Efficacy and safety of CD19-directed CAR-T cell therapies in patients with relapsed/refractory aggressive B-cell lymphomas: Observations from the JULIET, ZUMA-1, and TRANSCEND trials.

ABSTRACT: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapies have improved the outcome for many patients with relapsed or refractory aggressive B-cell lymphomas. In 2017, axicabtagene ciloleucel and soon after tisagenlecleucel became the first approved CAR-T cell products for patients with high-grade B-cell lymphomas or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who are relapsed or refractory to ≥ 2 prior lines of therapy; lisocabtagene maraleucel was approved in 2021. Safety and efficacy outcomes from the pivotal trials of each CAR-T cell therapy have been reported. Despite addressing a common unmet need in the large B-cell lymphoma population and utilizing similar CAR technologies, there are differences between CAR-T cell products in manufacturing, pivotal clinical trial designs, and data reporting.
