Multiple Myeloma
#CARTTherapy #CART #MultipleMyeloma #BloodCancer #patientstory
China’s CAR-T cell therapy has emerged as a highly effective and proactive option for treating relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma, bringing new hope to patients facing limited treatment options. This innovative therapy has shown significant effectiveness in clinical practice, offering renewed optimism to both patients and doctors.
Recently, a team of hematology experts from Zhejiang Hospital visited a 72-year-old multiple myeloma patient who had just begun treatment with a domestically developed CAR-T therapy targeting BCMA. This patient, suffering from severe bone pain and difficulty walking, sought help from the Advanced Medicine In China team. Following a thorough consultation, the experts arranged for the patient’s hospitalization. After multiple rounds of traditional chemotherapy and an autologous stem cell transplant, the disease had unfortunately relapsed, prompting the medical team to recommend CAR-T therapy as an alternative.
As one of the first in China to implement CAR-T therapy for multiple myeloma, Zhejiang’s hematology team has accumulated significant clinical experience with this treatment. “The patient’s overall response to treatment has been very positive,” said one of the experts, noting that follow-up examinations showed stable results, confirming the therapy’s efficacy and safety.
Multiple myeloma is a malignant plasma cell disorder primarily affecting older adults; however, it has been seen with increasing frequency in younger patients, including some in their forties. While the disease remains incurable, recent advancements in new drugs and treatment options have greatly improved patient survival times and quality of life.
CAR-T therapy, or chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, involves extracting a patient’s own T cells and genetically modifying them to “weaponize” them against cancer cells. Once modified, these T cells are expanded in number outside the body and reintroduced into the patient, where they can further proliferate and continually attack tumor cells. Given the wealth of experience and demonstrated effectiveness of CAR-T therapy in China, it has shown promise in delivering better quality and duration of survival for patients.
The development of CAR-T therapy in China has advanced rapidly, with two CAR-T products now approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma. Experts emphasize that patients should seek guidance from highly experienced medical professionals in selecting the most suitable CAR-T therapy to ensure optimal effectiveness and treatment safety.

### Beacon of Hope: China’s CAR-T Therapy Helps a TP53-Deficient Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Patient Achieve Complete Remission
DLBCL
#CAR-T #CancerTreatment #Lymphoma #DLBCL #PrecisionMedicine
In an inspiring treatment case, a 38-year-old Chinese male patient with TP53-deficient Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) achieved complete remission through Chinese CAR-T cell therapy. This remarkable outcome has sparked excitement about the potential and efficacy of China’s CAR-T therapy for treating relapsed and refractory lymphomas.
Patient Treatment Journey
This Chinese patient was diagnosed with non-germinal center subtype DLBCL with TP53 gene deletion in March 2023, and his condition was assessed as high-risk. This genetic factor often complicates prognosis. The patient initially underwent treatments including R-CHOP and R-DA-EPOCH regimens, achieving partial remission (PR). Despite completing autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), his disease unfortunately progressed two months later, indicating that ASCT alone was insufficient for sustained remission, and the disease was on the brink of relapse.
Personalized Application of Chinese CAR-T Therapy
In desperation, the patient turned to our Advanced Medicine in China team for assistance. Under the guidance of lymphoma experts experienced in this treatment, the medical team decided to apply Chinese CAR-T cell therapy as a solution. Following a comprehensive assessment, including a detailed analysis of the patient’s medical history and genetic profile, a personalized treatment plan was devised. To further control the disease, the patient received localized retroperitoneal radiotherapy in January 2024, followed by the infusion of Chinese CAR-T cells in February after pretreatment with the FC regimen. Remarkably, just one month after the CAR-T cell infusion, the patient tolerated the therapy well and achieved complete remission (CR). This outcome not only halted disease progression but enabled the patient to return to work and resume a normal life.
