Panelists engage in a structured debate on whether CAR T-cell therapy for aggressive large B-cell lymphoma should be administered in the inpatient or outpatient setting. Team NYC argues for inpatient treatment in higher-risk or socially complex cases, citing logistical barriers, caregiver limitations, and the need to manage serious toxicities such as CRS and ICANS. Team Roswell counters that outpatient programs can safely expand access, reduce hospital-related complications, and improve patient acceptance of CAR T, prompting a broader discussion on evolving safety data, real-world logistics, and changing regulatory requirements.

Team Roswell presents ABC Consortium real-world data from 15 US centers comparing second-line outcomes with axi-cel, liso-cel, and a third CAR T product in large B-cell lymphoma, including manufacturing timelines, bridging therapy, response, survival, and key toxicities. The discussion highlights faster vein-to-vein time and fewer out-of-spec products with axi-cel, broadly similar efficacy between axi-cel and liso-cel, and higher rates of cytokine release syndrome/neurotoxicity with axi-cel alongside lower acute toxicity with liso-cel. Team NYC cross-examines the interpretation, especially the limited sample for the third product, and the panel pivots to practical post–CAR T survivorship issues like infections, hypogammaglobulinemia, IVIg use, and the need for more standardized supportive-care practices.
