Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease affecting various organs and characterized by profound immune disturbances. Monoclonal antibodies such as anifrolumab, targeting type I interferon, and belimumab, targeting a cytokine that activates B-cells and plasmocytes, have shown efficacy in SLE. Voclosporine, a novel calcineurin inhibitor, improves renal outcomes when combined with standard immunosuppression in lupus nephritis.

The Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 has rapidly become the dominant strain worldwide due to its high transmissibility, although it appears to be less pathogenic than previous strains. However, individuals with hematological malignancy (HM) and COVID-19 remain susceptible to severe infection and mortality, especially those with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and those undergoing chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) treatment. Hematologists should thoroughly assess the severity of the patient's hematological disease and the potential risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection before initiating chemotherapy or immunosuppressive treatment.

The approval of tisagenlecleucel in B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemias in 2017 in the USA and in 2018 in Europe not only opened new hopes but forced to rethink the hospital organizations around this innovation. Indeed, if these treatments are very effective in the short term, the complex logistics required imply high quality inter-center and intra-center collaboration. Hematology, intensive care unit, apheresis, neurology, cell therapy and biology laboratories, and radiology services must therefore act in a coordinated manner.
