Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a multi-center, phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of tisagenlecleucel in adult patients with relapsed or refractory FL.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This single-arm, open label study had the following sequential phases: Screening, Pretreatment, Treatment and Follow-up. In the Pre-treatment phase, the patient could undergo bridging therapy (optional) and lymphodepleting (LD) chemotherapy. Treatment and Follow-up Phase included tisagenlecleucel infusion, and safety and efficacy follow-up for at least 24 months. For all the patients who received tisagenlecleucel infusion, additional survival follow-up was to be performed to determine survival status every 3 months.
