Quality Of Life and Drug Use in Patients With CAR-T Cells

Conditions
Patients With Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Treated With CART-cells
Interventions
Other: Semi-structured interviews and self-administered questionnaires
Registration Number
NCT04914091
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

CAR-T cells are a major therapeutic innovation in the management of patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in 3rd line or more. Kymriah® and Yescarta® are the first CAR-T with Marketing Authorization and coverage by the French Health Insurance. Their clinical interest has been demonstrated in non-comparative phase 1-2 trials.

The non-comparative design of the pivotal trials, the lack of data on patients' quality of life and drug consumption, as well as the very high cost of CAR-T (about € 320,000 for one treatment) warrant further studies.

This prospective non-comparative study aims to describe in real life the quality of life of patients treated with CAR-T cells, real world drug use and patients' experience feedback.
