Comprehensive Serum Proteome Profiling of Cytokine Release Syndrome and Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome Patients with B-Cell ALL Receiving CAR T19.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To study the biology and identify markers of severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) in children after chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T) treatment.

Experimental design

We used comprehensive proteomic profiling to measure over 1,400 serum proteins at multiple serial timepoints in a cohort of patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with the CD19-targeted CAR T CTL019 on two clinical trials.

Results

We identified fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) and mast cell immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (MILR1) as preinfusion predictive biomarkers of severe CRS. We demonstrated that CRS is an IFNγ-driven process with a protein signature overlapping with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosi
