1 .- 28 . (canceled)
29 . A method for treating or preventing CAR immune cell toxicity in an individual, the method comprising administering to the individual an effective amount of an anti-CD25 antibody drug conjugate (ADC).
30 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein a CAR immune cell has been administered to the individual prior to administration of the ADC.
31 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein a CAR immune cell has been administered to the individual at least 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 2 years, or 5 years prior to administration of the ADC.
32 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the individual has CAR immune cell toxicity or has been determined to have CAR immune cell toxicity.
33 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the individual does not have CAR immune cell toxicity or has not been determined to have CAR immune cell toxicity.
34 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the individual had a disorder, or had been determined to have a disorder, wherein the individual has reached complete response (CR) to the disorder or has been determined to have reached complete response (CR) to the disorder.
35 . The method according to claim 34 , wherein the disorder is selected from the group consisting of:
(i) a proliferative disease;
(ii) cancer;
(iii) a haematological cancer; and
(iv) Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma, including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma, (FL), Mantle Cell lymphoma (MCL), chronic lymphatic lymphoma (CLL), Marginal Zone B-cell lymphoma (MZBL) and leukemias such as Hairy cell leukemia (HCL), Hairy cell leukemia variant (HCL-v), Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML), and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) such as Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL (Ph+ALL) or Philadelphia chromosome-negative ALL (Ph−ALL).
36 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the anti-CD25 ADC is administered in a dosage regime sufficient to eliminate or inactivate CAR immune cells in the individual.
37 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the anti-CD25 ADC is administered as a single dose.
38 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the anti-CD25 ADC is administered as two doses.
39 . The method according to claim 38 , wherein the second dose is administered 1 week or 3 weeks after the first dose.
40 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein each dose of anti-CD25 ADC is about 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 150, 200, 250, or 300 μg/kg.
41 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein each dose of anti-CD25 ADC is about 1 to 10 μg/kg, 11 to 20 μg/kg, 21 to 30 μg/kg, 31 to 40 μg/kg, 41 to 50 μg/kg, 51 to 60 μg/kg, 61 to 70 μg/kg, 71 to 80 μg/kg, 81 to 90 μg/kg, 91 to 100 μg/kg, 101 to 120 μg/kg, 121 to 140 μg/kg, 141 to 160 μg/kg, 161 to 180 μg/kg, 181 to 200 μg/kg, 201 to 220 μg/kg, 221 to 240 μg/kg, 241 to 260 μg/kg, 261 to 280 μg/kg, or 281 to 300 μg/kg.
42 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the individual is human.
43 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the CAR immune cell toxicity is one or more disorder selected from the following:
(a) Cytokine Release syndrome (CRS), such as elevated IL-6, elevated interferon gamma, elevated tumour necrosis factor, pyrexia, fatigue, nausea, tachycardia, hypotension, dyspnea, shortness of breath, pulmonary edema, or cardiac dysfunction;
bh) Neurotoxicity, such as cerebral oedema, confusion, delirium, aphasia, or encephalopathy;
(c) Tumour Lysis Syndrome (TLS), such as hyperuricemia, or hyperkalemia;
(d) Cellular and/or humoral immune responses, such as anaphylaxis;
(e) On-target, off-tumour recognition; or
(f) Off-target, off-tumour recognition.
44 . The method according to claim 30 , wherein the administered CAR immune cell expresses a CAR that specifically binds a tumour associated antigen, and/or the administered CAR immune cell expresses a CAR that specifically binds CD19, CD20, or CD22.
45 . The method according to claim 29 , wherein the CAR immune cell is a CAR T-cell.
46 . The method according to claim 46 , wherein the CAR T-cell is a 1st generation CAR T-cell, a 2nd generation CAR T-cell, a 3rd generation CAR T-cell, a 4th generation CAR T-cell, a TRUCK, a smart CAR, or an iCAR.
