Exploring Genetic Variation and COVID-19 Clinical Variability – Technology Networks
By daniellenierenberg
One of the biggest challenges that scientists and healthcare professionals are facing during the COVID-19 pandemic is the high rate of clinical variability. Whilst some patients present as asymptomatic, others are developing more severe symptoms such as pneumonia, and some cases are ultimately proving fatal. Why?The answer remains elusive; however, extensive research is exploring the possible contribution our genetics may be having. Genetic variation differences in the DNA sequences that make up our genome can impact our response to infectious diseases.
GoodCell uniquely measures and monitors inherited and acquired genetic variations in stem cells and other nucleated cells in our blood over time. Technology Networks recently spoke with Dr Salvatore Viscomi, chief medical officer at GoodCell, and attending physical at Baystate Health, to explore factors that might influence COVID-19 risk, and to discuss how the company is working to identify at-risk individuals through genetic variation analysis.
Molly Campbell (MC): For our readers that may be unfamiliar, can you discuss why medicine is moving towards a personalized approach, and why this is important considering genetic variation?Salvatore Viscomi (SV): Healthcare has traditionally taken the approach of one size fits all in defining individual risk for a disease and prescribing therapy for it. Understanding the differences between individuals on a molecular level optimizes assessment of an individuals susceptibility to a certain disease and predicting response to pharmacological therapy. Genomics plays the most important role in the emergence of personalized therapy. Identifying the inherited and acquired genetic variation will direct personalized screening and prevention plans and inform bespoke medical therapies.
MC: We know that there is high clinical variability across COVID-19 patients. How might genetic variation be contributing here, and what published evidence exists to support this?SV: Understanding immune response is critical to identifying individuals at high risk of severe morbidity and mortality. Emerging research suggests that accumulated genetic variation in our blood cells may be associated with a dysfunctional inflammatory response to COVID-19 leading to its pulmonary, cardiac and coagulopathic complications.
In a recent study published by JAMA Cardiology, researchers demonstrated an association between the presence of accumulated genetic change in our blood cells and a pro-inflammatory immune response that resembles the exaggerated cytokine release syndrome (CRS) manifested in COVID-19-positive patients. Direct evidence has emerged more recently; a study published in Cancers examined patients hospitalized with COVID-19 and found a significantly higher prevalence of accumulated genetic variation in all age groups compared to age-matched control groups.
MC: What impact might genetic variation in COVID-19 patients have on efforts to develop therapeutics or preventives, such as vaccines?SV: Identifying highly susceptible individuals through blood testing could have many applications. As an initial wave of vaccines move through Phase III trials and potentially come to market, we would have the data to determine prioritization of vaccinations when one is available. Business and government sectors need insight into risk factors that can inform inoculation strategies for societys most vulnerable, inform decisions around who should and should not be on the front lines, and give people more control when making personal decisions about how to mitigate individual risk. The broader field of genetics offers a window into the potential to correlate inherited and acquired gene mutations with immune response for the betterment of society, providing a more robust and accurate set of risk factors unique to every individual.
Furthermore, in high-risk individuals, targeting inflammation may be a clinical strategy to mitigate its clinical consequencesin COVID-19. For example, we may identify patients who are most responsive to pro-inflammatory inhibitors. Implementing measures intended to reduce subjects exposure to the infection or likelihood of contracting such infection through self-isolation, quarantine or social distancing may be advised.
MC: Can you explain the aims of GoodCell, and what the company does in terms of "banking blood for life"?SV: GoodCells mission is to extend and improve the quality of life through technology powered by our own cells. Blood is the author of our bodies, and can both cure as well as cause disease. Through our proprietary data aggregation and analytics technology platform, which aims to decode our blood cells and harness their insights to advance population and personal health, we empower individuals to identify, track and mitigate health risks. By getting ahead of their health risks, we enable the potential for a better life. In addition, through our personal biobanking service, long-term storage of your healthiest cells provides the opportunity for potential use in future therapeutics if you need them you are your best donor.
MC: Does GoodCell measure other "omics" parameters outside of genomics (DNA measurements and analysis), such as proteomics or metabolomics?SV: GoodCells platform leverages the power of blood to assess risk as such, we of course look at acquired and inherited genetic changes, but there are many more opportunities afforded by blood to understand and assess risk including routine blood chemistry tests, tests for biomarkers of disease, including emerging capabilities in liquid biopsy for earlier detection of solid tumor cancers. Ultimately, we are always looking to incorporate novel health and data insights into our product platform to better inform both an individuals health, as well as population-based health. Transcriptomics, epigenomics and metabolomics are but a few of the opportunities we are evaluating.
MC: What work is GoodCell currently conducting in the COVID-19 space?SV: GoodCell is currently engaged in a research collaboration with the New York Blood Center to evaluate how specific acquired and inherited genetic variation contribute to COVID-19 severity and recovery. We are analyzing genetic variation in asymptomatic/mildly symptomatic patients compared to hospitalized/ICU patients. GoodCell will evaluate the genetic variation in the collected samples using our proprietary assay platform to identify and validate their association with COVID-19 morbidity and mortality.

By daniellenierenberg
KENILWORTH, N.J., & WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 10, 2020--
Merck (NYSE: MRK):
KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) Plus LENVIMA (lenvatinib) Demonstrated Statistically Significant Improvement inProgression-Free Survival (PFS), Overall Survival (OS) and Objective Response Rate (ORR) Versus Sunitinib as First-Line Treatment for Patients With Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma
LENVIMA Plus Everolimus Also Showed Statistically Significant Improvement in PFS and ORR Endpoints Versus Sunitinib
Results of Investigational Phase 3 KEYNOTE-581/CLEAR Trial (Study 307) to be Presented at Upcoming Medical Meeting
Merck (NYSE: MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, and Eisai today announced new investigational data demonstrating positive top-line results from the pivotal Phase 3 KEYNOTE-581/CLEAR trial (Study 307). In the trial, the combinations of KEYTRUDA, Mercks anti-PD-1 therapy, plus LENVIMA, the orally available multiple receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor discovered by Eisai, and LENVIMA plus everolimus were evaluated versus sunitinib for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA met the trials primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS) and its key secondary endpoints of overall survival (OS) and objective response rate (ORR), demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS, OS and ORR versus sunitinib in the intention-to-treat (ITT) study population. LENVIMA plus everolimus also met the trials primary endpoint of PFS and a key secondary endpoint of ORR, demonstrating a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in PFS and ORR versus sunitinib in the ITT study population. The ITT population included patients across all Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) risk groups (favorable, intermediate and poor). The safety profiles of both KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA and LENVIMA plus everolimus were consistent with previously reported studies. Merck and Eisai will discuss these data with regulatory authorities worldwide, with the intent to submit marketing authorization applications based on these results, which will be presented at an upcoming medical meeting.
The results for KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA versus sunitinib, which showed a statistically significant improvement in progression-free survival, overall survival and objective response rate, build on the growing scientific evidence that supports the investigation of KEYTRUDA-based combinations for the first-line treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma, said Dr. Gregory Lubiniecki, Associate Vice President, Oncology Clinical Research, Merck Research Laboratories. Merck and Eisai are committed to working together to continue to explore the potential of the KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA combination, particularly in areas of great unmet need such as renal cell carcinoma.
The results from KEYNOTE-581/CLEAR (Study 307) support the potential use of KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA for the first-line treatment of advanced RCC. These data also support the potential first-line use of LENVIMA plus everolimus, which is already approved in advanced RCC following prior antiangiogenic therapy, said Dr. Takashi Owa, Vice President, Chief Medicine Creation and Chief Discovery Officer, Oncology Business Group at Eisai. These findings energize our efforts as we continue to advance our understanding and address the unmet needs of patients with difficult-to-treat cancers.
Merck and Eisai are continuing to study the KEYTRUDA plus LENVIMA combination through the LEAP (LEnvatinib And Pembrolizumab) clinical program across 19 trials in 13 different tumor types (endometrial carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, RCC, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, urothelial cancer, biliary tract cancer, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, glioblastoma, ovarian cancer and triple-negative breast cancer).
About KEYNOTE-581/CLEAR (Study 307)
KEYNOTE-581/CLEAR (Study 307) is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02811861 ) evaluating LENVIMA in combination with KEYTRUDA or in combination with everolimus versus sunitinib for the first-line treatment of patients with advanced RCC. The primary endpoint is PFS by independent review per RECIST v1.1 criteria. Key secondary endpoints include OS, ORR and safety. The study enrolled approximately 1,050 patients who were randomized to one of three treatment arms to receive:
About Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC)
Worldwide, it is estimated there were more than 403,000 new cases of kidney cancer diagnosed and more than 175,000 deaths from the disease in 2018. In the U.S. alone, it is estimated there will be nearly 74,000 new cases of kidney cancer diagnosed and almost 15,000 deaths from the disease in 2020. Renal cell carcinoma is by far the most common type of kidney cancer; about nine out of 10 kidney cancers are RCCs. Renal cell carcinoma is about twice as common in men as in women. Most cases of RCC are discovered incidentally during imaging tests for other abdominal diseases. Approximately 30% of patients with RCC will have metastatic disease at diagnosis, and as many as 40% will develop metastases after primary surgical treatment for localized RCC. Survival is highly dependent on the stage at diagnosis, and with a five-year survival rate of 12% for metastatic disease, the prognosis for these patients is poor.
About KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) Injection, 100 mg
KEYTRUDA is an anti-PD-1 therapy that works by increasing the ability of the bodys immune system to help detect and fight tumor cells. KEYTRUDA is a humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, thereby activating T lymphocytes which may affect both tumor cells and healthy cells.
Merck has the industrys largest immuno-oncology clinical research program. There are currently more than 1,200 trials studying KEYTRUDA across a wide variety of cancers and treatment settings. The KEYTRUDA clinical program seeks to understand the role of KEYTRUDA across cancers and the factors that may predict a patient's likelihood of benefitting from treatment with KEYTRUDA, including exploring several different biomarkers.

