What they don't say is equally as important as what they do say.

Prizlon-cel, is a novel CD19/CD20 bispecific CAR-T. Of the 48 patients infused, 44 had LBCL. No patient experienced a DLT. CRS occurred in 93.8% of patients, with only one case of grade 3. ICANS occurred in 6.3% of patients, with no grade 3 or higher events. The ORR and complete response (CR) rates in all patients were 91.5% and 85.1%, respectively, and in LBCL patients, ORR was 90.7% with 86.0% CR. With median follow up of 30.0 months, median DOR, PFS, and OS were all not reached. The Kaplan-Meier estimate of 2-year DOR, PFS and OS rates were 66.0%, 62.6%, and 76.5%, respectively. https://ashpublications.org/blood/article/doi/10.1182/blood.2024026401/535112/A-phase-1-trial-of-prizloncabtagene-autoleucel-a

The company behind it has signed deals with both AstraZeneca and Janssen. The latter includes this CAR (and another targeting just CD20), which has been granted Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy and Fast Track designations by the FDA for the treatment of patients with R/R DLBCL. Now a PhI/II trial is ongoing https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05800977
