Preparing for CAR T cell therapy: patient selection, bridging therapies and lymphodepletion
2022
Overview
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have emerged as a potent therapeutic approach for patients with certain haematological cancers, with multiple CAR T cell products currently approved by the FDA for those with relapsed and/or refractory B cell malignancies. However, in order to derive the desired level of effectiveness, patients need to successfully receive the CAR T cell infusion in a timely fashion. This process entails apheresis of the patient’s T cells, followed by CAR T cell manufacture. While awaiting infusion at an authorized treatment centre, patients may receive interim disease-directed therapy. Most patients will also receive a course of pre-CAR T cell lymphodepletion, which has emerged as an important factor in enabling durable responses. The time between apheresis and CAR T cell infusion is often not a simple journey, with each milestone being a critical step that can have important downstream consequences for the ability to receive the infusion and the strength of clinical responses. In this Review, we provide a summary of the many considerations for preparing patients with B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma or acute lymphoblastic leukaemia for CAR T cell therapy, and outline current limitations and areas for future research.Chimeric antigen receptor T cells have revolutionized the treatment of patients with certain haematological malignancies. Nonetheless, an optimal approach to lymphodepleting chemotherapy and/or bridging therapies has yet to be defined in patients receiving these agents. In this Review, the authors describe the various lymphodepletion and/or bridging therapy strategies used, and highlight the need for prospective comparisons in order to determine the safest and most effective approach.
