Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) comprises three subtypes: extranodal MZL (EMZL), splenic MZL (SMZL) and nodal MZL (NMZL). Since clinical trials have limited representativeness, there is a need for real-world data (RWD) evidence in MZL. Real-world data in Lymphoma and survival in Adults (REALYSA) is a prospective multicentric French cohort of newly diagnosed lymphoma patients.

Ninety-five patients with DLBCL older than 70 years who were treated with immunochemotherapy were included. The lumbar L3 skeletal muscle index (L3-SMI) was measured by computed tomography at baseline, and sarcopenia was defined as low L3-SMI.

Low baseline NK-cell counts (NKCCs) in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are associated with a poor prognosis.

We conducted a REMARC ancillary study analysing the impact of lenalidomide maintenance on the prognostic value of low NKCCs.
