CD7 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T cell) therapy is an emerging method for treating hematological malignancies, and is another breakthrough in CAR-T cell therapy.
This study summarizes the currently published clinical research results on CD7 CAR-T cells and evaluates the safety and effectiveness of CD7 CAR-T cell therapy.
Among the 13 studies included in this study, a total of 200 patients received CD7 CAR-T cell therapy, including 88 patients who received autologous CAR-T cells, 112 patients who received donor derived CAR-T cells. 87% (80% -94%, =29.65%) of patients achieved complete remission. The incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was 94% (88% -98%, =32.71%, p=0.12), while the incidence of severe CRS (grade ≥ 3) was 12% (5% -20%, =41.04%, p=0.06). As for the incidence of immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), it is 4% (1% -7%, =0, p=0.72). Through analysis of the key clinical issues, we found that consolidation allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) after CAR-T cell therapy can significantly improve survival and avoid recurrence. Therefore, we believe that the consolidation allo-HSCT after CD7 CAR-T cell therapy should be advocated. And patients who received CD7 CAR-T cell therapy without gene editing had significantly longer overall survival than those who received CD7 CAR-T cell therapy with gene editing. This suggests that gene edited CD7 CAR-T cells may pose some potential risks that limit the long-term survival of patients.
Our study confirms the efficacy and safety of CD7 CAR-T cells and provides research directions for the subsequent treatment.

CD7嵌合抗原受体T细胞(CAR-T细胞)疗法是一种治疗血液系统恶性肿瘤的新兴方法,是CAR-T细胞疗法的又一突破。
本研究总结了目前已发表的关于CD7 CAR-T细胞的临床研究结果,并评估了CD7 CAR-T细胞疗法的安全性和有效性。
本研究纳入的13项研究中,共有200例患者接受了CD7 CAR-T细胞疗法,其中88例接受了自体CAR-T细胞,112例接受了供体来源的CAR-T细胞。87%(80%-94%, =29.65%)的患者实现了完全缓解。细胞因子释放综合征(CRS)的发生率为94%(88%-98%, =32.71%,p=0.12),而严重CRS(≥3级)的发生率为12%(5%-20%, =41.04%,p=0.06)。至于免疫效应细胞相关神经毒性综合征(ICANS)的发生率,为4%(1%-7%, =0,p=0.72)。通过对关键临床问题的分析,我们发现CAR-T细胞疗法后进行巩固性异基因造血干细胞移植(allo-HSCT)可显著提高生存率并避免复发。因此,我们认为应提倡CD7 CAR-T细胞疗法后进行巩固性allo-HSCT。并且未接受基因编辑的CD7 CAR-T细胞疗法患者的总生存期明显长于接受基因编辑的CD7 CAR-T细胞疗法患者。这表明基因编辑的CD7 CAR-T细胞可能存在一些潜在风险,限制了患者的长期生存。
我们的研究证实了CD7 CAR-T细胞的疗效和安全性,并为后续治疗提供了研究方向。
