Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in the Era of Engineered Cell Therapy.
Current Hematologic Malignancy Reports 2018 December
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cellular therapy using T cells modified to express chimeric antigen receptors (CAR-T cells) has had striking success in patients that have failed previous treatment for CD19+ B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Curative therapy for this group of diseases has previously been limited to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation HCT (alloHCT). The recent results of CAR-T cell therapy raise the question of how best to integrate CAR-T cell therapy and alloHCT in the care of these patients.
RECENT FINDINGS: Within the past 2 years, results from larger trials and increased follow-up of patients treated with CD19 CAR-T cell therapy suggest that some may achieve durable remission without transplant. The balance of efficacy and toxicity for CAR-T cell therapy and alloHCT vary by disease type, disease status at the time of treatment, patient characteristics, and the specific therapy employed. There are early signals that subsequent transplantation of patients who have achieved remission with CAR-T may be a potentially viable (though expensive) strategy.
