We have treated 33 patients: 13 with HL, 17 with aggressive NHL (diffuse large B-cell, mantle cell, or T cell lymphomas) and 3 with indolent NHLs (FL and marginal zone lymphoma). Patients received 0.5-2x107 multiTAA-T cells/m2. Of 18 patients who were infused as adjuvant therapy all but 2 remain in remission (range 3-42 months post-infusion). Fifteen patients have received multiTAA-specific T cells to treat active disease, all of whom had failed a median of 4 lines of prior therapy. Of these, 5 had transient disease stabilization followed by disease progression, 4 have ongoing stable disease, 3-18 months post-multiTAA-specific T cells while the remaining 6 (3 with HL and 3 with DLBCL) have all had complete and durable responses ( 4 to 41 months), as assessed by PET imaging. These clinical responses correlated with the detection of tumor-reactive T cells in patient peripheral blood post-infusion directed against both targeted antigens as well as non-targeted TAAs including MAGEA2B and MAGE C1, indicating induction of antigen/epitope spreading. Notably, no patient, including the complete responders, had infusion-related systemic- or neuro-toxicity. Thus, infusion of autologous multiTAA-targeted T cells directed to PRAME, SSX2, MAGEA4, NY-ESO-1 and Survivin has been safe and provided durable clinical benefit to patients with lymphomas.
