The in vivo persistence of adoptively transferred T cells is predictive of anti-tumor response. Identifying functional properties of infused T cells that lead to in vivo persistence and tumor eradication has remained elusive. We profiled CD19-specific CAR T cells that comprise the infusion products used to treat large B cell lymphomas using high-throughput single-cell technologies based on Timelapse Imaging Microscopy In Nanowell Grids (TIMING) that integrates killing, cytokine secretion, and transcriptional profiling. Our results show that the directional migration of CD19-specific CAR T cells is correlated with polyfunctionality. We identified that CD2 on T cells is associated with directional migration and that the interaction between CD2 on T cells and CD58 on lymphoma cells accelerates killing and serial killing. Consistent with this, we observed elevated CD58 expression on pre-treatment tumor samples in patients with relapsed or refractory large B cell lymphomas treated with CD19-specific CAR T cell therapy was associated with complete clinical response and survival. These results highlight the importance of studying dynamic T-cell tumor cell interactions in identifying optimal antitumor responses.KEY POINTS- Profiling patient infusion products revealed that polyfunctional CAR T cells show directional migration, which is associated with higher CD2 expression- The ligand for CD2, CD58 is expressed at higher levels in the tumors of lymphoma patients who respond better to CAR T cell treatment |
