AbstractRelapse after CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)–modified T cells remains a substantial challenge. Short CAR T-cell persistence contributes to relapse risk, necessitating novel approaches to prolong durability. CAR T-cell reinfusion (CARTr) represents a potential strategy to reduce the risk of or treat relapsed disease after initial CAR T-cell infusion (CARTi). We conducted a retrospective review of reinfusion of murine (CTL019) or humanized (huCART19) anti–CD19/4-1BB CAR T cells across 3 clinical trials or commercial tisagenlecleucel for relapse prevention (peripheral B-cell recovery [BCR] or marrow hematogones ≤6 months after CARTi), minimal residual disease (MRD) or relapse, or nonresponse to CARTi. The primary endpoint was complete response (CR) at day 28 after CARTr, defined as complete remission with B-cell aplasia. Of 262 primary treatments, 81 were followed by ≥1 reinfusion (investigational CTL019, n = 44; huCART19, n = 26; tisagenlecleucel, n = 11), representing 79 patients. Of 63 reinfusions for relapse prevention, 52% achieved CR (BCR, 15/40 [38%]; hematogones, 18/23 [78%]). Lymphodepletion was associated with response to CARTr for BCR (odds ratio [OR], 33.57; P = .015) but not hematogones (OR, 0.30; P = .291). The cumulative incidence of relapse was 29% at 24 months for CR vs 61% for nonresponse to CARTr (P = .259). For MRD/relapse, CR rate to CARTr was 50% (5/10), but 0/8 for nonresponse to CARTi. Toxicity was generally mild, with the only grade ≥3 cytokine release syndrome (n = 6) or neurotoxicity (n = 1) observed in MRD/relapse treatment. Reinfusion of CTL019/tisagenlecleucel or huCART19 is safe, may reduce relapse risk in a subset of patients, and can reinduce remission in CD19+ relapse.
