About this episode
Host: Charles Turck, PharmD, BCPS, BCCCP
Guest: Sairah Ahmed, MD
Guest: Caron A. Jacobson, MD

The side effects associated with CAR T-cell therapy are very different than those seen with other cancer therapies and include cytokine-release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity. It’s important to know how to recognize the signs of these adverse events and treat patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma early to avoid drastic quality-of-life impacts. To help improve patient safety and decrease hospital utilization, Dr. Charles Turck speaks with Drs. Caron Jacobson and Sairah Ahmed about the proper identification and management of these side effects in patients receiving CAR T-cell therapy. Dr. Jacobson is the Medical Director of the Immune Effector Cell Therapy Program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, and Dr. Ahmed is an Associate Professor in the Department of Lymphoma and Myeloma Division of Cancer Medicine at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston.
