Adverse effects
- cytokine release syndrome (cytokine storm)* most common
- CAR T-cell-related encephalopathy (CRES) 2nd most common
- may result in fatal cerebral edema[4]

Procedure
- a tumor-binding element is introduced into a patient's T-cells using viral vectors
- these T-cells are cultured to produce large numbers of such cells, then reinfused into the patient
- modified T-cells attack leukemia cells with CD19 antigen (B-cells)
Clinical trials
- pediatric & young adult patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell ALL
- a single infusion of tisagenlecleucel
- durable remission with long-term persistence in
