In classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL), responsiveness to immune-checkpoint blockade (ICB) is associated with specific tumor microenvironment (TME) and peripheral blood features. The role of ICB in nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is not established. To gain insights into its potential in NLPHL, we compared TME and peripheral blood signatures between HLs using an integrative multiomic analysis.

MRD by multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC-MRD) utilises the leukaemia-associated immunophenotype (LAIP) and difference from normal (DfN) strategies to identify the leukaemic clone. Difficulties arise when the LAIP overlaps with normal regeneration, there is clonal evolution, or when the abnormal clone population is exceptionally small e.

Methods: We performed an international multicenter retrospective study of patients with RT who received CAR-T.
Objectives: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) reactivation is the leading viral complication after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Understanding of circulating cytokine/chemokine patterns which accompany HCMV reactivation and correlate with HCMV DNAemia magnitude is limited. We aimed to characterise plasma cytokine/chemokine profiles in 36 allo-HSCT patients (21 with HCMV reactivation and 15 without HCMV reactivation) at four time-points in the first 100-day post-transplant.
