*Purpose: Tab-cel is an investigational, off-the-shelf, allogeneic EBV-specific T-cell immunotherapy for serious EBV-driven diseases, including EBV+ PTLD. Poor overall survival (OS) in patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory EBV+ PTLD reveals an urgent unmet need for effective therapies. We previously reported promising interim data from ALLELE (NCT03394365), a ph 3 multicenter clinical trial of tab-cel after failure of R±CT in pts with EBV+ PTLD following SOT or HCT. Here we highlight overall SOT efficacy and safety; outcomes for SOT1 (failure of R) and SOT2 (failure of R+CT) subgroups will be presented.
*Methods: Outcomes were assessed in pts with EBV+ PTLD following SOT or HCT after failure of R±CT and in the SOT1 (n=11) and SOT2 (n=13) subgroups. Pts received tab-cel at 2×106 cells/kg on days 1, 8 and 15 in a 35d treatment cycle.
*Results: As of May 2021, 24 SOT and 14 HCT pts were evaluable for assessment and had the opportunity for 6 mo follow-up. Objective response rate (ORR) was 50% (19/38) in all pts and 50% (12/24) in SOT, with best overall response of CR (26.3%) or PR (23.7%) (Table). Overall, median time to response was 1.1 mo; 11/19 responders had a duration of response lasting >6 mo. Estimated median OS was 18.4 mo overall and 16.4 mo for SOT; estimated 1-year survival rates were 61.1% overall and 57.4% for SOT. Responders had a longer survival vs non-responders in overall (Fig) and SOT groups. Further analysis of SOT1 and SOT2 subgroups will be presented. Tab-cel was well-tolerated with no evidence of adverse events attributable to treatment.
*Conclusions: We show clinically meaningful outcomes and promising ORR and OS in a pt population with poor survival and no approved therapies. Tab-cel was well tolerated without evidence of safety concerns typically observed with autologous chimeric antigen receptor cell therapies.
