A recent review explored 2 different breakthrough therapies for Multiple Myeloma: CAR-T and BsAbs. ✳️ The landscape of multiple myeloma (MM) treatment has undergone a remarkable evolution, with novel agents revolutionising therapeutic strategies. Among these, B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) has emerged as a promising target, leading to the development of innovative immune approaches. ✳️ Immunotherapies leveraging chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-engineered T-cells and bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) have garnered significant attention in MM treatment, demonstrating superior potential over conventional regimens. Recent clinical trials underscore their efficacy, positioning them as pivotal players in MM management. ✳️ However, while CAR-T and BsAbs targeting BCMA offer breakthrough potential, their integration into clinical practice presents challenges. This review delves into associated limitations, emphasising the importance of patient selection and treatment customisation. Optimising efficacy and minimising toxicity through strategic combination or sequencing of therapies is paramount, particularly for patients with limited treatment options.

#Autoimmunity | The #Immunology of #Type1Diabetes | Authoritative Review from Lucy Walker & Co. | #Tcells | #Bcells | #microbiome | #drugs | #genes | Following the seminal discovery of insulin a century ago, treatment of individuals with type 1 diabetes (T1D) has been largely restricted to efforts to monitor and treat metabolic glucose dysregulation. The recent regulatory approval of the first immunotherapy that targets T cells as a means to delay the autoimmune destruction of pancreatic β-cells highlights the critical role of the immune system in disease pathogenesis and tends to pave the way for other immune-targeted interventions for T1D. Improving the efficacy of such interventions across the natural history of the disease will probably require a more detailed understanding of the immunobiology of T1D, as well as technologies to monitor residual β-cell mass and function. Here* the authors provide an overview of the immune mechanisms that underpin the pathogenesis of T1D, with a particular emphasis on T cells. *https://lnkd.in/euhUYhsc Celentyx Ltd Professor Nicholas Barnes PhD, FBPhS Omar Qureshi Catherine Brady FIGURE | Drugs and mechanisms that have shown efficacy in T1D | The targets of these therapies have included innate and inflammatory mediators and pathways, B cells, costimulatory molecules, T cells and β-cells. The principle targets of drug action are highlighted in red. The T cells depicted are generic and may include several different subsets (for example, CD4+, CD8+, TFH cells and others). mAb, monoclonal antibody |

Bye-Bye #Bcells 🤔 | B-Cell Directed #Therapy in #Autoimmunity | #mAbs | #CARTcells | #BiTEs | #CAARTcells | Jennifer Anolik & Co. Examine the Field in Terrific Ahead-of-Publication Article at Annual Reviews #Immunology 👍 | Autoimmune diseases with B cell–directed therapeutics approved by the US Food and Drug Administration are surprisingly diverse in clinical manifestations and pathophysiology. In this review*, Ilana Abeles, Christopher Palma, et al focus on recent clinical and mechanistic insights into the efficacy of B cell depletion in these diverse autoimmune disorders, the rapidly expanding armamentarium of approved agents, and future approaches. The pathogenic roles for B cells include direct functions such as production of autoantibodies and proinflammatory cytokines and indirect functions via antigen presentation to T cells. The efficacy of B cell–depleting strategies varies across diseases and likely reflects the complexity of disease pathogenesis and relative contribution of B cell roles. Additionally, B cell–depleting therapies do not equally target all B cell subsets in all patients, and this likely explains some of the variability in responses. Recent reports of B cell depletion with novel chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell approaches in an expanding number of autoimmune diseases highlight the potential role of B cell depletion in resetting immune tolerance. The relative importance of eliminating autoreactive B cells and plasma cells and approaches to doing so are also be discussed. *https://lnkd.in/eqViMQVq Celentyx Ltd #autoimmunedisease #drugdiscovery #platforms www.celentyx.com Professor Nicholas Barnes PhD, FBPhS Omar Qureshi Catherine Brady FIGURE | Comparison of conventional monoclonal antibody B cell–depletion approaches, CAR T or CAAR T cell therapy, and bispecific antibodies |
