CAR T-cell therapy has revolutionized the treatment approach to patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies; however, there continues to be opportunity for improvement in treatment toxicity as well as response durability. Radiation therapy can play an important role in combined modality treatments for some patients undergoing CAR T-cell therapy in various clinical settings. In this review, we discuss the current evidence for RT in the setting of CAR T-cell therapy for patients with hematologic malignancies and propose potential opportunities for future investigation of RT and CAR T-cell treatment synergy. Future research frontiers include investigation of hypotheses including radiation priming of CAR T-cell mediated death, pre-CAR T-cell tumor debulking with radiation therapy, and selection of high risk patients for early radiation salvage after CAR T cell therapy. |
