However, it has a unique safety profile, including cytokine-release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), and robust management of these events are important to maximize benefits. The aim of this vodcast is to outline the management of a patient receiving CAR T-cell therapy for relapsed/refractory (r/r) DLBCL. In January 2005, the patient was diagnosed with atypical chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and treated with two cycles of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide before stopping due to skin toxicity. In 2007, the patient progressed and received alemtuzumab. In January 2018, the patient was diagnosed with DLBCL (nongerminal center, stage IV-A, bone marrow infiltration); a clonality analysis with the previous CLL provided a negative result. In March 2018, the patient received first-line treatment with rituximab-cyclophosphamide-doxorubicin-vincristine-prednisolone (R-CHOP)) for six cycles. At this point, a positron emission tomography (PET) scan showed complete remission. Unfortunately, in December 2018, they experienced a relapse and second-line therapy with rituximab, etoposide, cytarabine, cisplatin, and prednisone (R-ESHAP) was started. Following the second cycle of R-ESHAP in February 2019, the patient progressed, and third-line treatment was provided by rituximab plus ifosfamide, gemcitabine, vinorelbine, and prednisone (R-IGEV) for four cycles. The last cycle of R-IGEV was received in May 2019, but the patient progressed. In July 2019, the patient received a tisagenlecleucel infusion. The authors describe the effectiveness of the CAR T-cell therapy and how the adverse events (AEs) encountered, including CRS and ICANS, were managed. Results from real-world evidence studies of tisagenlecleucel in DLBCL are similar to those observed in the pivotal clinical trials. In conclusion, CAR T-cell therapy can be effective and achieve long-lasting, durable responses in patients with high-risk r/r DLBCL.

We conducted a cost-effectiveness analysis from a US payer perspective. A societal perspective scenario was also considered, including productivity gains.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The cost-effectiveness of pembrolizumab + chemotherapy versus chemotherapy was assessed using a state-transition model comprising the health states \"pre-progression,\" \"post-progression,\" and \"death,\" with a 1-week cycle length and 50-year time horizon. Patient-level KEYNOTE-826 data informed the efficacy, safety, and health-related quality of life of pembrolizumab + chemotherapy versus chemotherapy at first-line and subsequent treatments. Real-world data were sought to cost subsequent treatments according to US clinical practice. Transition probabilities were derived from parametric survival models fit to time-to-progression, progression-free survival, and post-progression survival patient-level KEYNOTE-826 data. Sensitivity analyses explored the impact on outcomes from variables such as bevacizumab use.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>According to the state-transition model, pembrolizumab + chemotherapy extended mean life expectancy versus chemotherapy from 1.8 to 6.7 life-years. The mean gain of 4.9 life-years/patient was mostly caused by pembrolizumab delaying progression. Total discounted quality-adjusted life-years (QALY) were 5.0 and 1.3 per patient for pembrolizumab + chemotherapy and chemotherapy, respectively (mean gain: 3.7 QALY/patient). Pembrolizumab + chemotherapy had comparable safety outcomes to chemotherapy alone. Total costs incurred were US $320,247 (pembrolizumab + chemotherapy) versus US $105,446 (chemotherapy; mean incremental costs: US $214,801/patient). The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of pembrolizumab + chemotherapy versus chemotherapy was US $58,446/QALY. Sensitivity analyses showed results were insensitive to bevacizumab use. Including productivity gains led to an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of US $58,385 per QALY.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Our model-based analysis suggests that first-line treatment of pembrolizumab + chemotherapy in advanced cervical cancer with a CPS ≥ 1 offers a substantial clinical benefit over standard-of-care chemotherapy alone and is cost-effective at a willingness-to-pay threshold of US $150,000. The approximate doubling of life-years and QALYs associated with pembrolizumab + chemotherapy represents a step improvement in the treatment of advanced cervical cancer.</p><p><strong>Trial registration: </strong>ClinicalTrials.gov Identification Number: NCT03635567.</p>","PeriodicalId":44205,"journal":{"name":"Oncology and Therapy","volume":" ","pages":"85-98"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11880493/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142584563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
