Abstrakt: Background: In the past decade, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells have successfully treated cancers, especially hematologic malignancies. Although many articles have been published on CAR T-cell therapy for hematologic malignancies, bibliometric analysis remains unexplored. Aim: This study aimed to investigate and analyze existing trends and active research areas on CAR T-cell therapy for hematologic malignancies, providing novel perspectives for clinical decision-making and scientific research. Method: From 2000 to 2023, the Web of Science Core Collection was searched for articles published on CAR T-cells for the treatment of hematologic malignancies. Comprehensive visual analyses of annual publication, country, institutions, authors, co-cited references, and keywords were performed using CiteSpace software and VOSviewer. Results: A total of 2,451 articles on CAR T-cells were published to treat hematologic malignancies from 01 January 2000 to 31 August 2023. The United States, China, and Germany were the top three nations in publications. In the keyword analysis, "immunotherapy" and "chimeric antigen receptor" were used most frequently. Moreover, the yellow node, which included terms such as "chimeric antigen receptor T cells," "efficacy," "CAR T-cell therapy," "toxicity," "CAR-NK," and "tumor microenvironment" were most active research areas. Conclusion: This study provided a comprehensive analysis of publications on CAR T-cell therapy for hematologic malignancies from 2000 to 2023. The findings provide current trends and potential hotspots in CAR T-cell therapy for hematologic malignancies and contribute valuable direction for future studies in this field.
