ABSTRACT

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are a new class of anti-cancer therapy that involves manipulating autologous or allogeneic T cells to express a CAR directed against a membrane antigen. In Europe, tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah™) has marketing authorization for the treatment of relapsed / refractory acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children and young adults, in addition to the treatment of relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL); the marketing authorization for axicabtagene ciloleucel (Yescarta™) is for the treatment of relapsed / refractory high-grade B-cell lymphoma and for the treatment of primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma. Both cell products are genetically modified autologous T cells directed against CD19. These recommendations, drawn up by a working group of the Francophone Society of Bo ne Marrow transplantation and cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) relate to the management of patients and the supply chain: medium-term complications, in particular cytopenias and B-cell aplasia, nursing and psychological supportive care. In another work, we will address long-term monitoring, post-marketing authorization pharmacovigilance and issues relating to JACIE and regulatory authorities. These recommendations are not prescriptive; their aim is to provide guidelines for the use of this new therapeutic approach. The purpose of this workshop is to outline the organizational aspects of this new therapeutic approach.