Expert Interview with the Advanced Medicine in China Team
The team’s expert highlighted that this case involved relapsed refractory DLBCL, with TP53 deletion adding a higher risk of recurrence. ASCT alone was insufficient for sustained remission, making CAR-T a more effective option. Despite the greater treatment challenges, Chinese CAR-T therapy proved ideal for this high-risk relapsed case. The doctor advised that, when feasible in primary healthcare settings, Chinese CAR-T should be considered as an early intervention option. Research data supports the effectiveness of Chinese CAR-T in second-line therapy compared to standard ASCT.
Overall Advantages of Chinese CAR-T Therapy
This successful case is not isolated; it demonstrates China’s growing expertise and capabilities in CAR-T cell therapy. China has been at the forefront of research and clinical application in this field, committed to improving outcomes for lymphoma patients. The Chinese medical community takes a comprehensive approach to CAR-T therapy, prioritizing personalized medicine and tailoring treatment plans based on each patient’s unique genetic and clinical characteristics. For instance, advanced genetic testing enables doctors to identify specific mutations, such as P53 deletion, and adjust treatment strategies accordingly. When conventional chemotherapy and targeted drugs have limited efficacy, CAR-T cell therapy is increasingly being used as a viable alternative. Furthermore, Chinese hospitals continuously optimize treatment protocols. The pretreatment regimen prior to CAR-T cell infusion is meticulously designed to create an optimal therapeutic environment in the patient’s body. This not only removes barriers for the proliferation and effective functioning of CAR-T cells but also minimizes potential side effects. In this case, the patient’s positive response to the therapy was partly due to the carefully crafted pretreatment regimen.
Global Significance of China’s Experience
As the world seeks innovative cancer treatment solutions, China’s success with CAR-T cell therapy for lymphoma patients provides valuable insights. The combination of advanced medical technology, personalized treatment strategies, and comprehensive patient support offers beneficial lessons for the global fight against lymphoma and other cancers. With ongoing research and accumulating clinical experience, the future of Chinese CAR-T cell therapy holds great promise, bringing hope not only to patients in China but to patients worldwide.

What Kind of Multiple Myeloma Patients Are Suitable for CAR-T Therapy in China?
# What Kind of Multiple Myeloma Patients Are Suitable for CAR-T Therapy in China?
Multiple Myeloma
#MultipleMyeloma #CAR_Therapy #MM #CART #RRMM #Hematology
**Multiple Myeloma** (MM) is a malignant hematological disease that affects plasma cells. In recent years, various drugs and treatment methods, such as proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and autologous stem cell transplantation, have significantly improved the prognosis of multiple myeloma patients. However, a considerable number of patients still experience relapses and refractory disease. For these patients, CAR-T cell therapy is emerging as a groundbreaking and effective treatment option.
China has made remarkable progress in CAR-T therapy technology in recent years, becoming a global leader in the field of hematological diseases. This has attracted patients worldwide to seek this advanced treatment. So, which multiple myeloma patients are suitable to receive CAR-T treatment in China?
## 1. **Indications: Preferred Choice for Drug-Resistant/Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma Patients**
CAR-T therapy is typically recommended for multiple myeloma patients who have developed resistance to standard treatments (such as proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulatory drugs, and monoclonal antibodies) and are in their third line of treatment or beyond. In China, CAR-T therapy has broader indications and better efficacy.
### Suitable Patient Types:
-
Relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patients, typically those who have undergone at least second-line treatments.
-
Patients with high-risk genetic characteristics, such as certain mutations (e.g., 17p deletion, t(4;14) translocation).
-
Patients unable to tolerate traditional treatments, including chemotherapy, other targeted therapies, stem cell transplantation, or immunomodulatory treatments, due to poor tolerance or severe side effects.
-
Patients who are BCMA-positive.
-
Patients whose disease continues to progress despite other treatments, especially chemotherapy.
-
Patients who are ineligible for stem cell transplantation.
-
Patients with severe symptoms not responsive to conventional treatments, such as bone pain, anemia, hypercalcemia, and kidney damage.
-
High tumor burden patients—experts generally reduce the tumor burden first before administering CAR-T therapy, often through bridging or sequential treatments.
Among the four global CAR-T products targeting the BCMA marker in multiple myeloma, two Chinese products stand out for their efficacy and affordability. The most effective product currently is IASO Bio’s FUCASO (Equecabtagene Autoleucel), with a complete response (CR) rate of 82.4%.
