We aimed to explore the predictive value of total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) and beta-2-microglobulin (B2M) levels in patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) with a high tumor burden receiving standard first-line immunochemotherapy. We analyzed 125 patients with the following characteristics: median age, 61 years (55; 67), advanced-stage disease, 88.8%; high FLIPI, 49.

We conducted a retrospective study of 126 FL patients (grade 1-3a) diagnosed between 2006 and 2020. A dozen of PET/CT-derived features were extracted via a software (Oncometer3D) from baseline F-FDG PET/CT images.

Key Clinical Message: This case report highlights the potential of belinostat for the treatment of relapsed/refractory peripheral T-cell lymphomas, for which effective therapies are still scarce.
Abstract: Peripheral T-cell lymphomas have an aggressive disease course associated with poor outcomes. We report a young patient with highly pretreated relapsed/refractory nodal follicular helper T-cell lymphoma (angioimmunoblastic-type [nTFHL-AI]), who successfully received an allogeneic stem cell transplantation following belinostat therapy.
Background & Aims: We aimed to evaluate body composition (BC) by computed tomography (CT) in hematologic malignancy (HM) patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) for sepsis or septic shock.
Methods: We retrospectively assessed BC and its impact on outcome of 186 patients at the 3rd lumbar (L3) and 12th thoracic vertebral levels (T12) using CT-scan performed before ICU admission.
Results: The median patient age was 58.
