In recent classifications several cutaneous lymphomas were reclassified as lymphoproliferative disorder (LPDs). These include primary cutaneous CD4+ small/medium T-cell LPD (PCSM-TCLPD), primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T-cell LPD (acral CD8+ TCLPD) and primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma/LPD (PCMZL/LPD). The latter is still classified as primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma (PCMZL) in the 5th edition of the World Health Organization classification. A survey was previously carried out among 30 cutaneous lymphoma centres on the effects of this new terminology on clinical management. The results revealed considerable heterogeneity and emphasized the need to develop uniform recommendations…

European journal of cancer (Oxford, England : 1990) · 2026
The management of large B-cell lymphomas (LBCL) has undergone major changes over the last 5 years. These changes reflect the availability of new therapies (immunotherapies, cell therapies, targeted molecules), but also a better compartmentalization of the entities and their specific clinical characteristics. Numerous first-, second- and third-line therapeutic strategies are available, and each practitioner is committed to selecting the treatment that offers the best balance between efficacy and toxicity. Advances in the understanding of LBCL biology, coupled with improvements in diagnostic and monitoring tools and therapeutic approaches, have significantly enhanced patient outcomes in recent…

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most frequent histological subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and the paradigm for the management of aggressive lymphoma. An excisional or incisional lymph node biopsy evaluated by an experienced hematopathologist is recommended to establish the diagnosis. Twenty years following its introduction, the combination of rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) remains the standard first-line treatment. No modification of this scheme (increased chemotherapy dose intensity, new monoclonal antibodies, or the addition of immunomodulators or anti-target agents) has significantly improved the clinical outcomes, whereas ther…

The growing use of reduced-dose radiotherapy in patients with primary cutaneous lymphoma is a promising development. Nevertheless, the absence of controlled clinical trials to ascertain standardized doses for each specific type constitutes a significant impediment to the advancement of this field. This expert opinion strongly advocates for advancements in radiation oncology practice that address the unique complexities of primary cutaneous lymphoma. By refining our methodologies, we can optimize patient care and outcomes in this dynamic field.

The treatment landscape of B-cell lymphomas has significantly evolved in recent years with approval of novel targeted therapies. CD3 × CD20 bispecific antibodies and CD19-directed monoclonal antibodies and antibody-drug conjugates have demonstrated efficacy in relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL). Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor-based regimens are emerging as effective treatment options for patients with TP53-mutated classical mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Results from ongoing clinical trials suggest that the addition of CD3 × CD20 bispecific antibodies to chemoimmunotherapy improves outcomes in patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

TFH phenotype and response to tucidinostat in relapsed/refractory PTCL: analysis of patients from a phase IIb trial.
International journal of hematology · 2026 · PMID 42262647
T follicular helper (TFH)-derived peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) harbor frequent mutations in epigenetic regulators and are sensitive to epigenetic therapies. The histone deacetylase inhibitor tucidinostat demonstrated efficacy in relapsed/refractory PTCL, especially angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), in a phase IIb trial; however, the lack of TFH phenotyping has prevented assessment of the predictive value of this phenotype across a broader PTCL spectrum. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed patient…
A distinct CAR-T cell phenotype mediates therapeutic response at limited doses.
Nature communications · 2026 · PMID 42527400
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapies are typically administered at high doses to maximize durable clinical responses. However, manufacturing constraints can limit the production of sufficient cells to achieve the intended dose. Although some patients experience durable responses after receiving lower CAR-T cell doses, the mechanisms underlying efficacy at these limited cell numbers remain poorly understood. To address this, we performed deep phenotyping of anti-CD19 CAR-T cell products and their corresp…

Stem cell collection and hematological recovery in the Fondazione Italiana Linfomi (FIL) MCL0208 clinical trial.
Scientific reports · 2024 · PMID 39043871
In the frontline high-dose phase 3 FIL-MCL0208 trial (NCT02354313), 8% of enrolled mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients could not be randomised to receive lenalidomide (LEN) maintenance vs observation after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) due to inadequate hematological recovery and 52% of those who started LEN, needed a dose reduction due to toxicity. We therefore focused on the role played by CD34 + hematopoietic stem cells (PBSC) harvesting and reinfusion on toxicity and outcome. Overall, 90% (n = 245…