## 2. **Patients in Good Physical Condition**
CAR-T therapy is essentially a powerful immunotherapy. Although it has remarkable efficacy, it also carries some risks of side effects, including cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxic reactions. China’s CAR-T treatment system is highly developed, with established treatment plans and consensus. The country has extensive experience in managing CRS, neurotoxins, and side effects, keeping the risks very low. Moreover, the expert doctors at Advanced Medicine in China have substantial experience in managing these risks. Nonetheless, patients are typically required to have stable physical health to withstand the risks associated with the treatment.
– Overall good physical function; patients with heart, lung, liver, or kidney dysfunction may require a secondary evaluation by an expert team.
– Patients need to score 0-1 on the ECOG performance status scale, indicating that they are capable of daily activities and self-care.
## 3. **Patients with Financial and Time Support for CAR-T Therapy**
CAR-T therapy’s high cost and complex manufacturing process require patients and their families to have financial support. CAR-T therapy in China is significantly more affordable than in Western countries. While CAR-T treatments in the U.S. may cost $600,000 to $700,000, China’s approved CAR-T treatments cost around $100,000, about one-fifth to one-seventh of U.S. prices. Nevertheless, it remains a high-cost treatment, so patients need to be fully aware of the expenses involved.
China has invested heavily in CAR-T research in recent years. Many top hospitals and research institutions conduct related clinical trials. China accounts for over 50% of global CAR-T clinical trials. If a patient qualifies for a clinical trial, participating in it could be a more economical option, offering access to the latest CAR-T therapies, sometimes costing only tens of thousands of dollars or even free.
The CAR-T treatment process is relatively long. It involves collecting T cells, modifying them, re-injecting them, and close monitoring, requiring the patient to have enough time and patience to complete the entire process. The fastest known case took two weeks to complete all steps and discharge with complete response (CR), but generally, the process takes about four weeks or longer, depending on the patient’s condition.
For patients who can afford the treatment and have the time to complete it, CAR-T therapy in China is undoubtedly an attractive option.
## Conclusion
China’s leading position in CAR-T cell therapy technology and lower treatment costs make it a popular destination for multiple myeloma patients worldwide. It offers new hope for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma patients. By working with experienced medical teams, patients can receive more personalized treatment plans and benefit from the rapid development of CAR-T therapy globally.

Russian Patient Successfully Cured of Follicular Lymphoma(FL) with CAR-T Therapy in China!
**Patient Story – Oleg’s Cancer Journey:**
Today, we share the story of a 46-year-old patient from Russia named Oleg. Oleg was diagnosed with follicular lymphoma and, after multiple rounds of chemotherapy, achieved complete remission. Unfortunately, the disease relapsed, with several enlarged lymph nodes appearing in his abdomen and other areas. Faced with this resurgence, Oleg was determined not to give up and decided to seek new treatment options to improve his quality of life.
**Tailor-Made CAR-T Treatment Plan:**
After extensive research, Oleg contacted us and connected with lymphoma experts from our Advanced Medicine in China team. Through video consultations and detailed discussions, he decided to pursue CAR-T cell therapy. With confidence in the potential of Chinese CAR-T therapy, Oleg and his family traveled thousands of miles to China to begin his CAR-T treatment journey.
Given Oleg’s high tumor burden and relapse after chemotherapy, the Chinese medical team customized a bridging therapy for him, combining targeted drugs with low-dose radiotherapy to reduce the tumor burden and improve the immune environment. Special care was taken when designing the radiotherapy plan, as Oleg still had fertility concerns. The team created a personalized treatment plan that balanced safety and effectiveness. During the treatment process, Oleg experienced almost no significant side effects, demonstrating excellent treatment compliance and tolerance. He maintained a strong relationship of trust and communication with the medical team.
**Complete CR – A New Life After Treatment**
Oleg’s CAR-T cell infusion process went smoothly. Despite a history of migraines, he only experienced mild headaches and low-grade fever after the treatment. Under the meticulous care of the treatment team, the CAR-T cells demonstrated strong anti-tumor effects, with minimal side effects. For a patient with a high tumor burden, he only developed grade 1 cytokine release syndrome (CRS), and his blood counts began to recover about a week after the infusion. Overall, he remained in good condition.
