Optimized BCMA/CS1 bispecific TRuC-T cells secreting IL-7 and CCL21 robustly control multiple myeloma.

INTRODUCTION: Challenges remain in reducing antigen escape and tumor recurrence while CAR-T cell therapy has substantially improved outcomes in the treatment of multiple myeloma. T cell receptor fusion construct (TRuC)-T cells, which utilize intact T cell receptor (TCR)-CD3 complex to eliminate tumor cells in a non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-restricted manner, represent a promising strategy. Moreover, interleukin-7 (IL-7) is known to enhance the proliferation and survival of T cells. C-C motif chemokine ligand 21 (CCL21) is a ligand for chemokine C-C motif receptor 7 (CCR7) and exh…

Clotrimazole inhibits growth of multiple myeloma cells in vitro via G0/G1 arrest and mitochondrial apoptosis.

Patients with multiple myeloma (MM) experience relapse and drug resistance; therefore, novel treatments are essential. Clotrimazole (CTZ) is a wide-spectrum antifungal drug with antitumor activity. However, CTZ's effects on MM are unclear. We investigated CTZ's effect on MM cell proliferation and apoptosis induction mechanisms. CTZ's effects on MM.1S, NCI- H929, KMS-11, and U266 cell growth were investigated using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The apoptotic cell percentage was quantified with annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate/7-amino actinomycin D staining. Mitochondrial membrane poten…

Increased PVR Expression on Bone Marrow Macrophages May Promote Resistance to TIGIT Blockade in Multiple Myeloma.

PURPOSE: TIGIT blockade in our ex vivo model of bone marrow (BM) reduced the number of malignant plasma cells (PC) in only half of patients with multiple myeloma. Here, we wanted to investigate whether increased expression of TIGIT ligands may inhibit T-cell immune response promoting resistance to TIGIT blockade. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: We first characterized the number and phenotype of BM macrophages in different stages of the disease by multiparameter flow cytometry. We assessed the effect of TIGIT ligands on PC survival by performing experiments in the ex vivo BM model and analyzed changes in…

Isatuximab, lenalidomide, dexamethasone and bortezomib in transplant-ineligible multiple myeloma: the randomized phase 3 BENEFIT trial.

CD38-targeting immunotherapy is approved in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) that are transplant ineligible (TI) and is considered the best standard of care (SOC). To improve current SOC, we evaluated the added value of weekly bortezomib (V) to isatuximab plus lenalidomide and dexamethasone (IsaRd versus Isa-VRd). This Intergroupe Francophone of Myeloma phase 3 study randomized 270 patients with NDMM that were TI, aged 65-79 years, to IsaRd versus Isa-VRd arms. The primary endpoint was a minimal residual disease (MRD) nega…

Elranatamab in Japanese patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma: results from MagnetisMM-2 and MagnetisMM-3.

BackgroundDespite advances, most patients with multiple myeloma (MM) experience relapse and repeat multiple treatment lines, highlighting an unmet need for patients with relapsed or refractory MM (RRMM). Bispecific antibodies are a new option, but their efficacy and safety in Japanese patients are unknown.MethodsThis was an analysis of Japanese patients receiving elranatamab monotherapy in MagnetisMM-2 (NCT04798586) and MagnetisMM-3 (NCT04649359). Both studies evaluated a priming dose regimen of elranatamab followed by weekly subcutaneous doses, in patients with disease progression while recei…

EVIDENCE meta-analysis: evaluating minimal residual disease as an intermediate clinical end point for multiple myeloma.

AbstractEstimating progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival superiority during clinical trials of multiple myeloma (MM) has become increasingly challenging as novel therapeutics have improved patient outcomes. Thus, it is imperative to identify earlier end point surrogates that are predictive of long-term clinical benefit. Minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity is a common intermediate end point that has shown prognostic value for clinical benefit in MM. This meta-analysis was based on the US Food and Drug Administration guidance for considerations for a meta-analysis of MRD as …

Clinical outcomes after idecabtagene vicleucel in older patients with multiple myeloma: a multicenter real-world experience.

AbstractThe safety and efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy is not well described in older patients, a population that has higher frailty and comorbidities. In this multicenter retrospective study, we evaluated clinical outcomes along with frailty and geriatric characteristics such as comorbidities, polypharmacy, falls, neuropathy, organ dysfunction, and performance status in younger (aged <65 years) vs older (aged ≥65 years) patients who received commercial idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel). A total of 156 patients (n = 75, aged ≥65 years) were infused with ide-cel by data cuto

Cost-Effectiveness of Novel Agent Regimens for Transplant-Eligible Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients in India.

