SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions: Treatment Evolution of Mantle Cell Lymphoma: Navigating the Different Entities and Biological Heterogeneity of Mantle Cell Lymphoma in 2024. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA, MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2024; 24:491-505. [PMID: 38493059 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2024.02.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/18/2024] [Indexed: 03/18/2024]
Abstract
Progress in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) has led to significant improvement in outcomes of patients even in the real world (RW) setting albeit to a lesser degree. In parallel to the demonstration of benefit using combination therapy with rituximab plus high-dose cytarabine (R-AraC) as well as dose intensive therapy-autologous stem cell transplantation (DIT-ASCT) consolidation and maintenance, it became clear over the last 2 decades that MCL is a highly heterogenous disease at the molecular level, explaining differences observed in clinical behavior and response to therapy. While clinical prognostic factors and models have helped stratify patients with distinct outcomes, they failed to help guide therapy. The identification of molecular high-risk (HR) features, in particular, but not only, p53 aberrations (including mutations and deletions [del]), as well as complex karyotype (CK), has allowed to identify subsets of patients with poorer outcomes (median overall survival [OS] <2 years) regardless of conventional therapies used. The constant pattern of relapse seen in MCL has fueled sustained and productive efforts, with 7 novel agents approved in the United States (US), showing high and durable efficacy even in HR and chemo-refractory patients and likely curing a subset of patients in the relapsed or refractory (R/R) setting. Progress in diagnostics, in particular next-generation sequencing (NGS), which is accessible in routine practice nowadays, can help recognize patients with HR features, well beyond MIPI or Ki-67 prognostication, although the impact on decision making is still unclear. The era of integrating novel agents into our prior standard of care (SOC) has begun with a confirmed benefit, for example, ibrutinib (Ib) in the TRIANGLE study, defining the first new potential SOC in younger patients in over 30 years. Expanding on novel agents, either in combination, sequentially or to replace chemotherapy altogether, using biological doublets or triplets has led to a median progression-free survival (PFS) in excess of 72 months, certainly competitive with prior SOC and will continue to reshape the management of MCL patients. Achieving minimal residual disease negative (MRD-ve) status is becoming a new endpoint in MCL, and customizing maintenance and/or de-escalation/consolidation strategies is within reach, although it will require prospective, built-in MRD-based approaches, with the goal of eliminating subclinical disease and not simply delaying time to relapse. Taking into account the biological diversity of MCL is now feasible in routine clinical practice and has already helped recognize what not to do for HR patients (i.e., avoid intensive induction chemotherapy and/or ASCT for p53 mutated patients) as well as identify promising novel options. Ongoing and future work will help expand on these dedicated approaches, to further improve the management and outcomes of all MCL patients.

Brexucabtagene autoleucel for relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma in the United Kingdom: A real-world intention-to-treat analysis. Hemasphere 2024; 8:e87. [PMID: 38873532 PMCID: PMC11170269 DOI: 10.1002/hem3.87] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024] Open
Abstract
Brexucabtagene autoleucel (brexu-cel) is an autologous CD19 CAR T-cell product, approved for relapsed/refractory (r/r) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). In ZUMA-2, brexu-cel demonstrated impressive responses in patients failing ≥2 lines, including a bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, with an overall and complete response rate of 93% and 67%, respectively. Here, we report our real-world intention-to-treat (ITT) outcomes for brexu-cel in consecutive, prospectively approved patients, from 12 institutions in the United Kingdom between February 2021 and June 2023, with a focus on feasibility, efficacy, and tolerability. Of 119 approved, 104 underwent leukapheresis and 83 received a brexu-cel infusion. Progressive disease (PD) and/or manufacturing (MF) were the most common reasons for failure to reach harvest and/or infusion. For infused patients, best overall and complete response rates were 87% and 81%, respectively. At a median follow-up of 13.3 months, median progression-free survival (PFS) for infused patients was 21 months (10.1-NA) with a 6- and 12-month PFS of 82% (95% confidence interval [CI], 71-89) and 62% (95% CI, 49-73), respectively. ≥Grade 3 cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity occurred in 12% and 22%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, inferior PFS was associated with male sex, bulky disease, ECOG PS > 1 and previous MF. Cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 6%, 15%, and 25% at 6, 12, and 24 months, respectively, and mostly attributable to infection. Outcomes for infused patients in the UK are comparable to ZUMA-2 and other real-world reports. However, ITT analysis highlights a significant dropout due to PD and/or MF. NRM events warrant further attention.

