Early On‐Treatment Change in SALT as a Pragmatic Predictor of Ritlecitinib Response in Moderate‐To‐Severe Alopecia Areata: A Real‐World Cohort Study

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Ritlecitinib induced rapid clinical improvement in moderate‐to‐severe alopecia areata in real‐world practice. Early change in SALT at Week 12 strongly discriminated Week‐24 responders, supporting a pragmatic treat‐to‐target checkpoint, alongside improvements in clinician‐reported and patient‐reported outcomes and a favorable safety profile.

Preventing infections after CD19‐directed chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell therapies for lymphoma: a consensus practice statement

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T‐cell therapies directed against cluster of differentiation 19 (CD19) are a standard of care for relapsed or refractory B‐cell lymphomas. Infection is the leading cause of non‐relapse mortality, and this risk may persist for years after CAR T‐cell receipt.
