Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare and aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that affects the brain, eyes, cerebrospinal fluid, or spinal cord without systemic involvement. The outcome of patients with PCNSL is worse compared to patients with systemic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Given potential mortality associated with severe immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), patients with PCNSL have been excluded from most clinical trials involving chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy initially. Here, we report for the first time to apply decitabine-primed tandem CD19/CD22 dual-targeted CAR-T therapy with programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors maintenance in one patient with multiline-resistant refractory PCNSL and the patient has maintained complete remission (CR) for a 35-month follow-up period. This case represents the first successful treatment of multiline resistant refractory PCNSL with long-term CR and without inducing ICANS under tandem CD19/CD22 bispecific CAR-T therapy followed by maintenance therapy with PD-1 and BTK inhibitors. This study shows tremendous potential in the treatment of PCNSL and offers a look toward ongoing clinical studies.
原发性中枢神经系统淋巴瘤(PCNSL)是一种罕见且侵袭性的非霍奇金淋巴瘤,影响大脑、眼睛、脑脊液或脊髓而无全身受累。与全身弥漫性大 B 细胞淋巴瘤患者相比,PCNSL 患者的预后更差。鉴于严重免疫效应细胞相关神经毒性综合征(ICANS)相关的潜在死亡率,最初大多数涉及嵌合抗原受体 T 细胞(CAR-T)治疗的临床试验都排除了 PCNSL 患者。在这里,我们首次报告了一例多线耐药难治性 PCNSL 患者应用去甲基化药物-预处理的串联 CD19/CD22 双靶点 CAR-T 治疗,并联合程序性细胞死亡蛋白 1(PD-1)和布鲁顿酪氨酸激酶(BTK)抑制剂维持治疗。该患者在 35 个月的随访期内保持完全缓解(CR)。该病例代表了首例多线耐药难治性 PCNSL 在串联 CD19/CD22 双特异性 CAR-T 治疗后联合 PD-1 和 BTK 抑制剂维持治疗下,无 ICANS 诱导且长期 CR 的成功治疗。该研究为 PCNSL 的治疗提供了巨大的潜力,并为正在进行的临床研究提供了参考。
