Abstract:
Lisocabtagene maraleucel (liso-cel) is one of the three US FDA-approved chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapies for the treatment of relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). TRANSCEND is the landmark trial that led to the approval of liso-cel in the third-line setting for R/R diffuse LBCL, primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma grade 3B and transformed lymphoma. The TRANSFORM and PILOT studies evaluated the use of liso-cel in the second-line treatment of R/R LBCL. This review details the structure and manufacturing process of liso-cel that make it distinct from other approved chimeric antigen receptor constructs, outlines results from landmark trials of liso-cel in LBCL and discusses liso-cel toxicity.

However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
