A major complication of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), which presents as aphasia, confusion, weakness, somnolence, seizures, and coma. This is similar to the neurologic manifestations of hypophosphatemia, which can result from sudden increases in metabolic demand for phosphorylated intermediates (e.g., refeeding syndrome and sepsis). Given these similarities, we investigated whether CAR T-cell effector metabolic activity is associated with increased extracellular phosphate consumption and a possible association between hypophosphatemia and ICANS. In vitro 4-1BB and CD28 CD19-targeted CAR T-cell effector activity was found to be associated with increased consumption of media phosphorus, which was temporally associated with increased single-cell effector secretomic activity and increased phosphorus-dependent metabolic demand of the CAR T cells. A clinical cohort of 77 patients treated with CD19-targeted CAR T-cell therapy demonstrated a significant anticorrelation between serum phosphorus and ICANS incidence and severity, with earlier onset of hypophosphatemia after CAR T-cell infusion more likely to result in neurotoxicity. These results imply phosphorous level monitoring could alert to the development of ICANS in clinical scenarios. See related Spotlight by Tobin et al., p. 1422.
