Expert Perspective: Side Effects and Management of CAR-T Therapy for a Thai Patient
**Expert Perspective: Side Effects and Management of CAR-T Therapy for a Thai Patient**
At the Hematology Department of Shanghai Tongji Hospital, Dr. Li Ping, the chief physician for the elderly Thai patient Ms. P, provided a detailed overview of the patient’s multiple myeloma condition and treatment journey. After experiencing multiple treatments and relapses in Thailand, the patient ultimately chose and trusted CAR-T therapy in China. Dr. Li highlighted that the most common side effect is cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which manifests as fever, hypotension, and difficulty breathing. While most CRS cases are mild to moderate, severe CRS can be life-threatening. She also emphasized that through scientific management, the team’s extensive experience, and the low immunogenicity of the fully human CAR-T product FUCASO, the side effects of CAR-T therapy can be effectively controlled, offering the patient hope for a cure.
We will continue to follow up on this patient’s treatment progress and provide updates.

2024EHA | Professor Huang He: Targeting CD7 Universal CAR-T Therapy Shows Significant Efficacy and Good Safety in Treating R/R CD7+ T-ALL/LBL Patients
**2024EHA | Professor Huang He: Targeting CD7 Universal CAR-T Therapy Shows Significant Efficacy and Good Safety in Treating R/R CD7+ T-ALL/LBL Patients**
The 29th Annual Meeting of the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2024 concluded successfully on June 16, 2024, in Madrid, Spain. As a premier event in the international hematology field, it showcased the latest advancements in foundational and clinical practices.
At this year’s EHA meeting, several studies from Professor Huang He’s team at the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine were selected. One of these studies, titled “Phase I Study of Targeting CD7 Universal CAR-T Therapy for Relapsed/Refractory CD7+ T-ALL/LBL Patients,” was featured in a poster presentation.
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) are aggressive malignancies originating from precursor T cells, often affecting the bone marrow (BM), central nervous system (CNS), and mediastinum. Despite multiple lines of chemotherapy or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, some patients progress to a relapsed/refractory stage with poor prognosis, posing a significant clinical challenge. Current CAR-T cell therapies primarily target B-cell hematologic malignancies and multiple myeloma, such as CD19 CAR-T and BCMA CAR-T, while mature targets for T-cell hematologic malignancies are lacking. Preliminary research data indicate that CD7 could be a potential therapeutic target for T-cell hematologic malignancies. Based on this, the team developed a universal CAR-T product targeting CD7, named RD13-02, characterized by CRISPR/Cas9 technology to modify T-cell receptors (TCR) and CD7, creating an innovative “off-the-shelf” CAR-T cell therapy product aimed at truly achieving shelf-ready cell therapy.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RD13-02 in treating R/R T-ALL/LBL. A total of 12 eligible R/R T-ALL/LBL patients (7 ALL, 5 LBL) were enrolled in the study, all exhibiting CD7 antigen expression. Six patients had extramedullary disease; all had blast cells in the bone marrow, with a median proportion of 64% (range: 6% to 89%), indicating high-risk end-stage patients. The patients, aged 3 to 70 years, were enrolled in a “3+3” dose-escalation study. Based on the total dose of RD13-02, they were randomly divided into four dosage groups (DL-1: 0.5×10^8 CAR+T cells; DL1: 2×10^8 CAR+T cells; DL2: 4×10^8 CAR+T cells; DL3: 6×10^8 CAR+T cells). All patients received a standardized lymphodepletion regimen of fludarabine (30mg/m2/day) and cyclophosphamide (500mg/m2/day) for three consecutive days (Day -5 to Day -3) before CAR-T infusion. Preliminary disease assessment was conducted on Day 28. After determining the MTD and RP2D, dose expansion will be carried out.
The study results indicated that no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), or graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was observed at any dose level. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was manageable, mostly mild (G1, n=8; G2, n=2; G3, n=2). Due to the occurrence of Grade 3 CRS in one patient each in the DL2 and DL3 groups, the DL1 dose was set as RP2D, focusing on safety and efficacy. In the initial 28-day evaluation post-infusion, 9 out of 12 patients achieved CR/CRi. By the second month post-infusion, an additional 2 patients achieved CR/CRi, with an ORR of 92%. All patients showed expansion observed through qPCR, with the expansion occurring between Days 6 to 15 and peaking between Days 8 to 27, with a median duration of 33 days (15-79). The study preliminarily confirmed that the anti-CD7 universal CAR-T product RD13-02 is safe and effective for CD7+ R/R T-ALL/LBL. Long-term efficacy needs more patients and extended follow-up for validation. To date, this study has shown the best clinical results for universal CAR-T therapy for R/R T-ALL/LBL, attracting widespread attention from peers both domestically and internationally at this EHA meeting. Additionally, the Bone Marrow Transplantation Center at the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine is developing multiple targeted CAR-T cell therapy products for various hematologic malignancies, including B-cell, T-cell, and myeloid malignancies.
