Safety evaluation of the mouse TCRα - transduced T cell product in preclinical models in vivo and in vitro

Sumario:Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) based on TCR- or CAR-T cells has become an efficient immunotherapeutic approach for the treatment of various diseases, including cancer. Previously, we developed a novel strategy for generating therapeutic T cell products based on chain-centric TCRs, in which either α- or β-chain dominates in cognate antigen recognition. To assess the suitability of our experimental approach for the clinical application and predict its possible adverse effects, in studies here, we evaluated the safety of the experimental TCRα-modified T cell product in mouse preclinical models. Our data showed no tumorigenic or mutagenic activity in vitro of TCRα-transduced T cells, indicating no genotoxicity of viral vectors used for the generation of the experimental T cell product. Adoptive transfer of TCRα-engineered T cells in a wide dose range didn`t disturb the host homeostasis and exhibited no acute toxicity or immunotoxicity in vivo. Based on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics analysis here, modified T cells rapidly penetrated and distributed in many viscera after infusion. Histological evaluations revealed no pathological changes in organs caused by T cells accumulation, indicating the absence of non-specific off-target activity or cross-reactivity of the therapeutic TCRα. Studies here provide valuable information on the potential safety of TCRα-T cell based ACT that could be extrapolated to possible effects in a human host.
