CAR T-Cell Therapy

Lindsey S. Treviño, PhD, discusses some of the disparities that currently exist among patients with cancer.

TBI-1301 demonstrated superior efficacy compared with standard-of-care treatment in patients with synovial sarcoma. Further research is warranted.

NXC-201 has demonstrated safety and elicited hematologic and organ responses in patients with relapsed/refractory amyloid light chain amyloidosis, including frail patients.

Samer A. Srour, MB, ChB, MS, discusses the design of ALLO-316, an agent investigated in the phase 2 TRAVERSE trial for patients with renal cell carcinoma.

Yi Lin MD, PhD, discusses the impact of the phase 1b/2 CARTITUDE-1 study of ciltacabtagene autoleucel for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

HEMO-CAR-T is an autologous chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy being developed against an acute myeloid leukemia target.

In an interview with Targeted Oncology, Frederick Locke, MD, discussed the mechanism of action of 2 allogeneic CD19-directed CAR T-cell products and next steps for their evaluation for the treatment of patients with LBCL.

Yi Lin MD, PhD, discusses long-term follow-up results from the CARTITUDE-1 study, which investigated ciltacabtagene autoleucel for the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Widespread access to CAR T-cell therapy remains a problem, and quite a few challenges have arisen in regards to optimizing outcomes for CAR T-cell therapy in patients with hematologic malignancies and solid tumors.

For the first time ever, patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma can receive the experimental chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, CLN-978, in a clinical trial.

Though chimeric antigen receptor T cells are showing promise in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, challenges, including those related to manufacture, those that are patient/disease specific, and those regarding risk mitigation, remain a struggle.

During an interview with Targeted Oncology, Lindsey S. Treviño, PhD, discussed how racial and socioeconomic disparities impact access to CAR T-cell therapy, clinical trials, and more.

Results from 2 trials of lisocabtagene maraleucel presented at ICML 2023 demonstrated efficacy and tolerability in patients with follicular lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma.

Ciltacabtagene autoleucel was recently said to be a new standard-of-care for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Soon, it may be an FDA-approved therapy.

CLDN6-directed CAR T-cell therapy used with or without a CLDN6-encoding mRNA vaccine continues to show promise in advanced solid tumors.

In a real-world population of patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, modest efficacy was demonstrated with brexucabtagene autoleucel.

A phase 1 study is exploring gamma delta T-cell therapy for the first time in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies.

A comprehensive analysis of the phase 1 LEGEND-2 study shows a correlation between cytokine release syndrome and coagulation disorders inpatient with multiple myeloma treated with CAR T cells.

Retrospective research suggests that low skeletal muscle mass at baseline may negatively impact outcomes in patients receiving chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.

Data on SC-DARIC33 reinforce the potential of the agent as a new T-cell therapy approach for patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

A study of patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has showed that continuous administration of PD-1 inhibitors as a maintenance treatment may be feasible to maintain the efficacy of anti-CD19-CAR T cells.

Researchers are working to optimize the outcomes associated with CAR T-cell therapy, focusing on unique combinations that may enhance T-cell fitness, improving tumor eradication and treatment outcomes.

Complete remission was achieved in 99% patients with refractory leukemia or hematologic relapse when treated with CD19- and CD22-chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in a phase 2 trial.

Omidubicel showed encouraging clinical benefit in a phase 3 study vs standard myeloablative umbilical cord blood in patients with blood cancers in need of an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. Now, the FDA has approved the agent for this indication.
