Blina, blinatumomab; EM, extramedullary; KMT2Ar, KMT2A-rearranged; MRD, minimal residual disease (defined as <.01% bone marrow blasts by multiparameter flow cytometry); N/A, not applicable; PB, peripheral blood.

A total of 166 patients experienced relapse, but immunophenotype at relapse was only available in 163 patients, which constituted the analysis cohort.

4-1BB CAR T-cell constructs were comprised of 1 of 2 available constructs, including the construct that eventually was FDA approved; tisagenlecleucel refers to the commercially available construct.
