Drs. John Sweetenham and Fred Locke discuss the FDA investigation on the risk of cancer from CAR T-cell therapy and share insights on the known number of cases and the potential implications on clinical research and patient care. TRANSCRIPT Dr. John Sweetenham: Hello, I'm Dr. John Sweetenham from the UT Southwestern Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center and host of the ASCO Daily News Podcast. CAR T-cell therapies have been game changers for treating certain cancers including lymphomas and leukemias, as well as multiple myeloma, since the vast majority of patients who have received CAR-T do not have other curative options with conventional non-cellular, anti-cancer therapies. But on November 28, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced that it is investigating whether CAR T-cell therapy can, in rare cases, cause secondary cancers. The FDA launched the probe after receiving reports from clinical trials and other data sources of T-cell malignancies in patients who received CAR T-cell immunotherapies. Joining me to discuss the investigation and its implications for the field is Dr. Fred Locke, a medical oncologist and translational researcher and a senior member and chair in the Department of Blood and Marrow Transplant and Cellular Immunotherapy at the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida. Dr. Locke is an internationally renowned clinical research leader in the field of CAR T-cell therapy. You'll find our disclosures in the transcript of this episode, and disclosures of all guests on podcasts are available at asco.org/DNpod. Fred, it's great to have you on the podcast today. Dr. Fred Locke: Thanks, John, I'm really glad to be here. Dr. John Sweetenham: So, T-cells are the backbone of CAR T-cell therapies, and there are currently 6 CAR-T products approved by the FDA. As our listeners will know, CAR T-cell therapies manipulate a patient's T-cells, enabling them to recognize and attack antigens on cancer cells and induce potential long-standing changes in the immune system. In its statement on November 28, the FDA said it determined that the risk of T-cell malignancies is applicable to all of the currently approved BCMA- and CD19-directed, genetically modified, autologous CAR T-cell immunotherapies. Fred, could you comment for us on the investigation: How many patients are reported to have developed second malignancies from CAR T-cell therapy, and whether there are likely to be more secondary cancers reported? Dr. Fred Locke: Yes, so the FDA and the reports are coming out that there are 19 cases of T-cell malignancy that we're aware of that have occurred after the current FDA-approved CAR T-cell therapies were administered for the treatment of leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. The majority of those cases were reported through the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System. And we don't know a lot of details of those 19 cases. We think that there's probably about 13,000 to 14,000 patients who've been treated with the commercial CAR T-cell therapies. So if you kind of do some crude math, you can come up with 19 out of say, 13,500; we're at about 0.1% of patients who could have developed T-cell lymphoma after treatment with these CAR T-cell therapies. It's not entirely out of the realm of possibility that T-cell lymphoma could develop from gene-modified T-cells, and these are all the patient's own T-cells that have been modified outside of the body. But I would still posit that this is a really low incidence of T-cell lymphomas in these patients who really are without other great treatment options. Dr. John Sweetenham: Yeah, and I think that's a point that we'll return to a little bit later on in the conversation around the fact that you know, clearly, there are major benefits that have been associated with CAR T-cell therapy and hematologic malignancies so far. And of course over the years, I think that many of us have become familiar with and learned a great deal about how to manage some of the more serious side effects of CAR T-cell therapy. And you, of course, have led several pivotal national trials of anti-CD19 CAR-Ts for lymphoma. Can you comment at all on whether you've seen previous data from your own practice or others on the risk of second malignancy from CAR T-cell therapy? And can you share your insights on the data and any new emerging data that warrants our attention for the concern or risk of second malignancy? And I guess to round up that series of questions, is there anything currently in yours or others research into CAR-T to explain what's happening and why this is going on? Dr. Fred Locke: I think what may have prompted the FDA's announcement of this is that on the same date that they came out with announcing their investigation, there was the release of the abstracts for the American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting. And within those abstracts, and unfortunately it was not selected for poster or oral abstract presentation, but discovered within those abstracts was one on a CAR+ T-cell lymphoma after ciltacabtagene autoleucel therapy for relapsed refractory multiple myeloma. And what these investigators and the company were reporting is that a patient with refractory multiple myeloma received the cilta-cel BCMA-directed CAR T-cell therapy and developed a stringent complete