Selected Important Safety Information for KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab)
Immune-Mediated Pneumonitis
KEYTRUDA can cause immune-mediated pneumonitis, including fatal cases. Pneumonitis occurred in 3.4% (94/2799) of patients with various cancers receiving KEYTRUDA, including Grade 1 (0.8%), 2 (1.3%), 3 (0.9%), 4 (0.3%), and 5 (0.1%). Pneumonitis occurred in 8.2% (65/790) of NSCLC patients receiving KEYTRUDA as a single agent, including Grades 3-4 in 3.2% of patients, and occurred more frequently in patients with a history of prior thoracic radiation (17%) compared to those without (7.7%). Pneumonitis occurred in 6% (18/300) of HNSCC patients receiving KEYTRUDA as a single agent, including Grades 3-5 in 1.6% of patients, and occurred in 5.4% (15/276) of patients receiving KEYTRUDA in combination with platinum and FU as first-line therapy for advanced disease, including Grades 3-5 in 1.5% of patients.
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of pneumonitis. Evaluate suspected pneumonitis with radiographic imaging. Administer corticosteroids for Grade 2 or greater pneumonitis. Withhold KEYTRUDA for Grade 2; permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA for Grade 3 or 4 or recurrent Grade 2 pneumonitis.
Immune-Mediated Colitis
KEYTRUDA can cause immune-mediated colitis. Colitis occurred in 1.7% (48/2799) of patients receiving KEYTRUDA, including Grade 2 (0.4%), 3 (1.1%), and 4 (<0.1%). Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of colitis. Administer corticosteroids for Grade 2 or greater colitis. Withhold KEYTRUDA for Grade 2 or 3; permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA for Grade 4 colitis.
Immune-Mediated Hepatitis (KEYTRUDA) and Hepatotoxicity (KEYTRUDA in Combination With Axitinib)
Immune-Mediated Hepatitis
KEYTRUDA can cause immune-mediated hepatitis. Hepatitis occurred in 0.7% (19/2799) of patients receiving KEYTRUDA, including Grade 2 (0.1%), 3 (0.4%), and 4 (<0.1%). Monitor patients for changes in liver function. Administer corticosteroids for Grade 2 or greater hepatitis and, based on severity of liver enzyme elevations, withhold or discontinue KEYTRUDA.
Hepatotoxicity in Combination With Axitinib

KEYTRUDA can cause adrenal insufficiency (primary and secondary), hypophysitis, thyroid disorders, and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Adrenal insufficiency occurred in 0.8% (22/2799) of patients, including Grade 2 (0.3%), 3 (0.3%), and 4 (<0.1%). Hypophysitis occurred in 0.6% (17/2799) of patients, including Grade 2 (0.2%), 3 (0.3%), and 4 (<0.1%). Hypothyroidism occurred in 8.5% (237/2799) of patients, including Grade 2 (6.2%) and 3 (0.1%). The incidence of new or worsening hypothyroidism was higher in 1185 patients with HNSCC (16%) receiving KEYTRUDA, as a single agent or in combination with platinum and FU, including Grade 3 (0.3%) hypothyroidism. Hyperthyroidism occurred in 3.4% (96/2799) of patients, including Grade 2 (0.8%) and 3 (0.1%), and thyroiditis occurred in 0.6% (16/2799) of patients, including Grade 2 (0.3%). Type 1 diabetes mellitus, including diabetic ketoacidosis, occurred in 0.2% (6/2799) of patients.
Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of adrenal insufficiency, hypophysitis (including hypopituitarism), thyroid function (prior to and periodically during treatment), and hyperglycemia. For adrenal insufficiency or hypophysitis, administer corticosteroids and hormone replacement as clinically indicated. Withhold KEYTRUDA for Grade 2 adrenal insufficiency or hypophysitis and withhold or discontinue KEYTRUDA for Grade 3 or Grade 4 adrenal insufficiency or hypophysitis. Administer hormone replacement for hypothyroidism and manage hyperthyroidism with thionamides and beta-blockers as appropriate. Withhold or discontinue KEYTRUDA for Grade 3 or 4 hyperthyroidism. Administer insulin for type 1 diabetes, and withhold KEYTRUDA and administer antihyperglycemics in patients with severe hyperglycemia.
Immune-Mediated Nephritis and Renal Dysfunction
KEYTRUDA can cause immune-mediated nephritis. Nephritis occurred in 0.3% (9/2799) of patients receiving KEYTRUDA, including Grade 2 (0.1%), 3 (0.1%), and 4 (<0.1%) nephritis. Nephritis occurred in 1.7% (7/405) of patients receiving KEYTRUDA in combination with pemetrexed and platinum chemotherapy. Monitor patients for changes in renal function. Administer corticosteroids for Grade 2 or greater nephritis. Withhold KEYTRUDA for Grade 2; permanently discontinue for Grade 3 or 4 nephritis.
Immune-Mediated Skin Reactions
Immune-mediated rashes, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) (some cases with fatal outcome), exfoliative dermatitis, and bullous pemphigoid, can occur. Monitor patients for suspected severe skin reactions and based on the severity of the adverse reaction, withhold or permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA and administer corticosteroids. For signs or symptoms of SJS or TEN, withhold KEYTRUDA and refer the patient for specialized care for assessment and treatment. If SJS or TEN is confirmed, permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA.
Other Immune-Mediated Adverse Reactions
Immune-mediated adverse reactions, which may be severe or fatal, can occur in any organ system or tissue in patients receiving KEYTRUDA and may also occur after discontinuation of treatment. For suspected immune-mediated adverse reactions, ensure adequate evaluation to confirm etiology or exclude other causes. Based on the severity of the adverse reaction, withhold KEYTRUDA and administer corticosteroids. Upon improvement to Grade 1 or less, initiate corticosteroid taper and continue to taper over at least 1 month. Based on limited data from clinical studies in patients whose immune-related adverse reactions could not be controlled with corticosteroid use, administration of other systemic immunosuppressants can be considered. Resume KEYTRUDA when the adverse reaction remains at Grade 1 or less following corticosteroid taper. Permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA for any Grade 3 immune-mediated adverse reaction that recurs and for any life-threatening immune-mediated adverse reaction.
The following clinically significant immune-mediated adverse reactions occurred in less than 1% (unless otherwise indicated) of 2799 patients: arthritis (1.5%), uveitis, myositis, Guillain-Barr syndrome, myasthenia gravis, vasculitis, pancreatitis, hemolytic anemia, sarcoidosis, and encephalitis. In addition, myelitis and myocarditis were reported in other clinical trials, including classical Hodgkin lymphoma, and postmarketing use.
Treatment with KEYTRUDA may increase the risk of rejection in solid organ transplant recipients. Consider the benefit of treatment vs the risk of possible organ rejection in these patients.
Infusion-Related Reactions
KEYTRUDA can cause severe or life-threatening infusion-related reactions, including hypersensitivity and anaphylaxis, which have been reported in 0.2% (6/2799) of patients. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infusion-related reactions. For Grade 3 or 4 reactions, stop infusion and permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA.
Complications of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)
Immune-mediated complications, including fatal events, occurred in patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT after treatment with KEYTRUDA. Of 23 patients with cHL who proceeded to allogeneic HSCT after KEYTRUDA, 6 (26%) developed graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (1 fatal case) and 2 (9%) developed severe hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) after reduced-intensity conditioning (1 fatal case). Cases of fatal hyperacute GVHD after allogeneic HSCT have also been reported in patients with lymphoma who received a PD-1 receptorblocking antibody before transplantation. Follow patients closely for early evidence of transplant-related complications such as hyperacute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), Grade 3 to 4 acute GVHD, steroid-requiring febrile syndrome, hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), and other immune-mediated adverse reactions.
In patients with a history of allogeneic HSCT, acute GVHD (including fatal GVHD) has been reported after treatment with KEYTRUDA. Patients who experienced GVHD after their transplant procedure may be at increased risk for GVHD after KEYTRUDA. Consider the benefit of KEYTRUDA vs the risk of GVHD in these patients.
Increased Mortality in Patients With Multiple Myeloma
In trials in patients with multiple myeloma, the addition of KEYTRUDA to a thalidomide analogue plus dexamethasone resulted in increased mortality. Treatment of these patients with a PD-1 or PD-L1 blocking antibody in this combination is not recommended outside of controlled trials.
Embryofetal Toxicity
Based on its mechanism of action, KEYTRUDA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise women of this potential risk. In females of reproductive potential, verify pregnancy status prior to initiating KEYTRUDA and advise them to use effective contraception during treatment and for 4 months after the last dose.

One of the key factors boosting the growth of this market is the limitations of traditional organ transplantation such as the risk of infection, rejection, and immunosuppression risk. Another drawback of conventional organ transplantation is that doctors have to depend on organ donors completely. All these issues can be eliminated, by the application of stem cell therapy. Another factor which is helping the growth in this market is the growing pipeline and development of drugs for emerging applications. Increased research studies aiming to widen the scope of stem cell will also fuel the growth of the market. Scientists are constantly engaged in trying to find out novel methods for creating human stem cells in response to the growing demand for stem cell production to be used for disease management.
It is estimated that the dermatology application will contribute significantly the growth of the global stem cell therapy market. This is because stem cell therapy can help decrease the after effects of general treatments for burns such as infections, scars, and adhesion. The increasing number of patients suffering from diabetes and growing cases of trauma surgery will fuel the adoption of stem cell therapy in the dermatology segment.
Global Stem Cell Therapy Market: Overview
Also called regenerative medicine, stem cell therapy encourages the reparative response of damaged, diseased, or dysfunctional tissue via the use of stem cells and their derivatives. Replacing the practice of organ transplantations, stem cell therapies have eliminated the dependence on availability of donors. Bone marrow transplant is perhaps the most commonly employed stem cell therapy.
Osteoarthritis, cerebral palsy, heart failure, multiple sclerosis and even hearing loss could be treated using stem cell therapies. Doctors have successfully performed stem cell transplants that significantly aid patients fight cancers such as leukemia and other blood-related diseases.

Global Stem Cell Therapy Market: Key Trends
The key factors influencing the growth of the global stem cell therapy market are increasing funds in the development of new stem lines, the advent of advanced genomic procedures used in stem cell analysis, and greater emphasis on human embryonic stem cells. As the traditional organ transplantations are associated with limitations such as infection, rejection, and immunosuppression along with high reliance on organ donors, the demand for stem cell therapy is likely to soar. The growing deployment of stem cells in the treatment of wounds and damaged skin, scarring, and grafts is another prominent catalyst of the market.
