Safety Considerations for CAR T-Cell Therapy in R/R DLBCL
Author(s)Rita Assi, MD , Girish Kunapareddy, MD
Experts discuss strategies for monitoring and managing cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity, the influence of key takeaways from cohorts 4 and 6 of the ZUMA-1 trial on their practice, and how post- chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR T) follow-up care is managed between academic and community settings.

Here is your cheat sheet to all therapeutic options that were cleared by the FDA in September 2026 spanning tumor types.

The FDA approved tucatinib plus trastuzumab and pertuzumab as maintenance for advanced HER2-positive breast cancer after induction.

The c-Met–directed ADC was designated for EGFR wild-type nonsquamous NSCLC after platinum chemotherapy and anti–PD-(L)1 therapy.

Dana-Farber’s Xin Gu, PhD, and Nicholas Polizzi, PhD, received NIH New Innovator Awards for high-risk, high-reward research.

The c-Met–directed ADC-based combination was designated for mCRC previously treated with fluoropyrimidine, irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and anti-VEGF therapy.

Pooled data from 3 randomized trials showed ropeginterferon alfa-2b improved responses vs phlebotomy alone but not vs hydroxyurea in polycythemia vera.
