Addressing Toxicities in CAR T-Cell Therapy
Panelists discuss future directions and unmet needs for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) as well as risk factors that may predict higher likelihoods of severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell–associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) in patients undergoing treatment.
