What this Trial Is About
Researchers are investigating the role of extracellular vesicles EV as potential biomarkers in patients with refractory or relapsed hematologic cancers undergoing CAR-T cell therapy. The study aims to identify EV biomarkers related to neurological toxicity after CAR-T infusion and to better understand factors that predict treatment outcomes and side effects. The study includes patients who are receiving or are candidates for CAR-T cell therapy for hematologic malignancies such as refractory or relapsed B cell lymphoma, B cell acute leukemia, and multiple myeloma. A total of 100 patients will be enrolled during an 18-month period, including both prospective and retrospective participants. There is no intervention beyond observation since this is an observational study. Participants will be followed to assess their response to CAR-T cell treatment over 18 months. Researchers will collect data related to extracellular vesicles and neurological side effects after therapy. The main outcome measured is the response rate to CAR-T cell treatment. Participants will provide written consent and be observed throughout the study period, which lasts until August 2026.
