Associação Brasileira de Hematologia, Hemoterapia e Terapia Celular Consensus on genetically modified cells. II: CAR-T cell therapy for patients with CD19+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia
ABSTRACT Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy is a novel therapeutic modality for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with robust outcomes in patients with refractory or relapsed disease. At the same time, CAR-T cell therapy is associated with unique and potentially fatal toxicities, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurological toxicities (ICANS). This manuscript aims to provide a consensus of specialists in the fields of Hema- tology Oncology and Cellular Therapy to make recommendations on the current scenario of the use of CAR-T cells in patients with ALL.