**Current Clinical Treatment of T-ALL/LBL**
The treatment of T-ALL/LBL remains a significant clinical challenge. Current strategies involve achieving remission with existing frontline therapies followed by sequential allogeneic or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, with most patients achieving long-term survival. However, some patients face refractory or relapsed disease with poor prognosis. For these patients, clinical studies of new drugs or treatment strategies, such as innovative drugs based on disease targets and pathways, are actively being conducted but have not achieved significant progress. CAR-T cell therapy, with its excellent efficacy and safety, is currently the most promising innovative therapy. It is hoped that with further research, CAR-T cell therapy can bring more survival benefits to T-ALL/LBL patients.
**Challenges and Strategies in CAR-T Cell Therapy**
Cellular immunotherapy has been a milestone in the medical field over the past decade, showing breakthrough efficacy in hematologic malignancies, but it still faces several challenges that need to be addressed.
First, the discovery of new targets. Current mature CAR-T cell therapy products mainly focus on B-cell hematologic malignancies, and new targets are urgently needed for T-cell, myeloid, and solid tumors.
Second, improving efficacy. Existing CAR-T cell therapy for B-cell hematologic malignancies has an efficacy rate of about 50%, and continuous technological improvements are expected to develop more effective cell therapy products for clinical application.
Third, existing CAR-T products are autologous CAR-T, which are costly and have long treatment cycles, necessitating the development of universal CAR-T to improve patient compliance.
The team’s novel cell therapy research, including the study selected for this EHA meeting, addresses these clinical challenges. Additionally, last year, the team published results on “function-enhanced” CAR-T in the journal *Nature*, using PD-1 site-specific integration and non-viral delivery methods to successfully prepare CAR-T cells, significantly enhancing their therapeutic effects.
Furthermore, managing CAR-T cell therapy complications, such as ICANS and CRS, requires in-depth exploration. Progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms of complications, leading to gene functionalization of CAR-T cells and developing “smart” CAR-T products to achieve “efficacy enhancement and toxicity reduction.” Additionally, exploring CAR-T combinations with small molecule targeted drugs and immunotherapeutic drugs could achieve better efficacy. The team recently published in the *New England Journal of Medicine* on the sequential “integrated” regimen of CD7 CAR-T cell therapy and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), showing excellent efficacy in relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies.
**Future Prospects of Cellular Therapy**
It is well known that hematology has always been at the forefront of medical development, including the application of the first small molecule targeted drugs and the first antibodies. The remarkable efficacy of cellular therapy in hematologic diseases has demonstrated its great potential in clinical practice. In the future, it is believed that with the development and commercialization of more novel cellular immunotherapy products, their efficacy will continue to improve, side effects will gradually decrease, and indications will expand.
In the field of hematologic diseases, in addition to traditional chemotherapy, small molecule targeted drugs, antibody drugs, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, cellular therapy has improved the clinical treatment landscape of hematologic diseases and holds a significant position. It is anticipated that in the future, the treatment of hematologic diseases may enter a chemotherapy-free era, bringing higher cure rates and better quality of life for patients.

China’s Breakthrough in CAR-T Therapy for CNS Lymphoma
### China’s Breakthrough in CAR-T Therapy for CNS Lymphoma
![Lymphoma](https://www.medtourcn.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/xzcbvxdbxcvb1-300x200.png)
Lymphoma
In a pioneering effort to improve outcomes for patients with refractory/relapsed central nervous system lymphoma (CNSL), a multi-center retrospective study led by Professor Jianqing Mi from Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, has showcased the impressive real-world effectiveness of Relmacabtagene Autoleucel (Relma-cel). This study, encompassing data from 12 centers across China, represents the largest sample size for a real-world study on commercial CAR-T therapy in treating CNSL, and its results have been recently published in the *Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer*.
### Study Overview and Patient Demographics
The study included 22 patients aged 18 and above, all diagnosed with CD19+ refractory or relapsed CNSL. These patients had previously undergone various systemic treatments, including CD20 monoclonal antibody immunochemotherapy and high-dose methotrexate-based therapies. Of the participants, 12 had primary CNSL and 10 had secondary CNSL. The median age was 56, with 45.5% being over 60 years old. The study focused on a high-risk group, with many having a Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) score of ≤60, multiple prior treatment lines, and/or high-risk genetic profiles such as double-hit lymphoma (DHL).
