CD20 CAR-T cell therapy(Shanghai Longyao Biotech Co., Ltd.)

Aim: The aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). Materials & methods: A meta-analysis was conducted using eligible clinical trials, which were obtained from electronic medical literature databases. Results: A total of 24 clinical trials with 590 patients were included. The best overall response rate was 66% and complete remission rate was 46%. The incidence rates of cytokine-release syndrome and neurotoxicity (grade ≥ 3) were 9 and 5%, respectively. The various clinical factors were analyzed. Autogenic CAR-T cell may lead to improved efficacy than allogeneic CAR-T cell. CD20 CAR-T cell may show increased efficacy than CD19 CAR-T cell. Conclusion: CAR-T immunotherapy has remarkable efficacy and low toxicity in relapsed/refractory B-NHL.
