Abstract
: Axicabtagene ciloleucel showed efficacy for relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphomas (LBCL), including primary mediastinal B-cell lymphomas (PMBCL); however, only few PMBCLs were reported. Aim was to evaluate efficacy and safety of axicabtagene ciloleucel in patients with PMBCL compared to those with other LBCL, enrolled in the Italian prospective observational CART-SIE study. PMBCLs (n = 70) were younger, with higher percentage of bulky and refractory disease, compared to other LBCLs (n = 190). Median follow-up time for infused patients was 12.17 months (IQR 5.53,22.73). The overall (complete + partial) response rate (ORR,CR + PR) after bridging was 41% for PMBCL and 28% for other LBCL, p = 0.0102. Thirty days ORR was 78% (53/68) with 50% (34) CR in PMBCL, and 75% (141/187) with 53% (100) CR in other LBCL, p = 0.5457.
