Severity of adverse events was graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0. Cytokine release syndrome and neurologic events were graded according to the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (ASBMT) consensus. Regarding the grade 5 events, one patient died from acute kidney injury related to CAR T therapy. CRS, cytokine release syndrome; ICANS, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome; ALT, alanine aminotransferase; AST, aspartate aminotransferase; T-BIL, total bilirubin; APTT, activated partial thromboplastin time.
