/Optimizing post–chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell monitoring: Evidence across lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) pivotal clinical trials and real-world experience.
Abstract

7026 Background: CAR T cell therapies have shown remarkable efficacy in B-cell NHL. Here, we report CRS and ICANS timing in 1579 patients (pt) treated with liso-cel in clinical trials across indications or in the standard of care (SOC) setting to inform safety monitoring requirements. Methods: Data from pivotal trials (TRANSCEND NHL 001, TRANSCEND CLL 004, TRANSFORM, PILOT, TRANSCEND FL) included pts treated with liso-cel for R/R LBCL, CLL/SLL, MCL, and FL; data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) Registry included pts who received commercial liso-cel for R/R LBCL and had ≥ 1 assessment after infusion. Outcomes were incidence, onset, grade (gr), and duration of CRS and ICANS from pivotal trials and the CIBMTR Registry. Results: Of 702 pts treated with liso-cel in 5 clinical trials, 46% had no CRS, 54% had any-gr CRS (gr ≥ 3 at onset, 1%); 98% of events had onset ≤ 2 wk after infusion and median duration was 5 d (Table). Of 7 pts with CRS onset > Day 15 (gr 1, n = 5; gr 2, n = 2), all resolved. Most (69%) pts had no ICANS, 31% had any-gr ICANS (gr ≥ 3 at onset, 5%); 88% of events had onset ≤ 2 wk after infusion and median duration was 7 d (Table). Of 27 pts with ICANS onset > Day 15 (gr 1, n = 20; gr 2, n = 6; gr 3, n = 1), all resolved except 1 pt with gr 2 leukoencephalopathy. Of 877 liso-cel–treated pts from the CIBMTR Registry, 51% had no CRS, 49% had any-gr CRS (gr ≥ 3, 3%); 97% of events had onset ≤ 2 wk after infusion and median duration was 4 d (Table). Of 15 pts with CRS onset > Day 15 (gr 1, n = 9; gr 2, n = 2; gr 3, n = 1; unknown, n = 3), 13 resolved (missing, n = 2). Most (73%) pts had no ICANS, 27% had any-gr ICANS (gr ≥ 3, 7%). Of 150 pts with reported onset date, 95% had onset ≤ 2 wk after infusion and median duration was 5.5 d. Of 8 pts with ICANS onset > Day 15 (gr 1, n = 5; gr 2, n = 1; gr 4, n = 2), 5 resolved (missing, n = 3). Further characterization/management of CRS/ICANS events will be presented. Conclusions: Data from the liso-cel pivotal clinical trials and SOC setting from the CIBMTR Registry demonstrated that most CRS/ICANS events occurred ≤ 2 wk after infusion and were not severe. For the few pts who experienced onset of CRS/ICANS after Day 15, most events were low grade and resolved.
