CAR-T Therapy in Haematological Malignancy: Early Stage Outlook: KOL Insight [2018]
How are CAR-T cell therapies revolutionising treatment of haematological cancer?
Last year witnessed the FDA approval of the first two anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapies in two types of blood cancer. Find out how these novel treatments are impacting treatment choices so far and how their introduction is progressing in the US. Eight of the world’s leading key opinion leaders (KOLs) from the US and Europe provide their views on the opportunities and challenges that face these exciting treatments across multiple haematological cancer settings and discuss the potential logistical, pricing, reimbursement and market access (PR&MA) hurdles, and how they can be overcome.
Learn how KOLs see the future CAR-T therapy market evolving, and how they expect developers to successfully differentiate their CAR-T therapies in KOL Insight: CAR-T Therapies in Haematological Malignancy. Experts also provide their candid views on next-generation CAR-T approaches and their potential adoption in other blood cancers.

“There's absolutely no reason that CAR-T should not be at least second-line for DLBCL; patients who relapse with large cell lymphoma are incurable and this is probably the easier and safer therapy.” US Key Opinion Leader
“There is no doubt about the fact that EMA will approve [CAR-T]. Judging from the data plus the experience, I think there is no doubt that both products will be approved.” EU Key Opinion Leader
“[CAR-T] will be used anywhere between 10 and 30 percent of patients in general with these diseases. I would not be surprised if it's 50 percent or more.” EU Key Opinion Leader
