    Abstract In the context of relapsed and refractory childhood pre-B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL), CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells often induce durable remissions, which requires the persistence of CAR-T cells. In this study, we systematically analyzed CD19 CAR-T cells of 10 children with R/R B-ALL enrolled in the CARPALL trial via high-throughput single-cell gene expression and T cell receptor sequencing of infusion products and serial blood and bone marrow samples up to 5 years after infusion. We show that long-lived CAR-T cells developed a CD4/CD8 double-negative phenotype with an exhausted-like memory state and distinct transcriptional signature. This persistence signature was dominant among circulating CAR-T cells in all children with a long-lived treatment response for which sequencing data were sufficient (4/4, 100%). The signature was also present across T cell subsets and clonotypes, indicating that persisting CAR-T cells converge transcriptionally. This persistence signature was also detected in two adult patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia with decade-long remissions who received a different CD19 CAR-T cell product. Examination of single T cell transcriptomes from a wide range of healthy and diseased tissues across children and adults indicated that the persistence signature may be specific to long-lived CAR-T cells. These findings raise the possibility that a universal transcriptional signature of clinically effective, persistent CD19 CAR-T cells exists.

    Abstract Background aims: Delayed immune reconstitution is a major challenge after matched unrelated donor (MUD) stem cell transplant (SCT). In this randomized phase 2 multi-center trial, Adoptive Immunotherapy with CD25/71 allodepleted donor T cells to improve immunity after unrelated donor stem cell transplant (NCT01827579), the authors tested whether allodepleted donor T cells (ADTs) can safely be used to improve immune reconstitution after alemtuzumab-based MUD SCT for hematological malignancies.
    Methods: Patients received standard of care or up to three escalating doses of ADTs generated through CD25+/CD71+ immunomagnetic depletion. The primary endpoint of the study was circulating CD3+ T-cell count at 4 months post-SCT. Twenty-one patients were treated, 13 in the ADT arm and eight in the control arm.
    Results: The authors observed a trend toward improved CD3+ T-cell count at 4 months in the ADT arm versus the control arm (230/µL versus 145/µL, P = 0.18), and three ADT patients achieved normal CD3+ T-cell count at 4 months (>700/µL). The rates of significant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were comparable in both cohorts, with grade ≥2 acute GVHD in seven of 13 and four of eight patients and chronic GVHD in three of 13 and three of eight patients in the ADT and control arms, respectively.
    Conclusions: These data suggest that adoptive transfer of ADTs is safe, but that in the MUD setting the benefit in terms of T-cell reconstitution is limited. This approach may be of more use in the context of more rigorous T-cell depletion.

    Abstract Previous studies have established that adoptive immunotherapy with donor-derived virus-specific T cells can prevent/treat viral complications post-stem cell transplant and regulatory T cells show promise as inhibitors of graft-versus-host disease. On the basis of flow cytometric analysis of upregulation of activation markers after stimulation with viral peptide pools, we have developed a rapid and clinically applicable protocol for the simultaneous selection of virus-specific T cells (after stimulation with peptide pools for the immunodominant antigens of cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, and adenovirus) and regulatory T cells using CD25 immunomagnetic selection. Using tetramer staining, we detected enrichment of CD8 T cells recognizing peptide epitopes from cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus antigens after CD25 selection in 6 of 7 donors. Enzyme-linked immunospot assays demonstrated the simultaneous presence of bivirus-specific or trivirus-specific cells in all evaluated donors, with a median 29-fold (6 to 168), 40-fold (1 to 247), and 16-fold (1 to 219) enrichment of cells secreting interferon-γ in response to cytomegalovirus pp65, adenovirus hexon, and Epstein-Barr virus lymphoblastoid cells compared with unmanipulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells from the same donors. Furthermore, the CD25-enriched cells lost alloreactivity in H-thymidine proliferation assays and showed highly effective (median, 98%) suppression of alloreactivity in all evaluated donors. In summary, we have developed a rapid, simple Good Manufacturing Practice compliant methodology for the simultaneous selection of T cells with multiple viral specificities and regulatory T cells. Adoptive transfer of T cells generated using this strategy may enable restoration of cellular immunity to viruses after allogeneic stem cell transplant with a low risk of graft-versus-host disease. Owing to the speed and simplicity of this methodology, this approach may significantly broaden the applicability of adoptive immunotherapy.

    Abstract Background aims: Immunotherapy with allodepleted donor T cells improves immunity after T cell-depleted hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We developed a methodology for selective depletion of alloreactive T cells after activation with host antigen-presenting cells by targeting T cells up-regulating CD25 and CD71. Combined depletion of these cells yields a pool of allodepleted donor T cells with antiviral properties with minimal capacity to cause graft-versus-host disease.
    Methods: Mature dendritic cells were irradiated and used to stimulate donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells for 4 days. The co-culture was stained with anti-CD71-biotin followed by CliniMACS CD25 and Anti-Biotin Reagents (Miltenyi Biotec GmbH; Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) before depletion on the CliniMACS Plus (Miltenyi Biotec GmbH). Residual alloreactivity was tested by flow cytometry, a secondary mixed lymphocyte reaction and limiting dilution analysis, and specific anti-viral immunity with pentamer staining. The large-scale protocol was tested under current good manufacturing practice conditions in five donor-recipient pairs of human leukocyte antigen-matched volunteer donors.
    Results: We developed a closed-system methodology using cell differentiation bags for cell culture and the COBE2991 Cell Processor (CaridianBCT, Lakewood, CO, USA). We also validated an anti-CD71-biotin generated for ex vivo clinical use. In five large-scale runs, the depleted fraction demonstrated excellent viability (99.9%), minimal residual expression of CD3/CD25 and CD3/CD71 (<0.2%) and passed tests for Mycoplasma, endotoxin, bacterial and fungal sterility. In secondary mixed lymphocyte reaction assays, the median response to host after allodepletion was 0%, whereas responses to third-party peripheral blood mononuclear cells were preserved (median, 105%; range 37%-350%). Limiting dilution analysis assays also demonstrated a reduction in response to host (median, -1.11 log) with preservation of third-party responses, and testing with human leukocyte antigen-restricted pentamers showed that populations of Epstein-Barr virus-specific and cytomegalovirus-specific CD8(+) T cells were retained after depletion.
    Conclusions: We optimized a protocol for the combined immunomagnetic depletion of alloreactive CD25/CD71 T cells under current good manufacturing practice conditions and tested the efficacy in five donor-recipient pairs.
