EPCT-14. GD2 CAR T-CELLS MEDIATE CLINICAL ACTIVITY AND MANAGEABLE TOXICITY IN CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS WITH H3K27M-MUTATED DIPG AND SPINAL CORD DMG

ABSTRACT: Abstract

Background

We previously discovered high expression of the disialoganglioside GD2 on H3K27M+ gliomas and demonstrated preclinical efficacy of intravenous (IV) GD2-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells in preclinical models of H3K27M-mutated diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and diffuse midline gliomas (DMGs). We are now conducting a Phase I clinical trial (NCT04196413) of autologous GD2-targeting CAR T-cells for H3K27M+ DIPG and spinal cord DMG. Here we present the results of subjects treated at dose level 1 (DL1; 1 million GD2-CAR T-cells/kg IV).

Methods

Four patients (3 DIPG, 1 spinal DMG; ages 4–25; 1M/3F) were enrolled at DL1. Three subjects with H3K27M+ DIPG received 1e6 GD2-CAR T-cells/kg IV on study. One patient with spinal DMG enrolled bu