Fifteen days after the CAR-T infusion, an abdominal ultrasound showed significant shrinkage of the enlarged lymph nodes. Three months later, a PET-CT scan brought even more surprising news—Oleg’s tumors had completely disappeared, and his response was evaluated as a complete remission (CR). This meant that Oleg had beaten cancer!
Today, Oleg is doing better and better, running daily. He is especially grateful for the support and care provided by the Advanced Medicine in China team and the Chinese experts. Despite being far from home, he never felt inconvenienced during his treatment in China. The doctors and nurses not only communicated with him patiently but also provided significant help in his daily life.
**Why Choose CAR-T Treatment in China?**
CAR-T therapy has shown remarkable efficacy in treating relapsed and refractory follicular lymphoma, with clinical data showing an objective response rate (ORR) of over 90% and a median duration of response exceeding three years! Oleg’s case is a testament to China’s advanced medical technology. Traditional chemotherapy tends to lose effectiveness after repeated treatments, while CAR-T therapy offers the possibility of curing diseases like follicular lymphoma, which were previously considered incurable.
For patients like Oleg, who seek a high-quality life, China’s CAR-T therapy is bringing new hope. 
**World-Class – China’s CAR-T Indications and Beyond**
Today, China’s CAR-T is not only actively involved in global research but is also leading many developments in the CAR-T field. For patients like Oleg with follicular lymphoma, only China and the U.S. have approved CAR-T products targeting this condition. However, China’s CR rate is notably higher.
Currently, China offers the most extensive range of CAR-T indications, including relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) for first-line, second-line, or third-line treatment failures or relapse; relapsed follicular lymphoma (FL) after second-line treatment; mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) with multiple treatment failures; unspecified DLBCL; large B-cell lymphoma transformed from FL; primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma; and high-grade B-cell lymphoma with MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 rearrangements.

Revolutionizing Cancer Treatment: China’s Groundbreaking CAR-T Therapy Targets Glioblastoma
#CAR_Therapy #Glioblastoma #CancerResearch #InnovativeMedicine
A Chinese medical team has recently made significant progress in t
he field of CAR-T cell therapy, bringing new hope for the treatment of solid tumors such as glioblastoma (GBM). While CAR-T therapy has achieved great success in treating hematologic
al malignancies, its efficacy against solid tumors like glioblastoma remains limited. The innovative research by the Chinese medical team has greatly enhanced the attacking capability of CAR-T cells against solid tumors through the design of high-affinity protein binders from scratch.
The study, published in *Nature Biomedical Engineering* under the title “Targeting overexpressed antigens in glioblastoma via CAR T cells with computationally designed high-affinity protein binders,” presents a novel Binder CAR strategy that replaces the traditional scFv antibody structure. Through computational design, the Chinese research team precisely constructed a new protein binding domain targeting highly expressed antigens in glioblastoma—EGFR and CD276. This new Binder CAR demonstrated significant anti-tumor effects in experiments compared to traditional scFv CAR, especially in the treatment of glioblastoma, a highly malignant tumor. The Binder CAR not only enhanced tumor-killing capacity but also effectively prolonged the survival time of experimental mice.
This groundbreaking technology showcases China’s strong innovative capability in cancer treatment. The Binder CAR can not only identify tumor antigens more stably and efficiently but also reduces the potential T cell exhaustion issues associated with traditional CAR-T therapy, significantly improving treatment durability. In the future, this strategy is expected to be applied to the treatment of other solid tumors, heralding a new era for CAR-T therapy.
China is not only pioneering the era of CAR-T in solid tumors but has also achieved remarkable success in hematological malignancies. Whether it’s the CD19 CAR-T therapy for relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and leukemia that is already on the market, or the BCMA CAR-T therapy for multiple myeloma, China has made substantial progress and is now at the forefront of global CAR-T advancements. Additionally, the number of CAR-T therapies in clinical development is astounding, including dual-target CAR-T therapies targeting CD20, CD22, and CD30, or the recently headline-grabbing universal CAR-T therapies, as well as the explosive news regarding CAR-T therapies for autoimmune diseases. China is in a position of complete leadership. We look forward to bringing more good news to cancer patients worldwide.