response, and about 5 months later developed a nasal facial plaque and PET+ cervical lymph nodes. And both the lymph nodes and the plaque were biopsied and showed a T-cell lymphoma in which 90% to 100% of the cells were positive by qPCR for the CAR construct and immunohistochemistry for the CAR protein. So this was a T-cell lymphoma growth where the cells were expressing the inserted protein, the chimeric antigen receptor protein, which is obviously not natural. And when they looked a little bit deeper at these patients, 91% of the cells have the same T-cell receptor sequence. So this was really a clonal sort of process. They did CAR integration analysis to see how the insertion of the CAR, the chimeric antigen receptor gene, could have potentially disrupted a gene within the T-cells. And what they found is that there were some dominant sort of insertions within certain genes suggesting monoclonality, but it wasn't within any sort of obvious activating genes that would be expected to lead to the T-cell lymphoma. They went on and did some additional analysis, and they showed that there was some existing TET2 mutations in the T-cells of this patient, prior to probably prior to the CAR T-cell manufacturer, and they weren't associated with clonal insertion. And I think, you know, it's possible that this patient who had a pre-existing mutation may have been susceptible to the development of a T-cell lymphoma prior to the CAR T-cell treatment. And TET2 was previously shown a number of years ago in a CLL patient treated with CD19 CAR T-cell therapy; it was shown that there was insertional mutagenesis, silencing the TET2 gene, and that associated with clonal expansion of the CAR T-cells in that patient and corresponded with remission of the CLL. However, the difference here is that that patient's T-cell clone went back down and contracted, and the patient remained in remission 5 years later with their T-cells still in the blood, but the minority of those T-cells had that that TET2 mutational insertional mutagenesis. All this is something we thought was theoretically possible, that T-cell lymphoma could develop after car T-cell therapy. And in fact, a prior trial using a different method of delivery of a CAR gene; instead of using a virus to insert the car into the into the T-cells, a transposon system called piggyBac was used. And in that trial, again, CD19 CAR trial, but in this case, it was allogeneic donor cells for patients who had relapsed after an allogeneic transplant. So it's sort of an autologous, you know, analogy, but it's using the donor cells. And in that trial, 2 out of like 10 patients developed clonal T-cell lymphoma, which was CAR+, but they weren't able to identify a clear insertional mutagenesis event in those cases. So, we've known this is possible, and it would have been great if this poster or if this abstract at ASH was presented as an oral or a poster so we could get more detail, but it's possible that that's the likely reason for the FDA's announcement. Dr. John Sweetenham: Thanks. The bottom line, I guess, is that for now, the jury's still out on exactly what's underlying these observations, but something which I'm sure is going to be the subject of a lot of discussion during the ASH meeting this year and moving forward. I'd like to inform our listeners that ASCO released a statement on the FDA investigation, stating that the risk of T-cell malignancies due to CAR T-cell therapy appears to be very low. And we've just heard from Dr. Locke that, of the several thousand patients who've received CAR Ts, there are 19 cases so far, it's been reported, which puts us into some type of proportion. The ASCO statement goes on to say that based on available data, and while such malignancies have occurred in patients who have received CAR T-cell therapy, the causal relationship, whether these cases are spontaneous or are caused by the therapy, needs to be investigated further, and we've just heard a little about the detail of that. ASCO added that by issuing a warning but not revoking approval of these therapies, the FDA clearly believes that the current available evidence suggests the overall benefits of these products, used within their approved label, continue to outweigh the potential risks. So Fred, the risk of secondary malignancies is already included as a class warning in the U.S. prescribing information for these CAR T-cell therapies. But do you think that the CAR-T products could eventually be taken off the market, and how would your research be impacted if this were to happen? And maybe finally, how long will patients on CAR T-cell therapy need to be monitored moving forward? Dr. Fred Locke: I don't believe that CAR T-cell therapy will be taken off the market. As we've already talked about, the incidence is extraordinarily low and the causality is unclear. It would certainly impact my research, as I'm doing clinical trials with CAR T-cell therapies, but it would more importantly impact the way we treat patients. We did over 300 CAR T-cell therapy treatments last year here at Moffitt Cancer Center. We're one of the busiest programs in the world giving CAR T-cell therapy, and it is truly a transformative therapy for all the diseases that we administer these FDA-approved therapies for. For example, in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, we participated in the ZUMA-7 clinical