Definitions

  • First generation CARs are composed of a recognition region, e.g., a single chain fragment variable (scFv) region derived from an antibody for recognition and binding to the antigen expressed by the tumor, and an activation signaling domain, e.g., the CD3z chain of T cells can serve as a T cell activation signal in CARs.
  • a recognition region e.g., a single chain fragment variable (scFv) region derived from an antibody for recognition and binding to the antigen expressed by the tumor
  • an activation signaling domain e.g., the CD3z chain of T cells can serve as a T cell activation signal in CARs.
  • a co-stimulation domain (e.g., CD137, CD28 or CD 134) has been included in second generation CARs to achieve prolonged activation of T cells in vivo. Addition of a co-stimulation domain enhances the in vivo proliferation and survival of T cells containing CARs, and initial clinical data have shown that such constructs are promising therapeutic agents in the treatment of diseases, such as cancer.
  • CAR T cell therapies Although improvements have been made in CAR T cell therapies, several problems remain. First,‘off-target’ toxicity may occur due to normal cells that express the antigen targeted by the CAR T cells (e.g., a tumor-associated antigen). Second, unregulated CAR T cell activation may be found where the rapid and uncontrolled elimination of diseased cells (e.g., cancer cells) by CAR T cells induces a constellation of metabolic disturbances, called tumor lysis syndrome, or cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which can be fatal to patients. Tumor lysis syndrome and CRS can result due to administered CAR T cells that cannot be easily regulated, and are activated uncontrollably. Accordingly, although CAR T cells show great promise as a tool in the treatment of diseases, such as cancer, additional CAR T cell therapies are needed that provide reduced off-target toxicity, and more precise control of CAR T cell activation.
  • diseased cells e.g., cancer cells
  • CRS cytokine release syndrome
  • the“small molecule ligand” can be, for example, a folate, DUPA, an NK-1R ligand, a CAIX ligand, a ligand of gamma glutamyl transpeptidase, an NKG2D ligand, or a CCK2R ligand, each of which is a small molecule ligand that binds specifically to cancer cells (i.e., the receptor for these ligands is overexpressed on cancers compared to normal tissues).
  • the“small molecule ligand” is linked to a“targeting moiety” that binds to the CAR expressed by CAR T cells.
  • the “targeting moiety” can be selected, for example, from fluorescein, fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), NHS-and/or fluorescein.
  • The“targeting moiety” binds to the recognition region of the genetically engineered CAR, expressing an E2 anti-fluorescein antibody fragment. Accordingly, the recognition region of the CAR (e.g., a single chain variable region (scFv) of an E2 anti fluorescein antibody fragment, an Fab, Fv, Fc, (Fab’)2 fragment, and the like) is directed to the “targeting moiety.”
  • the small molecule ligand linked to a targeting moiety by a linker acts as a bridge between the cancer and the CAR T cells, expressing an E2 anti-fluorescein antibody fragment, directing the CAR T cells to the cancer for amelioration of the cancer.
  • a method of treatment of a cancer comprises i) administering to a patient a compound, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein the compound comprises a small molecule ligand linked to a targeting moiety by a linker, ii) administering to the patient a first dose of a CAR T cell composition comprising CAR T cells wherein the CAR T cells comprise a CAR directed to the targeting moiety and wherein the CAR comprises an E2 anti-fluorescein antibody fragment, and iii) administering to the patient a second dose of a CAR T cell composition comprising CAR T cells wherein the CAR T cells comprise the CAR directed to the targeting moiety and wherein the CAR comprises an E2 anti-fluorescein antibody fragment.

  • tumor-infiltrating CAR-T cells pre-weighed fresh tumor fragments were finely minced and enzymatically digested with a digestion cocktail consisting of 0.5 mg/mL collagenase IV, 0.5 mg/mL hyaluronidase and 0.1 mg/mL DNase I in serum- free FFRPMI with vigorous shaking for one hour at 37°C. Afterwards, tumor cell pellets underwent a red blood cell lysis step, washed with cold PBS and filtered through a 40 pm nylon cell strainer.
  • a digestion cocktail consisting of 0.5 mg/mL collagenase IV, 0.5 mg/mL hyaluronidase and 0.1 mg/mL DNase I in serum- free FFRPMI with vigorous shaking for one hour at 37°C.
  • the resulting single cell suspensions were stained for EGFRt and human leukocyte markers, CD137/4-1BB and PD1.
  • a minimum of 20,000 propidium iodide negative live cell events were collected on the Gallios flow cytometer and analyzed with the Kaluza software, version 2.1 (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA).
  • CAR-positive T cells were identified in mouse blood as human CD3e+ EGFRt-l ⁇ - events and absolute numbers per volume of blood were calculated using equal numbers of CountBrightTM beads (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) added to each sample.
  • the number of tumor-infiltrating CD3s+ EGFRt-i- CAR-T cells was expressed as % total viable tumor cells analyzed.
  • mice were placed on either a FA-replete diet (4 mg/kg, Envigo, Indianapolis, IN) or a FA-deficient diet (TestDiet, St. Louis, MO) upon arrival. On day 0, both sets of the mice received -10 million of the same“clinical facsimile” CAR-T cells followed by no EC17 or EC17 SIW at 500 nmol/kg starting on day 3.
  • mice were maintained on defined diets for -73 days and used when their tumors reached -549 ⁇ 184 mm 3 (280-918 mm 3 ) in FA-replete mice, and -559 ⁇ 165 mm 3 (356-961 mm 3 ) in FA-deficient mice ( Figure 63, panels A-D).
  • mice received -10 million of the same“clinical facsimile” of E2-CAR-T cells on day 0, and ECl7-treated cohorts received eight weekly doses of 500 nmol/kg starting on day 2 (FA-replete) or day 3 (FA-deficient).
  • the first full dose of EC17 was generally safe and did not cause any CRS or body weight loss in mice on either diet.
  • FA-replete animals did not show symptoms of CRS throughout EC 17 treatment, whereas FA-deficient animals experienced grades 2-3 CRS and body weight loss (up to -11.4%) with each of the subsequent EC 17 doses (Figure 63, panel A, bottom panels).
