Abstract

cells per kg) had a higher infection density within 28 days in an adjusted model of baseline characteristics. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) severity was the only factor after CAR-T-cell infusion associated with infection in a multivariable analysis. The incidence of infections was comparable to observations from clinical trials of salvage chemoimmunotherapies in similar patients. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01865617.