In recent years, China has made significant progress in medical innovation, especially in the field of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, dramatically changing the landscape of treatment for malignant blood cancers. Recently, a team of medical professors from Zhejiang, China, released the results of a clinical trial demonstrating the breakthrough effectiveness of fourth-generation anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (R/R LBCL). The study, published in the renowned journal *Cell Discovery* (“Safety and feasibility of anti-CD19 CAR T cells expressing inducible IL-7 and CCL19 in patients with relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma”), sheds light on this innovative approach.
**New Highlights of CAR-T Therapy**
Traditional anti-CD19 CAR-T cell therapy has already shown excellent efficacy in treating blood cancers like R/R LBCL, but tumor relapse remains a significant challenge. To address this, Chinese researchers have developed a new fourth-generation CAR-T cell therapy that co-expresses two cytokines, IL-7 and CCL19. These cytokines enhance the activity of immune cells, improving CAR-T cells’ anti-tumor effects and extending patient survival.
**Efficacy and Potential**
The Chinese medical team included 39 patients, aged 29 to 73, in this study. They received a single infusion of the fourth-generation anti-CD19 CAR-T cells co-expressing IL-7/CCL19. The results showed that within three months of treatment, the overall response rate (ORR) reached 79.5%, with a complete response rate (CR) of 56.4%. This therapy also demonstrated a notable long-lasting effect, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 13 months, and an estimated two-year overall survival rate (OS) of 53.8%.
The study found that the expansion of CAR-T cells in the blood and plasma levels of IL-7/CCL19 were closely associated with clinical outcomes. Higher CAR-T cell expansion and peak concentrations of IL-7/CCL19 were linked to better overall survival (OS), further confirming that this combination can enhance CAR-T cells’ anti-tumor potential.
**Why Is This Study So Important?**
The introduction of this new CAR-T therapy in China marks a significant leap forward in cancer treatment. It not only induces long-lasting remission but also significantly extends patient survival, with manageable safety, offering new hope to patients facing resistant blood cancers. China’s rapid advancements in CAR-T technology showcase its growing influence in the global biotechnology sector.
This groundbreaking research not only solidifies China’s important position in medical innovation but also lays the foundation for future development and application of more CAR-T therapies, potentially bringing revolutionary changes to cancer treatment worldwide.

patient story
#CAR-T #AcuteMyeloidLeukemia #AML #ChinaHealthcare #patientstory #CD33
In the field of cancer treatment, China’s medical advancements have brought new therapeutic opportunities for patients, especially with CAR-T cell therapy. Although CAR-T has achieved significant success in treating lymphoid tumors, its application in myeloid malignancies, particularly acute myeloid leukemia (AML), has been challenging. However, a recent successful case of CD33 CAR-T therapy in China has ignited hope for patients with refractory relapsed AML.
#### Patient Story
The patient is a 25-year-old Chinese male who initially sought medical attention due to dizziness and fatigue. He was eventually diagnosed with high-risk AML associated with the DEK::CAN fusion gene, which has a very poor prognosis. Despite some initial effectiveness of chemotherapy and undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT), the disease relapsed six months later.
After multiple attempts with targeted therapies and donor cell infusions, the results remained unsatisfactory. Just when traditional treatments seemed ineffective and hope was dwindling, the patient sought out my Advanced Medicine in China team.
#### Breakthrough Treatment: China’s CD33 CAR-T
The patient received a consultation and treatment from the medical experts of my Advanced Medicine in China team. After admission and initial preparations, he underwent CD33 CAR-T therapy, an innovative treatment specifically targeting myeloid tumors. After three days of chemotherapy conditioning, the CAR-T cells were infused on day 11. Although there was a mild fever during this period, the patient experienced no significant discomfort. Subsequently, the bone marrow examination revealed astonishing news: leukemia cells had completely disappeared, and the DEK::CAN fusion gene was nearly undetectable, indicating that the disease was in a state of complete remission.
