GSRS Full Record:

  • Imvucabtagene Geleucel
  • allogeneic T lymphocytes obtained from cryopreserved leukapheresis material of healthy donors, electroporated with CRISPR/Cas12a (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/ CRISPR-associated protein 12a) hybrid RNA-DNA (chRDNA) nucleoprotein complexes to knock out (i) the T cell receptor alpha chain constant (TRAC) and (ii) the beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) locus. The cells are also transduced with two recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (rAAV6) vectors to introduce (i) an anti-B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA, TNFRSF17, CD269) chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) flanked by TRAC homology regions that are inserted into the lymphocyte DNA by homology-directed repair, and (ii) a B2M-HLA-E peptide fusion protein flanked by beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) homology regions that are also inserted into the lymphocyte DNA by homology-directed repair. The anti-BCMA CAR expression cassette comprises in reverse orientation the synthetic MND promoter, Kozak sequence, CD8α signal sequence, anti-BCMA single chain variable fragment (scFv, clone PMC306), CD8 hinge region, CD8 transmembrane (TM) domain, 4-1BB co-stimulatory domain and CD3ζ signaling domain, followed by a bovine growth hormone (BGH) polyadenylation sequence. The B2M-HLA-E fusion protein expression cassette comprises a P2A skipping sequence, a B2M secretion signal, an HLA-G signal peptide sequence, the B2M peptide sequence followed by an HLA-E peptide sequence and a bovine growth hormone (BGH) polyadenylation sequence. The leukapheresis material is stimulated with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies and cultured in the presence of interleukin 2 (IL-2) to enrich for T lymphocytes. The cells are subsequently electroporated with CRISPR/Cas12a chRDNA nucleoprotein complexes and transduced with the two AAV vectors followed by further cell expansion. Finally, residual TCRαβ+ lymphocytes are removed by magnetic depletion. The suspension consists primarily of T lymphocytes (CD4+/CD8+/CD3+ ≥70%) which are ≥32% CAR+, ≥20% B2M-HLA-E+ and are cytotoxic to BCMA expressing target cell
