Results of a phase 1/2 trial show the feasibility of an approach targeting CLL1 in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

CancerNetwork® sat down with Larry Anderson, MD, PhD, at the 2021 ASCO Annual Meeting to talk about updated data from the KarMMa trial of CAR T-cell therapy idecabtagene vicleucel to treat patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Ciltacabtagene autoleucel elicited a response in nearly all patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma previously treated with 1 to 3 prior treatments.

Results of the phase 2 SPEARHEAD-1 trial showed a high overall response rate with afamitresgene autoleucel in advanced synovial sarcoma or myxoid/round cell liposarcoma.

A single infusion of KTE-X19, a CAR T-cell therapy, demonstrated robust and durable responses in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Idecabtagene vicleucel elicited a median overall survival of 24.8 months with a 51% event-free rate at 24 months in patients with heavily pretreated, relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