trial and recently reported that patients randomized to CAR T-cell therapy had improved overall survival. They were living longer than patients randomized in the second-line setting to get conventional chemotherapy and autologous transplant. This is clearly a therapy that can work. I would also add that the risk of secondary malignancies is real, but that's a risk for all cancer patients, particularly patients with hematologic malignancies, and for example, lymphoma patients who've gotten an autologous stem cell transplant are at a relatively high lifetime risk of developing a secondary myeloid malignancy, most commonly, treatment-related MDS or AML. And that risk is also present after CAR T-cell therapy. The degree of attribution of CAR-T versus the condition of chemotherapy for CAR-T versus the previous chemotherapy is all unclear, and more analysis needs to be done. But the risk of developing treatment-related MDS or leukemia is certainly higher than the small number of T-cell lymphomas reported. The other thing I want to point out is that there was an analysis of the SEER database that patients with B-cell lymphomas are at about a 5-fold higher risk of developing a T-cell lymphoma than the otherwise healthy population; and vice versa, by the way, T-cell lymphoma patients are at risk for developing B cell lymphoma. And in fact, in that SEER database, it's not a wildly different percentage chance of developing a T-cell lymphoma after a B-cell lymphoma. And this data came out before the advent of CAR T-cell therapy. So I really think we need more science to be done to understand what's happening for these patients. Will this impact the field? Well, certainly, there are treatments that are not CAR T-cell therapy that compete with CAR T-cell therapy or could; I'm a strong believer that they don't offer the same outcomes for patients, but we will certainly see people talking about this for some time. Then the other place where this could be relevant, I think, is as we look at CAR T-cell therapy for autoimmune disorders, and we're starting to see studies of that for lupus and other diseases, the risk to benefit ratio could be different in those cases. So this is something we really need to consider as we move forward with CAR T- cell therapy. Dr. John Sweetenham: Yeah, thanks, Fred. And as a major clinical investigator in the field of CAR-T at the moment, do you see any potential concerns about difficulties in getting patients onto the trials of CAR T-cell in the light of this information? Dr. Fred Locke: No, I really don't. We're not seeing hesitancy, at least in the patients who are referred in for CAR T-cell therapy. Again, it may give ammunition for those who are already predisposed to not refer patients in for CAR T-cell therapy, but I don't think it should. I think that these are low risks, and these therapies clearly have benefits to patients. And we should give their patients an opportunity to get these therapies, and I don't see it impacting our clinical trials at this point. Dr. John Sweetenham: Yeah, and your comments address what was going to be my final question to you and that is, as a referring oncologist, how would you advise a referring oncologist to talk with their patients about these data and their implications moving forward? Dr. Fred Locke: If the patient brings it up, I think the response should be that these are very few cases of very low incidence and very low risk. There are other risks to CAR T-cell therapy that are greater, and really speaking with a cell therapist who administers the treatment is probably the best way to give the patient the option to get CAR T-cell therapy if they want to, knowing all the risks and benefits. So, I would leave it up to the CAR-T treatment center to discuss those risks with the patient.   Dr. John Sweetenham: Well, thanks, Fred, for sharing your insights with us on these concerning developments in CAR T-cell therapy, and I think also for putting them into context in terms of the sort of magnitude of this problem in the context of the overall number of patients who are benefiting from this therapy right now. We truly appreciate your time, and thanks for sharing your thoughts with our listeners. Dr. Fred Locke: Thanks, John, my pleasure.

Episode in a Tweet: You will find success when you understand your values and what brings you joy. I found joy in helping people I care about and respect achieve their personal goals; nothing is more rewarding. Background: “There's a better way to do business.” This belief is what inspired Sam Jacobs to start his company, Pavillion. Sam says, “We've been taught that business is cutthroat — but it doesn't have to be. Pavilion is proof that building a business on foundational values, centering reciprocity, and coming from kindness works.” During this week's episode of Reflect Forward, Sam and I discuss the power of values, networking, and finding what brings you joy and doing it. Same talks about his book, Kind Folks Finish First, the story of how Pavillion came to be after being fired from his 5th job. After seeing his tenure as a revenue leader shrink, he was inspired to look at the long game and stop being transactional. Sam shares the process he went through to find his mission and how joy, kindness and respect drives everything he does. This is an introspective and fun conversion that I know you'll enjoy.

