Researchers with Memorial Sloan Kettering and City of Hope have created a tool that uses machine learning to assess a non-Hodgkin lymphoma patient’s likely response to chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy before starting the treatment, according to study results published on April 1 in Nature Medicine.
A study led by The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center—Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute found the drug pirtobrutinib worked as well as another drug, ibrutinib, in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma, and people in the study responded better with pirtobrutinib.
