T-Cell Therapeutics Targeting Human Parainfluenza Virus 3 Are Broadly Epitope Specific and Are Cross Reactive With Human Parainfluenza Virus 1

Abstract: Human Parainfluenza Virus-3 (HPIV3) causes severe respiratory illness in immunocompromised patients and lacks approved anti-viral therapies. A phase I study of adoptively transferred virus-specific T-cells (VSTs) targeting HPIV3 following bone marrow transplantation is underway (NCT03180216). We sought to identify immunodominant epitopes within HPIV3 Matrix protein and their cross-reactivity against related viral proteins. VSTs were generated from peripheral blood of healthy donors by ex-vivo expansion after s… Show more

“…Without the use of early activation markers, standard FCM demonstrated Actin responses that were 12-27 times higher for CD4+ and 5-30 times higher for CD8+ T cells compared to those measured using A-FCM. Similar range of background IFNγ responses to Actin were also recorded by others [42]. Such high background responses to self-antigens using standard FCM likely represent pre-assay antigen-unrelated responses, (as seen in Figure 4).…”

“…To facilitate translation to the clinic, PBMCs from 6 additional SARS-CoV-2 convalescent donors and 1 repeat donor were selected to expand a GMP-compliant product using G-Rex 10 bioreactors, as were used for our other VST products. 36,37 Six out of 7 donor-derived CSTs demonstrated numerically increased expansion in G-Rex 10 bioreactors in the setting of IL-15 + IL-7 compared with IL-4 + IL-7, with a mean fold expansion of 3.2 versus 1.9 (p = 0.08).…”

“…106,107 Major advances in synthetic overlapping peptide pools, use of cytokines and culture vessels/bioreactors, along with the in-depth characterization of immunogenic epitopes/antigens presented through human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules, have since then facilitated the production process and provided a springboard to extend the breadth of pathogens that can be targeted by T cells. Indeed, over the last years, the pST cell therapy platform has been simplified and adapted to an array of pathogens which complicate immune-deficient states, including viruses such as BK polyomavirus (BKV), [108][109][110] human herpesviruses [varicella zoster virus (VZV), 111 human herpesvirus 6 (HHV6) 112] , respiratory viruses [influenza, 113 human parainfluenza virus-3 (HPIV3), 114,115 human metapneumovirus (hMPV) 116] , herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), 117 human papillomavirus (HPV), [118][119][120] Zika virus, 121 norovirus, 122 fungi such as AF, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus terreus, C. albicans, Candida krusei, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizopus oryzae, Lomentospora prolificans [123][124][125][126] and recently the more complex Mycobacteria 127 (Table 2).…”