BACKGROUND: Survival outcomes for multiple myeloma have improved dramatically since the introduction of novel therapeutic agents. While these drugs are highly effective in improving survival outcomes and quality of life in patients with multiple myeloma, they come at a significant cost. We assessed the cost-effectiveness of bortezomib-based triplet or quadruplet drug regimens in isolation and followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) for the treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) in the Indian context. METHODS: A Markov model was developed to assess …

Affibody-based hBCMA x CD16 dual engagers for NK cell-mediated killing of multiple myeloma cells.

We describe the development and characterization of the (to date) smallest Natural Killer (NK) cell re-directing human B Cell Maturation Antigen (hBCMA) x CD16 dual engagers for potential treatment of multiple myeloma, based on combinations of small 58 amino acid, non-immunoglobulin, affibody affinity proteins. Affibody molecules to human CD16a were selected from a combinatorial library by phage display resulting in the identification of three unique binders with affinities (KD) for CD16a in the range of 100 nM-3 µM. The affibody exhibiting the highest affinity demonstrated insensitivity towar…

Large T cell clones expressing immune checkpoints increase during multiple myeloma evolution and predict treatment resistance.

Tumor recognition by T cells is essential for antitumor immunity. A comprehensive characterization of T cell diversity may be key to understanding the success of immunomodulatory drugs and failure of PD-1 blockade in tumors such as multiple myeloma (MM). Here, we use single-cell RNA and T cell receptor sequencing to characterize bone marrow T cells from healthy adults (n = 4) and patients with precursor (n = 8) and full-blown MM (n = 10). Large T cell clones from patients with MM expressed multiple immune checkpoints, suggesting a potentially dysfunctional phenotype. Dual targeting of PD-1 + L…

Cost-Effectiveness of Anti-BCMA Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy in Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma.

Genomic and immune signatures predict clinical outcome in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma treated with immunotherapy regimens.

Despite improving outcomes, 40% of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma treated with regimens containing daratumumab, a CD38-targeted monoclonal antibody, progress prematurely. By integrating tumor whole-genome and microenvironment single-cell RNA sequencing from upfront phase 2 trials using carfilzomib, lenalidomide and dexamethasone with daratumumab ( NCT03290950 ), we show how distinct genomic drivers including high APOBEC mutational activity, IKZF3 and RPL5 deletions and 8q gain affect clinical outcomes. Furthermore, evaluation of paired bone marrow profiles, taken before and aft…

Acute kidney injury in multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant: a cohort study.

BACKGROUND: Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant plays an important role in multiple myeloma (MM) treatment. Increasing incidence of MM and growing awareness of acute kidney injury (AKI) as a complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplant results in the need to better understand AKI in these patients. We aimed to evaluate incidence, risk factors and 5-year prognostic impact of AKI in MM patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant. METHODS: Retrospective cohort study. AKI was defined by the KDIGO classification using creatinine and urinary output criteria. We…

Changes in immune cell populations following KappaMab, lenalidomide and low-dose dexamethasone treatment in multiple myeloma.

OBJECTIVES: Lenalidomide (LEN) is used to treat multiple myeloma (MM) and shows in vitro synergy with KappaMab (KM), a chimeric antibody specific for Kappa Myeloma antigen, an antigen exclusively expressed on the surface of kappa-restricted MM cells. Lenalidomide, dexamethasone (DEX) and KM control MM via multiple immunomodulatory mechanisms; however, there are several additional effects of the drug combination on immune cells. Lenalidomide can increase T cell and NKT cell cytotoxicity and dendritic cell (DC) activation in vitro. We investigated the immune cell populations in bone marrow of pa…

Challenging Diagnosis of Lytic Bone Lesions Between Multiple Myeloma and Bone Metastasis of Primary Breast Cancer.

Lytic bone lesions include various differential diagnoses, such as bone metastasis of cancer, multiple myeloma, primary bone cancers, and infections. Here, we report a rare case of primary breast cancer complicated by lytic bone lesions mimicking bone metastasis, which was subsequently diagnosed as multiple myeloma. Despite the development of several imaging modalities, such as magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography/computed tomography, diagnosing lytic bone lesions with either multiple myeloma or tumor metastasis is highly challenging. Urinalysis is a noninvasive diagnost…

Discovery of imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazine-containing TAK1 kinase inhibitors with excellent activities against multiple myeloma.

Current treatment options for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) include proteasome inhibitors, anti-CD38 antibodies, and immunomodulatory agents. However, if patients have continued disease progression after administration of these treatments, there are limited options. There is a need for effective targeted therapies of MM. Recent studies have shown that the transforming growth factor-β activated kinase (TAK1) is upregulated and overexpressed in MM. We have discovered that 6-substituted morpholine or piperazine imidazo[1,2-b]pyridazines, with an appropriate aryl substituent at position-3, i…
