LYMPHOMAS

Julio Chavez, MD, MS, discusses some of the important studies and research being presented at the 2024 American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting and Exposition.

Zanubrutinib, obinutuzumab, and venetoclax delivered promising response and survival data for the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma harboring a TP53 mutation.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Christopher Maisel, MD, discussed third- and fourth-line therapy and barriers to bispecific therapy use in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the second article of a 2-part series.

The field of Hodgkin lymphoma is undergoing significant advancements, with new drugs entering the frontline and personalized treatment approaches emerging.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Christopher Maisel, MD, discussed the data behind loncastuximab and whether participants with use this treatment for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in the first article of a 2-part series.

The addition of brentuximab vedotin to lenalidomide and rituximab significantly improved survival and response vs lenalidomide/rituximab alone in patients with relapsed/refractory DLBCL.

Golcadomide plus R-CHOP was well tolerated and demonstrated high metabolic response rates that were durable in patients with previously untreated a-BCL.

Denileukin diftitox, an IL-2-receptor-directed cytotoxin, has been added to the NCCN guidelines for the treatment of adult patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma.

Valemetostat showed promise as a treatment option for patients with relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

While challenges exist in treating peripheral T-cell lymphoma, ongoing research is developing more effective therapies.

Reid W. Merryman, MD, discussed the latest developments with minimal residual disease assays in the management of patients with lymphoma.

The phase 3 inMIND trial evaluating tafasitamab in combination with lenalidomide and rituximab in relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma showed promising progression-free survival findings, according to topline results.

Following voluntary withdrawal in 2014, denileukin diftitox is now available again for the treatment of patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma who have received at least 1 prior systemic therapy.

The combination of englumafusp alfa and glofitamab showed a BOR of 67.0% and CR rate of 57.0% in second-line settings. In third-line settings, the BOR was 65.7% and the CR rate was 52.8%.

ATO/ATRA plus idarubicin showed superior 2-year EFS (88% vs 70%) and 5-year EFS (87% vs 55%) compared to ATRA/chemotherapy. The trial indicated lower hematologic toxicity with ATO/ATRA, including reduced rates of thrombocytopenia and neutropenia.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Joanna M. Rhodes, MD, MSCE, discussed issues related to toxicity and dose modification in treating patients with Hodgkin lymphoma.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Matthew Ulrickson, MD, considered treatments for patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with event participants in the second article of a 2-part series.

Findings from a phase 1 trial presented at ASCO showed that axicabtagene ciloleucel was safe with clinical activity seen among patients with relapsed/refractory primary and secondary central nervous system lymphoma.

The FDA has approved the CAR T-cell therapy liso-cel for the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma.

A study found that a novel ointment improved symptoms in patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. The treatment was well-tolerated with minimal adverse effects.

With the FDA clearance of an investigational new drug application for SynKIR-310, a phase 1 trial evaluating the agent in relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas will begin.

During a Case-Based Roundtable® event, Matthew Ulrickson, MD, discussed experiences with loncastuximab and other targeted treatments in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with event participants in the first article of a 2-part series.

Combination therapy with nanatinostat and valganciclovir led to promising response rates among patients with Epstein-Barr Virus-positive peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

The phase 3 STARGLO trial met its primary end point, improving overall survival in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with glofitamab and chemotherapy vs rituximab and chemotherapy.

An investigational new drug application for SynKIR-310's phase 1 trial targeting relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas was submitted to the FDA.
