Researchers at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN have demonstrated that CRISPR/Cas9 GM-CSF knock-out in CAR-T cells (GM-CSFKO CAR-T) dampens CAR-T cell early activation and reduces activation-induced cell death (AICD), resulting in enhanced antigen-specific T-cell expansion in vivo. The modulation of intrinsic pathways is not due to an off-target effect and provides additional mechanistic rationale for the improved anti-tumor activity observed with GM-CSFKO CAR-T.

"These findings highlight the intrinsic value of GM-CSFKO CAR-T as a novel, potentially more effective and less toxic platform to enhance current CAR-T cell therapies," said Cameron Durrant, MD, MBA, chief executive officer of Humanigen.

Mayo Clinic researchers will present their research entitled, "GM-CSF disruption in CAR-T cells ameliorates CAR-T cell activation and reduces activation-induced cell death," on May 28, 2021 from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM ET as part of the session titled "Novel Allo-Engineering Approaches and Progress in Off-the-Shelf Products."

"Mayo Clinic is enthusiastic about these findings, and they provide us with valuable information to enhance our current CAR-T cell therapies," said Saad S. Kenderian, MD, Division of Hematology, Mayo Clinic.
