Abstract
Introduction: Despite therapeutic advances, multiple myeloma remains incurable. BCMA targeting immunotherapies, such as bispecific T-cell engagers (TCE) and autologous CAR-T provide high response rates, but relapses are common. Autologous CAR-T are logistically challenging due to the need for apheresis, prolonged manufacturing and occasional manufacturing failures. Importantly, pts who have progressed after a prior BCMA targeting immunotherapy are an emerging area of high unmet need. Emerging data indicate that autologous CAR-T have lower clinical activity in pts ho have progressed on TCE.
Methods: P-BCMA-ALLO1 is an allogeneic CAR-T therapy manufactured from healthy donor T-cells available “off-the-shelf” and being evaluated in a phase 1 clinical trial (P-BCMA-ALLO1-001) in RRMM pts. This primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of P-BCMA-ALLO1, and the key secondary objective is to investigate the anti-myeloma activity. The pts must have progressed on a prior proteasome inhibitor, immunomodulatory drug and anti-CD38 monoclonal antibody. The study allows enrollment of pts who have received prior BCMA targeting therapy. The study is exploring escalating P-BCMA-ALLO1 doses and several different lymphodepletion chemotherapy (LD) regimens. Here we report the safety and early efficacy results for the 5 pts who were treated with P-BCMA-ALLO1 after having progressed on BCMA targeting CAR-T, TCE or both. These pts were treated in arms P1 (LD: cyclophosphamide (cy) 500 mg/m2 + fludarabine (flu) 30 mg/m2 X 3 days) or arm P2 (LD: cy 1000 mg/m2 + flu 30 mg/m2 X 3 days) at a P-BCMA-ALLO1 dose of &gt; 2 X 106 to &lt;6 X 106 cells/kg.
Results: The median pt age was 62 years and median prior lines of therapy was 10. Three pts were treated in arm P2 and 2 in arm P1. Two pts had received prior teclistamab, 2 had received prior CAR-T and 1 had received prior teclistamab and CAR-T. P-BCMA-ALLO1 was well tolerated with no dose limiting toxicities or graft vs. host disease. Three of the five pts developed cytokine release syndrome (all grade (G) 2) and one developed G2 immune effector cell neurotoxicity syndrome. Three of the five pts (60%) achieved clinical responses with all three achieving the best response of very good partial response. The two non-responders had previously received and failed to achieve clinical response with teclistamab. One pt who had previously received both teclistamab and CAR-T achieved VGPR.
Conclusion: In conclusion, P-BCMA-ALLO1 is an allogeneic CAR-T that is available “on-demand” with activity in RRMM pts who have progressed following prior BCMA targeted CAR-T and TCE. We believe this is the first such report of an allogeneic CAR-T showing clinical activity in such a pt population with high unmet need. Enrollment is continuing and updated data will be presented at the meeting.
