Kara LandryAlissa A ThomasPublished in: Current oncology reports (2020)
In this review, we focus on the neurological toxicities associated with CAR T cell therapy. Neurotoxicity affects approximately half of patients treated with CAR T cells and can cause severe morbidity. We discuss the incidence, pathophysiology, and management of neurological complications of CAR T cells. CAR T cells are a breakthrough treatment for hematologic malignancies with considerable neurological toxicity that requires attention and management.
