Two Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cell therapies are now approved for the treatment of relapsed and refractory large cell lymphomas, with many others under development. The dawn of CAR T cell therapy in non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) has been characterized by rapid progress and high response rates, with a subset of patients experiencing durable benefit. In this review, we describe commercially available and investigational CAR T cell therapies, including product characteristics and clinical outcomes. We review patient selection, with an emphasis on sequencing cell therapy options in the refractory setting. Finally, we discuss durability of response, highlighting mechanisms of escape and investigational approaches to prevent and treat relapse after CAR T cell therapy.
