Background: Relapsed and refractory Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) can be successfully treated with axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel), a CD19-directed autologous chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy. Diagnostic image-based features could help identify the patients who would clinically respond to this advanced immunotherapy.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to establish a radiomic image feature-based signature derived from positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), including metabolic tumor burden, which can predict a durable response to CAR-T therapy in refractory/relapsed DLBCL.

Introduction: CAR T-cell therapy is highly effective, but also associated with unique toxicities. Because of the origin of T cells in patients who previously underwent allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT), graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in the post-CAR T-cell setting poses a relevant concern but is only scarcely studied. Potential risk factors and mitigation strategies (from CAR T-cell modifications to clinical management) are yet to be determined.

Autologous chimeric antigen receptor-modified T-cell therapy (CAR-T) has revolutionized treatment paradigms across multiple lymphoid malignancies, including relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). The introduction of the CD19-directed CAR-T product brexucabtagene autoleucel (brexu-cel; Tecartus) in October 2021 made this treatment approach available for the first time for adults with R/R B-ALL, a historically challenging clinical entity to treat. In this review, we will discuss the pivotal clinical trial data from the ZUMA-3 study that led to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of brexu-cel, including clinical outcomes and key toxicity data (most importantly, the incidence and severity of cytokine release syndrome and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome).

Background: CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy (CAR-T therapy) has revolutionized the treatment of hematologic malignancies. As these cells target CD19 receptors on B cells, there is the potential for B-cell aplasia and hypogammaglobulinemia. Data on the degree and clinical significance of hypogammaglobulinemia are sparse.

We report the case of long-term persisting rheumatoid arthritis (RA), treated with CD20-CD19 CAR-T when it became associated with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), resulting in a sustained drug-free remission of the preceding RA, as well as of the subsequent DLBCL that formed the indication of the CAR-T therapy using zamtocabtagene autoleucel, with a 1-year follow-up. According to our best knowledge, this is the first published clinical case report of long-term persisting RA treated with CAR-T cell therapy.
