This VJHemOnc podcast features a roundtable discussion from the 8th International Workshop on CAR-T and Bispecifics (iwCAR-T) 2026 on the evolving role of dual-targeting CAR T-cell therapies in large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). Gloria Iacoboni, MD, PhD, Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology, Barcelona, Spain, is joined by Saurabh Dahiya, MD, FACP, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA, Nirav Niranjan Shah, MD, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI, Krish Patel, MD, Sarah Cannon Research Institute, Nashville, TN, and Akil Merchant, MD, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA, to discuss recent trial updates evaluating dual-targeting CAR constructs in LBCL.

The discussion highlights efficacy and safety outcomes, as well as key challenges in clinical practice, including rapid manufacturing, the role of bridging therapy, toxicity management, and optimizing patient selection. The panel also reflects on the importance of interpreting CAR T-cell trial results within the context of differing study designs and inclusion criteria.
