Abstract
The emergence of cell and gene therapies has dramatically changed the treatment paradigm in oncology and other therapeutic areas. Kymriah® (tisagenlecleucel), a CD19-directed genetically modified autologous T-cell immunotherapy, is currently approved in major markets for the treatment of relapsed/refractory (r/r) pediatric and young adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia, r/r diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and r/r follicular lymphoma. This article presents a high-level overview of the clinical development journey of tisagenlecleucel, including its efficacy outcomes and safety considerations.
期刊介绍:
(formerly Human Vaccines; issn 1554-8619)
Vaccine research and development is extending its reach beyond the prevention of bacterial or viral diseases. There are experimental vaccines for immunotherapeutic purposes and for applications outside of infectious diseases, in diverse fields such as cancer, autoimmunity, allergy, Alzheimer’s and addiction. Many of these vaccines and immunotherapeutics should become available in the next two decades, with consequent benefit for human health. Continued advancement in this field will benefit from a forum that can (A) help to promote interest by keeping investigators updated, and (B) enable an exchange of ideas regarding the latest progress in the many topics pertaining to vaccines and immunotherapeutics.
Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics provides such a forum. It is published monthly in a format that is accessible to a wide international audience in the academic, industrial and public sectors.
