Lisocabtagene Maraleucel for the treatment of B-cell lymphoma.

: Lisocabtagene Maraleucel (Liso-cel) is a second-generation Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy product targeting CD19. It is currently being evaluated for B-cell lymphomas with pivotal trials conducted in Aggressive B-cell Lymphomas To prepare this article reviewing preclinical and clinical data studying Liso-cel, we performed a Pubmed search using the terms 'JCAR017' and 'Lisocabtagene maraleucel'. Pre-clinical work done with Liso-cel demonstrate the synergistic activity of CD4 + T-cells and CD8+ central memory T-cells (TCM) at a predefined ratio of 1:1. The trial, TRANSCEND NHL001 in aggressive B-cell lymphoma, confirms robust antitumor activity while demonstrating manageable toxicity profile. There are inherent differences amongst the three CD19 directed CAR-T products. This could explain the differences in efficacy and safety profiles of the products. In the absence of randomized data, it would be scientifically unsound to prioritize one product over another. Nevertheless, when aiming to balance efficacy and safety, current prospective data indicate that Liso-cel is well positioned with impressive response rates.
