Adaptive Manufacturing of LV20.19 CAR T-Cells for Relapsed, Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma (SDCC - Room 6A) - Nov 3, 2023 - Abstract #ASH2023ASH_5208; P1/2 Adaptive MF enriched the final product with higher percentages of T-SCM/T-CM CAR cells and allowed most pts to receive CAR-T cells within 8 days of apheresis. Dual targeting of CD20 and CD19 with CAR-T cells may improve outcomes in pts with relapsed, refractory MCL.

Review, Journal: Role of Postnatal Corticosteroids in the Treatment or Prevention of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 30, 2023 It is seen that the use of hydrocortisone in the early period does not cause negative neuromotor development, but it cannot prevent the development of BPD as much as dexamethasone. All intensive care units must have their steroid protocol for BPD and use steroids in cases when the BPD development scale score is >60-65% and should have a goal of trying to keep the cumulative dose at the lowest level.

Therapeutic lumbar punctures are routinely used in upfront ALL therapy in pediatrics, with a demonstrable safety profile, thus use of intrathecal hydrocortisone merits further prospective studies in patients with severe ICANS.

Journal: Glucocorticoid Replacement for Adrenal Insufficiency and the Development of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.

In patients with adrenal insufficiency, glucocorticoid replacement within a physiological range of 15-25 mg hydrocortisone equivalent per day does not appear to pose an additional risk for the development of NAFLD, subsequent liver fibrosis, or the cardiovascular morbidity associated with these conditions.
