Bruce D. Cheson, MD, and Stephen M. Ansell, MD, PhD, on Non-Hodgkin and Follicular Lymphomas: Integrating Non–CAR T-Based Treatments
2021 Pan Pacific Lymphoma Conference
Stephen M. Ansell, MD, PhD, of the Mayo Clinic, and Bruce D. Cheson, MD, of the Lymphoma Research Foundation, engage in a lively debate about CAR T-cell therapy, how it fits in with immunotherapy and nonchemotherapy approaches, and how to decide which treatment is right for which patient, especially given the many challenges of obtaining CAR T cells.
