The OncLive CAR T-cell therapy condition center page is a comprehensive resource for clinical news and expert insights on FDA-approved and investigational CAR T-cell products in hematologic malignancies, specifically acute lymphoblastic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. CAR T-cell research in solid tumors is also under exploration. This page features news articles, interviews in written and video format, and podcasts that focus on updates with CAR T-cell therapy and the ongoing research with this type of treatment.

May 5th 2017John P. Leonard, MD, associate dean of Clinical Research, interim chair of the Department of Medicine, Weill Cornell Medical College, Weill Cornell Medicine/NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, discusses the emergence and potential of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy across hematologic malignancies.
Dr. Papa on the Impact of CAR T Cell Trial in Head and Neck Cancer
April 27th 2017Sophie Papa, PhD, MBBS, MRCP, medical oncologist, Clinical Academic Group, Department of Research Oncology, King’s College London, discusses the impact of a recent study of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
Findings Support Early Use of CD19 CAR T-Cell Therapy in Relapsed B-cell ALL
April 21st 2017Low disease burden prior to treatment with CD19-specific chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy appears to be a positive prognostic factor for long-term survival outcomes of patients with relapsed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
CAR T Cell Functionality Correlates With Outcomes, Offering a Biomarker for Response
The flexibility of CAR T cells to perform multiple functions was associated with the level of clinical activity elicited for patients with advanced non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, according to a retrospective analysis presented at the 2017 AACR Annual Meeting.
CAR T-Cell Response Rate Tops 80% in NHL Trial
Results of a phase II trial showed that more than 80% of patients with refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma achieved objective responses to treatment with the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy axicabtagene ciloleucel.
FDA Grants Priority Review to CTL019 for ALL
The FDA has granted a priority review designation to tisagenlecleucel-T as a treamtnet for pediatric and young adult patients with relapsed and refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, making it the first CAR T-cell therapy to enter regulatory review.
Juno Accelerates Development of JCAR017, Halts JCAR015
Juno therapeutics has shifted its focus toward the development of JCAR017 for relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma after a series of toxicity-related setbacks culminated in the need to halt the development of JCAR015.
Nursing Coordination Invaluable to Successful Delivery of CAR T Therapy
Proper care coordination and patient education are essential to the success of delivering chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, particularly in preparing patients for potential adverse events.
