Abstract:
Three CD19 CAR-T cells (Yescarta®, Kymriah® and Breyanzi®), have been approved in relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphomas (DLBCL) after at least two previous lines of therapy. These immunotherapies have transformed the prognosis of these lymphomas, which can't be cured by conventional treatments. Long-term updates of registration studies as well as the first real-life data allow a better knowledge of the efficacy of these emerging therapies, their toxicity and their resistance mechanisms. These advances have also led to consider the earlier use of CAR-T cells in the therapeutic strategy and to extend it to other B lymphomas such as mantle cell and indolent lymphomas. Indeed, Yescarta® and Tecartus® have been recently approved in those malignancies, Furthermore, other strategies are being investigated to develop new CAR-T cells to target Hodgkin's lymphomas and T-cell lymphomas, although data in these settings still have to be completed. In this article, we review the latest data on the use of CAR-T cells in lymphomas.
