Adoptive transfer of in vitro expanded, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-redirected CD19-specific T cells can induce dramatic disease regression in patients with leukemia and lymphomas. However, the full potential of this emerging modality is hampered in some cancer settings by a significant rate of therapeutic failure arising from the attenuated engraftment and persistence of CAR-redirected T cells, and tumor relapse following adoptive transfer. Here, we discuss an advanced strategy that facilitates post-infusion in vivo boosting of CAR T cells via CMV vaccination, to mediate durable remission of B cell malignancies by engrafting a CAR molecule onto a CMV-specific T cell. We also discuss a feasible and unique platform for the generation of the CMV-CD19CAR T cells for clinical application. This new approach would overcome multiple challenges in current CAR T cell technology including: short T cell persistence, limited duration of response, and inability to re-stimulate T cells after relapse or persistent disease.
