ASH 2023 | The impact of pre-existing autoimmune disease on safety & efficacy of CAR-T for non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Charles Gaulin, MBBS, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, comments on a retrospective analysis assessing the impact of pre-existing autoimmune disease (AID) on the safety and efficacy of CAR T-cell therapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Although patients with AID in this analysis were not found to have poorer outcomes following CAR-T than those without an AID, Dr Gaulin highlights that the most common AID in this analysis was hypothyroidism and that severe AIDs such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were represented by very small sample sizes. This interview took place at the 65th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
