Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy has become a commercially available treatment option for relapsed or refractory (r/r) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with two or more lines of prior therapies, and recently for high-risk r/r DLBCL with one prior line of therapy. The successful development of CAR T-cell therapy for multiple relapsed DLBCL has led to a boom in subsequent trials that investigated its utility in patients with other r/r B-cell lymphoma subtypes. However, CAR T-cell therapy is a multistep process that includes leukapheresis and manipulation which take several weeks. Therefore, patients with rapidly progressing or bulky disease may not be able to complete the therapeutic regimen involving CAR T-cell products. This raises the question of the generalizability of the results of pivotal studies to the entire population. In this review, we summarize the development of CAR-T cell therapy for B-cell lymphoma and discuss strategies to further improve the clinical outcomes of this treatment.
