Orvacabtagene Autoleucel (Orva-Cel; Jcarh125): A Fully Human Bcma-Targeted Second-Generation Car T Cell Product Characterized By A Predominant Central Memory Phenotype With High In Vitro And In Vivo Proliferative Potential And Sustained In Vivo Persistence
BLOOD(2020)
Abstract
Background: Orva-cel is an investigational B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA)-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell product genetically modified with a lentiviral vector to express a CAR construct with a unique fully human single-chain variable fragment, optimized spacer, and 4-1BB costimulatory and CD3ζ activation domains. Orva-cel is currently being evaluated for efficacy and safety in the ongoing phase 1/2 EVOLVE study (NCT03430011) in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma. We characterized orva-cel drug products, manufactured using the process in place for the phase 2 portion of the study and intended for commercial manufacturing, for CAR+ T cell purity, phenotype, and function.
