Emerging Strategies for the Prevention of Immune Toxicities Associated with T cell-Engaging Cancer Therapies.

Immune-related toxicities including cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) are common side effects of bispecific antibody and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies of hematologic malignancies. As anti-inflammatory therapy (the standard of care) is variably effective in mitigating these toxicities after onset, here we discuss emerging evidence for shifting the strategy from mitigation to prevention.
