[H1] YESCARTA® is a CAR T-cell therapy made from your own immune system.
[H3] It has helped many patients reach a complete and lasting remission.*
*Complete remission (also known as complete response) is the disappearance of all signs of cancer. It does not always mean that the cancer has been cured.

This testimonial is representative of patients' and caregivers' own experiences. Individual treatment results and experience may vary.
YESCARTA may be an option for some patients with Large B-Cell Lymphoma (LBCL) or Follicular Lymphoma (FL).

[H2] Why YESCARTA?
Over 25,000
patients have been treated with YESCARTA since it was approved in
2017.1 While there are multiple steps in the treatment process,
YESCARTA is a one-time infusion.2
1As
of July 2025, this number includes global internal Kite commercial
and clinical trial data.
2Not including pre-treatment or low-dose
chemotherapy.

[IMG: Purple circle icon with 2x text.]
2nd line LBCL
Two years after
treatment, patients who received YESCARTA were more than twice as likely
to stay event free compared to patients who received standard therapy.
Event-free
survival is the length of time after treatment that patients go without
having their cancer come back, get worse, or experience any other
complications or worsening of symptoms.

YESCARTA® is a prescription medicine used to treat two types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma:

large B-cell lymphoma when your first treatment did not work or your cancer returned within a year of first treatment, OR when at least two kinds of treatment have failed to control your cancer.

follicular lymphoma when at least two kinds of treatment have failed to control your cancer.

YESCARTA is different than other cancer medicines because it is made from your own white blood cells, which have been modified to recognize and attack your lymphoma cells.

Important Safety Information

What is the most important information I should know about YESCARTA?

YESCARTA may cause side effects that are life-threatening and can lead to death. Call or see your healthcare provider or get emergency help right away if you get any of the following:

Fever (100.4°F/38°C or higher)
Difficulty breathing
Chills or shaking chills
Confusion
Dizziness or lightheadedness
Severe nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
Fast or irregular heartbeat
Severe fatigue or weakness

It is important to tell your healthcare provider that you received YESCARTA. Your healthcare provider may give you other medicines to treat your side
effects.

Before getting YESCARTA, tell your healthcare provider about all your medical problems, including if you have or have had:
Neurologic problems (such as seizures, stroke, or memory loss)
Lung or breathing problems
Heart problems
Liver problems
Kidney problems
A recent or active infection
Tell your healthcare provider about all the medications you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

How will I receive YESCARTA?
Since YESCARTA is made from your own white blood cells, your blood will be collected by a process called “leukapheresis” (loo-kah-fur-ee-sis), which will concentrate your white blood cells.
Your blood cells will be sent to a manufacturing center to make your YESCARTA.
Before you get YESCARTA, you will get 3 days of chemotherapy to prepare your body.
When your YESCARTA is ready, your healthcare provider will give it to you through a catheter placed into your vein (intravenous infusion). The infusion usually takes less than 30 minutes.
You will be monitored daily for at least 7 days after the infusion.
You should plan to stay close to a healthcare facility for at least 2 weeks after getting YESCARTA. Your healthcare provider will help you with any side effects that may occur.
You may be hospitalized for side effects and your healthcare provider will discharge you if your side effects are under control, and it is safe for you to leave the hospital.
Your healthcare provider will want to do blood tests to follow your progress. It is important that you do have your blood tested. If you miss an appointment, call your healthcare provider as soon
as possible to reschedule.

What should I avoid after receiving YESCARTA?

Avoid driving for at least 2 weeks after you get YESCARTA.
Do not donate blood, organs, tissues, or cells for transplantation.

What are the possible or reasonably likely side effects of YESCARTA?
The most common side effects of YESCARTA include:
Fever (100.4°F/38°C or higher)
Low white blood cells (can occur with a fever)
Low red blood cells
Low blood pressure (dizziness or lightheadedness, headache, feeling tired, short of breath)
Fast heartbeat
Confusion
Difficulty speaking or slurred speech
Nausea
Diarrhea
YESCARTA may increase your risk of getting cancers including certain types of blood cancers. Your healthcare provider should monitor you for this.

These are not all the possible side effects of YESCARTA. Call your healthcare provider about any side effects that concern you. You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs
to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call
1-800-FDA-1088.

[H2] What are the possible side effects of YESCARTA?

Because YESCARTA is a treatment that works on your immune system, there is a risk that your immune system may become overactive and affect the rest of your body in unwanted ways. You can learn about the
possible side effects of YESCARTA by reading the Important Safety Information.

Two side effects that many patients have experienced are
Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS)?
and Neurotoxicity?:

CRS and Neurotoxicity can become life-threatening and can lead to death. Call or see your healthcare provider or get emergency help right away if you get any of the following:

Fever (100.4°F/38°C or higher)
Difficulty breathing
Chills or shaking chills
Confusion
Dizziness or lightheadedness
Severe nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
Fast or irregular heartbeat
Severe fatigue or weakness

It is important to tell your healthcare provider that you received YESCARTA. Your healthcare provider may
give you other medicines to treat your side effects.

The most common side effects of YESCARTA include:
Fever (100.4°F/38°C or higher)
Low white blood cells (can occur with a fever)
Low red blood cells
Low blood pressure (dizziness or lightheadedness, headache, feeling tired, short of breath)
Fast heartbeat
Confusion
Difficulty speaking or slurred speech
Nausea
Diarrhea
YESCARTA may increase your risk of getting cancers including certain types of blood cancers. Your healthcare provider should monitor you for this.

These are not all the possible side effects of YESCARTA. It’s important to talk to your treatment team about how you are feeling, and let them know if you notice any symptoms. Each
person's experience and potential side effects will be different.

