Phase I trial of anti-PSMA designer T cells in advanced prostate cancer.
2010
130 Background: We created chimeric immunoglobulin-T cell receptors (IgTCR) specific for prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA). When expressed in patient T cells, these “designer T cells” (dTc) specifically kill prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo in animal models, with 5/9 (55%) of xenografted mice experiencing complete remissions (Ma et al. Prostate 2004:61:12–25). A phase I clinical trial was approved by the FDA. Methods: Patient T cells are retrovirally transduced and expanded ex vivo to span dose levels of 10^9 to 10^11 T cells. Patients undergo prior non-myeloablative (NMA) conditioning to create “hematologic space” into which designer T cells are infused for stable engraftment and prolonged in vivo efficacy. Patients are co-administered continuous infusion IL2. Outcomes include Phase Ia goals of safety and Phase Ib goals of establishing an optimal biologic dose in terms of designer T cell engraftment. Results: Five patients have been treated, three at 10^9 and two at 10^10 cell dose leve...
