多发性骨髓瘤 CAR-T 细胞治疗的毒性

BACKGROUND: Idecabtagene vicleucel (ide-cel) and ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) are novel chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapies targeting B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA), and both have recently gained approval by the US Food Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). SUMMARY: These therapies offer unprecedented responses in RRMM but present new challenges including cytokine release syndrome (CRS), immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), non-ICANS neurotoxicity, cytopenias, infections, and hypogammaglobulinemia. KEY MESSAGES: In the evolving CAR-T landscape, a primary objective is to develop innovative strategies for managing associated toxicities. Through meticulous exploration of underlying mechanisms and tailored interventions, we aim to enhance safety and enable broader outpatient utilization. Refinement of protocols, biomarker identification, and robust monitoring are imperative for sustained efficacy. This comprehensive approach guarantees the continuous advancement and optimization of CAR-T therapy.
