How we treat mantle cell lymphoma with cellular therapy in 2025: the European and American perspectives
Year: 2025
Type: review
Abstract: Cellular therapies have been cornerstones of the treatment of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) for decades and have helped to improve the outcome of this formerly very unfavourable B-cell lymphoma considerably. Current established roles of cellular therapies include autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) as part of first-line therapy, chimeric antigen receptor-engineered T-cells (CART) for relapsed/refractory MCL, and allogeneic HCT for settings in which CARTs have failed or are unavailable. Therapeutic innovations have recently entered the MCL treatment landscape and are moving upstream in treatment algorithms, challenging the existing management principles. The purpose of this paper is to give some guidance regarding how to best use cellular therapies in this increasingly complex environment. Due to differences in CART labels, available non-cellular treatment options, and philosophy between the American and the European health systems, we found it reasonable to contrast the American and European perspectives on defined standard scenarios, which are often overlapping but show discrepancies in some important aspects.
