The study demonstrates that CAR-T cells targeting CXCR5 effectively inhibit tumor growth by depleting both B cells and follicular T helper cells in lymphoma models, suggesting a promising treatment strategy for nodal B-NHLs.
CAR-T cell therapy targeting CD19 demonstrated strong activity against advanced B cell leukemia, however shows less efficacy against lymphoma with nodal dissemination. To target both B cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHLs) and follicular T helper (Tfh) cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME), we apply here a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that recognizes human CXCR5 with high avidity. CXCR5, physiologically expressed on mature B and Tfh cells, is also highly expressed on nodal B-NHLs. Anti-CXCR5 CAR-T cells eradicate B-NHL cells and lymphoma-supportive Tfh cells more potently than CD19 CAR-T cells in vitro, and they efficiently inhibit lymphoma growth in a murine xenograft model. Administration of anti-murine CXCR5 CAR-T cells in syngeneic mice specifically depletes endogenous and malignant B and Tfh cells without unexpected on-target/off-tumor effects. Collectively, anti-CXCR5 CAR-T cells provide a promising treatment strategy for nodal B-NHLs through the simultaneous elimination of lymphoma B cells and Tfh cells of the tumor-supporting TME. CAR-T cell therapy targeting CD19 is not as efficient to treat lymphoma with nodal dissemination as it is for B cell leukaemia. Here, the authors generate CAR-T cells against CXCR5 and show they inhibit tumour growth by depleting both B and follicular T helper cells in lymphoma models.
