Analyzing Toxicity Trends Post-CAR T-Cell Therapy: Implications for Patient Monitoring

Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP Guest: Manali Kamdar, MD Although CAR T-cell therapies have transformed the treatment of B-cell malignancies, a major logistical and socioeconomic barrier remains: patients are typically required to stay near a certified treatment center for at least 4 weeks after infusion to manage potential adverse events. So to help improve patient access, a recent study explored exactly when toxicities occur and whether post-infusion monitoring could be shortened without compromising safety. And based on the findings, it’s time to rethink the 4-week monitoring window. To learn more about the study’s results and what they mean for patient monitoring, safety, and broader outcomes, tune in to hear Dr. Charles Turck speak with Dr. Manali Kamdar, who authored a poster on this topic that was presented at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting.
