Lymphoma is one of the ten most common malignancies worldwide. While some lymphomas are curable, the treatment of relapsed and refractory disease remains a substantial challenge. Recent advances have led to the development of a number of new treatment strategies, including novel antibodies targeting surface antigens, small molecular inhibitors targeting oncogenic signalling pathways and tumour suppressors, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells offer the potential for personalised therapy. The emergence of so many new therapeutic options have raised challenges in terms of optimal sequencing and combined approaches, and have highlighted the need for biomarkers to predict therapeutic response.

Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) is an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy approved to treat patients with relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma. We caught up with Dr Jason Westin (The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, ...
The ALPINE study in patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukaemia and small lymphocytic lymphoma has shown that zanubrutinib may offer potential advantages over ibrutinib. In this touchONCOLOGY interview, we speak with Dr Jennifer Brown (Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, ...
Dr William Townsend shares the latest data from the final analysis of the phase III GALLIUM study, which used the glycoengineered type II anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody obinutuzumab plus chemotherapy to follicular lymphoma. The study compared rituximab-based chemotherapy with obinutuzumab-based chemotherapy ...

In part one of this interview, Dr Mazyar Shadman (Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, Seattle, Was, USA) discusses the challenges of CAR-T therapy for follicular lymphoma and the advantages of MB-106, a third-generation, CD20-targeted, autologous CAR-T cell therapy over earlier ...
The ECHELON-1 study compared the experimental brentuximab vedotin plus chemotherapy (A+AVD) to standard ABVD chemotherapy in patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Dr Stephen Ansell (Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA) discusses the design and findings of the study as well ...
Marginal zone lymphoma subtypes Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is an indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that accounts for 5.0%–10.0% of NHLs.1 There are three subtypes of MZL: extranodal (including mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue [MALT]), splenic and nodal.1 Extranodal MZL (EMZL) is the most ...
B-cell signalling pathways are critical regulators of B-cell development, expansion, and survival and function via various mediators, including Src family kinases (SFKs), spleen tyrosine kinase, Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK) and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) (Figure 1).1,2 BTK, a member of ...
The addition of rituximab to chemotherapy provides an overall survival benefit in aggressive lymphomas,1 whereas for indolent lymphoma subtypes this addition has resulted in improvements in progression-free survival.2 For more than two decades, immunotherapy with monoclonal ‘naked’ antibodies targeting CD20 ...
