1089 Background: In the treatment of breast cancer, the therapeutic efficacy of CAR-T cell therapy remains unsatisfactory. A possible approach to enhance the efficacy of CAR-T therapy is to combine CAR-T with PD-1 inhibition. This clinical trial was designed to assess the safety and tolerability of PD-1 knockout MUC1-targeted CAR-T cells in advanced breast cancer. Methods: Patients with advanced breast cancer were recruited according to the criteria in NCT05812326. PD-1 gene knockout (KO) MUC1-targeted CAR-T cells were prepared in 2 steps. MUC1-specific CARs were first constructed using 5E5 scFv in patient-derived T cells, and then PD-1 gene KO was achieved in these CAR positive T cells using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. Efficiency and validation were confirmed by sequencing and flow cytometry. MUC1-CAR+/PD-1-T cells were infused at a starting dose of 1-2x106 CAR+ cells/kg and then escalated to 0.9-1.8x107 CAR+ cells/kg. The safety and tolerability of therapeutic cells were evaluated using CTCAE v5.0. Patients’ general condition, levels of lymphocytes, and serum cytokines (IL-1β, IL-2R, IL-6, IL-8, TNF and IL-10) were monitored. Circulating CAR-T cells were checked regularly. Changes in tumor size were examined by MRI/CT scans. The primary endpoint was to assess the safety of this treatment. We also compared the responses in patients who received single and multiple cycles of infusion of therapeutic CAR-T cells. Results: A total of 12 patients (aged 34 to 61) diagnosed with recurrent/metastatic breast cancer were included in this study. All participants received at least 1 cycle of CAR-T cell treatment. Among the 12 patients, 8 received 1 cycle, 3 received 2 cycles, 1 received 3 cycles. Adverse events (AEs) included elevated AST level (7/12, 58.3%), acute fever (6/12), elevated ALT level (5/12), skin rash (5/12), chills (4/12), anemia (4/12), lymphopenia (4/12), diarrhea, vomiting and urinary tract infection (2/12). The most serious AE was lymphopenia (grade 4 lasting 1 day in 1 patient). No grade 3-5 CRS was observed. No patients experienced neurotoxicity. No predefined dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) or serious AEs were observed. Furthermore, there were no AEs resulting in discontinuation of treatment. Of the 12 patients evaluated, 5 had stable disease (SD), indicating that MUC1 CAR-T cell therapy can control the progression of some advanced breast cancers, despite the fact that the efficacy assessment is quite preliminary. The pharmacokinetic study indicated that improved clinical outcomes are associated with a high level of circulating CAR+ copy on day 7. Conclusions: Our data suggest that treatment of patients with advanced breast cancer with PD-1 disrupted MUC1-targeted CAR-T cells is safe and well-tolerated by all patients in this phase 1 clinical trial. No serious CRS or other EA was observed throughout the study. The efficacy of this unique combined therapy is currently being assessed. Clinical trial information: NCT05812326 .