In another fascinating Nomad Futurist Podcast, Tom Brennan, the Executive Director of CREST, a cybersecurity company, spoke with Phil and Nabeel about his life as a public interest technologist. Brennan has had a fascination with technology ever since he was a child. He lived as an island boy in his teens, repairing an old Tele video 802-H brought by his grandfather from its work. His first exposure to machine repair led him to work at a local computer store selling and installing used IBM computer equipment.  In addition to working in the digital field, he served in the Marine Corps, where he learned how to serve a greater cause than himself. Even though he left the army in 1991 after breaking his back in a recorded live fire shooting, this experience was the foundation for his burgeoning career in cybersecurity. From then on, he used technology as a method in forensics, investigation, and assisting in various startups. “I don't necessarily think that schools need to change the mentality, but I do think that there should be a reward program as it's been difficult for most of the cyber folks.” Brennan expressed that the least the companies could do is require the applicant to do a first-hand demonstration of essential incident response, security services, or penetration testing. He said that while there are many book smarts, the most qualified candidates for the job are passionate about convergence, the physical and electronic sides of security. He believes the most common misconception in cybersecurity is that people mistake it for convenience. People are unaware that the fundamentals will cause them to lose all their information and passwords.  “It serves the ethics side of the good guys and the ethics of the bad guys because the internet is a wonderful place. It allows everybody to operate. So, it's in everyone's interest to make it operational.” He emphasised that while the scope of their job is to keep an eye out for users who are prone to data breaches, people should also understand that the field is highly dynamic and that they should learn how to protect their accounts.  “You are your own bank. If you're going to be your own bank, and you're going to go ahead and have controls in place… you must determine what good looks like.” In his final message to the youth, he stated that to be successful in the field, one must be exposed to the right company and experiences. It will assist them in collaborating skills that will fruit their specialities.  “Security is not compliance. Compliance is compliance; security helps. But if you're secure, you're most likely going to be compliant because all the standards out there are the best practices.” Tom leads the Americas Council and collaborates with government and commercial organisations to maximise our value as a cybersecurity accreditation body and advocate for industry standards. His attention is drawn to the cybersecurity and infrastructure security agency's 16 critical infrastructure sectors, which are essential to US security, the national economy, and public health and safety. He directs strategic plans for our organisation's expansion while serving as an industry evangelist and educator on the importance of using accredited cybersecurity products and professionals to improve consumer privacy, security, and protections globally. Tom is a former US Marine who has been involved with CREST since 2016. He currently serves as the Chief Information Officer for the national law firm Mandelbaum Salsburg, overseeing critical infrastructure, privacy, and security operations. He is also a member of the Gerson Lehrman Group's Advisory Board, a member of the County College of Morris' Information Technology Advisory Committee, a Senior Advisor and Industry Advisory Board Member of the New Jersey Institute of Technology, and a member of the NYU Tandon School of Engineering's Cyber Fellows Advisory Council.

Are you ready for a Challenge? Join me LIVE with other CEO's, Founders, and Revenue Leaders from July 26th-30th at the Referrals for Revenue Challenge: https://www.referralsforrevenuechallenge.com/goHave you ever learned something in your career the hard way? Often, we only realize the value of lessons much later when we have gained a lot more experience. Today's guest, Sam Jacobs, learned about humility only after quitting his job in investment banking to start a record label that failed abysmally. He also learned some vital lessons after getting fired multiple times from several different companies over the last decade. Sam has had a huge diversity of experiences. He is the Founder and CEO of Pavilion, the premier community and premier development platform for high-growth leaders and their teams at every function.After grinding for a long time, Sam started Revenue Collective as a group therapy session and community for his friends and peers so that they could support each other, help one another find jobs, and get better at their jobs. He started the community as a group in New York. They got together every quarter to talk about their problems and challenges over some drinks or a meal. People from all over the world started hearing about it. They began reaching out to Sam to start new chapters. So they got some other chapter heads in London, Toronto, Boston, and Amsterdam, and they also added Indianapolis, Denver, and Atlanta. Revenue Collective started charging dues at the start of 2018. Sam was still working then, so it was a side-hustle for him. After getting fired from his job a few months later, he decided to do it full-time. He figured that if he got 2000 paying members, he could survive in New York. It was a huge success, and they rebranded to become Pavilion. The mission of the company is about helping each person get where they want to go in their life through their work. Pavilion was profitable, and Sam was not planning on raising any money. However, he got an email from Elephant Ventures, offering him $25,000,000. So he took the money and used it to build his company to where it is today.  