Donor-derived stem cell memory CAR T cells show enhanced expansion and safety in post-HSCT relapse treatment
This first-in-human study (NCT01087294) investigates donor-derived CD19-CAR T cells for treating B cell malignancies relapsing after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The key finding is that CAR-modified stem-cell memory T (TSCM) cells demonstrate significantly greater expansion and persistence compared to standard CAR T cells, enabling complete responses at low doses without requiring lymphodepletion. The therapy induced only mild cytokine-release syndrome dominated by IFN-γ, establishing TSCM cells as a robust and safe platform for next-generation CAR T cell therapy.
