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.

Background: The management of relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has evolved significantly. Initially, treatment options were limited to palliative care, salvage chemotherapy, and second HSCT. Currently, the focus has shifted to innovative immunotherapies, particularly CAR T-cell therapy.

Despite increasing utilization of CAR T-cell therapy, data are lacking regarding long term follow up and risk of infectious complications after the early period following CAR T-cell infusion. In this study, we sought to compare epidemiology and risk factors for early (≤ 3 months) and late (3 months to 1 year) infections. Data were retrospectively collected at six time points: pre-CAR T, day of infusion, and at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months post CAR-T infusion for all consecutive adult patients treated at our institution.

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy has demonstrated both efficacy and safety in relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). However, its applicability in individuals with liver cirrhosis remains largely unexplored due to the potential for unpredictable complications. Here, we report three cases (P1, P2, and P3) of relapsed/refractory DLBCL with HBV-related cirrhosis treated with CAR-T cell infusion.
