The treatment landscape for Relapsed Refractory B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL).

The last eight years have seen a rapid expansion of salvage options for patients with relapsed refractory (RR) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The efficacy of targeted approaches with blinatumomab and Inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), outweigh that of conventional chemotherapeutic regimens, and the reduced toxicity profile has also translated into higher transplant realization rates. Factors influencing the sequential use of these two antibodies include the preference for InO in those with high disease burden, while blinatumomab is a superior agent for attaining MRD responses in low disease burden groups. InO should not be used first in those with significant liver disease. Most impressive is the advent of chimeric antigen receptor cell therapy (CAR-T), a curative therapy in a significant proportion of younger patients with RR-ALL. Careful consideration is now required in the selection of relapse therapies; this review summarizes current available strategies and how to navigate the treatment landscape for RR ALL.
