    Abstract Purpose of review: Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy is gaining clinical use in the management of B cell lymphomas. As the use of this unique treatment option increases, its associated toxicities will require recognition and treatment. In this review, we aim to discuss the cardiovascular toxicities of chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy and our approach to their clinical management.
    Recent findings: Cardiotoxicity may be due to direct or indirect effects of infused chimeric antigen receptor T cells. The cytokine release syndrome has been described extensively in the literature. Studies have also reported cardiovascular dysfunction including hypotension, left ventricular dysfunction, heart failure, and cardiogenic shock in the setting of cytokine release syndrome. While there are no standardized guidelines for the treatment of cytokine release syndrome or associated cardiotoxicity, we present our current clinical practices. Further research is indicated into the pathophysiology of therapy-associated cardiac dysfunction and effective management strategies to optimize patient outcomes.

    Abstract Purpose of review: T cell-based therapies (blinatumomab and CAR T cell therapy) have produced unprecedented responses in relapsed and refractory (r/r) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) but is accompanied with significant toxicities, of which one of the most common and serious is cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Here we will review the pathophysiology, prevention, and treatment of CRS.
    Recent findings: Efforts have been initiated to define and grade cytokine release syndrome (CRS), to identify patients at risk, to describe biomarkers that predict onset and severity, to understand the pathophysiology, and to prevent and treat severe cases to reduce T cell immunotherapy-related morbidity and mortality. Optimizing the timing of T cell-based therapies in ALL, identifying new biomarkers, and investigating novel anti-cytokine agents that have anti-CRS activity are likely to be fruitful avenues of study.

    Abstract MiR-126 and miR-155 are key microRNAs (miRNAs) that regulate, respectively, hematopoietic cell quiescence and proliferation. Herein we showed that in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the biogenesis of these two miRNAs is interconnected through a network of regulatory loops driven by the FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3-internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD). In fact, FLT3-ITD induces the expression of miR-155 through a noncanonical mechanism of miRNA biogenesis that implicates cytoplasmic Drosha ribonuclease III (DROSHA). In turn, miR-155 down-regulates SH2-containing inositol phosphatase 1 (SHIP1), thereby increasing phosphor-protein kinase B (AKT) that in turn serine-phosphorylates, stabilizes, and activates Sprouty related EVH1 domain containing 1 (SPRED1). Activated SPRED1 inhibits the RAN/XPO5 complex and blocks the nucleus-to-cytoplasm transport of pre-miR-126, which cannot then complete the last steps of biogenesis. The net result is aberrantly low levels of mature miR-126 that allow quiescent leukemia blasts to be recruited into the cell cycle and proliferate. Thus, miR-126 down-regulation in proliferating AML blasts is downstream of FLT3-ITD–dependent miR-155 expression that initiates a complex circuit of concatenated regulatory feedback (i.e., miR-126/SPRED1, miR-155/human dead-box protein 3 [DDX3X]) and feed-forward (i.e., miR-155/SHIP1/AKT/miR-126) regulatory loops that eventually converge into an output signal for leukemic growth.

    Abstract Purpose: Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (HSCT-TMA) is a serious complication with significant mortality and no approved therapy. HSCT-TMA results from endothelial injury, which activates the lectin pathway of complement. Narsoplimab (OMS721), an inhibitor of mannan-binding lectin-associated serine protease-2 (MASP-2), was evaluated for safety and efficacy in adults with HSCT-TMA.
    Methods: In this single-arm open-label pivotal trial (NCT02222545), patients received intravenous narsoplimab once weekly for 4-8 weeks. The primary end point (response rate) required clinical improvement in two categories: (1) laboratory TMA markers (both platelet count and lactate dehydrogenase) and (2) organ function or freedom from transfusion. Patients receiving at least one dose (full analysis set [FAS]; N = 28) were analyzed.
    Results: The response rate was 61% in the FAS population. Similar responses were observed across all patient subgroups defined by baseline features, HSCT characteristics, and HSCT complications. Improvement in organ function occurred in 74% of patients in the FAS population. One-hundred-day survival after HSCT-TMA diagnosis was 68% and 94% in FAS population and responders, respectively, whereas median overall survival was 274 days in the FAS population. Narsoplimab was well tolerated, and adverse events were typical of this population, with no apparent safety signal of concern.
    Conclusion: In this study, narsoplimab treatment was safe, significantly improved laboratory TMA markers, and resulted in clinical response and favorable overall survival.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a heterogeneous disease, for which treatment guidelines are still evolving. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a potentially curative therapeutic modality for ALL, and this review describes the recent studies and current practice patterns concerning the who, when, and how of allo-HCT in the management of ALL.
    Recent findings: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with ALL after first relapse and is also recommended for high-risk patients in first complete remission (CR1). Minimal residual disease evaluation and monitoring is developing as an important prognostic factor and could guide physicians in determining which patients, especially those with standard risk, might require transplant. Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy allows a much higher proportion of Philadelphia-chromosome-positive ALL patients to attain remission and proceed to transplant with improved results; posttransplant TKI maintenance therapy may also provide survival benefit. Reduced-intensity conditioning regimens are a reasonable alternative for patients who would otherwise be ineligible for transplant because of age or comorbidity.
    Summary: For patients with high-risk features, there is general agreement that allo-HCT in CR1 is a potentially curative option; however, there is no consensus on early transplant for standard-risk patients.

