Phase I First-in-Class Trial of MCARH109, a G Protein Coupled Receptor Class C Group 5 Member D (GPRC5D) Targeted CAR T Cell Therapy in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Background: BCMA targeted CAR T cell therapy has shown promising results in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), but relapses are common. Additional treatment options with novel therapeutic targets or mechanisms of action are needed. Here we report on the safety and efficacy of MCARH109, the first-in-class G Protein Coupled Receptor Class C Group 5 Member D (GPRC5D) targeted CAR T cell therapy (Smith EL et al. Sci. Trans Med 2019) in RRMM including patients who relapsed post BCMA targeted CAR T cell therapy.
