Expert Perspectives & Insights into CAR T-cell Therapy in Relapsed / Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia   - Episode 16

Expert Perspectives in Monitoring and Management Strategies for CRS, ICANS, and Other Long-Term Toxicities Associated with CAR T-cell Therapy

, , , ,

The panel explores laboratory parameters routinely monitored for CRS and ICANS, including monitoring frequency, and discusses prophylactic measures and safety management strategies employed to address these complications in CAR-T therapy.

Video content above is prompted by the following:

  • What labs do you routinely monitor for CRS and ICANs – and how frequently?
  • What type of prophylaxis and/or safety management are you applying to address CRS and ICANs?
  • Does your institution have a standard operating procedure or guideline?
    • What percentage of your patients have required either steroids, tocilizumab, and/or anakinra for CAR-related toxicities?
  • What are some other pertinent acute and long-term toxicities of CAR T-cell therapy to monitor for?
  • Do you utilize antimicrobial prophylaxis, growth factor agents and IV immunoglobulin in your practice?
  • When weighing treatment options, how heavily is CAR-T AE profile considered?
    • Does the safety profile of obe-cel change your perspective of using CAR-T? If so, how may it potentially affect your decision making?
