This case report presents the management of a 25-year-old woman with refractory hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) secondary to adult-onset Still's disease. Despite initial treatment with corticosteroids and biologic therapies, including anakinra and tocilizumab, her condition continued to deteriorate, necessitating intensive care unit admission. Following multidisciplinary consultation, ruxolitinib therapy, a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor targeting hyperinflammation, was initiated.

Background: This study aimed to identify specific biomarkers in oncology patients experiencing immune-related cytokine release syndrome (irCRS)-like symptoms during immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy, including severe cases like hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (irHLH), and to distinguish these from sepsis. A secondary objective was to retrospectively analyze the efficacy of tocilizumab (TCZ) in treating corticosteroid (CS)-refractory high-grade irCRS.
Patients And Methods: A cohort of 35 patients presenting with irCRS-like symptoms was studied, including 9 with irHLH-like manifestations and 8 with sepsis.

B-cell maturation antigen(BCMA)-directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T-cell therapy has significantly improved the treatment of relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM). Nevertheless, the uncommon phenomenon of biphasic CAR-T cell expansion in vivo and its related severe toxicities have not been methodically described and studied. Herein, we report a case of patients with MM who experienced two CAR-T cell expansion peaks and subsequently developed multiple severe toxicities following BCMA CAR-T cell infusion.
