The purpose of this presentation is to increase nursing awareness of a new treatment option available for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients. In 2010, a new treatment module was developed for CLL patients with the goal of sustained remissions. This new treatment option called: Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cells therapy (CART-19) are laboratory created T-cells (white blood cells) that have the ability to target the CD19 antigens found on all B-cell malignant tumors (Porter, 2013). Currently, this treatment option is only received in a clinical trial; however, these patients can have serious adverse reactions causing them to seek management in the emergency department. There is a nursing knowledge and skill deficit related to this treatment option. Therefore, formal education is warranted in order to increase awareness and promote health literacy.
