Hi Karen,
Thank you for your question. Currently, there are 6 FDA approvals for use of CAR T. However, there are many trials ongoing for other diagnoses. We encourage you to contact our Information Specialists at 800-955-4572 or LLS.org/ContactUs. They can also connect you with out Clinical Trial Support Center if you would like to look into CAR T trials you may be eligible for. You can more information about clinical trial support at LLS.org/CTSC.
