Zalmoxis: animal efficacy model or human cells?
allogeneic T cells modified with HSV-TK / dLNGFR (nalotimagene carmaleucel) · HSV-TK suicide-gene T cells
Efficacy evidence
Xenogeneic GvHD models in NOD/SCID mice comparing MM-TK with unmanipulated PBL
“Two studies in two different GvHD animal models both based on the NOD/SCID system were performed to evaluate the PK and primary PD of MM-TK.”
Why that model
Human T-cell product; mouse models lack human cytokines (IL7, IL15, IL2) and HLA-expressing APCs, limiting extrapolation
“The DLI engraftment is dependent on the availability of human cytokines IL7, IL15 and IL2, and promoted by the TCR of HLA-expressing antigen presenting cells, which are not present in the animal model.”
Reviewer's view of the efficacy data
Limited: GCV efficacy tested only in first model and few animals developed GvHD
“Only in the first model the efficacy of GCV treatment was evaluated. However, as only a limited number of animals developed GvHD/Xeno-reaction only limited information on the effectiveness of GVC treatment could be obtained in this study.”
