Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: optimizing outcome in the context of clinical and biologic heterogeneity.

TL;DR: It will be necessary to prioritize drugs that affect key driver pathways and to combine them rationally to optimize their benefit and improve prognostication and the availability of predictive biomarkers will be crucial to allow for the possibility of individualized risk-adapted therapy.

The tumour microenvironment in B cell lymphomas

TL;DR: A fundamental understanding of interactions between tumour cells and non-malignant cells gives insight into the pathogenesis of most B cell lymphomas and identifies novel therapeutic opportunities for targeting oncogenic pathways, both now and in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Refinement of the Lugano Classification lymphoma response criteria in the era of immunomodulatory therapy.

TL;DR: A workshop was convened to provide provisional recommendations to modify current response criteria in patients receiving immunomodulatory agents in clinical trials, and the term "indeterminate response" was introduced to identify such lesions until confirmed as flare/pseudo-progression or true PD by either biopsy or subsequent imaging.

Cancer Statistics, 2009

TL;DR: The most recent data on cancer incidence, mortality, and survival from the American Cancer Society (ACS) is presented in this paper, where the authors compare the three major cancer sites in men (lung, prostate, and colon and rectum [colorectum]) and in two major cancers sites in women (breast and colorectal) over a 15-year period.

CHOP Chemotherapy plus Rituximab Compared with CHOP Alone in Elderly Patients with Diffuse Large-B-Cell Lymphoma

TL;DR: A randomized trial to compare CHOP chemotherapy plus rituximab with CHOP alone in elderly patients with diffuse large-B-cell lymphoma found the rate of complete response was significantly higher in the group that received CHOP plus r ituximabs than in thegroup that receivedCHOP alone.

Report of an International Workshop to Standardize Response Criteria for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphomas

TL;DR: Standardized guidelines for response assessment are needed to ensure comparability among clinical trials in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL), and two meetings were convened among United States and international lymphoma experts to develop a uniform set of criteria for assessing response in clinical trials.

Autologous Bone Marrow Transplantation as Compared with Salvage Chemotherapy in Relapses of Chemotherapy-Sensitive Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma

TL;DR: Treatment with high-dose chemotherapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation increases event-free and overall survival in patients with chemotherapy-sensitive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in relapse.

Rituximab-CHOP Versus CHOP Alone or With Maintenance Rituximab in Older Patients With Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma

TL;DR: Rituximab administered as induction or maintenance with CHOP chemotherapy significantly prolonged FFS in older DLBCL patients, which are consistent with an additive effect of ritUXimab.
