In humans, a type of cellular immunotherapy, called adoptive T cell transfer (ACT), can elicit curative responses against hematological malignancies and melanoma. ACT using  ex vivo  expanded peripheral blood T-cells after multiagent chemotherapy enhances tumor-free survival of dogs with B-cell lymphoma (LSA). Since 2008, our group has been performing autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplants (autoPBHSCT) for the treatment of canine high-grade B-cell LSA, although relapse of residual disease is a common cause of reduced survival in ~70% of treated dogs. We reasoned that a more aggressive treatment protocol combining CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) chemotherapy, autoPBHSCT, and ACT to treat 10 dogs with B-cell LSA could lead to better outcomes when compared to dogs treated with CHOP chemotherapy and autoPBHSCT alone. Using this protocol, once dogs achieved complete hematologic reconstitution post-autoPBHSCT, CD3+ CD8+ and CD3+CD4+ T-cells were expanded from the peripheral blood at a commercial laboratory. Two to four ACT infusions were given to each dog, with a total of 23 infusions given. Infusions were administered with no complications or adverse events. The median cell dose for all infusions was 5.62 x 10 6  cells/kg (range: 2.59 x 10 6 -8.55 x 10 6  cells/kg). 4/10 (40%) of dogs were cured of their disease (defined as disease-free for ≥2 years post-autoPBHSCT). Our results confirm that the autoPBHSCT protocol did not hinder the  in vitro  expansion of autologous peripheral blood T-cells and that the final product could be administered safely, with no adverse events recorded. Finally, since only ten dogs were treated, our results can only suggest that the administration of ACT to dogs after multiagent chemotherapy and autoPHSCT did not lead to a statistically significant increase in median disease-free interval and overall survival when compared to dogs who received CHOP chemotherapy and autoPHSCT alone.
