Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are patients in South Korea with B-ALL, DLBCL, or follicular lymphoma who have received commercial tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah) and consent to long-term data collection.

Probably not a fit

Patients who have not received commercial tisagenlecleucel, those enrolled in the Novartis long-term follow-up protocol CCTL019A2205B, or those who do not consent to data collection would not be included and therefore would not receive benefit from this registry.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This multicenter, non-interventional registry will collect primary data on patients in South Korea who received commercial tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah) for B-cell malignancies. Participants will be followed for 15 years after infusion to record long-term safety events, the incidence of secondary malignancies, and measures of real-world effectiveness. The registry enrolls patients treated in routine clinical practice or under managed access pathways and excludes those already in the Novartis long-term follow-up protocol CCTL019A2205B. Data collection is observational and based on medical records and scheduled follow-up visits without additional experimental interventions.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this registry could clarify long-term safety and secondary malignancy risk and help clinicians and patients make better-informed decisions about Kymriah use in Korea.

How similar studies have gone: Other long-term postmarketing registries and follow-up programs for CAR‑T therapies have produced useful safety and durability data, so the approach is established though some long-term risks remain under study.
