Autoleucel, it is 419 days, far exceeding the critical threshold. It is expected to improve the OS of MM patients.⭐️

🌤From a clinical perspective, both therapies demonstrate a trend of improving long-term efficacy over time.

The complete response (CR) rate at six months of follow-up is 54.8% for Equecabtagene Autoleucel and 35.0% for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel.⭐️

🌝At a median follow-up of around nine months, the registered clinical data from China shows a CR rate of ≥74.2% for Equecabtagene Autoleucel and 45.1% for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel.⭐️

🌞During the 2023 IMS conference, Equecabtagene Autoleucel presented the latest long-term follow-up data, revealing a further increase in the CR rate to 82.4% at a median follow-up of 18.07 months.⭐️

☀️The efficacy data following a median follow-up of nine months for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel in the registered clinical trial LUMMICAR-1 Phase 2 study has not been publicly disclosed.

China’s breakthroughs in CAR-T cell therapy are remarkable. It not only provides new treatment options for multiple myeloma patients but also demonstrates China’s strength in medical research and innovation. It brings hope and possibilities for improving patients’ survival and quality of life.⭐️

China  CAR-T therapy

    In recent years, CAR-T cell therapy has achieved tremendous success in treating hematologic malignancies. Over the past 11 years, China has seen a surge in clinical trials evaluating the safety and efficacy of CAR-T therapy. China has now surpassed the United States as a major force in CAR-T clinical research.

In the field of multiple myeloma (MM),

    China has gained regulatory approval from the NMPA for two fully human BCMA CAR-T therapies for the treatment of relapsed/refractory MM (R/R MM). These therapies are Equecabtagene Autoleucel and Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel.

BCMA

    While both therapies target the same BCMA and share a common co-stimulatory domain, there are some fundamental differences between them. Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel includes patients with stable disease after previous treatment, whereas Equecabtagene Autoleucel focuses on patients with relapsed or progressive MM.

Looking at the short-term efficacy

    The median time to peak CAR-T cells in peripheral blood is 12 days for Equecabtagene Autoleucel and 14 days for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel. This indicates that the former can rapidly exert its effect, potentially laying the foundation for achieving clinical remission faster and better.

Clinical trial results seem to support this notion, with Equecabtagene Autoleucel showing a median time to response (TTR) of 15 days, compared to 29 days for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel. At the 3-month follow-up, the complete remission rates were 40.3% for Equecabtagene Autoleucel in the registered clinical trial FUMANBA-1 1b/2 phase, surpassing the rate of 28.3% observed in the registered clinical trial LUMMICAR-1 phase 2 for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel.

It’s worth noting that the infusion dose for Equecabtagene Autoleucel is 1×106 cells/kg, while the total infusion dose for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel is 150×106 cells, which translates to double the dose of Equecabtagene Autoleucel for patients with a weight of 70kg-75kg. Additionally, the reinfusion dose for Zevorcabtagene Autoleucel is not fixed and needs to be increased to 1.8×108 cells for patients weighing ≥80kg.

With the increasing availability of these groundbreaking BCMA CAR-T therapies, the landscape of multiple myeloma treatment continues to expand, offering more possibilities and choices.
