Dr Valeriya Kuznetsova, a neuropsychologist, joins the Straight and Marrow team to discuss the neurological side effects of CAR T cell therapy, including ICANS (immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome). From confusion and seizures to subtle cognitive changes, we explore how these toxicities manifest, why they occur, and what can be done to monitor and manage them. Tune in as we navigate the intersection of cutting-edge cancer treatment and brain health — and what it means for patients, families, and clinicians alike
