Patient outcomes and persistence of CAR T cells after therapy. (A) Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of study patients. (B) Persistence of genetically modified T cells postinfusion was assessed by droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) and by flow cytometry as previously described. ddPCR was used to evaluate integrated CAR transgene copy number per microgram of genomic DNA (gDNA). Insets (bar graphs) show CAR copy number (mean ± standard deviation [SD], log-axis) at the latest time point. CAR+ Jurkat Clone 12 (stably expressing CD19-specific CAR [P]) was used as positive control, and Water (W) was used as negative control alongside patient sample (S). Using flow cytometry, total viable cells were gated to reveal CD3+CAR+ T cells and CD19+CD20+ B cells. Ex vivo expanded, genetically modified CD19-specific CARpos T cells were used as positive controls, and CARneg normal donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells or ex vivo expanded mock electroporated cells were used as negative controls.
