简要总结
The treatment of large-cell B-cell lymphomas refractory to more than 2 lines of therapy has recently been revolutionized by the use of immunotherapies consisting of autologous genetically modified cells or CAR-T CELLS (chimeric antigen receptor-T cells), which very significantly increase progression-free survival and overall survival. Nevertheless, this therapy is frequently associated with cytokine release syndrome and in approximately 20% to 60% of patients with neurological complications that can sometimes be dramatic and are associated with a significant mortality rate.
The mechanisms behind this neurotoxicity are unclear.
Despite the frequent occurrence of neurological toxicity characterized in particular by headache, tremor, and encephalopathy that is most often transient, brain imaging by CT or, preferably, MRI are most often normal. The rare abnormalities that have been identified suggest the presence of cytotoxic edema associated with the existence of transient modifications of the blood-brain barrier.
To date, the management of neurotoxicity associated with CAR-T CELLS remains empirical. It combines early management of cytokine release syndrome (by administration of anti-IL6) and treatment with corticosteroids, the objective of which would be to control neurotoxicity more specifically. A better understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms associated with this neurotoxicity appears essential today in order to be able to propose adapted prevention and treatment methods.
Main objectives are to compare tissue permeability by quantitative MRI measurement of Ktrans to the theoretical peak of neurotoxicity between patients with CAR-T Cell-induced neurotoxicity and those without neurotoxicity and to Study, by MRI, the evolution of tissue microcirculatory parameters (from D-3 to D7) between groups of patients with or without the occurrence of neurotoxicity associated with CAR-T CELL treatment.
For this purpose, 25 subjects will be included (the investigators hypothesize 40% with treatment-induced neurological impairment).
详细描述
The treatment of large-cell B-cell lymphomas refractory to more than 2 lines of therapy has recently been revolutionized by the use of immunotherapies consisting of autologous genetically modified cells or CAR-T CELLS (chimeric antigen receptor-T cells), which very significantly increase progression-free survival and overall survival. Nevertheless, this therapy is frequently associated with cytokine release syndrome and in approximately 20% to 60% of patients with neurological complications that can sometimes be dramatic and are associated with a significant mortality rate.
The mechanisms behind this neurotoxicity are unclear but may include :
- A "systemic" toxicity associated with the cytokine release syndrome. This toxicity would thus be favoured by the associated inflammatory response syndrome manifested in particular by hyperthermia, changes in blood pressure, and an increase in CRP, ferritin and the number of white blood cells.
- A breakdown of the blood-brain barrier, as evidenced by increased protein levels, cellularity and cytokine levels in the cerebrospinal fluid. Among other things, this rupture could be promoted by the synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines (IL6, TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma) that would promote endothelial activation.
- Direct toxicity to neurons and/or microglial cells.
