Yan Leyfman: New Data – CAR-T Outcomes in Extranodal DLBCL 

Yan Leyfman, Co-founder and Executive Director of MedNews Week, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“New Data: CAR-T Outcomes in Extranodal DLBCL 
Extranodal (EN) DLBCL has long been linked to worse survival, but how do these patients fare after CAR-T therapy? A new multi-center study sheds light:
  •  218 patients with EN DLBCL treated with CAR-T in the relapsed/refractory setting
  •  Most common EN sites: Skin/soft tissue (25%), Bone (22%), Lung (17%)
  •  Overall Response Rate (ORR): 62% | Complete Response Rate (CRR): 40%
  •  Median PFS: 4 months | Median OS: 25.7 months
  •  High-risk factors for worse OS: ≥3 prior therapy lines, bulky disease, liver/pancreas involvement
CRS and ICANS were consistent with known CAR-T safety profiles. Future studies are needed to optimize CAR-T outcomes in high-risk EN DLBCL subgroups, especially those with hepatobiliary involvement.”
