Cellular Immunotherapy for Hematologic Malignancies: Beyond Bone Marrow Transplantation.
Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation 2018 March
Immunotherapy has changed treatment practices for many hematologic malignancies. Even in the current era of targeted therapy, chemotherapy remains the backbone of treatment for many hematologic malignancies, especially in acute leukemias, where relapse remains the major cause of mortality. Application of novel immunotherapies in hematology attempts to harness the killing power of the immune system against leukemia and lymphoma. Cellular immunotherapy is evolving rapidly for high-risk hematologic disorders. Recent advances include chimeric antigen-receptor T cells, mesenchymal stromal/stem cells, dendritic cell tumor vaccines, cytokine-induced killer cells, and virus-specific T cells. The advantages of nontransplantation cellular immunotherapy include suitability for patients for whom transplantation has failed or is contraindicated, and a potentially less-toxic treatment alternative to transplantation for relapsed/refractory patients. This review examines those emerging cellular immunotherapies that are changing treatment paradigms for patients with hematologic malignancies.
