The invention provides methods of increasing the efficacy of a T cell therapy in a patient in need thereof. The invention includes a method of conditioning a patient prior to a T cell therapy, wherein the conditioning involves administering a combination of cyclophosphamide and fludarabine.

Methods of conditioning patients for T cell therapy

The disclosure provides methods of treating a malignancy comprising administering an effective dose of a chimeric antigen receptor genetically modified T cell immunotherapy and methods for manufacturing such immunotherapy. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to methods of determining objective response of a patient to a T cell immunotherapy based on the levels of attributes prior to and after administration of the immunotherapy to the patient.

Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy

The disclosure provides methods of treating a malignancy comprising administering an effective dose of a chimeric receptor (e.g., CAR or TCR) genetically modified T cell immunotherapy. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to methods of characterizing the pre-infusion tumor microenvironment and determining an effective dose of a T cell immunotherapy.

Chimeric receptor T cell treatment using characteristics of the tumor microenvironment

The invention provides methods of increasing the efficacy of a T cell therapy in a patient in need thereof. The invention includes methods of identifying a patient who would respond well to a T cell therapy or conditioning a patient prior to a T cell therapy so that the patient responds well to a T cell therapy. The conditioning involves administering one or more preconditioning agents prior to a T cell therapy and identifying biomarker cytokines prior to administering a T cell therapy.

Diagnostic methods for T cell therapy

The disclosure provides methods of treating a malignancy comprising administering an effective dose of a chimeric receptor (e.g., CAR or TCR) genetically modified T cell immunotherapy. Some aspects of the disclosure relate to methods of determining an effective dose of a T cell immunotherapy comprising polyfunctional T cells prior to administration to the patient.