On the contrary, inadequate infrastructural facilities coupled with ethical issues related to embryonic stem cells might impede the growth of the market. However, the ongoing research for the manipulation of stem cells from cord blood cells, bone marrow, and skin for the treatment of ailments including cardiovascular and diabetes will open up new doors for the advancement of the market.
Global Stem Cell Therapy Market: Market Potential
A number of new studies, research projects, and development of novel therapies have come forth in the global market for stem cell therapy. Several of these treatments are in the pipeline, while many others have received approvals by regulatory bodies.

About LentiGlobin for SCD (bb1111)
SCD is a serious, progressive and debilitating genetic disease caused by a mutation in the -globin gene that leads to the production of abnormal sickle hemoglobin (HbS), causing red blood cells (RBCs) to become sickled and fragile, resulting in chronic hemolytic anemia, vasculopathy and painful vaso-occlusive events (VOEs). For adults and children living with SCD, this means unpredictable episodes of excruciating pain due to vaso-occlusion as well as other acute complicationssuch as acute chest syndrome (ACS), stroke, and infections, which can contribute to early mortality in these patients.
LentiGlobin for SCD (bb1111) is an investigational gene therapy being studied as a potential treatment for SCD. bluebird bios clinical development program for LentiGlobin for SCD includes the ongoing Phase 1/2 HGB-206 study and the ongoing Phase 3 HGB-210 study.
LentiGlobin for SCD was designed to add functional copies of a modified form of the -globin gene ( A-T87Q -globin gene) into a patients own hematopoietic (blood) stem cells (HSCs). Once patients have the A-T87Q -globin gene, their red blood cells can produce anti-sickling hemoglobin (Hb A-T87Q ) that decreases the proportion of HbS, with the goal of reducing sickled red blood cells, hemolysis and other complications.
As of March 3, 2020, a total of 37 patients have been treated with LentiGlobin for SCD to-date in the HGB-205 (n=3) and HGB-206 (n=34) clinical studies. The HGB-206 total includes: Group A (n=7), B (n=2) and C (n=25).
LentiGlobin for SCD received orphan medicinal product designation from the European Commission for the treatment of SCD, and Priority Medicines (PRIME) eligibility by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in September 2020.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted orphan drug designation, fast track designation, regenerative medicine advanced therapy (RMAT) designation and rare pediatric disease designation for LentiGlobin for SCD. LentiGlobin for SCD continues to be evaluated in the ongoing Phase 1/2 HGB-206 and Phase 3 HGB-210 studies.
bluebird bio is conducting a long-term safety and efficacy follow-up study (LTF-303) for people who have participated in bluebird bio-sponsored clinical studies of LentiGlobin for SCD. For more information visit: https://www.bluebirdbio.com/our-science/clinical-trials or clinicaltrials.gov and use identifier NCT02633943 for LTF-303.
LentiGlobin for SCD is investigational and has not been approved in any geography.
About betibeglogene autotemcel
Transfusion dependent beta-thalassemia (TDT) is a severe genetic disease caused by mutations in the -globin gene that result in reduced or significantly reduced hemoglobin (Hb). In order to survive, people with TDT require chronic blood transfusions to maintain adequate Hb levels. These transfusions carry the risk of progressive multi-organ damage due to unavoidable iron overload.
Betibeglogene autotemcel (beti-cel) adds functional copies of a modified form of the -globin gene ( A-T87Q -globin gene) into a patients own hematopoietic (blood) stem cells (HSCs). Once a patient has the A-T87Q -globin gene, they have the potential to produce HbA -T87Q, which is gene therapy-derived adult hemoglobin, at levels that may eliminate or significantly reduce the need for transfusions.
The European Commission granted conditional marketing authorization (CMA) for beti-cel, marketed as ZYNTEGLO gene therapy, for patients 12 years and older with transfusion-dependent -thalassemia (TDT) who do not have a 0 / 0 genotype, for whom hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation is appropriate, but a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related HSC donor is not available.
As of March 3, 2020, a total of 60 pediatric, adolescent and adult patients, including 11 patients with at least 5 years of follow-up, across genotypes of TDT have been treated with beti-cel in the Phase 1/2 Northstar (HGB-204) and HGB-205 studies, and the Phase 3 Northstar-2 (HGB-207) and Northstar-3 (HGB-212) studies. In studies of beti-cel, patients were assessed for transfusion independence, defined as no longer needing red blood cell transfusions for at least 12 months while maintaining a weighted average Hb of at least 9 g/dL.
Non-serious adverse events (AEs) observed during clinical studies that were attributed to beti-cel included abdominal pain, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, neutropenia, hot flush, dyspnoea, pain in extremity, tachycardia and non-cardiac chest pain. One serious adverse event (SAE) of thrombocytopenia was considered possibly related to beti-cel.
Additional AEs observed in clinical studies were consistent with the known side effects of HSC collection and bone marrow ablation with busulfan, including SAEs of veno-occlusive disease. On April 28, 2020, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) renewed the CMA for beti-cel. The CMA for beti-cel is valid in the 27 member states of the EU as well as UK, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. For details, please see the Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC).
The U.S. FDA granted beti-cel orphan drug designation and Breakthrough Therapy designation for the treatment of TDT. Beti-cel is not approved in the United States. Beti-cel continues to be evaluated in the ongoing Phase 3 Northstar-2 (HGB-207) and Northstar-3 (HGB-212) studies.
bluebird bio is conducting a long-term safety and efficacy follow-up study (LTF-303) for people who have participated in bluebird bio-sponsored clinical studies of beti-cel.
About idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel, bb2121)
Ide-cel is a B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-directed genetically modified autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell immunotherapy. The ide-cel CAR is comprised of a murine extracellular single-chain variable fragment (scFv) specific for recognizing BCMA, attached to a human CD8 hinge and transmembrane domain fused to the T cell cytoplasmic signaling domains of CD137 4-1BB and CD3- chain, in tandem. Ide-cel recognizes and binds to BCMA on the surface of multiple myeloma cells leading to CAR T cell proliferation, cytokine secretion, and subsequent cytolytic killing of BCMA-expressing cells.
Ide-cel is being developed as part of a Co-Development, Co-Promotion and Profit Share Agreement between Bristol Myers Squibb and bluebird bio. Ide-cel was granted accelerated assessment by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) on March 26, 2020, and the Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) was validated by the EMA on May 20, 2020. The FDA accepted the ide-cel Biologics License Application (BLA) for priority review on September 22, 2020.
KarMMa (NCT03361748) is a pivotal, open-label, single-arm, multicenter, multinational, Phase 2 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of ide-cel in adults with RRMM in North America and Europe. The primary endpoint of the study is overall response rate as assessed by an independent review committee (IRC) according to the International Myeloma Working Group (IMWG) criteria. Complete response rate is a key secondary endpoint. Other secondary endpoints include time to response, duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, minimal residual disease evaluated by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) assay and safety. The study enrolled 140 patients, of whom 128 received ide-cel across the target dose levels of 150-450 x 10 6 CAR+ T cells after receiving lymphodepleting chemotherapy. All enrolled patients had received at least three prior treatment regimens, including an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor and an anti-CD38 antibody, and were refractory to their last regimen, defined as progression during or within 60 days of their last therapy.
CRB-401 (NCT02658929) is an open-label Phase 1 study evaluating the preliminary safety and efficacy of ide-cel in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The primary endpoint of the study is safety. CRB-401 was designed as a two-part (dose escalation and dose expansion) study to determine the maximum tolerated dose and further evaluate the safety, tolerability and clinical activity at the recommended Phase 2 dose; these findings established the recommended dose of the Phase 2 KarMMa trial. All patients have been treated in the study and follow-up is ongoing.
In addition to the pivotal KarMMa and CRB-401 trials, bluebird bio and Bristol Myers Squibbs broad clinical development program for ide-cel includes clinical studies (KarMMa-2, KarMMa-3, KarMMa-4) exploring ide-cel combinations and activity in earlier lines of treatment for patients with multiple myeloma, including newly diagnosed multiple myeloma. For more information visit clinicaltrials.gov.
Ide-cel is not approved for any indication in any geography.
About bb21217
bb21217 is an investigational BCMA-targeted CAR T cell therapy that uses the ide-cel CAR molecule and is cultured with the PI3 kinase inhibitor (bb007) to enrich for T cells displaying a memory-like phenotype with the intention to increase the in vivo persistence of CAR T cells. bb21217 is being studied for patients with multiple myeloma in partnership with Bristol Myers Squibb.
bluebird bios clinical development program for bb21217 includes the ongoing Phase 1 CRB-402 study. CRB-402 is the first-in-human study of bb21217 in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), designed to assess safety, pharmacokinetics, efficacy and duration of effect. CRB-402 is a two-part (dose escalation and dose expansion), open-label, multi-site Phase 1 study of bb21217 in adults with RRMM.

Stem Cell Therapy Market is estimated to be worth USD 8.5 Billion by 2030 - PRnews Leader
ADL live: Matters of the Heart Monash University – Monash Lens
By daniellenierenberg
With all the attention still focused on the devastating COVID-19 pandemic despite Australia slowly moving towards a new normal heart disease remains the countrys leading cause of death. It kills one person every 12 minutes, and causes one in four deaths in Australia and beyond.
The heart beats without our active thought, which is why, perhaps, we take for granted the health of this rhythmic, ticking pump; our most vital organ.
Watchthe 'A Different Lens' live event viaFacebookorLinkedInat 7.30pm on Thursday, 5 November
With the launch now of Monash Universitys Victorian Heart Institute (VHI), and the Victorian Heart Hospital (VHH) also opening on campus in 2022, the focus from the experts involved will be on this one-organ system, although from an expansive range of medical and other disciplines. When the under-construction hospital opens, the two new heart hubs will be housed in the same building, making it the centre of heart research, teaching and cardiac care in Australia. It will be the first and only dedicated heart hospital in the country.
Every year, 50,000 Australians will suffer a heart attack, killing 20 people a day, with one person dying every 12 minutes.
Professor Steve Nicholls, a world-renowned cardiologist originally from Adelaide, heads both. The work of the new institute is already underway, and is expected to break down barriers between research, teaching and clinical care.
There is something incredibly exciting about the fact that biomedical research will be happening in the same building that we will treat patients, Professor Nicholls says.
He's outlined what he calls the "five grand challenges"for the next decade of heart research, with the ambition of shifting the status quo in heart disease.
They are:
Living well is understanding that we need to take a more holistic approach to treating heart health, Professor Nicholls says.
We need to consider diet, sleep, mindfulness and wellbeing, but also survivorship. People who survive other diseases like cancer now find themselves at a great risk of heart disease. How do we improve health, and the patient experience for them?
Dr Emily Kotschet, a Monash cardiologist and electrophysiologist, is a specialist in the technology and "mechanical intervention"(pacemaker) side of the equation.
Technology is best when you are advancing in terms of treatment, not just prevention, she says.
The advances right now are miniaturisation and digital technology for managing patients remotely implantables that are remote-accessed, self-sufficient and patient driven. With the patients in more control than ever, their experience is continually improving.
Technologically, the old pacemaker was a big can on your shoulder with leads to the heart, she says.
The new ones are like AAA batteries that sit beside the heart. As we miniaturise for treatment, there will be way more engagement with patients to pick up their symptoms early and get on top of them early. Discussions with IT academics at Monash will bridge the gap between our method and the digital platforms that are emerging.
Dr Kotschet also says womens heart health has not had the media profile and reach that breast cancer has, so public awareness is low.
I think breast cancer really got cancer into the spotlight 15 or 20 years ago with celebrities and endorsements, and they are now well-funded. Their [clinical]trials are travelling quite nicely. Now I think its time for heart disease as a big killer to find its spotlight.
This ability to more freely collaborate across university disciplines on an ostensibly "medical"issue is a priority for the heart specialists and clinicians.
The head of the School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Professor Sophia Zoungas, is a leading expert in screening and managing cardiovascular disease. She likens the new institute and hospital to a forward-thinking company such as Google that, when presented with a problem, draws in the best minds available to help solve it.
Despite the fact the institute and hospital have a physical location, it also provides a forum for virtual, broader work, bringing in areas across the University that may not be co-located, she says.
Whether thats public health, engineering, science hopefully it will also provide that core clinical training for clinicians and researchers in the one place. We will be able to track the best people, the best minds.
She says COVID-19 has put heart disease further under the radar.
People forget heart disease is still our biggest killer. We have all been a little distracted this year with the global pandemic but even within the context of this pandemic, one of the most serious outcomes of it [for patients]has been the cardiovascular complications.
For Professor Peter Currie, the head of Monashs renowned Australian Regenerative Medicine Institute (ARMI), the future of heart health relies on scientists understanding the fundamental building blocks of the heart. Despite the heart being unable to repair itself (unlike other organs), and the fact that stem cells do not work, Professor Currie has an optimistic view of how regenerative medicine can create the heart disease solutions of the future. He sees this is as the challenge, and the new institute and hospital as the place to do it.
I think the great opportunity is to cherry-pick interested and dedicated researchers who have an interest in this area of biology and medicine to work on these big problems.
Everyone thinks cardiovascular disease has been hit on the head because weve got a few drugs, he says, but nothing could be further from the truth.

Orphan Drug Designation Granted for CSL Behring’s Investigational Plasma-Derived Hemopexin Therapy for Sickle Cell Disease – PRNewswire
By daniellenierenberg
KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa., Nov. 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Global biotherapeutics leader CSL Behring announced today that its investigational, plasma-derived hemopexin therapy (CSL889) received orphan drug designation from both the European Commission and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Office of Orphan Products Development for the treatment of sickle cell disease (SCD). These designations grant special status to drugs and biological products intended to treat a rare disease, affecting less than 200,000 patients in the US or affecting not more than five in 10,000 people in the European Union.
CSL889 is a form of plasma-derived hemopexin, an important, naturally occurring protein produced in the body whose levels are decreased in patients with SCD. Low levels of hemopexin have been associated with increased symptoms in SCD, particularly acute vaso-occlusive crises (VOC). VOC, the most common manifestation in SCD, are severe, debilitating episodes characterized by severe pain. There is no approved treatment for acute VOC, so episodes can only be managed with supportive measures such as fluids and pain killers.
"Having treated hundreds of adults and children living with sickle cell disease over 30 years, I'm intensely aware of the need for novel and effective therapies, especially to relieve the tremendous pain from VOC," said Professor Greg Kato, who is leading the clinical development of CSL 889 at CSL Behring. "This newly granted orphan status recognizes the urgency for progressing new treatment options into the clinic."
CSL Behring has two Phase I SCD programs poised to evolve the treatment paradigm for patients: CSL889 hemopexin therapy for the treatment of VOC and CSL200 lentiviral stem cell gene therapy for long-term disease management.
About Sickle Cell Disease
Sickle Cell Disease is a hereditary blood disorder in which red blood cells contain an abnormal type of hemoglobin, causing some of the cells to become distorted into a crescent, or sickle-shape. These misshapen red blood cells have difficulty passing through small blood vessels, slowing and blocking blood flow to areas of the body, damaging tissue that isn't receiving a normal flow of blood. Sickle Cell Disease can lead to episodes of severe pain, strokes, kidney, lung and heart problems, slow growth, vision problems and infection vulnerability. While frequency of Sickle Cell Disease varies globally, it is estimated to impact 100,000 people in the US and 1 in 10,000 persons in the European Union.
About CSL Behring

Novartis expands Kymriah manufacturing footprint with first-ever approved site for commercial CAR-T cell therapy manufacturing in Asia – GlobeNewswire
By daniellenierenberg
Basel, October 30, 2020 Novartis today announced the receipt of marketing authorization from Japans Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare (MHLW) for Foundation for Biomedical Research and Innovation at Kobe ("FBRI") to manufacture and supply commercial Kymriah (tisagenlecleucel) for patients in Japan. This approval makes FBRI the first and only approved commercial manufacturing site for CAR-T cell therapy in Asia.
Behind our efforts to reimagine medicine with CAR-T cell therapy lies a commitment to build a manufacturing network that brings treatment closer to patients, commented Steffen Lang, Global Head of Novartis Technical Operations. The expertise and infrastructure of FBRI, a world-leading manufacturing organization, allows us to bring CAR-T manufacturing to Asia. With the Japan MHLW commercial manufacturing approval, the recent capacity expansion in the US and our ongoing efforts to optimize and evolve our processes, we are well-positioned to deliver this potentially curative treatment option to more patients around the world.
Novartis has the largest geographical CAR-T cell therapy manufacturing network in the world, including seven CAR-T manufacturing facilities, across four continents. Commercial manufacturing for Kymriah now takes place at five sites globally including at the Morris Plains, New Jersey facility, where the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved a further increase in manufacturing capacity.
Kymriah is the first-ever FDA-approved CAR-T cell therapy, and the first-ever CAR-T to be approved in two distinct indications. It is a one-time treatment designed to empower patients immune systems to fight their cancer. Kymriah is currently approved for the treatment of r/r pediatric and young adult (up to 25 years of age) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and r/r adult diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL)1. Kymriah, approved in both indications by the Japan MHLW in 2019, is currently the only CAR-T cell therapy approved in Asia. Clinical manufacturing began at FBRI in 2019 and will continue alongside commercial manufacturing.
Kymriah was developed in collaboration with the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, a strategic alliance between industry and academia, which was first-of-its-kind in CAR-T research and development.
About Novartis Commitment to Oncology Cell & Gene Novartis has a mission to reimagine medicine by bringing curative cell & gene therapies to patients worldwide. Novartis has a deep CAR-T pipeline and ongoing investment in manufacturing and supply chain process improvements. With active research underway to broaden the impact of cell and gene therapy in oncology, Novartis is going deeper in hematological malignancies, reaching patients with other cancer types and evaluating next-generation CAR-T cell therapies that focus on new targets and utilize new technologies.
Novartis was the first pharmaceutical company to significantly invest in pioneering CAR-T research and initiate global CAR-T trials. Kymriah, the first approved CAR-T cell therapy, developed in collaboration with the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, is the foundation of Novartis commitment to CAR-T cell therapy. Kymriah is currently approved for use in at least one indication in 26 countries and at more than 260 certified treatment centers, with the ambition for further expansion to help fulfill the ultimate goal of bringing CAR-T cell therapy to every patient in need.
The Novartis global CAR-T manufacturing footprint spans seven facilities, across four continents. This comprehensive, integrated footprint strengthens the flexibility, resilience and sustainability of the Novartis manufacturing and supply chain. Commercial and clinical trial manufacturing is now ongoing at Novartis-owned facilities in Stein, Switzerland, Les Ulis, France and Morris Plains, New Jersey, USA, as well as at the contract manufacturing sites at Fraunhofer-Institut for cell therapy and immunology (Fraunhofer-Institut fr Zelltherapie und Immunologie) facility in Leipzig, Germany, and now FBRI in Kobe, Japan. Manufacturing production at Cell Therapies in Australia and Cellular Biomedicine Group in China is forthcoming.
ImportantSafety information from the Kymriah SmPC
EU Name of the medicinal product:
Kymriah 1.2 x 106 6 x 108 cells dispersion for infusion
Important note: Before prescribing, consult full prescribing information.
Presentation: Cell dispersion for infusion in 1 or more bags for intravenous use (tisagenlecleucel).
Indications: Treatment of pediatric and young adult patients up to and including 25 years of age with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) that is refractory, in relapse posttransplant or in second or later relapse. Treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after two or more lines of systemic therapy.
Dosage and administration:
B-cell patients: For patients 50 kg and below: 0.2 to 5.0 x 106 CAR-positive viable T-cells/kg body weight. For patients above 50 kg: 0.1 to 2.5 x 108 CAR-positive viable T-cells (non-weight based).
DLBCL Patients: 0.6 to 6.0108 CAR-positive viable T-cells (non-weight based).
Pretreatment conditioning (lymphodepleting chemotherapy): Lymphodepleting chemotherapy is recommended to be administered before Kymriah infusion unless the white blood cell (WBC) count within one week prior to infusion is 1,000 cells/L. The availability of Kymriah must be confirmed prior to starting the lymphodepleting regimen.
