摘要

Purpose

Cancer-related cognitive impairment is one of the symptoms of neurotoxicity among patients receiving chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. Evidence of the overall estimated prevalence of cancer-related cognitive impairment following CAR T-cell therapy among patients with hematologic malignancies at short-term and long-term follow-ups is lacking. This review aimed to summarize the cognitive functioning status and estimate the prevalence of cancer-related cognitive impairment at follow-up within 1 month, 1 to 12 months, and > 12 months after CAR T cell therapy.

Methods

PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, CINAHL Plus, Web of Science, and PsycINFO via ProQuest from inception through August 2024. Studies that reported on cognitive impairment among patients receiving CAR T cell therapy with valid measures were included. Data on cognitive impairment prevalence were pooled using a random-effects model.

Results

In total, 16 studies involving 1407 patients were included. The pooled cancer-related cognitive impairment prevalence rates assessed using neuropsychological tests at the follow-up timepoints (< 1 month, 1–12 months, and > 12 months) were 24% [95% prediction interval (PI) 16–33%], 33% (95%, PI 9–64%), and 35% (95%, PI 23–48%), respectively. The prevalence estimates assessed using other measures were ranging from 4 to 38% across different timepoints. The leave-one-out meta-analyses quantified the impact of these potential outliers on the estimation of the overall prevalence.

Conclusions

The findings stress the importance of developing targeted interventions to prevent or manage cognitive impairment in cancer patients during both short-term and long-term follow-up periods. This review also highlights the need for further research in this area to improve our understanding of the disease mechanisms and implement preventive strategies for managing cancer-related cognitive impairment.
