WHY is this medicine prescribed?

Lisocabtagene maraleucel is used to treat certain types of large B-cell lymphoma (a type of cancer that begins in the white blood cells) in certain adults whose cancer has returned or is unresponsive to other treatments. Lisocabtagene maraleucel is also used to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL; a type of cancer that begins in the white blood cells),small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL; a type of cancer that begins mostly in the lymph nodes), follicular lymphoma (FL; a chronic, slow-growing cancer that impacts the white blood cells), or mantle cell lymphoma (MCL; a rare type of cancer that being in the lymph system) that has returned or is unresponsive to at least two other treatments. Lisocabtagene maraleucel is in a class of medications called autologous cellular immunotherapy, a type of medication prepared using cells from the patient's own blood. It works by causing the body's immune system (a group of cells, tissues, and organs that protects the body from attack by bacteria, viruses, cancer cells, and other substances that cause disease) to fight the cancer cells.
