Epstein Barr Virus-Positive Lymphoproliferative Disorder Following Lymphodepletion for MAGE A4 Adoptive Cellular Therapy in a Patient with Synovial Sarcoma: A Case Report.

Abstract

Lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) associated with viral reactivation is a known risk of immunocompromised patients. With development of novel cellular therapies utilizing lymphodepletion regimens in advanced cancer, the risk of LPDs should be a consideration. Here, we report a case of a 61-year-old treated male with history of metastatic synovial sarcoma and multiple treatment lines treated with cell therapy (lymphodepleting chemotherapy and afami-cel, formerly ADP-A2M4, T-cell treatment) on clinical study that developed Epstein Barr virus-positive LPD. Patient was treated with rituximab and achieved a complete response. New cellular therapies present promising treatment options for patients and adverse events should be monitored carefully.
