Finally, these patients often develop cytokine release syndrome (CRS) following CTI, which may require treatment with anti-interleukin 6 (IL-6) therapies (eg, tocilizumab), steroids, and admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), with associated increased risk for immunosuppression and nosocomial infections [8] [9] [10] . This study is the first in-depth description of the frequency, type, severity, and risk factors for infections following CD-19 CAR T-cell therapy in children, adolescents, and young adults. In a study of adult CTI recipients, the median time to neutrophil recovery was 6 days, but prolonged cytopenias have been demonstrated previously, even in patients with MRD-negative remission after CAR T-cell therapy [3, 7, 11, 21] . ./cache/cord-010773-z2eogm18.txt ./txt/cord-010773-z2eogm18.txt
