Overview of approved CAR-T therapies, ongoing clinical trials, and its impact on clinical practice.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, we have seen rapid expansion of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapies in multiple malignancies. CAR-T therapy has profoundly altered the treatment landscape of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and multiple myeloma. Currently available CD19 and B-cell maturation antigen-directed CAR-T therapies have shown high overall response rate and durable remissions in patients who have failed standard therapies. Multiple studies are underway exploring the role of CAR-T-cell therapy as earlier line of treatment. In high-grade B-cell lymphoma, CD19 CAR-T therapy may replace autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation as second line therapy in near future. CAR-T-cell therapy targeting novel tumor-associated antigens will help expand utility of thi
