CD7 CAR T Cells for the Therapy of Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Abstract: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has the risk of toxicity to normal myeloid cells. CD7 is expressed by the leukemic blasts and malignant progenitor cells of approximately 30% of AML patients but is absent on normal myeloid and erythroid cells. Since CD7 expression by malignant blasts is also linked with chemoresistance and poor outcomes, targeting this antigen may be beneficial for this subset of AML patients. Here, we show that expression of a CD… Show more

“…Latest multi-center BCMA-CAR trials results indicate a relatively safe profile (although cytokine release syndrome -CRS and transient neurotoxicity were observed) with an overall response rate over 90% [145,146]. Other antigens currently being targeted to treat hematological malignancies include CD20 for NHL, CD138 for MM [144], CD33 [147], CD123 for AML [148,149] and CD7 for certain leukemias and lymphomas [150]. Lately, using a very elegant approach to treat T-cell malignancies, Pule and colleagues isolated an antibody specific for the TCRβ1 constant region.…”

“…It is also expressed in approximately 30% of patients with AML and has been correlated with low expression of wild type CEBPA and a worse prognosis [47][48][49][50][51][52][53], making it an attractive immunotherapeutic target. However, because it is also expressed on most mature T cells, additional engineering and processing techniques are necessary to avoid fratricide when using T cell-based therapies to target CD7 [54].…”

“…Unlike B‐cell lymphomas, T‐cell lymphomas are associated with an overall poor prognosis and have limited therapeutic options . Targeting T‐cell malignancies with CAR‐T cells is more challenging due to shared antigen expression between normal, malignant, and therapeutic CAR‐T cells, potentially leading to CAR‐T cell fratricide (self‐killing) and prolonged T‐cell aplasia . Unlike the manageable B‐cell aplasia caused by CD19 CAR‐T cells, T‐cell targeted CAR‐Ts may cause profound immunodeficiency similar to that seen following allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) leading to increased risk of severe infections.…”
