Abstract
Energy metabolism of chimeric antigen receptor-T cells (CAR-T) activation in humans remains unexplored. As a glycolytic activity surrogate, we investigated the dynamics of peripheral blood (PB) lactate in the first weeks post-CAR-T infusion. In 17 patients treated with CD28 harbording anti-CD19 CAR-T for relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphomas, PB lactate levels increased following CAR-T infusion. Elevated lactate levels correlated with longer CAR-T persistence and higher CD8+/CD4+ ratio. Peripheral blood lactate kinetics may reflect immune cells activation and be useful for bedside monitoring.
