Relative hypercoagulation induced by suppressed fibrinolysis after tisagenlecleucel infusion in malignant lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy has facilitated progress in treatment of refractory/relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). A well-known adverse event after CAR-T therapy is cytokine release syndrome(CRS). However, the etiology and pathophysiology of CRS-related coagulopathy remain unknown. Therefore, we conducted a prospective cohort study to comprehensively analyze coagulation/ fibrinolysis parameters present in peripheral blood of adult DLBCL patients treated with tisagenlecleucel in a single institution. Samples were collected from 25 patients at 3 time points: before lymphocyte-depletion chemotherapy and on days 3 and 13 after CAR-T infusion. After infusion, all patients except 1 experienced CRS, and 13 required the administration of tocilizumab. A s