### Treatment and Response
Patients received Relma-cel with a median interval of 32 days between apheresis and infusion. Thirteen patients received a single CAR-T cell infusion, while nine underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in combination with CAR-T infusion. Notably, 20 patients received bridging therapy to control disease before CAR-T infusion. The overall response rate (ORR) was 90.9%, with a complete response (CR) rate of 68.2%. Impressively, all patients achieved CNS response, with 72.7% achieving CNS CR. The median time to response was one month.
### Follow-Up and Survival Outcomes
The median follow-up period was 316 days. Among the 16 patients who achieved CNS response, 81.3% remained alive and in remission, with half maintaining CNS CR for over a year. The study reported a one-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate of 64.4%, duration of response (DOR) rate of 71.5%, and overall survival (OS) rate of 79.2%. Key predictors of better outcomes included achieving CR before infusion and having non-progressive disease at the time of infusion.
### Safety and Tolerability
The safety profile of Relma-cel was acceptable. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) occurred in 72.7% of patients, primarily grade 1 or 2, with only one case of grade 3. Immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) was reported in 36.4% of patients, mostly grade 1 or 2. There were no CAR-T therapy-related deaths, although five patients (22.7%) died, with three deaths due to disease progression and two from non-relapse causes (COVID-19).
### CAR-T Cell Dynamics and Combined Therapy
The study also explored the pharmacokinetics of CAR-T cells. Relma-cel showed significant expansion in the peripheral blood within the first 28 days post-infusion, with CAR-T cells detected in the cerebrospinal fluid of all evaluable patients. Interestingly, patients receiving additional immunotherapies like BTK inhibitors or PD-1 inhibitors exhibited CAR-T cell re-expansion, suggesting potential synergistic effects.
### Conclusion and Future Directions
This landmark study underscores the clinical efficacy and manageable safety profile of Relma-cel for treating CNSL in a real-world setting. It highlights the potential benefits of combining CAR-T therapy with other immunotherapies, offering a promising strategy for enhancing CAR-T cell persistence and effectiveness. These findings pave the way for future research, suggesting the need for larger, randomized studies to further validate these results and explore the role of CAR-T therapy as a consolidation treatment for high-risk CNSL patients. As China continues to advance in medical research and technology, studies like this are crucial in providing valuable insights and improving global healthcare standards.

One Year After Approval: How Effective is China’s First BCMA-Targeted CAR-T Therapy in Treating Multiple Myeloma?
### One Year After Approval: How Effective is China’s First BCMA-Targeted CAR-T Therapy in Treating Multiple Myeloma?
![Multiple Myeloma](https://www.medtourcn.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/fhcvnhjtdgxz1.png)
Multiple Myeloma
“In the past 20 years, the treatment of multiple myeloma has advanced rapidly, thanks in large part to the swift progress in drug development. Over the past year, China’s first independently developed and the world’s first fully human BCMA-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy was approved. In our real-world clinical applications, we have treated over 20 patients with an overall effectiveness rate of nearly 100%.”
On June 30, 2024, exactly one year after the approval of China’s first BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy (Iquilonsen Injection), and also the world’s first fully human BCMA-targeted CAR-T therapy, how effective has the treatment been for patients? Professor Qiu Lugui, Director of the Lymphoma Treatment Center at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences Hematology Hospital, was interviewed by the People’s Daily Health Client.
“Multiple myeloma has a slow onset and early stages often show no obvious symptoms, making it easy to misdiagnose. To date, once diagnosed, the vast majority of patients experience one or more relapses, entering a refractory state, which is an incurable disease,” Professor Qiu Lugui told the People’s Daily Health Client.
Professor Qiu explained that current drugs for treating multiple myeloma fall into three categories: immunomodulators, proteasome inhibitors, and CD38 monoclonal antibodies. The indications for these drugs have gradually moved from refractory cases to frontline treatments, transforming multiple myeloma from a deadly disease with a median survival of around three years to a relatively controllable malignant hematological tumor with a median survival of 10 years or more after systematic multi-drug therapy.
CAR-T cell therapy is a cutting-edge technology for treating malignant hematological tumors. China’s independently developed fully human BCMA-targeted CAR-T drug (Iquilonsen Injection) is designed for multiple myeloma patients who have relapsed or whose disease remains uncontrolled despite traditional treatments including proteasome inhibitors and immunomodulators.
