CAR-T for Pediatric B-ALL: Expert Tips

In this episode, Prof André Baruchel discusses the role of CAR T-cell therapy in children with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). He reviews current indications for CAR T-cell treatment, including relapsed and refractory disease, and explores whether CAR T could move earlier in the treatment pathway. The discussion also examines how CAR T-cell therapy compares with transplantation, blinatumomab, and other salvage strategies, as well as the factors that influence long-term outcomes and relapse risk.  The conversation highlights key questions surrounding the role of allo-HSCT in the CAR T era. Prof Baruchel also explores emerging approaches designed to improve outcomes, including dual-targeted CARs, strategies to enhance cellular persistence.Listen now for insights into how fourth-generation CAR constructs that modify the tumour microenvironment, and in vivo CAR therapies may further transform the treatment of pediatric B-ALL.Guests:  Prof André Baruchel Affiliation: Professor of Pediatrics, Université Paris-Cité; former Head of the Pediatric Hematology Immunology Department, Hôpital Robert-Debré, ParisHost: Leah DeLeon Learn MoreWhat did you think of this podcast?