Despite experiencing a lung infection during treatment, the patient’s condition improved after antibiotic therapy. He did not suffer from severe side effects such as persistent cytopenia, and his blood parameters returned to normal. He was ultimately discharged smoothly.
#### Sustained Remission and a Bright Future
Two months after receiving CD33 CAR-T cell therapy, the patient remains in a state of complete molecular remission, with normal blood counts and a significant improvement in quality of life. This case demonstrates that CAR-T therapy not only successfully controlled refractory relapsed AML but also significantly enhanced the patient’s chances of survival and quality of life.

BCMA CAR-T Therapy Paves New Path for Treating High-Risk Multiple Myeloma
**BCMA CAR-T Therapy Paves New Path for Treating High-Risk Multiple Myeloma**
Multiple Myeloma
Multiple Myeloma (MM) is a malignant tumor originating from plasma cells, known for its complex biology and treatment resistance, presenting significant challenges to patients’ survival. For high-risk MM, especially in cases of relapse and refractory disease after multiple lines of therapy, treatment options become critically important. Recently, a team led by Professor Qian from a Chinese Hospital successfully treated a high-risk relapsed/refractory MM (RRMM) patient using BCMA CAR-T cell therapy, offering new hope for difficult-to-treat cases.
**Patient Overview**
The patient, a 56-year-old woman, initially sought treatment for persistent anemia and back pain. Baseline examinations revealed significant abnormalities, including a hemoglobin level of 67g/L, thrombocytopenia, and abnormal bone marrow findings. She was diagnosed with IgG-kappa type MM at stage ISS III/R-ISS III, with cytogenetic abnormalities and high-risk factors such as t(14;16) and 1q21 amplification. The disease rapidly progressed despite multiple lines of therapy, including VRd and DVD regimens, with external manifestations of extramedullary disease (EMD), indicating a poor prognosis.
**Treatment Journey**
The patient initially underwent VRd induction therapy, followed by DVD treatment when the disease progressed. Despite efforts, she developed multiple extramedullary lesions, leading to the use of the Dara+DECP regimen and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). While these treatments provided partial remission, the disease relapsed within months, with extramedullary involvement further complicating the prognosis.
Given the poor prognosis and lack of effective treatments for EMD in MM, the decision was made to pursue BCMA CAR-T cell therapy, specifically with **Equecabtagene Autoleucel**, China’s first CAR-T product for treating MM. This therapy has demonstrated an impressive overall response rate (ORR) of 100% in patients with extramedullary disease, with a complete remission (CR) rate of 78.6%.
**CAR-T Therapy and Outcomes**
Following preconditioning with FC regimen, the patient underwent BCMA CAR-T therapy. After CAR-T infusion, the patient experienced mild cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which was successfully managed with supportive care. Over the course of three months, significant clinical improvements were observed. PET-CT scans showed no residual disease, and bone marrow biopsies were negative for clonal plasma cells. The patient achieved stringent complete remission (sCR).
Eight months after CAR-T therapy, follow-up results continue to show no evidence of disease, with the patient maintaining CR. This case highlights the long-lasting anti-tumor effects of Equecabtagene Autoleucel, a fully human BCMA CAR-T product, which offers low immunogenicity and sustained CAR-T cell persistence in vivo.
**Implications for Future Treatment**
This success story offers new hope for patients with high-risk and refractory MM, especially those with extramedullary involvement. It also provides valuable clinical insights into the use of BCMA CAR-T therapy as a promising treatment strategy. The case demonstrates that for patients with high-risk MM, comprehensive risk assessment considering genetic characteristics, treatment responses, and future treatment plans is essential for personalized care.
In conclusion, the application of Equecabtagene Autoleucel CAR-T therapy represents a significant breakthrough in the treatment of high-risk, refractory MM, particularly in cases involving extramedullary disease. This innovative approach not only extends survival but also enhances the quality of life for patients who have exhausted other treatment options, marking a new chapter in the fight against multiple myeloma.
