Patients treated with liso-cel had a probability of continued response at 2-years of 49.5%.

The director of the hemostasis and thrombosis program at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles discussed the ATLAS-INH study of fitusiran.

The professor from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center discussed long-term follow-up analysis of the phase 2 ZUMA-5 trial.

Safety and the recommended dose of CYAD-211 and the lymphodepletion regimen served as the primary end point of the study.

Patients treated with cilta-cel had a 76% reduction in the risk of death compared to patients treated with physician's choice of treatment.

The vice chair, Blood and Marrow Transplant and Cellular Immunotherapy Program, and co-leader, Immuno-Oncology, Moffitt Cancer Center, discussed the results of the phase 3 ZUMA-7 trial.

AJ Joshi, MD, chief medical officer, Atara Biotherapeutics, discussed safety findings from the phase 3 ALLELE study.

Annualized bleeding rate, spontaneous bleeding, and joint bleeding rates were all reduced in patients dosed with fitusiran compared to those receiving on-demand treatment.

Over half of patients in the fitusiran arm of the ATLAS-INH study had 0 treated bleeding events.

The findings, which were simultaneously reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, support beti-cel as a potentially curative, one-time treatment option for these patients.

ADI-001 does not require genetic engineering to remove TCRs to avoid GvHD, making them ideal for an off-the-shelf cell therapy.

Patients treated with the CAR T-cell therapy had an over 4-fold increase in event-free survival.

All evaluable treated participants experienced a reduction in vaso-occlusive events after treatment with ARU-1801.

AJ Joshi, MD, chief medical officer, Atara Biotherapeutics, discussed the advantages of tab-cel over other T-cell therapies.

AJ Joshi, MD, chief medical officer, Atara Biotherapeutics, discussed data from the ALLELE study to be presented at ASH 2021.

The FDA granted a Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy designation to the allogeneic chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy as a potential treatment for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

The FDA approval of brexucabtagene autoleucel established CAR T-cell therapy as a treatment option for patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma.

Sattva Neelapu, MD, discusses emerging CAR T-cell therapies for patients with relapsed/refractory mantle cell lymphoma.

The goal of the CARTITUDE-1 study was to evaluate the use of ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel; JNJ-68284528) chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

December 21, 2020 - A rolling submission of the biologics license application for the BCMA-directed CAR T-cell product ciltacabtagene autoleucel for use in adults with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma has been initiated to the FDA.

What started out as a journey to better understand regulatory T cells has now led to an intriguing approach with an investigational cell therapy designed to prevent the risk of graft-versus-host disease and to improve relapse-free survival rates in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

The lymphoma expert spoke about the research being presented at the 2020 ASH Annual Meeting and what he believes has the potential to be most influential for treating this patient population.

An off-the-shelf CAR T-cell therapy that targets B-cell maturation antigen, ALLO-715, elicited responses in heavily pretreated patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma in early findings from a first-in-human study presented at the 2020 ASH Meeting.

Treatment with the BCMA-targeted CAR T-cell therapy idecabtagene vicleucel was found to yield clinically meaningful improvements in the quality-of-life of triple-class exposed patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.

December 6, 2020 - Odronextamab, is a novel CD20xCD3 bispecific antibody, continues to show intriguing antitumor activity and an acceptable safety profile in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, including those who have previously received chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.
