CD19 CAR T cells became a breakthrough therapy in pediatric relapsed and refractory B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia. 1,2 Standard usage of autologous T cells as a starting population for CAR-T manufacturing is often limited by the functional state of a patient's T cells and negatively affected by previous chemotherapy and posttransplant immune suppression. Healthy donor-derived T cells for CAR-T production may solve the issue of poor T-cell quality but is restricted by the risks of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and rejection of the CAR-T product, especially in the setting of haploidentical family donors. [3][4][5] Use of virus-specific T cells for CAR-T manufacturing was proposed as an approach to limit the alloreactivity of donor-derived CAR T cells after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). 6 Depletion of naïve (CD45RA + ) T cells reduces the frequency of alloreactive T cells and is used to process hematopoietic stem cell grafts and donor lymphocyte infusions to lower the risk of GVHD. 7,8 The potential mechanisms of reduced alloreactivity of the CD45RA-depleted T cells include limited diversity of the T-cell receptor repertoire, diminished proliferative capacity, and differential tissue homing. [9][10][11] Recently, the possibility of large-scale bioreactor-based manufacturing of the memory T-cell-derived CAR-T product was demonstrated. 12 The animal studies suggest that CD45RA-depleted fraction can be used to produce CAR T cells that are equipotent to conventionally generated CAR T cells in vivo and do not induce xenogeneic GVHD. 13 Encouraged by these reports, we validated the manufacturing of healthy donor-derived memory CAR T cells (CAR-Tm) based on automatic large-scale bioreactor processing.Five pediatric patients with relapsed and refractory B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia were offered the therapy with CAR-Tm on a compassionate-use basis. In each case, an Institutional Review Board approval for named-patient use was provided. All 5 cases had B-ALL, relapsing after multiple lines of treatment, including HSCT (n = 5), autologous CD19 CAR-T (n = 4), and blinatumomab (n = 3) therapy (Figure 1F). Median age at treatment was 9 years old. At the time of allogeneic CAR-Tm application, disease burden was either overt leukemia (n = 3) or minimal residual disease-level disease (n = 2). CAR-Tm were derived from haploidentical familial HSCT donors, and in all cases, the same donor as for HSC graft was used. CAR-Tm products were applied after HSCT on days plus 42, plus 100, and plus 539 in 3 cases and simultaneously with the HSC grafts on day 0 in 2 cases (Figure 1A). In all cases, HSCT from haploidentical donors was performed based on the ex vivo αβ T-cell depletion platform as described before (Figure 1B). 8,14 In 2 cases, standard fludarabine (120 mg/m 2 ) and cyclophosphamide (750 mg/m 2 ) lymphodepletion was used (Figure 1A; supplemental Figure 1). In 2 cases, lymphodepletion was represented by the pre-HSCT conditioning as shown in Figure 1F. Specifically, the use of antith...