Abstract
Introduction Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an incurable disease with an aggressive clinical course, and most patients eventually relapse after chemotherapy. Targeted therapies developed for relapsed/refractory MCL have been approved based on clinical trial data. However, real-world setting data are scarce and scattered. Areas Covered This systematic review aimed to collect, synthesize, and describe the characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with relapsed/refractory MCL after receiving a second or subsequent line of therapy in the real-world setting. Expert Opinion R/R MCL is clinically and biologically heterogeneous and still represents a therapeutic challenge, with high-risk and early relapsed patients remaining an unmet medical need. This systematic review is limited by the quality of the available data and the difficulty of comparing outcomes in R/R MCL due to the heterogeneity of the disease, but the results suggest that covalent BTKis should be positioned as second-line therapy, followed by CAR T-cells in BTK-i-relapsed patients. Chemo-free and combination therapies with established chemoimmunotherapy backbones in the relapsed and front-line settings have been recently developed, and front-line options are being improved to move targeted and cellular therapies to earlier lines, including front-line therapy, in elderly and younger fit patients. In the upcoming years, many new targeted agents will play an important role and will be incorporated to the routine practice as their sequence, and outcomes in unselected patients are determined.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is still a potentially curative option for B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (B-NHL) in the modern immunotherapy era. The objective of this study was to analyze long-term outcomes of patients with B-NHL who received allo-HSCT. We analyzed overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and graft versus host disease (GVHD) relapse-free survival (GRFS) in 53 patients undergoing allo-HSCT from two institutions. The median follow-up of the study was 72 months (range 29-115 months). The median number of lines of therapy before allo-HSCT was 3 (range 1-6) and twenty-eight patients (53%) had received a previous autologous transplant. The 3-year PFS, OS and GRFS were 55%, 63%, and 55%, respectively. One-year non-relapse mortality was 26%. Karnofsky Performance Scale < 90 was associated with worse OS in multivariable analysis. A non-comparative analysis of a cohort of 44 patients with similar characteristics who received chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy was done, showing a 1-year PFS and OS were 60% and 66%, respectively. Our data shows that allo-HSCT is still a useful option for treating selected patients with R/R B-NHL. Our retrospective analysis and review of the literature demonstrate that allo-HSCT can provide durable remissions in a subset of patients with R/R B-NHL.

Abstract
Cytarabine-containing chemoimmunotherapy followed by autologous transplantation and rituximab maintenance achieves durable remissions for most patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). However, patients with TP53-mutated disease have poor outcomes with standard approaches. We previously reported that allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) achieved durable remissions in MCL, however follow-up among patients with TP53-mutated disease was limited. Here we report extended follow-up of the overall cohort (n = 36) and TP53-mutated subset (n = 13) (median follow-up 10.8 and 4.2 years, respectively). Estimated overall survival was 56% at 10 years for the overall cohort and 59% at 4 years for the TP53-mutated subset. Among patients with TP53-mutated disease, no relapses occurred beyond 6 months post-transplant. Survival after post-alloSCT disease relapse was poor (median 2.1 years). These data confirm that alloSCT can be curative in MCL, including patients with TP53-mutated disease, and should be considered for earlier utilization in this subgroup for whom conventional chemoimmunotherapy is ineffective.

Abstract
Brexucabtagene autoleucel is a chimeric anti CD19 antigen receptor T-cell therapy that allows durable responses in relapsed/refractory (R/R) mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The present study compared the clinical and economic outcomes of R/R MCL patients (pre-exposed to ibrutinib and chemoimmunotherapy) treated with brexucabtagene autoleucel versus Rituximab, bendamustine, cytarabine (R-BAC) in the Italian Healthcare System. A partitioned-survival model extrapolated survival and healthcare costs of R/R MCL patients over a lifetime horizon. Discounted and quality-adjusted life expectancy (QALY) was 6.40 versus 1.20 for brexucabtagene autoleucel versus R-BAC and lifetime costs were €411,403 versus €74,415, respectively, which corresponds to a cost of €64,798 per QALY gained. The results were highly sensitive to brexucabtagene autoleucel acquisition cost and to assumptions on long-term survival, therefore the cost-effectiveness of brexucabtagene autoleucel for patients with R/R MCL requires validation with longer follow-up data and in specific risk subgroups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term clinical and molecular remissions in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) have been evaluated in only a few studies. DESIGN AND METHODS Sixty-five patients with MCL received ASCT (54 first-line ASCT, 10 second-line ASCT, and 1 third-line ASCT). In the case of long-term remission (≥5 years; n = 27), peripheral blood was tested for minimal residual disease (MRD) by t(11;14)- and IGH-PCR at the last follow-up. RESULTS Ten-year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and freedom from progression (FFP) after first-line ASCT were 64%, 52%, and 59% versus after second-line ASCT 50%, 20%, and 20%, respectively. Five-year OS, PFS, and FFP for the first-line cohort were 79%, 63%, and 69%, respectively. Five-year OS, PFS, and FFP after second-line ASCT were 60%, 30%, and 30%, respectively. Treatment-related mortality (3 months after ASCT) was 1.5%. So far 26 patients developed sustained long-term clinical and molecular complete remissions of up to 19 years following ASCT in first treatment line. CONCLUSION Sustained long-term clinical and molecular remissions are achievable following ASCT.

