CRS, cytokine release syndrome; Flu/Cy, lymphodepletion with fludarabine/cyclophosphamide.
Additional therapy between loncastuximab tesirine and CAR T-cell therapy included radiation alone (n = 3), radiation, ifosphamide/vinblastine/etoposide (n = 1), radiation; rituximab/methotrexate (n = 1), lenalidomide, anti-CD47 antibody, ibrutinib (n = 1).
One patient each received a CD19/CD22-directed CAR, and a CD19/CD20-directed CAR. Neither patient responded to CAR treatment.
