The patent application (Publication Number: US20240033358A1) describes a method for treating B-cell lymphoma in a subject with increased levels of MYC gene or anti-apoptotic gene by administering a therapy involving immune effector cells expressing a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) that binds to CD19 along with a BCL2 inhibitor. This combination therapy aims to effectively treat B-cell lymphoma in subjects who may not have responded adequately to CD19 CAR therapy alone.

Furthermore, the patent application details methods for treating relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphoma by administering a BCL2 inhibitor to subjects who have not responded well to CD19 CAR therapy. The application also outlines specific criteria for identifying subjects with MYC-positive lymphomas and the use of BCL2 inhibitors in combination with CD19 CAR therapy. The disclosed methods cover various types of B-cell lymphomas, including high-grade B-cell lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and follicular lymphoma, providing a comprehensive approach to treating these conditions. Additionally, the patent application emphasizes the importance of evaluating subjects for genetic alterations before and during treatment to optimize therapeutic outcomes.
