VIDEO: CAR T-cell therapy made in 1 day had good safety, efficacy in phase 1 trial
SAN DIEGO — A new chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy option made in less than a day may be a new option for patients with relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, according to research presented at ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition.
Paolo Caimi, MD, a physician and clinical investigator at Cleveland Clinic, spoke with Healio about results from a phase 1 trial assessing the use of UF-Kure19 in 10 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which found that most patients had “good tolerance” to treatment.
“In terms of response, most patients had a response — eight out of 10 patients responded — with a good durability of responses on the patients that achieved complete remission,” he said.
