Recent Advances in CAR-T Cell Therapy for Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Adoptive cellular immunotherapy with anti CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell has changed the treatment landscape in relapsed/refractory B cell lymphomas. They have emerged as effective therapy in patients with multiple relapsed/refractory disease, capable of sustaining durable remissions. Two CAR-T cell products (axicabtagene ciloleucel and tisagenlecleucel) are currently approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. A third anti CD19 CAR-T cell, lisocabtagene ciloleucel is currently being evaluated in large clinical trials and may also be United States Food and Drug Administration-approved soon.