Precautions before handling or administering Kymriah: Kymriah contains genetically modified human blood cells. Healthcare professionals handling Kymriah should therefore take appropriate precautions (wearing gloves and glasses) to avoid potential transmission of infectious diseases.
Preparation for infusionThe timing of thaw of Kymriah and infusion should be coordinated. Once Kymriah has been thawed and is at room temperature (20C 25C), it should be infused within 30minutes to maintain maximum product viability, including any interruption during the infusion.
Administration Kymriah should be administered as an intravenous infusion through latexfree intravenous tubing without a leukocyte depleting filter, at approximately 10 to 20mL per minute by gravity flow. If the volume of Kymriah to be administered is 20mL, intravenous push may be used as an alternative method of administration.
All contents of the infusion bag(s) should be infused.
Clinical assessment prior to infusion: Kymriah treatment should be delayed in some patient groups at risk (see Special warnings and precautions for use).
Monitoring after infusion: Patients should be monitored daily for the first 10 days following infusion for signs and symptoms of potential cytokine release syndrome, neurological events and other toxicities. Physicians should consider hospitalisation for the first 10 days post infusion or at the first signs/symptoms of CRS and/or neurological events. After the first 10 days following the infusion, the patient should be monitored at the physicians discretion. Patients should be instructed to remain within proximity of a qualified clinical facility for at least 4 weeks following infusion.
Elderly (above 65 years of age): Safety and efficacy have not been established in B-cell patients. No dose adjustment is required in patients over 65 years of age in DLBCL patients.
Paediatric patients: No formal studies have been performed in paediatric patients with B-cell ALL below 3 years of age. The safety and efficacy of Kymriah in children and adolescents below 18 years of age have not yet been established in DLBCL. No data are available.
Patients seropositive for hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV): There is no experience with manufacturing Kymriah for patients with a positive test for HIV, active HBV, or active HCV infection. Leukapheresis material from these patients will not be accepted for Kymriah manufacturing.
Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients of Kymriah. Contraindications of the lymphodepleting chemotherapy must be considered.
Warnings and precautions: Reasons to delay treatment: Due to the risks associated with Kymriah treatment, infusion should be delayed if a patient has any of the following conditions: Unresolved serious adverse reactions (especially pulmonary reactions, cardiac reactions or hypotension) from preceding chemotherapies, active uncontrolled infection, active graft versus host disease (GVHD), significant clinical worsening of leukaemia burden or rapid progression of lymphoma following lymphodepleting chemotherapy. Blood, organ, tissue and cell donation: Patients treated with Kymriah should not donate blood, organs, tissues or cells.
Active central nervous system (CNS) leukaemia or lymphoma: There is limited experience of use of Kymriah in patients with active CNS leukaemia and active CNS lymphoma. Therefore the risk/benefit of Kymriah has not been established in these populations. Risk of CRS: Occurred in almost all cases within 1 to 10 days post infusion with a median time to onset of 3 days and a median time to resolution of8 days. See full prescribing information for management algorithm of CRS. Risk of neurological events: Majority of events, in particular encephalopathy, confusional state or delirium, occurred within 8 weeks post infusion and were transient. The median time to onset of neurological events was 8 days in B-cell ALL and 6 days in DLBCL; the median time to resolution was 7 days for B-cell ALL and 13 days for DLBCL. Patients should be monitored for neurological events. Risk of infections: Delay start of therapy with Kymriah until active uncontrolled infections have resolved. As appropriate, administer prophylactic antibiotics and employ surveillance testing prior to and during treatment with Kymriah. Serious infections were observed in patients, some of which were life threatening or fatal. After Kymriah administration observe patient and ensure prompt management in case of signs of infection Risk of febrile neutropenia: Frequently observed after Kymriah infusion, may be concurrent with CRS. Appropriate management necessary. Risk of prolonged cytopenias: Appropriate management necessary. Prolonged cytopenia has been associated with increased risk of infections. Myeloid growth factors, particularly granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM CSF), not recommended during the first 3 weeks after Kymriah infusion or until CRS has been resolved. Risk of secondary malignancies: Patients treated with Kymriah may develop secondary malignancies or recurrence of their cancer and should be monitored lifelong for secondary malignancies. Risk of hypogammaglobulinemia or agammaglobulinemia: Infection precautions, antibiotic prophylaxis and immunoglobulin replacement should be managed per age and standard guidelines. In patients with low immunoglobulin levels preemptive measures such as immunoglobulin replacement and rapid attention to signs and symptoms of infection should be implemented. Live vaccines: The safety of immunisation with live viral vaccines during or following Kymriah treatment was not studied. Vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended at least 6 weeks prior to the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy, during Kymriah treatment, and until immune recovery following treatment with Kymriah. Risk of tumor lysis syndrome (TLS): Patients with elevated uric acid or high tumor burden should receive allopurinol or alternative prophylaxis prior to Kymriah infusion. Continued monitoring for TLS following Kymriah administration should also be performed. Concomitant disease: Patients with a history of active CNS disorder or inadequate renal, hepatic, pulmonary or cardiac function are likely to be more vulnerable to the consequences of the adverse reactions of Kymriah and require special attention. Prior stem cell transplantation: Kymriah infusion is not recommended within 4 months of undergoing an allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) because of potential risk of worsening GVHD. Leukapheresis for Kymriah manufacturing should be performed at least 12weeks after allogeneic SCT. Serological testing: There is currently no experience with manufacturing Kymriah for patients testing positive for HBV, HCV and HIV. Screening for HBV, HCV and HIV, must be performed before collection of cells for manufacturing. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation, can occur in patients treated with medicinal products directed against B cells and could result in fulminant hepatitis, hepatic failure and death. Prior treatment with anti CD19 therapy: There is limited experience with Kymriah in patients exposed to prior CD19 directed therapy. Kymriah is not recommended if the patient has relapsed with CD19 negative leukaemia after prior anti-CD19 therapy. Interference with serological testing: Due to limited and short spans of identical genetic information between the lentiviral vector used to create Kymriah and HIV, some commercial HIV nucleic acid tests (NAT) may give a false positive result. Sodium and potassium content: This medicinal product contains 24.3 to 121.5mg sodium per dose, equivalent to 1 to 6% of the WHO recommended maximum daily intake of 2g sodium for an adult. This medicinal product contains potassium, less than 1mmol (39mg) per dose, i.e. essentially potassium free. Content of dextran 40 and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO): Contains 11 mg dextran 40 and 82.5 mg dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) per mL. Each of these excipients are known to possibly cause anaphylactic reaction following parenteral administration. Patients not previously exposed to dextran and DMSO should be observed closely during the first minutes of the infusion period.
Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
Live vaccines: The safety of immunisation with live viral vaccines during or following Kymriah treatment has not been studied. Vaccination with live virus vaccines is not recommended for at least 6 weeks prior to the start of lymphodepleting chemotherapy, during Kymriah treatment, and until immune recovery following treatment with Kymriah.
Fertility, pregnancy and lactation
Women of childbearing potential/Contraception in males and females: Pregnancy status for females of reproductive potential should be verified prior to starting treatment with Kymriah. Consider the need for effective contraception in patients who receive the lymphodepleting chemotherapy. There are insufficient exposure data to provide a recommendation concerning duration of contraception following treatment with Kymriah.
Pregnancy: There are no data from the use of Kymriah in pregnant women. It is not known whether Kymriah has the potential to be transferred to the foetus via the placenta and could cause foetal toxicity, including B cell lymphocytopenia. Kymriah is not recommended during pregnancy and in women of childbearing potential not using contraception. Pregnant women should be advised on the potential risks to the foetus. Pregnancy after Kymriah therapy should be discussed with the treating physician. Pregnant women who have received Kymriah may have hypogammaglobulinaemia. Assessment of immunoglobulin levels is indicated in newborns of mothers treated with Kymriah.
Breast feeding: It is unknown whether Kymriah cells are excreted in human milk, a risk to the breast fed infant cannot be excluded. Women who are breast feeding should be advised of the potential risk to the breast fed infant. Breast-feeding should be discussed with the treating physician.
Fertility: There are no data on the effect of Kymriah on fertility.
Effects on ability to drive and use machinesDriving and engaging in hazardous activities in the 8 weeks following infusion should be refrained due to risks for altered or decreased consciousness or coordination.

Regenerative medicine also involves the attempts to grow tissues and organs in a laboratory environment, wherein they can be put in a body that cannot heal a particular part. Such implants are mainly preferred to be derived from the patients own tissues and cells, particularly stem cells. Looking at the promising nature of stem cells to heal and regenerative various parts of the body, this field is certainly expected to see a bright future. Doing this can help avoid opting for organ donation, thus saving costs. Some healthcare centers might showcase a shortage of organ donations, and this is where tissues regenerated using patients own cells are highly helpful.
There are several source materials from which regeneration can be facilitated. Extracellular matrix materials are commonly used source substances all over the globe. They are mainly used for reconstructive surgery, chronic wound healing, and orthopedic surgeries. In recent times, these materials have also been used in heart surgeries, specifically aimed at repairing damaged portions.
Cells derived from the umbilical cord also have the potential to be used as source material for bringing about regeneration in a patient. A vast research has also been conducted in this context. Treatment of diabetes, organ failure, and other chronic diseases is highly possible by using cord blood cells. Apart from these cells, Whartons jelly and cord lining have also been shortlisted as possible sources for mesenchymal stem cells. Extensive research has conducted to study how these cells can be used to treat lung diseases, lung injury, leukemia, liver diseases, diabetes, and immunity-based disorders, among others.

