ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The prognosis for large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) patients who did not respond or relapsed after chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy remains dismal, with no established consensus on the most effective salvage regimen. METHODS: We conducted a random-effects meta-analysis of complete response (CR) and overall response rates (ORR) to first-line treatments for CAR-T-relapsed/refractory LBCL. We followed the predefined protocol available at PROSPERO (CRD42023473854). RESULTS: We identified 41 studies evaluating the following interventions: non-CD19 CAR-T, CD19 CAR-T, bispecific antibodies (BiTEs), lenalidomide- and polatuzumab-based regimens, radiotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase inhibitors (BTKi). Non-CD19 CAR-T cells yielded the best CR (56%, CI: 40-71%), significantly higher than other interventions except CD19 CAR-T (CR = 30%, CI: 7-58%). BiTEs, radiotherapy, lenalidomide- and polatuzumab-based regimens (CR: 28%, 26%, 19%, 24% respectively) did not differ significantly from each other. ICI and BTKi showed the lowest CR rates (12%, CI: 5-20% and 8%, CI: 0-23%, respectively), and were also significantly inferior to BiTEs. ORR was the highest for non-CD19 CAR-T (ORR = 80%, CI: 66-92%), whereas all other regimens yielded values below 50%. CONCLUSIONS: Non-CD19 CAR-T cells were associated with higher response rates and should be considered if patients are eligible. Given the heterogeneity of the estimates, the results should be interpreted cautiously. REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42023473854.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the introduction of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies into clinics has been a breakthrough in treating relapsed or refractory malignancies in hematology and oncology. To date, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved six CAR-T therapies for specific non-Hodgkin lymphomas, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and multiple myeloma. All registered treatments and most clinical trials are based on so-called 2nd generation CARs, which consist of an extracellular antigen-binding region, one costimulatory domain, and a CD3z signaling domain. Unfortunately, despite remarkable overall treatment outcomes, a relatively high percentage of patients do not benefit from CAR-T therapy (overall response rate varies between 50 and 100%, with following relapse rates as high as 66% due to limited durability of the response). Moreover, it is associated with adverse effects such as cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity. Advances in immunology and molecular engineering have facilitated the construction of the next generation of CAR-T cells equipped with various molecular mechanisms. These include additional costimulatory domains (3rd generation), safety switches, immune-checkpoint modulation, cytokine expression, or knockout of therapy-interfering molecules, to name just a few. Implementation of next-generation CAR T-cells may allow overcoming current limitations of CAR-T therapies, decreasing unwanted side effects, and targeting other hematological malignancies. Accordingly, some clinical trials are currently evaluating the safety and efficacy of novel CAR-T therapies. This review describes the CAR-T cell constructs concerning the clinical application, summarizes completed and ongoing clinical trials of next-generation CAR-T therapies, and presents future perspectives.

ABSTRACT

Inflammasomes are intracellular multimeric complexes that cleave the precursors of the IL-1 family of cytokines and various proteins, found predominantly in cells of hematopoietic origin. They consist of pattern-recognition receptors, adaptor domains, and the enzymatic caspase-1 domain. Inflammasomes become activated upon stimulation by various exogenous and endogenous agents, subsequently promoting and enhancing inflammatory responses. To date, their function has been associated with numerous pathologies. Most recently, many studies have focused on inflammasomes' contribution to hematological diseases. Due to aberrant expression levels, NLRP3, NLRP1, and NLRC4 inflammasomes were indicated as predominantly involved. The NLRP3 inflammasome correlated with the pathogenesis of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, multiple myeloma, acute myeloid leukemia, lymphoid leukemias, myelodysplastic neoplasms, graft-versus-host-disease, and sickle cell anemia. The NLRP1 inflammasome was associated with myeloma and chronic myeloid leukemia, whereas NLRC4 was associated with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Moreover, specific gene variants of the inflammasomes were linked to disease susceptibility. Despite the incomplete understanding of these correlations and the lack of definite conclusions regarding the therapeutic utility of inflammasome inhibitors, the available results provide a valuable basis for clinical applications and precede upcoming breakthroughs in the field of innovative treatments. This review summarizes the latest knowledge on inflammasomes in hematological diseases, indicates the potential limitations of the current research approaches, and presents future perspectives.