Abstract
As the number and type of regulatory authority-approved cellular therapies grow, clinical treatment centers face a heavy burden of duplicative documentation around initial qualification, ongoing auditing, and reporting, with overlapping requirements from each manufacturer to ensure safe use of their specific product, which in the United States are stipulated under individual Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Biologic License Applications. The American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) convened the 80/20 Task Force to consider challenges and potential solutions to these issues. The Task Force proposed that 80% of manufacturers' requirements for onboarding and ongoing operations of commercially available products could be standardized and streamlined. Task Force members interviewed dozens of stakeholders, including clinicians at large academic medical centers already using commercial and investigational immune effector cell (IEC) products, regulators, members of accrediting bodies and professional cellular therapy societies, and manufacturers of IEC therapies for oncologic indications. In November 2021, the Task Force organized and led virtual discussions in a public forum and at a private ASTCT 80/20 Workshop at the online AcCELLerate Forum, a cellular-therapy stakeholders' meeting organized by the ASTCT, National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP), and Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR). At the workshop, approximately 60 stakeholders worked to identify and prioritize common challenges in onboarding and maintenance of operations at clinical sites for commercial FDA-approved and future IEC therapies and ways to streamline the process. It was agreed that standardization would improve efficiency of onboarding, allowing more cost-effective, sustainable growth of approved IEC therapies at treatment centers, and facilitate wider access while maintaining safety and clinical success. This early but extensive survey of stakeholders resulted in 5 overarching suggestions for both established and emerging treatment centers: (1) eliminate duplication in accreditation and auditing of clinical sites; (2) define expectations for the education about and management of CAR-T therapy toxicities to potentially replace product-specific REMS programs; (3) streamline current REMS education, testing, and data reporting; (4) standardize information technology (IT) platforms supporting enrollment, clinical site-manufacturer communication, and logistics of maintaining chain of identity/chain of custody across multiple transportation steps; and (5) encourage the use of universal nomenclature by cell therapy manufacturers. Future discussions need to engage a broader range of stakeholders, including administrators, pharmacists, nurses, data coordinators, surgeons, pathologists, and those developing promising cellular therapies for solid tumors, as well as teams from smaller academic or community cancer center settings. Continued collaboration with stakeholders outside of clinical sites will include accrediting bodies/auditors, established and emerging cell therapy companies, software developers, professional societies, and the patients who receive these therapies. Active dialog with government regulators remains essential. Such joint efforts are critical as the number of IEC therapies for myriad oncologic and nononcologic indications grows.