Role of Trop-2 as an Actionable Biomarker in Solid Tumors – OncLive
By daniellenierenberg
Trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (Trop-2) is a glycoprotein that spans the epithelial membrane surface and plays a role in cell self-renewal, proliferation, and transformation.1,2 Encoded by the TACSTD2 gene, Trop-2 is a 35-kDa protein composed of a large extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain, and a short intracellular tail that is the functionally dominant part of the protein.1-4
Under physiological conditions, Trop-2 plays an essential role in embryonic development, placental tissue formation, embryo implantation, stem cell proliferation, and organ development.2 A low basal expression level of Trop-2 is found on the surface of multiple normal epithelial tissues, including skin and oral mucosa.1,3 Trop-2 can promote tumor growth and its overexpression is common in many types of malignant epithelial tumors.1,2,4
Expression of Trop-2 is regulated by several pro-oncogenic transcription factors (eg, CREB1, nuclear factor [NF]B, and HOXA10) via positive feedback relationships.2 Trop-2 expression may be upregulated because of the inactivation of several transcription factors (eg, HNF4A, TP63/TP53L, ERG, HNF1A/TCF-1, and FOXP3).1,2 Overexpression of Trop-2 accelerates the cancer cell cycle and drives cancer growth. Knocking out the TACSTD2 gene disturbs the proliferation of tumor cells, further validating the role of Trop-2 in tumorigenesis.1
Trop-2 was first elucidated as a transducer of intracellular calcium signals; however, it is now known to function in a variety of cell signaling pathways associated with tumorigenesis (Figure 1).1,2,4 Expression of Trop-2, as a calcium signal transducer, causes calcium to be mobilized from internal stores. Increased intracellular calcium levels activate MAPK, which in turn increases levels of phosphorylated ERK1 and ERK2.2,4 ERK1 and ERK2 are important mediators of cell cycle progression, angiogenesis, cell proliferation, cell invasion, and metastasis.2,4 Intracellular calcium also activates the NF-B pathway, which is involved in stimulation of cell growth, and the RAF pathway, which is essential for the upregulation of FOXM1, one of the most commonly overexpressed genes in human solid tumors.2
In addition to stimulating calcium release and MAPK signaling, Trop-2 is involved in several other pro-oncogenic signaling pathways, leading to tumor cell growth and proliferation. Activation of cyclin E and D further promotes cell cycle progression.4Alteration of the Notch, Hedgehog, and Wnt pathways may discourage appropriate stem cell proliferation and differentiation.2,4 Trop-2 signaling also appears to be dependent on -catenin.5 Direct interaction between -catenin and the intracellular domain of Trop-2, through -catenin signaling, enhances stem celllike properties (eg, self-renewal and transformation) of cancer cells.5 Attenuation of IGF-1 receptor signaling by Trop-2 encourages cancer growth and malignancy, particularly in lung cancers.2
Trop-2 is inextricably linked to cancer progression and metastasis because of its role as a key regulator of the hallmarks of cancer, including cell growth, proliferation, migration, invasion, and survival.4 A variety of human epithelial cancer cells are characterized by Trop-2 overexpression, including breast, lung, urothelial, gastric, colorectal, pancreatic, prostatic, cervical, head and neck, and ovarian carcinomas.2,3 In an analysis of 702 tissue samples from patients with breast cancer, Trop-2 expression was detected via immunohistochemistry (IHC) across a wide range of breast cancer subtypes.6 Trop-2 expression is substantially higher in hormone receptorpositive/HER2-negative (HR+/HER2-) disease and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) compared with other breast cancer subtypes, including HER2-positive disease.7
Trop-2 overexpression is also common in nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC).8 Using IHC on tissues collected from the tumors of 68 patients with NSCLC, Trop-2 expression was significantly higher in NSCLC tissues compared with matched healthy tissues (P < .05). Moreover, its overexpression was associated with worse tumor, node, metastasis stage (P = .012), lymph node metastasis (P = .038), and histologic grade (P = .013).9
Bladder cancer, the most common urothelial cancer, is also marked by elevated Trop-2 expression.10,11 In a study of 102 transitional cell bladder cancer samples, IHC staining for Trop-2 demonstrated increased Trop-2 expression compared with noncancerous samples, and this expression pattern was significantly associated with worsened tumor grade (P = .001), stage (P < .0 01), and bladder cancer recurrence (P = .0 3).11
Molecular markers that influence the biological progress of tumors often serve as important prognostic indicators. Overexpression of Trop-2 has been associated with more aggressive disease, poorer overall survival (OS), and worse disease-free survival in patients with solid tumors.4 A meta-analysis conducted in 2016 explored the association of Trop-2 expression and prognosis in patients with a variety of solid tumors (N = 2569). Results from the study showed that high Trop-2 expression negatively affected OS (hazard ratio, 1.896; 95% CI, 1.599-2.247; P < .001) and disease-free survival (pooled hazard ratio, 2.336; 95% CI, 1.596-3.419; P < .0 01).12
Specific to breast cancers, increased Trop-2 mRNA is a strong predictor of lymph node involvement, distant metastasis, and poor OS.13,14 Trop-2 is expressed across all breast cancer subtypes; however, overexpression appears more common in aggressive disease subtypes, including HR+/HER2- disease and TNBC.7
Trop-2 overexpression is also associated with poor outcomes in patients with urothelial cancer. In an analysis of 102 tissue samples collected from patients with noninvasive bladder cancer, Trop-2 expression was higher in samples from patients who experienced disease recurrence compared with those who did not have recurrent disease (P = .0 3). Additionally, patients with Trop-2 overexpression had significantly lower rates of recurrence-free survival (P = .0 01).11 In a separate study, high Trop-2 expression analyzed by IHC was strongly correlated with bladder cancer severity and worsened disease prognosis, with particularly strong Trop-2 expression in muscle-invasive bladder cancer tissues compared with normal bladder tissues (P < .0 01).15
Taken together, the data indicate that Trop-2 is a potentially valuable therapeutic target, given the connection between its overexpression and poor prognosis in various solid tumors.4,15 Its value as a prognostic indicator and potential target for therapeutic development is particularly evident in advanced cancers that have limited or few treatment options available, such as TNBC and metastatic urothelial cancers.
Metastatic TNBC
TNBC is an aggressive form of invasive breast cancer that accounts for 15% to 20% of all breast cancers and a disproportionate number of deaths due to breast cancer.16-18 Its prevalence is particularly high in premenopausal women and those of African American and Hispanic descents.17,19 TNBC is characterized by a lack of estrogen and progesterone receptors and a low expression of HER2; therefore, TNBC cannot be effectively treated with standard hormone-based therapies and HER2-targeted agents.16, 20Although chemotherapy has shown promising results in early TNBC, the majority of patients relapse and progress to metastatic TNBC within the first 3 to 5 years after initial treatment.18 The treatment of metastatic TNBC remains a clinical challenge, as no standard-of-care chemotherapy exists for previously treated patients.17,18 There is an urgent unmet need for effective treatment options in patients with metastatic TNBC.18
Metastatic Urothelial Cancer
In the United States, an estimated 81,400 new cases of urothelial cancer will be diagnosed in 2020, and approximately 18,000 Americans will die from the disease.21 The majority of urothelial cancers arise in the bladder, and established risk factors for bladder cancer include older age, male gender, Caucasian race, family history, and smoking.22,23 Muscle-invasive and meta-static urothelial cancers represent 25% of urothelial carcinoma cases and are characterized by substantially worse prognostic outcomes.23,24 Current chemotherapeutic options for metastatic disease offer a modest median OS of 15 months and a 5-year survival of less than 5%.23,24 Long-term survival is infrequent, and newer treatment modalities that target distinct molecular biomarkers are warranted.24,25
As Trop-2 is a clinically relevant cell surface antigen among several solid tumor types, its overexpression on cancer cells makes it an ideal candidate for targeting by specific therapies.26 One targeted approach involves the use of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), a technology that has revolutionized the approach to cancer chemo-therapy over the past 2 decades.26
An ADC is designed to contain 3 components: a monoclonal antibody (mAb), a cytotoxic drug called a payload, and a linker that connects the mAb to the cytotoxin. The mAb binds specifically to its tumor-associated antigen (eg, Trop-2), thereby delivering the cytotoxin to the surface of the tumor cell. Once bound, the ADC is internalized through receptor-mediated endocytosis. Lysosomal degradation of the ADC ensues, facilitating the release of the cytotoxin and enabling it to bind to its intracellular target and induce apoptotic cell death (Figure 2).26,27 The targeted nature of ADCs allows potent therapy to be delivered to the cancer cell itself, limiting systemic exposure. The result is fewer adverse effects (AEs), a wider therapeutic window, and reduced exposure of the drug to efflux mechanisms that can increase drug resistance.26,27
Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is the only FDA-approved Trop-2targeted ADC, and several other agents are under preclinical and clinical development.28
Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is an ADC that binds to Trop-2 and delivers a potent cytotoxic drug into tumor cells.29,30 The FDA recently granted it accelerated approval for the treatment of metastatic TNBC, and it has also received fast track designation for metastatic urothelial carcinoma, NSCLC, and small cell lung cancer.28,30-32
The composition of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy has been optimized to effectively target tumors expressing Trop-2. A humanized monoclonal antibody (hRS7) binds to Trop-2 and delivers govitecan (SN-38) to the cell surface. SN-38 is the active metabolite of irinotecan and functions as a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor. A hydrolysable CL2a linker covalently binds SN-38 to h R S 7.30 When released intracellularly, SN-38 causes double-stranded DNA breaks that lead to apoptosis.29 Additionally, the hydrolysable linker allows a portion of the SN-38 payload to be released into the tumor microenvironment, leading adjacent tumor cells to be killed via a bystander effect.31,32
Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy delivers SN-38 in its most active nonglucuronidated form. Because of its moderate toxicity profile, SN-38 is conjugated to hRS7 at a high drug-to-antibody ratio of up to 8 SN-38 molecules per antibody, allowing for greater drug delivery than systemic irinotecan can achieve.29,32 Irinotecan causes grade 3 to 4 diarrhea in approximately one-third of patients, whereas the lower toxicity of SN-38 may confer an improved therapeutic index.29,30 This high level of drug delivery may overcome the ability of Trop-2expressing tumors to repair DNA breaks.30
On April 22, 2020, sacituzumab govitecan-hziy received accelerated approval from the FDA for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic TNBC who have received at least 2 prior therapies for metastatic disease.28 Approval was based on findings of the phase 1/2, single-arm, multicenter IM-T-IMMU-132-01 trial (NCT01631552), in which sacituzumab govitecan-hziy produced durable responses in a subset of patients with heavily pretreated metastatic TNBC.31,33
