Bispecific Antibodies for Lymphoid Malignancy Treatment.

Backgroud: The introduction of highly active immunotherapies has changed the outcome of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (B-NHLs) in the last two decades. Since then, important progress has been shown using newer and more active immunotherapies, including chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T), conjugated monoclonal antibodies, and bispecific antobodies, which currently plays a significant role in the treatment of diffuse large B-cell (DLBCL), follicular (FL), and mantle cell (MCL) lymphoma.

Purpose: In this review, we provide an updated overview of recently completed and ongoing BsAb trials in patients with relapsed/refractory(R/R) B-NHL and Hodgkin's lymphoma, including single-agent results, emerging combinations, safety data, and novel constructs.

Brexucabtagene autoleucel in-vivo expansion and BTKi refractoriness have a negative influence on progression-free survival in mantle cell lymphoma: Results from CART-SIE study.

Brexucabtagene autoleucel (brexu-cel) has revolutionized the treatment of patients affected by mantle cell lymphomas. In this prospective, observational multicentre study, we evaluated 106 patients, with longitudinal brexu-cel kinetics in peripheral blood monitored in 61 of them. Clinical outcomes and toxicities are consistent with previous real-world evidence studies.

Real life clinical outcomes of relapsed/refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma in the rituximab era: The STRIDER study.

Background: Relapse and refractory (R/R) rates after first-line R-CHOP in diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCL) are ~40% and ~15% respectively.

Aims: We conducted a retrospective real-world analysis aimed at evaluating clinical outcomes of R/R DLBCL patients.

Material And Methods: Overall, 403 consecutive DLBCL patients treated in two large hematological centers in Torino, Italy were reviewed.

A Multicenter Real-life Prospective Study of Axicabtagene Ciloleucel versus Tisagenlecleucel Toxicity and Outcomes in Large B-cell Lymphomas.

This real-world prospective observational study across 21 Italian centers (CART-SIE) compares axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) and tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) outcomes in 485 patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma with baseline characteristics matched by stabilized inverse propensity score weighting. Axi-cel versus tisa-cel had higher all-grade cytokine release syndrome (78.6% vs.