[H2] How will the treatment team manage side effects and keep me safe?
Your safety and care are top priority. There will be multiple safety measures in place throughout your YESCARTA treatment experience:

[H2] What is my role in managing side effects?

Both patients and caregivers play an important role during CAR T treatment. See below for what you can do and how your responsibilities may shift throughout treatment.
Remember that you can always ask your treatment team if you have questions about side effects and how to look for them.

[H2] During YESCARTA infusion and close daily monitoring

To help prepare for your CAR T-cell infusion, your treatment team may give you premedications.
You will be monitored daily for at least 1 week after infusion in case serious side effects happen. During this time, you will be under the care of your treatment team. Serious side effects are most likely in the first few weeks after infusion.

Your treatment team is well equipped to manage and treat side effects. They will regularly complete
health checks? and ask you to do
some simple tasks? to identify and track any symptoms. If needed, they may treat CRS or neurotoxicity with corticosteroids or other medications.

Your treatment team is well equipped to manage and treat side effects. They will regularly complete
health checks? and ask you to do
some simple tasks? to identify and track any symptoms. If needed, they may treat CRS or neurotoxicity with corticosteroids or other medications.

[H4] What you can do

Proactively tell the treatment team if you notice any changes in how you're feeling. Caregivers may be the first to notice side effects, as some symptoms can be difficult for patients to recognize by
themselves.
The treatment team can also answer any questions you may have about side effects and how to look for them.

Learn more about what to expect and how to prepare for this step on the Receiving YESCARTA page.

[IMG: Margaret YESCARTA® (axicabtagene ciloleucel) patient ambassador looking out the window.]

This testimonial is representative of the patient’s own experience. Individual treatment results and experience may vary.

[H2] During continued monitoring

You should plan to stay close to a healthcare facility for at least 2 weeks after infusion, so you can get help quickly if any side effects occur. Your treatment team will let you know where this continued monitoring will take place. Avoid driving for at least 2 weeks after infusion.

[IMG: A caregiver taking a patient]

[H4] What you can do

Follow your treatment team’s instructions for monitoring for signs and symptoms of side effects. You will be responsible for monitoring side effects once you’ve left the center.
Notify your treatment team immediately if you notice any changes. Receiving medical attention right away may keep side effects from becoming more serious.
It is important to tell any healthcare providers you visit that you received YESCARTA, and have your treatment team’s contact information on hand.

Learn more about what to expect and how to prepare for this step on the Receiving YESCARTA page.

[H2] During recovery at home

When the treatment team thinks you are ready—at least 2 weeks after infusion—you'll no longer be required to stay near a healthcare facility. If you had to travel for treatment, this means you can now return home. You may also start returning to your local oncologist for follow-up appointments.

[IMG: A caregiver continuing to take care of a recovering patient at home.]

[H4] What you can do

Continue to look out for side effects and talk to your healthcare teams about how you are feeling. Make sure to attend follow-up appointments. If you miss an appointment, it’s important to reschedule as soon as possible.
You should continue to tell any healthcare providers you visit that you received YESCARTA.

Learn more about what to expect and how to prepare for this step on the Receiving YESCARTA page.

Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS)

SY-toh-kine reh-LEES SIN-drome

CRS happens when your immune system becomes overactive.
After infusion, when the modified T cells recognize and kill cancer cells, they may release proteins called cytokines.

A buildup of cytokines can lead to symptoms including:
fever
chills
rapid heart rate
low blood pressure
low blood oxygen level

CRS can last for about a week and typically occurs in the first few days after infusion, when you are staying at the treatment center under the care of the treatment team.

[H3] Neurotoxicity
NOOR-oh-tok-SIH-sih-tee

Neurotoxicity is a side effect that happens when there is damage to the brain and spinal cord.
Neurotoxicity can cause symptoms like:
changes in the way the brain functions
seizures
changes in level of consciousness
difficulty with speech
tremors
confusion
Symptoms of neurotoxicity can last for 2–3 weeks and typically begin 4–5 days after YESCARTA infusion.

YESCARTA has been studied across multiple clinical trials to look at how well it works, how safe it is, and who it might help. The FDA has approved YESCARTA for multiple uses based on the outcomes of these
trials.

[H2] For LBCL patients whose cancer returned after their first treatment: YESCARTA showed improved results compared to standard therapy.

Trial in LBCL (2nd line)
A clinical trial looked at adult patients with Large B-Cell Lymphoma who have tried one previous treatment that didn’t work or the cancer
came back within 12 months (also called 2nd line). The goal of this trial was to see if YESCARTA improved the clinical outcome for patients when compared to
standard therapy?. Standard therapy in this trial included chemoimmunotherapy,
high-dose therapy, and autologous stem cell transplant, depending on how the cancer responded to treatment.

“My post-CAR T scan showed I was officially in remission! It was a day I had hoped for but feared wouldn’t come. A couple of weeks after that I felt the weight lift from my shoulders.”

[H3] Standard therapy

A standard therapy is a treatment that is accepted by doctors as a suitable and widely used treatment for a certain type of disease. Also called “standard of care.”

[H3] Overall survival
Overall survival (OS) is the length of time that patients remain alive after starting a treatment.
Researchers and doctors use overall survival data to help determine how well a treatment works.

[H3] Event-free survival
In clinical trials, an event is when a patient’s cancer comes back, gets worse, or experiences any other complications or worsening of symptoms.
Event free means a patient has not experienced an event.
Event-Free Survival (EFS) measures the length of time after treatment that patients go without having an event. Researchers and doctors use event-free survival data to help determine how well a treatment works.
