All TEAEs with grade 1 and 2 occurring in at least three patients (incidence ≥18.8%) and additionally ICANS and all events with grades 3–5 regardless of relatedness to trial treatment are presented. AEs were coded using MedDRA. Maximum severity was graded according to NCI-CTCAE, V.5.0. Grades for CRS and ICANS were determined according to CAR-T cell therapy-associated toxicity (CARTOX) criteria.17 Patients were counted only once per AE and severity classification.
*The patient died from dyspnea, which was not considered related to any trial drug.