The IM-T-IMMU-132-01 trial enrolled 108 patients with metastatic TNBC who had received at least 2 prior treatments for metastatic disease. In the study population, the median number of prior systemic therapies in the metastatic setting was 3, and the majority of patients received prior taxanes (98%) and anthracyclines (86%) in the neoadjuvant or metastatic setting. The median age of study patients was 55 years (range 31-80); 99% were female, and 76% were Caucasian.31Brain metastases were present in 23% of patients, and visceral metastases were present in 77% of patients; these included metastases in the lung/pleura (57%), the liver (42%), and other visceral organs (adrenal glands, pancreas, and kidney; 7%).31
Patients received sacituzumab govitecan-hziy 10 mg/kg administered intravenously on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles. Treatment continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary efficacy end point was objective response rate (ORR) assessed according to RECIST 1.1 tumor criteria. The secondary efficacy end points included time to response, duration of response, clinical benefit rate (defined as a complete or partial response or stable disease for 6 months), progression-free survival (PFS), and OS.31
After a median follow-up duration of 9.7 months, an objective response occurred in 36 of 108 patients (ORR, 33.3%; 95% CI, 24.6%-43.1%), including a complete response in 3 patients.31 The median time to response was 2 months (range 1.6-13.5). The median response duration was 7.7 months (95% CI, 4.9-10.8), with 55.6% of patients responding at 6 months and 16.7% of patients still responding at 12 months.31,34 An independent central review of the data found a similar ORR and median response duration (34.3% and 9.1 months, respectively).31 The clinical benefit rate, including stable disease for at least 6 months, was 45.4%. Median PFS was 5.5 months; the estimated probability of PFS at 6 and 12 months was 41.9% and 15.1%, respectively. Median OS was 13 months (95% CI, 11.2-13.7); the estimated probability of survival at 6 and 12 months was 78.5% and 51.3%, respectively.31
The most common AEs of any grade were nausea (67%), neutropenia (64%), diarrhea (62%, predominantly grade 1), and fatigue (55%). Of grade 3 or 4 AEs, the most common were neutropenia, decreased white cell count, and anemia (occurring in 42%, 11%, and 11% of patients, respectively).31 Serious AEs occurred in 32% of patients, with the most common being febrile neutropenia (7%), vomiting (6%), nausea (4%), diarrhea (3%), and dyspnea (3%). Occurrence of AEs led to treatment interruption in 44% of patients, dose reductions in 34%, and discontinuation of treatment in 3%.31,34
IM-T-IMMU-132-01 Trial HR+/HER2- Subpopulation Analysis
Treatment with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy showed encouraging results in a prespecified subpopulation of patients with histologically confirmed HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer from the IM-T-IMMU-132-01 trial.32
A total of 54 patients with histologically confirmed HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer were enrolled. Eligible patients had received at least 1 line of hormone-based therapy and at least 1 prior chemotherapy in the metastatic setting. The median age of enrollees was 54 years (range, 33-79); aside from required prior hormone-based therapy, previous chemotherapies included a taxane (85%), an anthracycline (67%), capecitabine (65%), a CDK4/6 inhibitor (61%), an mTOR inhibitor (44%), and an immune checkpoint inhibitor (1.9%). After a washout period of at least 2 weeks since prior treatment, sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was dosed at 10 mg/kg via intravenous infusion on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles.32
The primary efficacy end point was ORR. Of the 54 patients enrolled, 17 patients achieved partial responses during a median follow-up duration of 11.5 months (ORR, 31.5%; 95% CI, 19.5%-45.6%). In the key secondary outcomes, patients experienced a median PFS of 5.5 months (95% CI, 3.6-7.6) and a median OS of 12.0 months (95% CI, 9.0-18.2). The median time to response was 2.1 months (95% CI, 1.4-7.8), and median duration of response was 8.7 months (95% CI, 3.7-12.7). Of the 17 responders, 4 achieved a response lasting more than 12 months (24%). The clinical benefit rate was 44.4% (95% CI, 30.9%-58.6%), with 7 patients showing stable disease for at least 6 months.32
Safety analyses showed a manageable AE profile for sacituzumab govitecan-hziy. There were no reports of cardiac toxicity or severe peripheral neuropathy. The most common grade 3 or higher treatment-related AE was neutropenia, which occurred in 50% of patients. The incidence of diarrhea was 46% and was mild overall. Grade 3 diarrhea was reported in 4 patients, with no reports of grade 4.32 Serious AEs occurred in 2 patients, who experienced febrile neutropenia and 1 case each of neutropenia, viral pneumonia, sepsis, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dehydration, and acute respiratory failure.32
ESMO 2020 Data: ASCENTTrial in Metastatic TNBC (NCT02574455)
Final results of the international, multicenter, open-label ASCENT trial (NCT02574455) were presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Virtual Congress 2020. ASCENT was the first phase 3 study of an ADC to show improvement in PFS and OS compared with standard-of-care chemotherapy in patients with previously treated metastatic TNBC.35,36
A total of 529 patients with metastatic TNBC were randomized 1:1 to receive either sacituzumab govitecan-hziy or physicians choice of single-agent chemotherapy (capecitabine, eribulin, vinorelbine, or gemcitabine). The dose of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy was 10 mg/kg intravenously on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles. All patients had histologically or cytologically confirmed TNBC refractory to or relapsed after at least 2 prior chemotherapies including a taxane. The median age of the study population was 54 years, and the median number of prior chemotherapies received was 4.
In the primary end point, sacituzumab govitecan-hziy significantly improved median PFS (hazard ratio, 0.41; P< .0001) compared with chemotherapy. The sacituzumab govitecan-hziy treatment group achieved a median PFS of 5.6 months compared with 1.7 months in the chemotherapy treatment group. Compared with chemotherapy, sacituzumab govitecan-hziy treatment also significantly improved key secondary end points of OS (12.1 vs 6.7 months; hazard ratio, 0.48; P < .0001) and ORR (35% vs 5%; P < .0001).35,36
The most common treatment-related grade 3 or higher AEs with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy compared with chemotherapy were neutropenia (51% vs 33%, respectively), diarrhea (10.5% vs < 1.0%), anemia (8% vs 5%), and febrile neutropenia (6% vs 2%). No treatment-related deaths were reported, and no cases of neuropathy or interstitial lung disease greater than grade 3 occurred with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy.35
ESMO 2020 Data: Sacituzumab Govitecan-hziy in Combination with Talazoparib for Patients with Metastatic TNBC (NCT04039230)
At the ESMO Virtual Congress 2020, investigators presented the trial design, objectives, and status of a phase 1/2, open-label study that will investigate the efficacy and safety of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy in combination with the PARP inhibitor talazoparib for patients with metastatic TNBC.37 PARP is involved in repairing damaged DNA and is required for clearance of Trop-2 cleavage complexes; thus, PARP inhibitors may be complementary therapeutic partners with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy.37, 38
This study will include a dose escalation in phase 1b followed by a dose expansion in phase 2. Patients will receive sacituzumab govitecan-hziy on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles and talazoparib daily on days 15 to 21 of each cycle.38 The primary objective of phase 1b is to assess the dose-limiting toxicity rate and maximum tolerated dose of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy when given in combination with talazoparib. From these data, investigators will determine the recommended phase 2 dose. During phase 2, investigators will assess the ORR, PFS, OS, and clinical benefit rate. As of August 30, 2020, the trial was undergoing active recruitment, and a total of 20 patients were enrolled.37, 38
ESMO 2020 Data: Sacituzumab Govitecan-hziy for Breast Cancer Brain Metastases (NCT03995706)
SN-38, the cytotoxic payload delivered by sacituzumab govitecan-hziy, crosses the blood-brain barrier and is often included in central nervous system (CNS) cancer regimens.39 Investigators hypothesized that sacituzumab govitecan-hziy would yield therapeutically relevant SN-38 concentrations within the CNS of patients under-going craniotomy for breast cancer brain metastases or recurrent glioblastoma.39,40
In this single-center, nonrandomized, phase 0 study (NCT03995706), patients receive a single 10-mg/kg intravenous dose of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy the day prior to craniotomy and then resume therapy (on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles) after recovery. To date, 14 patients have been treated. For patients with recurrent glioblastoma (n = 7), the mean SN-38 concentration was 420 nM; for patients with breast cancer brain metastases (n = 7), the mean SN-38 concentration was 626 nM. Among those patients with residual measurable disease, 2 partial intracranial responses have been observed in each group after 12 weeks of treatment (ORR, 28% and 50% for glioblastoma and breast cancer brain metastases, respectively). As of September 2020, recruitment for this trial was ongoing.39,40
The metastatic urothelial cancer cohort of the IM-T-IMMU-132-01 trial reported encouraging activity with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy monotherapy (ORR, 31%; median PFS, 7.3 months; and median OS, 18.9 months).41Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy has FDA fast track desig-nation for metastatic urothelial cancer and is currently under further investigation in the phase 2 TROPHY U-01 trial (NCT03547973) and the upcoming phase 3 TROPiCS-04 trial (NCT04527991).42-45
Final data for cohort 1 and the trial design for cohort 3 were presented at the ESMO Virtual Congress 2020 for the pivotal phase 2, open-label, multicohort TROPHY U-01trial. The TROPHY U-01trial is investigating the safety and efficacy of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy in patients with heavily pretreated metastatic urothelial cancer across several cohorts. The study population across the TROPHY U-01 trial includes patients with disease progression despite treatment with platinum (PLT)-based chemotherapy, checkpoint inhibitors, or both. For all cohorts, the primary efficacy end point is ORR, and key secondary end points include PFS, OS, duration of response, and safety analyses.44,45
Cohort 1
Cohort 1 included a total of 113 patients who were treated with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy. The study population included patients who experienced disease progression after both PLT-based chemotherapy and checkpoint inhibitor therapy.44 Overall, patients in cohort 1 were previously treated with a median of 3 therapies and were a median of 66 years of age. In the results presented at ESMO 2020, a total of 31 patients had achieved an objective response (ORR, 27%; 95% CI, 19%-37%), of which 6 were complete responses and 25 were partial responses. The median duration of response was 5.9 months (95% CI, 4.7-8.6); median PFS and OS were 5.4 months (95% CI, 3.5-6.9) and 10.5 months (95% CI, 8.2-12.3), respectively. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy demonstrated manageable toxicity. Key grade 3 or higher AEs were neutropenia (35%), anemia (14%), febrile neutropenia (10%), and diarrhea (10%).44
Cohort 3
