Compositions and methods for the induction of cell death, for example, cancer cell death. Combinations of compounds and related methods of use are disclosed, including the use of compounds in therapy for the treatment of cancer and selective induction of apoptosis in cells. The disclosed drug combinations can have lower neurotoxicity effects than other cancer therapies that achieve the same or similar therapeutic effect.

Procaspase combination therapy for glioblastoma

Provided herein are methods, compositions and articles of manufacture for use in connection with cell therapy involving the administration of one or more doses of a therapeutic T cell composition. The cells of the T cell composition express recombinant receptors such as chimeric receptors, e.g. chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) or other transgenic receptors such as T cell receptors (TCRs). Features of the provided embodiments, including the numbers of cells or units of cells administered and/or the potency of administered cells, provide various advantages, such as lower risk of toxicity in subjects administered the T cell compositions.

Determining toxicity risk in CAR T-cell therapy

Provided are adoptive cell therapy methods involving the administration of doses of cells for treating disease and conditions, including certain B cell malignancies. The cells generally express recombinant receptors such as chimeric antigen receptors (CARs). In some embodiments, the methods are for treating subjects with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). In some embodiments, the methods are for treating subjects with relapsed or refractory NHL. Also provided are articles of manufacture and prophylactic treatments in connection with adoptive therapy methods.

Articles of manufacture and methods for treatment using adoptive cell therapy

The invention provides compositions and methods for the induction of cell death, for example, cancer cell death. Combinations of compounds and related methods of use are disclosed, including the use of compounds in therapy for the treatment of cancer and selective induction of apoptosis in cells. The disclosed drug combinations can have lower neurotoxicity effects than other compounds and combinations of compounds.

Procaspase 3 activation by combination therapy

Provided are methods, kits and compositions related to toxicity associated with administration of cell therapy for the treatment of diseases or conditions, e.g., cancer, including methods for use in predicting and treating a toxicity. In some embodiments, the toxicity is a neurotoxicity or cytokine release syndrome (CRS), such as a severe neurotoxicity or a severe CRS. The methods generally involve detecting a parameter of a biomarker or individually a parameter of each biomarker in a panel of biomarkers, such as a concentration, amount or activity, and comparing the detected parameter to a reference value for the parameter to determine if the subject is at risk for developing the toxicity, such as neurotoxicity or CRS or severe neurotoxicity or severe CRS. In some embodiments, the methods further involve administering an agent or therapy for treating, ameliorating, preventing, delaying and/or attenuating the development of the toxicity, such as neurotoxicity or CRS, such as severe neurotoxicity or severe CRS.

Methods and compositions related to toxicity associated with cell therapy

Provided are methods for administering multiple doses of cells, such as T cells, to subjects for cell therapy. Also provided are compositions and articles of manufacture for use in the methods. The cells generally express recombinant receptors such as chimeric receptors, e.g., chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) or other transgenic receptors such as T cell receptors (TCRs). The methods generally involve administering a first and at least one consecutive dose of the cells. Timing of the doses relative to one another, and/or size of the doses, in some embodiments provide various advantages such as lower or reduced toxicity and improved efficacy, for example, due to increased exposure of the subject to the administered cells. In some embodiments, the first dose is a relatively low dose, such as one that reduces tumor or disease burden, thereby improving the efficacy of consecutive or subsequent doses, and the consecutive dose is a consolidating dose.

Methods and compositions for dosing in adoptive cell therapy

Provided are methods for multiple administrations of cells for adoptive cell therapy, and for administering cells to subjects having received prior administrations, and compositions and articles of manufacture for use in the methods. The cells generally express recombinant molecules such as recombinant receptors, e.g., chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) and/or other transgenic receptors. The methods can involve administering cells expressing a first or prior receptor(s) and cells expressing a second or subsequent receptor(s), the second or subsequent receptor(s) being distinct from the first, and which generally do not express the first receptor, and/or administering the cells expressing the second receptor to a subject having received the first administration. The methods can provide various advantages, such as improved efficacy in the context an immune response in the subject against the first or prior receptor and/or in the context of antigen loss, downregulation, or modification, following a first or prior administration.

Methods and compositions for adoptive cell therapy

The invention provides compositions and methods for the induction of cell death, for example, cancer cell death. Combinations of compounds and related methods the use are disclosed, including the use of compounds in therapy for the treatment of cancer and selective induction of apoptosis in cells. The disclosed drug combinations can have lower neurotoxicity effects than other compounds and combinations of compounds.
