Afamitresgene Autoleucel: First Approval. (PubMed, Mol Diagn Ther)
In August 2024, afamitresgene autoleucel was approved in the USA under accelerated approval for the treatment of adults with unresectable or metastatic synovial sarcoma who have received prior chemotherapy, are HLA-A*02:01P, -A*02:02P, -A*02:03P or -A*02:06P positive and whose tumour expresses the MAGE-A4 antigen as determined by FDA-approved or cleared companion diagnostic devices. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of afamitresgene autoleucel leading to this first approval for the treatment of advanced synovial sarcoma.

Afamitresgene autoleucel for advanced synovial sarcoma and myxoid round cell liposarcoma (SPEARHEAD-1): an international, open-label, phase 2 trial. (PubMed, Lancet)
Afami-cel treatment resulted in durable responses in heavily pre-treated patients with HLA-A*02 and MAGE-A4-expressing synovial sarcoma. This study shows that T-cell receptor therapy can be used to effectively target solid tumours and provides rationale to expand this approach to other solid malignancies.

Modulation of Single-Cell Gene Expression and Cell Function in Evolving Manufacturing Processes for Clinical Trials with Enhanced-Affinity T-Cell Receptor T-Cell Therapy Targeting the MAGE-A4 Antigen in Solid Tumors (ASGCT 2023)
Introduction: Affinity-enhanced T-cell receptor (TCR) T-cell therapies targeting the intracellular cancer testis antigen MAGE-A4 have shown encouraging results in adults with advanced solid cancers.1,2 Here we explore how TCR T-cell therapy manufacturing process evolution may modulate the function of ADP-A2M4CD8, the next generation counterpart of afamitresgene autoleucel (afami-cel; formerly ADP-A2M4), using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and in vitro functional assessment. Whole-transcriptome, single-cell investigation of the cellular subsets produced during manufacturing of afami-cel and ADP-A2M4CD8 indicate that infusion of cells with a less cytotoxic GEP does not prevent broad anti-tumor efficacy and may correspond with beneficial characteristics. 1.

Increasing the Awareness of Nurses on Evolving Cell Therapies (ONS 2023)
Purpose: This abstract presents data on two cell therapies being tested in clinical trials, afamitresgene autoleucel (afami-cel; formerly ADP-A2M4) and its next-generation counterpart ADP-A2M4CD8, to inform nurses on new promising therapies...SURPASS (NCT04044859) is a Phase 1, first-in-human trial evaluating ADP-A2M4CD8 as monotherapy or in combination with nivolumab in multiple tumor types... Nurses play key roles at every stage in the administration of T-cell therapy. Understanding advances in cancer treatment and associated clinical data will better prepare nurses to effectively manage patients that may benefit from these novel therapies.

SPEARHEAD-1: PRELIMINARY TRANSLATIONAL INSIGHTS FROM A PHASE 2 TRIAL OF AFAMITRESGENE AUTOLEUCEL (FORMERLY ADP-A2M4) IN PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED SYNOVIAL SARCOMA OR MYXOID/ROUND CELL LIPOSARCOMA (CTOS 2021)
Preliminary translational findings appear to demonstrate a potent and functionally active afami-cel MP which aligns with the promising clinical activity of afami-cel in the SPEARHEAD-1 trial to be presented at this congress. Ongoing detailed evaluation of translational datasets, including potential relationships between cell kinetics and pharmacodynamic effects (IFN signaling), and sarcoma TME profiling, aim to provide a deeper translational understanding of the mechanisms of afami-cel response. An update will be available at the time of the congress.[1] D Angelo et al.

These preliminary data demonstrate afami-cel is efficacious in heavily pre-treated patients with synovial sarcoma. Objective responses are reported across a wide range of MAGE-A4 antigen levels, and deep and durable responses have been observed. To date, the safety profile of afami-cel has been favorable, with mainly low-grade cytokine release syndrome and tolerable/reversible hematologic toxicities.

Enhancement of TCR-engineered T-cells targeting MAGE-A4 antigen by co-expression of CD8α and inhibition of AKT signaling during ex vivo T-cell expansion (SITC 2021)
scRNASeq gene expression profiles of first-gen ADP-A2M4 product manufactured with AKTi revealed the AKTi-expanded T-cells had a greater proliferation or an enhanced memory phenotype; scRNASeq analyses are ongoing for the ADP-A2M4CD8 product.An increase in IL-12 levels (MSD) in serum post-infusion suggests that endogenous immune cells are being activated, further resulting in increased levels of IFN gamma (MSD) secretion relative to patients who received first-gen product. These enhanced products improve CD4+ T-cell killing, release more inflammatory cytokines, proliferate more robustly with an early memory phenotype, and better engage the patient‘s endogenous immune system when compared to first-gen products or next-gen manufactured without AKTi.

[VIRTUAL] Nursing considerations for the use of MAGE-A4 targeted SPEAR T-cells in patients with synovial sarcoma (ONS 2021)
ADP-A2M4, a specific peptide enhanced affinity receptor (SPEAR) T-cell therapy directed towards HLA-A*02-restricted peptides, is being tested in Adaptimmune clinical trials to evaluate safety and antitumor activity in patients with synovial sarcoma...Prior to infusion, patients received lymphodepletion with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine...An understanding of clinical trial data will prepare nurses to provide evidence-based education on associated risks/benefits. In addition, clinical practice with the synovial sarcoma population can be enhanced when nurses are equipped with information associated with the administration of this novel therapy.

[VIRTUAL] Initial safety, efficacy, and product attributes from the SURPASS trial with ADP-A2M4CD8, a SPEAR T-cell therapy incorporating an affinity optimized TCR targeting MAGE-A4 and a CD8α co-receptor (SITC 2020)
Prior to infusion, pts receive lymphodepletion with fludarabine 30 mg/m2/day for 4 days and cyclophosphamide 600 mg/m2/day for 3 days. Results As of 16 July 2020, 5 pts (1 with MRCLS, 2 with esophagogastric junction [EGJ] cancers, 1 with ovarian cancer, and 1 with head and neck cancer) were treated with ADP-A2M4 CD8 (range ~1 to 5.7 billion transduced cells)...Translational data and early clinical results indicate that co-expression of the CD8α co-receptor on CD4+ SPEAR T-cells may increase the potency of the product by conferring additional killing activity to the helper T-cell subset. This dose escalation trial is ongoing and updated clinical and translational data will be presented.

Driving ADP-A2M4 SPEAR Expression from an Endogenous Hematopoietic Lineage Promotor for Off-The-Shelf T-Cell Therapy for MAGE-A4+ Solid Tumors (ASGCT 2020)
Overall, this work represents the development of an allogeneic hiPSC derived platform, with limited genome editing, that permits the production of SPEAR iT-cells with potential therapeutic value. The identification of a suitable locus for targeted integration of a defined TCR/SPEAR enables the future production of multiple iT-cell banks directed against specific tumor associated antigens in a defined and reproducible manner.
