abstract = {The outcome of patients with large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL)
who relapse or progress after CD19-directed CAR-T cell
therapy administered as salvage therapy beyond the second
treatment line is poor. However, a minority of patients
become long-term survivors despite CAR-T failure. The German
Lymphoma Alliance (GLA) has proposed a hierarchical
management algorithm for CAR-T failure in LBCL, aiming at
allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) as
definite therapy in eligible patients.The purpose of this
study was to investigate characteristics, relapse patterns
and management strategies in long-term survivors after CAR-T
failure with particular focus on feasibility and outcome of
alloHCT.Retrospective analysis of all evaluable patients
with relapse/progression event (REL) observed in a previous
reported GLA sample (Bethge et al, Blood 2022) between
November 2018 and May 2021.REL occurred in 214 of 356
patients $(60\%)$ having undergone CAR-T for LBCL in the
previous GLA study. For 143 of these 214 patients $(67\%)$
an evaluable dataset was available. 26 of 143 patients
$(18\%)$ survived 12 months or longer from REL, 109 $(76\%)$
died within the first year after REL, and 8 patients $(6\%)$
were alive but had not reached the 12-months landmark.
Long-term survivors had more favorable pre-CAR-T features,
had a longer interval between CAR-T and REL, and had more
often received a tumor biopsy post CAR-T failure, whereas
the choice of the first salvage regimen had no impact.
AlloHCT was feasible in 40 of 53 patients $(75\%)$ intended
and resulted in a 12-month post-transplant overall survival
of $36\%$ in those patients who underwent transplant with
sensitive or untreated REL.AlloHCT after CAR-T failure in
LBCL is feasible and may be an important contributor to
long-term survival although selection bias has to be taken
into account. Thus, alloHCT should be considered as a
reasonable treatment option in eligible patients in this
setting. Since the overall outlook after CAR-T failure
nevertheless remains poor, novel effective therapeutic
approaches are needed, either for allowing long-term disease
control per se, or for improving the preconditions for
successful alloHCT.},
