Background The development of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells has shown promising results in relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-ALL) and diffuse large cell B-cell lymphoma. Complications, especially cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and CAR T-cell related encephalopathy syndrome (CRES), can be life threatening. The management of both plays a key role in CAR T-cell therapy. Objectives Diagnosis, clinical presentation and development of complications in the treatment with CAR T-cells. Materials and methods Summary of incidence, mortality and treatment of severe complications after administration of CAR T-cells referring to current studies and therapy recommendations. Results Complications after administration of CAR T-cells, especially CRS and CRES, can be life threatening. The timely identification of side effects and their appropriate treatment usually leads to complete recovery. Conclusions Using a therapy algorithm in the treatment with CAR T-cells allows safe management of toxicities and can be helpful in recognizing them in time.
