CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy is efficacious for refractory/relapsed (R/R) B-cell hematological malignancies, yet relapse due to CD19 antigen escape remains a challenge. Our trial explored simultaneous targeting of multiple B-cell antigens as a therapeutic approach that may reduce the risk of relapse. We tested the safety and efficacy of CAR19/22 T-cell cocktail therapy including murinized and humanized products among patients with R/R aggressive B-cell lymphoma. In the group that received the humanized product, 11/12 (91.7%) patients achieved an objective response, including 9/12 (75%) complete responses (CRs) by day 28. The overall response rate and CR rate in the murinized group was 92.9% (13/14) and 42.9% (6/14), respectively. Nine of 12 (75%) patients in the humanized group maintained CR at month 3 following infusion, compared to 5/14 patients (35.7%) in the murinized group. Progression-free survival (PFS) was more favorable in the humanized compared to the murinized group. Most patients had mild cytokine release syndrome (CRS) (grade 1–2) in both groups. This study demonstrates that CAR19/22 T-cell cocktail therapy is safe and effective for R/R B-cell lymphoma and that patients treated with a humanized CAR-T exhibited better efficacy compared to patients treated with a murinized CAR-T therapy.