Late effects in patients with mantle cell lymphoma treated with or without autologous stem cell transplantation. Blood Adv 2023; 7:866-874. [PMID: 35973196 PMCID: PMC10018432 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2022007241] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Studies on late effects in patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) are becoming increasingly important as survival is improving, and novel targeted drugs are being introduced. However, knowledge about late effects is limited. The aim of this population-based study was to describe the magnitude and panorama of late effects among patients treated with or without high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (HD-ASCT). The study cohort included all patients with MCL, recorded in the Swedish Lymphoma Register, aged 18 to 69 years, diagnosed between 2000 and 2014 (N = 620; treated with HD-ASCT, n = 247) and 1:10 matched healthy comparators. Patients and comparators were followed up via the National Patient Register and Cause of Death Register, from 12 months after diagnosis or matching to December 2017. Incidence rate ratios of the numbers of outpatient visits, hospitalizations, and bed days were estimated using negative binomial regression models. In relation to the matched comparators, the rate of specialist and hospital visits was significantly higher among patients with MCL. Patients with MCL had especially high relative risks of infectious, respiratory, and blood disorders. Within this observation period, no difference in the rate of these complications, including secondary neoplasms, was observed between patients treated with and without HD-ASCT. Most of the patients died from their lymphoma and not from another cause or treatment complication. Taken together, our results imply that most of the posttreatment health care needs are related to the lymphoma disease itself, thus, indicating the need for more efficient treatment options.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a mature B-cell lymphoma with a variable clinical course and historically poor prognosis. Management is challenging in part due to the heterogeneity of the disease course, with indolent and aggressive subtypes now well recognised. Indolent MCL is often characterised by a leukaemic presentation, SOX11 negativity and low proliferation index (Ki-67). Aggressive MCL is characterised by rapid onset widespread lymphadenopathy, extra-nodal involvement, blastoid or pleomorphic histology and high Ki-67. Tumour protein p53 (TP53) aberrations in aggressive MCL are recognised with clear negative impact on survival. Until recently, trials have not addressed these specific subtypes separately. With the increasing availability of targeted novel agents and cellular therapies, the treatment landscape is constantly evolving. In this review, we describe the clinical presentation, biological factors, and specific management considerations of both indolent and aggressive MCL and discuss current and potential future evidence which may help move to a more personalised approach.

What is the role of up-front autologous stem cell transplantation in mantle cell lymphoma? HEMATOLOGY. AMERICAN SOCIETY OF HEMATOLOGY. EDUCATION PROGRAM 2022; 2022:155-162.

Abstract
Up-front autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the established standard of care for younger, transplant-eligible MCL patients and is associated with a prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) benefit. However, there is no randomized controlled trial data, with therapy including rituximab and cytarabine, that has established a PFS and overall survival (OS) benefit with ASCT in the modern era. Multiple retrospective studies have failed to identify an OS benefit associated with ASCT in younger MCL patients. The high-risk patient subgroup with evidence of baseline TP53 mutation has a dismal outcome with intensive chemoimmunotherapy followed by ASCT, thus up-front ASCT is not optimal for this patient subset. Ongoing randomized clinical trials will help to clarify the role of up-front ASCT in the future. For example, the ongoing European MCL Network Triangle study incorporating ibrutinib into chemoimmunotherapy induction and maintenance with and without ASCT will help define the role of ASCT in the era of novel biologically targeted agents (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02858258). Additionally, minimal residual disease (MRD) assessment is a powerful prognostic tool in MCL, and the ongoing Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group-American College of Radiology Imaging Network E4151 study is comparing maintenance rituximab alone vs ASCT consolidation in MCL patients who achieve remission and MRD-undetectable status post induction (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03267433). ASCT remains a highly efficacious initial therapy for younger MCL patients; however, ultimately the decision to pursue ASCT requires discussion of risks vs benefits, incorporating patient preferences and values.

Abstract
Over the past decade, therapeutic options in multiple myeloma (MM) have changed dramatically. Given the unprecedented efficacy of novel agents, the role of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in MM remains under scrutiny. Rapid advances in myeloma immunotherapy including the recent approval of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy will impact the MM therapeutic landscape. The American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy convened an expert panel to formulate clinical practice recommendations for role, timing, and sequencing of autologous (auto-HCT), allogeneic (allo-HCT) and CAR T-cell therapy for patients with newly diagnosed (NDMM) and relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM). The RAND-modified Delphi method was used to generate consensus statements. Twenty consensus statements were generated. The panel endorsed continued use of auto-HCT consolidation for patients with NDMM as a standard-of-care option, whereas in the front line allo-HCT and CAR-T were not recommended outside the setting of clinical trial. For patients not undergoing auto-HCT upfront, the panel recommended its use in first relapse. Lenalidomide as a single agent was recommended for maintenance especially for standard risk patients. In the RRMM setting, the panel recommended the use of CAR-T in patients with 4 or more prior lines of therapy. The panel encouraged allo-HCT in RRMM setting only in the context of clinical trial. The panel found RAND-modified Delphi methodology effective in providing a formal framework for developing consensus recommendations for the timing and sequence of cellular therapies for MM.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this review, the current treatment strategies are recapped, evolving agents are discussed, and we provide guidance in treating R/R MCL. RECENT FINDINGS There has been an advancement in treatment using targeted therapy, cellular therapies including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and novel therapeutic agents including non-covalent BTKis, bispecific antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates for treatment of refractory and relapsed mantle cell lymphoma. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a mature B-cell lymphoma that is associated with a poor prognosis. Current treatments include immunochemotherapy, chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (SCT) which place patients in remission but result in relapse. Chemoimmunotherapy uses chemotherapeutic agents paired with rituximab in patients who have chemo-sensitive disease with prolonged remission of at least > 2 years and/or have contraindications to chemotherapy that serve as bridges to more definitive treatment. Additional therapies including proteosome inhibitor-based therapies and immunomodulators, like bortezomib and lenalidomide, can be used as single agents or in combination with others. Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors including ibrutinib, acalaburtinib, and zanubrutinib have also been proven effective for the treatment of (R/R) disease. Another agent is Venetoclax, a robust drug that can be used in MCL after progression or intolerance to BTKi. Newer advances in the management of MCL have led to the utilization of cellular therapies including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy and SCT that are options for healthy young (< 65 years old) who have progressed through several lines of therapies. With progression of disease, mutations are acquired that cause therapy resistance. Novel therapeutic agents such as non-covalent BTKis, bispecific antibodies, and antibody-drug conjugates are paving the way for advancements in treatment for R/R MCL. R/R MCL is a complex disease with many therapeutic options none of which has been proven superior in head-to-head comparison. In this review, the current treatment strategies are recapped, evolving agents are discussed, and we provide guidance in treating R/R MCL.

Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an uncommon subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in which immunochemotherapy, with or without high-dose therapy, and autologous stem cell transplantation remain standard frontline therapies. Despite their clear efficacy, patients inevitably relapse and require subsequent therapy. In this review, we discuss the key therapeutic approaches in the management of relapsed MCL, covering in depth the data supporting the use of covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors at first or subsequent relapse. We describe the outcomes of patients progressing through BTK inhibitors and discuss the mechanisms of covalent BTKi resistance and treatment options after covalent treatment with BTKi. Options in this setting may depend on treatment availability, patient's and physician's preference, and the patient's age and comorbidity status. We discuss the rapid recent development of anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, as well as the utility of allogenic stem cell transplantation and novel therapies, such as noncovalent, reversible BTK inhibitors; ROR1 antibody drug conjugates; and bispecific antibodies.

Is There Still a Role for Transplant for Patients with Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) in the Era of CAR-T Cell Therapy? Curr Treat Options Oncol 2022; 23:1614-1625.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT For years, upfront autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (auto-HCT) has been the standard of care for younger and physically fit mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients after chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) induction. Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors have proven to be excellent salvage therapies, but their durability remains a question, especially in high-risk (HR) MCL. Allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT) was the only option for long-term remission and possibly cure for MCL relapse after auto-HCT and sometime as upfront consolidation for a young patient with HR MCL (debatable). We have seen a paradigm shift since the FDA approval in July 2020 of the brexucabtagene autoleucel chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy for relapsed and refractory (R/R) MCL with an preliminary evidence suggesting CAR-T may overcome known biological risk factors in MCL. Given its safety profile and excellent efficacy, the role of CAR-T among other approved therapies and HCT may need to be better defined. Based on the current evidence, auto-HCT remains a standard frontline consolidation therapy. CAR-T therapy is a preferred option for patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) MCL, particularly those who failed BTK inhibitors. In certain high-risk MCL patients (such as high ki 67, TP53 alterations, complex karyotype, blastoid morphology, early relapse after initial diagnosis), CAR-T cell therapy may be considered before BTK inhibitors (preferably on a clinical trial). The role of allo-HCT is unclear in the CAR-T era, but remains a viable option for eligible patients who have no access or who have failed CAR-T therapy. Our review discusses current standards and the shifting paradigms in the indications for HCT and the role of CAR-T cell therapy for MCL. Prospective studies tailored based on risk factors are needed to better define the optimal sequences of HCT and cellular therapy and other approved novel therapies.

Abstract
Aggressive B-cell lymphomas including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma make up the majority of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma globally. While more than half of these patients can be cured with modern chemoimmunotherapy regimens, the outcomes of relapsed or refractory disease continue to be very poor. Despite significant developments in targeted cancer therapies and immuno-oncology, the attainability of a cure remained an elusive goal outside of incorporating high doses of chemotherapy followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, for patients who have chemosensitive disease. The development of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy changed that paradigm and introduced a new field of therapeutic possibilities for these patients. In this review, we will discuss the current state of this therapeutic modality in B-cell lymphomas and provide opinions on where future efforts need to focus in order to further improve their clinical utility.
