Miguel-Angel Perales, MD, deputy chief, Adult Bone Marrow Transplant Service, director, Adult Bone Marrow Transplantation Fellowship Program, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, discusses the remaining questions with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in hematologic malignancies.

Perales explains that one of the remaining questions with this therapy is regarding multiple drugs being approved in the same indication.
