The approval of tisagenlecleucel and axicabtagene ciloleucel represents a breakthrough in the field of immune and cellular therapy for hematologic malignancies. These anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor-T cells (CAR) proved to be highly effective in the treatment of relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and specific histologic subtypes of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas. This expert review aims to summarize the current available research evidence in this field, with a special focus on the different challenges faced by treating physicians, and we also provide future perspectives.

Introduction: The approval of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies for the treatment of B cell malignancies has fueled the development of numerous cell therapies. However, these cell therapies are complex and costly, and unlike in hematological malignancies, outcomes with most T cell therapies in solid tumors have been disappointing. Here, we present a novel approach to directly program myeloid cells by administering novel TROP2 CAR mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs).

Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cells have shown their potential in hematological malignancies and the treatment of solid tumors, especially in metastases. However, CAR T-cell therapy may carry risks of inducing severe adverse effects, which are recognized as immune-related adverse events. Here, we report two cases of severe colitis presented with refractory bloody diarrhea, which were induced by carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-directed CAR T therapy in the treatment of metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma.

CAR-T cell therapy, a cutting-edge cellular immunotherapy with demonstrated efficacy in treating hematologic malignancies, also exhibits significant promise for addressing autoimmune diseases. This innovative therapeutic approach holds promise for achieving long-term remission in autoimmune diseases, potentially offering significant benefits to affected patients. Current targets under investigation for the treatment of these conditions include CD19, CD20, and BCMA, among others.

Background: Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel), a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, has significantly improved clinical outcomes in adult patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). However, few studies have examined patient-reported outcomes (PROs) or neurocognitive performance in patients treated with axi-cel. Moreover, no longitudinal PRO study has reported on patients treated with axi-cel as standard of care in the United States, to our knowledge.
