Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cells in Hodgkin and T-Cell Lymphomas

The authors review the current use of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-transduced T cells (CAR-T) in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and T-cell lymphomas (TCL) and discuss the data on CD30-targeting CAR-T cells, which seem to be safe and effective in HL. In addition, the authors examine the use of CAR-T cells targeting CD30, CD5, or CD7 in TCL, while highlighting the unique challenges of their use in this subset of lymphomas. Furthermore, the authors present future directions and ongoing trials investigating the use of CAR-T cells in TCL and HL.
