Multiple myeloma is a prevalent and incurable disease, despite the development of new and effective drugs. The recent development of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)T cells has shown impressive results in the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory hematologic B-cell malignancies. In recent years, B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) has appeared as a promising antigen to target using a variety of immunotherapy treatments, including CART cells, for patients with multiple myeloma. To this end, we generated clinical-grade murine CART cells directed against BCMA, named ARI2m cells. Having demonstrated its efficacy, and in an attempt to avoid the immune rejection of CART cells by the patient, the single chain variable fragment was humanized, creating ARI2h cells. ARI2h cells showed comparable in vitro and in vivo efficacy to that of ARI2m cells, and superiority in cases of high tumor burden disease. In terms of inflammatory response, ARI2h cells produced less tumor necrosis factor-αand were associated with a milder in vivo toxicity profile. Large-scale expansion of both ARI2m and ARI2h cells was efficiently conducted following Good Manufacturing Practice guidelines, obtaining the target CART-cell dose required for treatment of multiple myeloma patients. Moreover, we demonstrated that soluble BCMA and BCMA released in vesicles both affect CAR-BCMA activity. In summary, this study sets the bases for the implementation of a clinical trial (EudraCT code: 2019-001472-11) to study the efficacy of ARI2h-cell treatment for patients with multiple myeloma.