Getting fired sucks for many reasons, regardless of how much you get paid for severance. Despite making a lot of money at Gerson Lehrman Group, Sam was not happy there. He went through a divorce at the same time as he got fired from GLG, so he lost a lot of money, and his income also dropped drastically. That was the start of a radical transformation for Sam.Sam went to work for Axial in their very early stage. After getting fired, he went to Livestream. He left there to join TheMuse.Com as their CRO and, after seven months, was asked to leave. They felt he was not a good fit for their culture because he was too hard. He then moved onto Behavox but got asked to leave because he was too lenient. Getting fired at the executive level is not quite as crazy as getting fired as an account executive. At the executive level, you get fired as an individual contributor because you did not hit your number. If you get fired as a C-Suite executive, however, it is probably because your vision does not align with what the CEO wants to do, and ultimately, you are in service of the CEO's vision.Although he is introverted, Sam loves to help people. Since starting Revenue Collective in 2016, Sam has been sincerely looking for ways to help his friends and the broader community. Sam loves hearing about people who work hard, want to be better, do things the right way, and succeed. He recently did a workshop for their Rising Executives Program and realized that 5 of those who joined their January class have already been promoted to VP.Getting fired from The Muse was a turning point in Sam's life. That was when he decided to stop relying on other people and start charging dues for Revenue Collective. He also decided to try for sponsorship, so he asked Kevin O'Malley of SalesLoft for $10,000 to put together a dinner for him in New York each quarter. Kevin agreed, and Sam started charging dues of $50 per month. 19 of the 21 members paid their dues. Sam kept on moving forward, and more people wanted to join his collective.To build a successful company, you need to find a technical person to build a product. Unfortunately, finding engineers is the hardest part of building a company because most engineers want to work for other smart engineers. That is why you need to have a product-driven founder. Before, Sam never gave himself the right to believe that his community could get big and never allowed himself to dream. Covid was an inflection point because everything became digital, and many networking businesses failed to adapt and went out of business. They adapted very quickly, however, and grew 5x during Covid.Over the past few months, Sam finally let himself believe that the thing he was doing could be huge. A paid membership model is a more elegant way to do things because it forces people to commit, and they can be your customer. Sam built Pavilion, which is worth $100,000,000, using other people's tools. That makes him wonder if we could be moving to a world where engineering talent is no longer the prerequisite that it used to be to build a valuable company. Quantifying his values and writing down what he believed internally for his company (then Revenue Collective) was extremely powerful for Sam. In 2018, he decided that if his company grew to 1000 people, he would stay close to the reasons he started in the first place, keep on checking in with those values, and be as helpful and useful to the membership as possible.You don't need to be a genius with B2B. You only need to listen to your customers. They will tell you what they want, so keep your mouth shut and listen. One of Pavilion's values is: Listen closely. Act quickly.All Sam thinks about is what people need.During Covid, Sam decided to start an exclusive community that people could only join if they were out of work. It was to help people find jobs and provide group therapy for those who could not. He called it On the Bench, and there are currently 200 people in the program. Sam had no master plan. He just tried to do the next right thing.There are 3 jobs for the CEO:Never run out of moneyRecruit or build a teamSet the visionYou need to delegate effectively. Sam is lazy, which is good because he delegates.Delegating helps you scale. If you set clear direction and clear values, you can grow.Telling people to go and figure things out is good for creating their self-reliance. It can also be difficult because sometimes it is better to have someone else help you figure things out.The top sales and marketing levers that Sam pulled to get the growth he did from a bootstrap perspective for Revenue Collective were:He created brand affinity by explicitly encouraging people to put Revenue Collective on their LinkedIn profiles. Initially, 50% of the community did it. Now, 82% of the community does it.He created a multi-level marketing component to Revenue Collective because he shares the money from the dues with people for the work they do for the platform. Some of the members tied their brands to Revenue Collective because they benefited personally from a financial incentive for doing that.He does unscalable things that lead to scale, like coaching calls, to show customers that he cares. Sam feels that people are overly obsessed with ‘scale' on the margin.Venture capital is good if you have a strong product-market fit and a strong go-to-market fit. The limiting factor in your growth is just money, so if you have something that lots of people love, get it into as many hands as possible, and cement your competitive advantage, venture capital can be very powerful.  Venture capital is a bad thing if you misdefine what you perceive to be your exceptionalism, and as a consequence, you take on a lot of money, obligation, and an expectation of growth that you are not ready to deliver on.It could take 18 months to 2 years to work yourself into a position to raise money.Sam cares about a different way of doing business and teaching people that you can split the difference and leave some money on the table. It is okay to do something for someone without asking for anything in return, even if some people take advantage of your generosity. It will all come back to you eventually for what you want to achieve in your life, including making money.There is a different way to live. It is about helping before asking for help, looking to offer advice, and not treating relationships transactionally.Links and resources:Sam Jacobs on LinkedInJoin PavilionEmail Sam Jacobs: sam@joinpavilion.comNeed help scaling your revenue?
