Abstract
The BCMA-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) has demonstrated exceptional efficacy in studies conducted worldwide, which has resulted in regulatory approvals in >40 countries. Herein, we examine the regulatory pathways that led to its approval in different regions, focus on challenges in clinical development and regulatory submission, and provide insight into strategies for advancing innovative cell therapies.