    Abstract Purpose: A phase I/II study evaluating the safety and activity of memory-enriched CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CD19-CAR) T cells in adults with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
    Patients and methods: In phase I, we tested sequentially two cell populations for CAR transduction: (i) central memory (Tcm) or (ii) naïve, stem, and central memory (Tn/mem) T cells. The study employed an activity constrained for toxicity design to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D), which was tested in phase II.
    Results: The Tcm cohort was closed early due to lack of activity. The 200 ×106 Tn/mem-derived CD19-CAR T-cell dose was found to be safe and active, and was declared the RP2D. At RP2D, 58 participants underwent leukapheresis and 46 received CD19-CAR T cells. Median age for treated participants was 38 years (range, 22-72). Twenty-nine (63%) participants had relapsed post-allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT), 18 (39%) had Philadelphia-like (Ph-like) genotype, and 16 (35%) had extramedullary disease (EMD) at lymphodepletion (LD). Three (7%) participants had grade 3 cytokine release syndrome (CRS), and none had grade ≥ 4 CRS. Eight (17%) participants had grade ≥ 3 neurotoxicity, including one fatal cerebral edema. Forty (87%) patients achieved complete remission (CR)/CR with incomplete hematologic recovery, 2 (4%) progressed, and 4 (9%) were unevaluable for response. Among 42 response-evaluable participants, 16/17 with Ph-like ALL and 13/15 with EMD at LD responded. Twenty-one (53%) responders underwent alloHCT consolidation, which was associated with improved relapse-free survival (adjusted HR = 0.16; 95% confidence interval, 0.05-0.48; P = 0.001).
    Conclusions: Tn/mem-derived CD19-CAR T cells were safe and active, including in Ph-like ALL and EMD. See related commentary by El Marabti and Abdel-Wahab, p. 694.

    Abstract Despite the substantial clinical activity of fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitors in relapsed or refractory (R/R) FLT3-ITD‒positive acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), durable remissions and prolonged survival in this population require allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Quizartinib, a once-daily oral, highly potent, and selective FLT3 inhibitor, significantly prolonged overall survival (OS) and improved clinical benefit compared with salvage chemotherapy (median OS, 6.2 months versus 4.7 months; hazard ratio [HR], .76; 95% confidence interval [CI], .58 to .98; P = .018; composite complete remission [CRc] rate, 48% versus 27%; median duration of CRc, 2.8 months versus 1.2 months; mortality rate, .8% versus 14% by day 30, 7% versus 24% by day 60) in patients with R/R FLT3-ITD AML in the phase 3 QuANTUM-R trial. In this post hoc analysis, we described the characteristics of and clinical outcomes in patients who underwent on-study HSCT in QuANTUM-R at the investigator's discretion and institutional practices. Of 367 randomized patients, 78 (32%) in the quizartinib arm and 14 (11%) in the salvage chemotherapy arm underwent on-study allo-HSCT without any intervening therapy for AML after quizartinib or study-specified salvage chemotherapy. Pooled data of patients from both treatment arms showed a longer median overall survival (OS) in transplant recipients versus those treated without allo-HSCT (12.2 months versus 4.4 months; HR, .315; 95% CI, .233 to .427). Pooled data also showed a longer median OS in patients with a last recorded response of CRc before allo-HSCT versus patients without a CRc (20.1 months versus 8.8 months; HR, .506; 95% CI, .296 to .864). By treatment arm, the median OS was 25.1 months with quizartinib and 20.1 months with salvage chemotherapy in patients with a last recorded response of CRc before allo-HSCT. Forty-eight patients in the quizartinib arm continued quizartinib treatment after allo-HSCT. In the 31 patients with a last recorded response of CRc before allo-HSCT who continued quizartinib after allo-HSCT, the median OS was 27.1 months. Continuation of quizartinib after allo-HSCT was tolerable, and no new safety signals were identified. These results suggest that post-transplantation survival following salvage chemotherapy and quizartinib treatment are similar. However, quizartinib response occurs more frequently than with salvage chemotherapy, potentially allowing more patients to undergo transplantation and achieve durable clinical benefit. In addition, post-transplant quizartinib was found to be tolerable and may be associated with prolonged survival in some patients, highlighting its potential value in the management of patients with FLT3-ITD R/R AML.

    Abstract Allelic variants of genes implicated in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) determine the pharmacokinetic variability of many medications and are increasingly recognized as important factors determining the success or failure of medical treatments. Both tacrolimus and sirolimus have narrow therapeutic ranges maintained by therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Using an ADME panel that covers >99% of the PharmaADME working group core list (188 single nucleotide polymorphism [SNP] and 12 copy number variant [CNV] assays in 36 pharmacogenetically relevant genes), we studied 177 patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) using tacrolimus/sirolimus-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. We tested for possible associations between ADME variants and tacrolimus/sirolimus drug levels, concentration/dose (C/D) ratio, and clinical endpoints, including acute GVHD. A total of 62 SNP and 6 CNV assays were evaluable after removing the variants, which were homozygous in (nearly) all samples. For sirolimus, rs2032582 (ABCB1) T-carriers versus non-T-carriers were associated with higher blood levels (P = .01), with similar results for C/D ratio. Generalized estimating equation analysis supported these findings. For tacrolimus, rs776746 CYP3A5*3/*3 and CYP3A5*3/*1 were associated with higher blood levels than CYP3A5*1/*1 (P = .002). By multivariable analysis, rs776746 CYP3A5*3/*3 and CYP3A5*3/*1 were independently associated with decreased acute GVHD compared with CYP3A5*1/*1, after adjustment for conditioning, donor type, race/ethnicity, and age. We demonstrated association of specific ADME genetic polymorphisms with blood levels of tacrolimus/sirolimus, and incidence of acute GVHD after HCT, in spite of TDM and dose adjustment. A larger ongoing study will determine whether these associations have clinical utility beyond TDM.