As of March 2020, cohort 3 had started enrollment and is ongoing. The study plans to enroll a total of 61 patients with metastatic urothelial cancer who are nave to checkpoint inhibitor agents and have experienced disease progression or recurrence after PLT-based chemotherapy.45 As checkpoint inhibitors are the stan-dard-of-care therapy for patients who have failed on PLT-based chemotherapy, this study will investigate combination therapy with sacituzumab govitecan-hziy and the checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab. Exclusion criteria include active autoimmune disease or a history of interstitial lung disease, given the coadministration of pembrolizumab. A 10-patient lead-in cohort will determine standard the recommended phase 2 dose of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy (given on days 1 and 8 of 21-day cycles), to be given along with pembrolizumab 200 mg on day 1 of each cycle. The primary end point of ORR and secondary end points of PFS, OS, clinical benefit rate, duration of response, and safety will be assessed.45
The phase 3, global, open-label TROPiCS-04trial aims to enroll 482 patients to investigate the efficacy and safety of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy in patients with metastatic or locally advanced unresectable urothelial cancer who have progressed despite prior therapy with PLT-based chemotherapy and a PD-1 or PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor. Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy will be compared with physicians choice of chemotherapy (paclitaxel, docetaxel, or vinflunine). The primary outcome measure will be OS; secondary outcomes will include PFS, ORR, safety, and quality of life. As of August 2020, the trial was not yet recruiting patients.43
Evaluation of novel and existing ADCs has revealed that success is not based on the use of any one particular cytotoxic compound or conjugate platform. Factors such as the consistency and level of target-antigen expression, tumor progression, and specific properties of the cancer and stage of disease also play important roles.46 Several additional Trop-2targeted ADCs are currently being investigated in solid tumors (Table).33,36,37,40,42,43,47-51
DS-1062a is a Trop-2directed ADC that contains the cytotoxic compound DXd, a derivative of exatecan that acts as a DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor.52 It is currently being investigated for the treatment of advanced NSCLC in an ongoing phase 1, multicenter, open-label study (NC T 03 401385).48
The study involves a dose-escalation phase and a dose-expansion phase. Dose-limiting toxicity, maximum tolerated dose, and AEs will be explored in both phases.47 Eligible patients have experienced disease progression or recurrence despite previous treatments, have measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 criteria, and are able to provide a sufficient tumor tissue sample for Trop-2 measurement. Patients with multiple primary malignancies or untreated brain metastases are ineligible for the study.48
As of November 2018, a total of 22 patients had been treated with 1 of 3 escalating doses of DS-1062a. Nearly 82% of patients experienced at least 1 treatment-emergent AE, with fatigue being the most common complaint. Fatigue was the only reported grade 3 or higher AE and was reported by 1 patient. Of 18 tumor-evaluable patients, 1 showed a partial response and 8 showed stable disease. Maximum-tolerated dose has not been achieved, and investigators will continue to monitor for safety and disease progression.47, 48
RN927C
RN927C, also known as PF-06664178, is an ADC composed of a Trop-2directed antibody conjugated with the cytotoxic microtubule inhibitor PF-06380101. Release of PF-06380101 leads to mitotic arrest, apoptosis, and cell death.3 Preclinical studies demonstrated the ability of RN927C to induce cell death among various tumor cell lines, including those from the skin, lung, head and neck, breast, ovary, and colon.3
RN927C was investigated in a phase 1, open-label, nonrandomized dose-escalation study (NCT02122146)of patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that were unresponsive to current therapies or for whom no standard therapy was available. The primary objective of the study was to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose. Secondary outcomes included safety and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity. A total of 31 patients were enrolled and received treatment with escalating doses of RN927C. Stable disease was noted in 11 patients (39%), but no partial or complete responses were seen. Doses of 3.6 mg/kg, 4.2 mg/kg, and 4.8 mg/kg were considered intolerable, primarily because of skin reactions and development of neutropenia. The next-lower dose of 2.4 mg/kg was well tolerated, but the study was terminated early because of minimal anti-tumor activity and excessive toxicities.50
BAT8003
BAT8003 is an ADC composed of a Trop-2directed antibody conjugated to a potent cytotoxic maytansine derivative. The ADC has been optimized to facilitate site-specific conjugation, which allows for a more controllable drug-antibody ratio. In addition, a fucosylation of the Fc region of the antibody enhances its antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity effect. In preclinical xenograft and primate models, BAT8003 demonstrated strong inhibition of tumor growth at doses of 5 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg, with a highest nonseverely toxic dose of 20 mg/kg given once every 3 weeks.51, 53
Given the promising preclinical data, a phase 1 dose-escalation study (NCT03884517) is currently investigating the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of BAT8003 in patients with advanced epithelial cancer who are either ineligible for standard therapy or have disease refractory to standard therapy.Eligible patients will receive escalating doses of BAT8003 (0.2-10.0 mg/kg) on day 1 of each 21-day cycle. The study will be divided into 3 periods: (1) the first 21-day cycle, which will examine the safety of a single BAT8003 administration, observe for dose-limiting toxicities, and establish preliminary pharmacokinetic parameters; (2) cycles 2 through 8, which will examine safety, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of escalating doses of BAT8003; and (3) an expansion period, which could include an additional 10 to 30 cases to further assess safety and efficacy once a safe and effective dose has been established. As of the last update on March 21, 2019, the trial was actively recruiting patients.51
Trop-2 has established itself as a clinically meaningful biomarker among several types of solid malignancies. Its ability to promote self-renewal, proliferation, and cell invasion makes it an ideal candidate for targeted anti-tumor therapies, including ADCs.
Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy is the first Trop-2directed ADC to receive FDA approval for the treatment of metastatic TNBC. In the pivotal IM-T-IMMU-132-01 trial, sacituzumab govitecan-hziy showed encouraging results in patients with multiple difficult-to-treat solid tumor types, including TNBC, HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer, and metastatic urothelial cancer.31,32,41 Sacituzumab govitecan-hziy and other Trop-2directed ADCs represent a novel strategy to improve outcomes among these populations of patients with few therapeutic options. Data from additional trials of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy were presented at the ESMO Virtual Congress 2020. In the ASCENT trial, sacituzumab govitecan improved response rates and survival outcomes in patients with metastatic TNBC compared with standard-of-care therapy.35 Data from a cohort of patients with metastatic urothelial cancer in the TROPHY U-01 trial indicated positive survival impacts with manageable toxicity.44 Additional trials of sacituzumab-govitecan-hziy (as monotherapy or in combination with PARP inhibitors or checkpoint inhibitors) are under way in patients with metastatic TNBC, breast cancer brain metastases, and metastatic or locally advanced urothelial cancer.37,40,43,45 Other Trop-2directed ADCs are under investigation in NSCLC and advanced epithelial cancers.47, 51

Role of Trop-2 as an Actionable Biomarker in Solid Tumors - OncLive
The Amniotic Fluid Stem Cell Therapy market to invigorate from 2018 to 2026 – TechnoWeekly
By daniellenierenberg
Stem cells are biological cells which have the ability to distinguish into specialized cells, which are capable of cell division through mitosis. Amniotic fluid stem cells are a collective mixture of stem cells obtained from amniotic tissues and fluid. Amniotic fluid is clear, slightly yellowish liquid which surrounds the fetus during pregnancy and is discarded as medical waste during caesarean section deliveries. Amniotic fluid is a source of valuable biological material which includes stem cells which can be potentially used in cell therapy and regenerative therapies. Amniotic fluid stem cells can be developed into a different type of tissues such as cartilage, skin, cardiac nerves, bone, and muscles. Amniotic fluid stem cells are able to find the damaged joint caused by rheumatoid arthritis and differentiate tissues which are damaged.

Medical conditions where no drug is able to lessen the symptoms and begin the healing process are the major target for amniotic fluid stem cell therapy. Amniotic fluid stem cells therapy is a solution to those patients who do not want to undergo surgery. Amniotic fluid has a high concentration of stem cells, cytokines, proteins and other important components. Amniotic fluid stem cell therapy is safe and effective treatment which contain growth factor helps to stimulate tissue growth, naturally reduce inflammation. Amniotic fluid also contains hyaluronic acid which acts as a lubricant and promotes cartilage growth.
With increasing technological advancement in the healthcare, amniotic fluid stem cell therapy has more advantage over the other therapy. Amniotic fluid stem cell therapy eliminates the chances of surgery and organs are regenerated, without causing any damage. These are some of the factors driving the growth of amniotic fluid stem cell therapy market over the forecast period.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Induction therapy is recommended before autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for AL amyloidosis patients with high disease burden [bone marrow plasma cells (BMPCs) > 10%], but the role of induction therapy before ASCT in patients with low disease burden (BMPCs 10%) is still unknown.
METHODS: A total of 227 patients with AL amyloidosis were included in this study. Among 227 patients, 124 patients received bortezomib-based induction prior to ASCT and were defined as group A, 35 patients received other chemotherapeutic induction and were defined as group B, and the other 68 patients without induction were defined as group C. We compared the differences of efficacy and prognosis between the three groups.
RESULTS: The haematological overall response rates (ORR) of groups A, B and C were 91%, 67% and 75%, respectively. The complete response rates (CR) of groups A, B and C were 50%, 25% and 20%, respectively. Both the ORR and CR rates of group A were significantly higher than those of groups B and C. The renal response rates of groups A, B and C were 64%, 46% and 47%, respectively. The cardiac response rates of groups A, B and C were 74%, 45% and 40%, respectively. The renal and cardiac responses rates of group A were also significantly higher than those of the other two groups. After a median follow-up of 44 months, the median OS was not reached. The 5-year estimated overall survival (OS) rates of groups A, B and C were 81%, 57% and 67%, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 83 months for all patients. The 5-year estimated PFS rates of groups A, B and C were 61%, 38% and 49%, respectively. Both the OS and PFS of group A were higher than those of both group B and group C. On multivariate analysis, baseline dFLC > 50 mg/L was associated with worse survival, but induction with bortezomib was associated with better survival.
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrated that low disease burden AL patients who are eligible for ASCT may benefit from bortezomib-based induction therapy.
