In addition, further real-world evidence revealed a decreasing trend in the incidence and severity of cytokine release syndrome and related neurotoxicities in later treatment settings. Findings from the ALYCANTE study also indicated that patients experienced either stable or improved long-term quality of life after treatment with Yescarta.

AI Summary
Kite, a Gilead Company, announced three new analyses for Yescarta® (axicabtagene ciloleucel) in patients with relapsed/refractory large B‑cell lymphoma. The data include both clinical research and real‐world evidence showing that when Yescarta is used in the second‐line setting, it has a higher manufacturing success rate and improved T‑cell performance compared to its use in later treatment lines. This improvement in manufacturing can reduce the time from leukapheresis to infusion, potentially leading to better patient outcomes. Additionally, preliminary results explore the feasibility and safety of administering Yescarta and Tecartus® (brexucabtagene autoleucel) in an outpatient setting. These findings will be further discussed at the upcoming 2024 European Hematology Association Annual Congress in Madrid from June 13–16, reinforcing the benefits of early intervention and streamlined cell manufacturing in managing LBCL.
