Hospital Director Lu Peihua was invited to participate in the 1st European CAR-T Cell Meeting
The 1st
European CAR-T Cell Meeting was held in Paris, France on February 14-16, 2019.
The meeting was organized by the European Association of Hematology (EHA) and
the European Society for Blood and Bone Marrow Transplantation (EBMT). The scientists
of the hematology and clinicians from all over the world come together to
discuss the latest developments in the emerging CAR-T cell immunotherapy, share
experiences and conduct collaborative research.
Lu
Peihua, Director of Lu Daopei Hospital, was invited to attend the meeting as a
guest speaker in the afternoon of February 15th and gave a report ‘CAR-T
Treatment for R/R B-CELL ALL: Experience from China .’
Director
Lu Peihua said that up to now, Lu Daopei Hospital has completed more than 500
patients into the group to receive CAR-T therapy. As a single center, Lu Daopei
Hospital has the largest number of CAR-T cases completed in China and the
world, and accumulated a lot of experience. Clinical trials have shown that
patients with refractory/relapsed acute B-lymphocytic leukemia who receive
CAR-T have a higher response rate; cytokine release syndrome is controllable;
many high-risk patients (such as high tumor burden, extramedullary invasion,
PH-positive, TP53 mutations, and recurrence after allogeneic hematopoietic stem
cell transplantation ) can also benefit from CAR-T; central nervous system leukemia is
not an absolute contraindication to CAR-T therapy; Overall survival and
recurrence-free survival in patients with TP53 mutations were observed to be
lower; patients who underwent CAR-T therapy re-bridged allogeneic hematopoietic
stem cell had significantly better overall survival and recurrence-free
survival than patient without bridge transplantation .
After attended the 60th
Annual Meeting of American Hematology (ASH) in early December and the 2019
World Phacilitate Leaders Summit and World Stem Cell Summit (WSCS) in late
January this year, Director Lu Peihua was once again invited to participate in
