Favorable survival for older adults treated with Axi-cel and Tisa-cel CD19 CAR-T therapy for relapsed/refractory DLBCL: a U.S. multicenter comparative analysis.

Older adults benefit from advanced cell therapies just as younger patients do, challenging age-based treatment barriers.

The abstract reports our results support the practice that age alone should not be a barrier to CAR-T consultation or therapy. This PubMed record was retained because it is relevant to treatment innovation.