One particularly memorable case for Professor Qiu was a 70-year-old patient. “At that time, the patient was extremely weak and had already undergone all available treatments, including two types of immunomodulators, two types of proteasome inhibitors, CD38 monoclonal antibodies, and intensive chemotherapy, with no other effective options left,” recalled Professor Qiu. “However, the patient had a strong desire to live. Seeing his eager eyes, we couldn’t remain indifferent.”
“After confirming with the patient, we decided to proceed with the fully human BCMA-targeted CAR-T Iquilonsen therapy. One month after the treatment, the first evaluation showed complete remission. To date, the patient remains in complete remission,” said Professor Qiu.
“In real-world applications, we have treated over 20 patients with an overall effectiveness rate approaching 100%. However, due to the high cost of the drug and the fact that it is not covered by medical insurance, making the drug accessible remains a challenge,” Professor Qiu told the People’s Daily Health Client. “Currently, there are two methods to address this issue: one is to meet the needs of economically disadvantaged patients through commercial insurance; the other is to meet the needs of patients who meet the criteria for inclusion in CAR-T clinical research.”
“Additionally, in the year since the approval of China’s first CAR-T therapy for treating multiple myeloma, not only domestic patients but also patients from Europe, Asia-Pacific, Africa, and other regions have come to China for CAR-T treatment. Overall treatment driven by dynamic prognostic stratification will be the future path to cure for multiple myeloma patients both in China and globally,” said Professor Qiu.

Unveiling Hope: Chinese CAR-T Cell Therapy Illuminating New Paths in Liver Cancer Treatment!
2020, over 19.3 million people were diagnosed with cancer worldwide, leading to almost 10 million fatalities. In China alone, the number of new cancer patients reached a staggering 4.57 million, accounting for 23.7% globally. Liver cancer, among the most prevalent malignant tumors in China, witnessed 410,000 new cases and 380,000 deaths, making up 45.3% and 47.1% of the global total, respectively [1]. However, since the 21st century began, significant strides have been made in liver cancer treatments, particularly in medication and localized therapies. Surgical procedures are no longer the sole option for long-term survival among liver cancer patients.
Immunotherapy has emerged as one of the most promising techniques for treating liver cancer, especially with advancements in tumor molecular biology. In 2013, “Science” magazine categorized immunotherapy as the fourth major cancer treatment, following surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, with cell therapy becoming a focal point of basic and clinical research in recent years.
In May 2020, Professor Zhai Bo’s team from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine’s Renji Hospital, in collaboration with Shanghai Sci-Tech Biotechnology’s team led by Li Zonghai, published groundbreaking preliminary clinical research data on CAR-T cell therapy targeting the GPC3 gene for hepatocellular carcinoma in the “Clinical Cancer Research” journal. This breakthrough study brought unprecedented hope for CAR-T cell therapy in liver cancer treatment.
Even more inspiring, their publication in the “Cancer Communications” journal showcased follow-up results of two late-stage liver cancer patients who achieved long-term tumor-free survival after receiving CAR-T cell combined with local therapy [2]. These findings shed new light on the treatment prospects for liver cancer patients.
However, despite the potential therapeutic effects of liver cancer CAR-T cell therapy, it faces challenges and obstacles. Liver cancer’s heterogeneity, tumor microenvironment, and the safety of cell therapy remain crucial issues to address.
Presently, revolutionary changes are underway in the treatment models and concepts for liver cancer. However, integrating CAR-T cell therapy into actual liver cancer treatment requires further scientific exploration and clinical research. Researchers emphasize that only through comprehensive utilization of CAR-T cells in conjunction with other treatment modalities can its therapeutic potential be fully realized.
Professor Zhai Bo’s team is currently conducting various fundamental and clinical studies aimed at exploring additional possibilities for CAR-T cell therapy in solid tumors. These studies include phase I clinical research on EpCAM CAR-T cell combined with ablative therapy for gastrointestinal tumors, phase II clinical research on Claudin18.2 CAR-T cell therapy for gastrointestinal tumors, studies on the mechanism and prevention of OTOT toxicity, among others. These endeavors will provide more experimental data and support for the application of CAR-T cells in the treatment of solid tumors.
In conclusion, liver cancer CAR-T cell therapy signifies a significant breakthrough in the field of liver cancer treatment, offering new hope for patients. Despite the challenges to overcome, the outlook for this therapy is promising and holds the potential to bring a blessing to more patients in the future.
