Article Abstract
Background: Although chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cells (CAR T) cell therapy has been widely reported in improving the outcomes of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), less research about the feasibility and safety of donor-derived CAR T after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) was reported.
Methods: This phase 1 clinical trial aims to evaluate safety and efficacy of donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR T cells (GC007g) in B-ALL patients who relapsed after allo-HSCT. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04516551.
Findings: Between 15 March 2021 and 19 May 2022, fifteen patients were screened, three patients were excluded due to withdraw of consent, donor's reason, and death, respectively. Patients received donor-derived CAR T cells infusions at 6 × 10/kg (n = 3) or 2 × 10/kg (n = 6) dose level. The median time from HSCT to relapse was 185 days (range, 81-2063). The median age of patients was 31 years (range 21-48). Seven patients (77.8%) had BCR-ABL fusion gene. CAR T cells expanded in vivo and the median time to reach C was 9 days (range, 7-11). One patient had hyperbilirubinemia after GC007g infusion which was defined as a dose-limiting toxicity. All patients experienced CRS and hematological adverse events. Three patients had acute graft-versus-host-disease (grade I, n = 1; grade II, n = 1; grade IV, n = 1) and all resolved after treatment. They received CAR T cells from matched sister, haploidentical matched father and sisiter, respectively. At 28 days after infusion, all patients achieved complete remission with/without incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi/CR) with undetectable MRD. At a median follow-up of 475 days (range 322-732), seven patients remained in CR/CRi while two had CD19-negative relapse. The overall response rates (ORR) were 100% (9/9), 88.9% (8/9), and 75% (6/8) at 3 month, 6 month, and 12 month, respectively. The 1-year progression-free and overall survival were 77.8% and 85.7%, respectively.
Interpretation: GC007g expanded and induced durable remission in patients with B-ALL relapsed after allo-HSCT, with manageable safety profiles.

B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) is a highly heterogeneous group of lymphopoietic malignancies that account for 85% to 90% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. In recent years, CD19 Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cell immunotherapy has significantly improved the cure rate of B-NHL patients, but there are still some patients who cannot achieve remission after treatment, or relapse after remission. Therefore, it is of great importance to overcome the drug resistance of CD19 CAR T cells after B-NHL treatment and reduce the recurrence rate of CD19 CAR T cells after B-NHL treatment.

Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR)-engineered T (CAR-T) cell therapy represents a highly promising modality within the domain of cancer treatment. CAR-T cell therapy has demonstrated notable efficacy in the treatment of hematological malignancies, solid tumors, and various infectious diseases. However, current CAR-T cell therapy is autologous, which presents challenges related to high costs, time-consuming manufacturing processes, and the necessity for careful patient selection.

Background: Lung cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), has high recurrence rates and remains a leading cause of cancer-related death, despite recent advances in its treatment. Emerging therapies, such as chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy, have shown promise but face significant challenges in targeting solid tumors. This study investigated the potential of combining receptor tyrosine kinase-like orphan receptor 1 (ROR1)-targeting CAR-T cells with ferroptosis inducers to promote ferroptosis of tumor cells and enhance anti-tumor efficacy.
