Predictive Models for CAR T-Cell Therapy: Personalizing R/R LBCL Care

Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Matthew Matasar, MD When treating relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (R/R LBCL) with CAR T-cell therapy, the risk of adverse events is a key consideration. Models such as PhasED-Seq and CAR-HEMATOTOX can help clinicians assess the patient’s risk and personalize care plans regarding treatment selection and location, prophylactic regimen, and early intervention strategies. Tune in to hear Dr. Charles Turck and Dr. Matthew Matasar discuss the importance of these models in identifying individual factors, which can maximize the benefits of CAR T-cell therapy and reduce toxicities. Dr. Matasar is the Chief of the Division of Blood Disorders at Rutgers Cancer Institute and a Professor of Medicine at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School.
