We analyzed access barriers to anti-CD19+ chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CARTs) for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) within a community-based transplant and cell therapy network registry. A total of 357 intended recipients for approved anti-CD19+ CARTs were identified between 2018 to 2022. The median age at referral was 61 years; referral years were 2018 (4%), 2019 (14%), 2020 (18%), 2021 (26%), and 2022 (38%).

The treatment setting influences acute myeloid leukemia (AML) outcomes. Most cancer patients receive care in the community, yet few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of clinical programs outside of academic or National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated cancer centers. This was a multi-level, case-controlled study of real-world outcomes for initial AML treatment in a community-based network for 1,391 patients with AML between 2011 and 2018.

The need for prospective randomized clinical trials investigating novel graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prevention strategies that include other clinical outcomes impacted by GVHD has been highlighted as a priority for the field of hematopoietic cell transplantation. A recently completed study through the Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network (BMT CTN 1301) comparing CD34 selection and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide with tacrolimus/methotrexate (Tac/MTX) for GVHD prevention demonstrated no significant differences in the primary endpoint of chronic GVHD relapse-free survival among the 3 approaches. The trial did not demonstrate a superior approach compared with Tac/MTX; however, it did highlight several challenges in determining the best and most relevant approaches to clinical trial design, particularly in the context of current and ongoing changes in real-world practices.
