Key clinical point: Compared with tisagenlecleucel, axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) was associated with improved treatment outcomes but increased the risk for grade ≥ 3 neurologic events in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) in real-world settings.

Major finding: Axi-cel vs tisagenlecleucel improved the overall survival (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 0.60; 95% CI 0.47-0.77), progression-free survival (aHR 0.67; 95% CI 0.57-0.78), and overall response rate (odds ratio 2.05; 95% CI 1.76-2.40). However, it was associated with a higher incidence of grade ≥ 3 immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (odds ratio 3.95; 95% CI 3.05-5.11).

Study details: This comparative meta-analysis of 14 real-world cohorts included patients with relapsed or refractory LBCL who received axi-cel (n = 2432) or tisagenlecleucel (n = 1514) chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy.

Disclosures: This study was funded by Kite, a Gilead Company. Six authors declared being employees of or holding leadership positions and stocks in Kite or Gilead. Several authors reported receiving honoraria, travel fees, research funding, etc., from various sources, including Kite.
