contents CAR-T cell therapies have demonstrated significant success in treating B-cell leukemia in children and young adults. However, their effectiveness in treating B-cell lymphomas has been limited. Unlike leukemia, lymphoma often manifests as solid masses of cancer cells in lymph nodes, glands, or organs, making these tumors harder to access thus hindering treatment response. In this paper we present a mathematical model that elucidates the dynamics of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and CAR-T cells in a lymph node. The mathematical model aids in understanding the complex interplay between the cell populations involved and proposes ways to identify potential underlying dynamical causes of treatment failure. We also study the phenomenon of immunosuppression induced by tumor cells and theoretically demonstrate its impact on cell dynamics. Through the examination of various response scenarios, we underscore the significance of product characteristics in treatment outcomes.
