Non-GCB Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma With an Atypical Disease Course: A Case Report and Clinical Exome Analysis.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common lymphoid tumor among other non-Hodgkin lymphomas (30-40% of all cases). This type of lymphoma is characterized by significant differences in treatment response and the heterogeneity of clinical traits. Approximately 60% of patients are cured using standard chemotherapy (CT), while in 10-15% of cases, the tumor is characterized by an extremely aggressive course and resistance to even the most high-dose programs with autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT).

Repertoire of Rearranged Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Genes in Russian Patients With B-Cell Lymphoproliferative Diseases.

Introduction: Immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV) repertoire narrowing could be an evidence for the involvement of a limited set of antigens in the development of lymphomas. For chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) the existence of more than 200 subgroups of tumor IGHV antigen-binding sites, so called "stereotypical" antigen receptors (SAR) has been shown. For others lymphomas the possibility of SARs is also suggested.

[Development of program therapy for patients with acute myeloid leukemia under the age of 60 years, based on the principles of differentiated effects].

Aim: To analyze the results of treatment in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) within protocols AML-17 and modified AML-17 (mOML-17) as part of two consecutive pilot studies in order to develop the best treatment strategy for AML patients aged below 60 years.

Materials And Methods: The study included 89 AML patients who were aged below 60 years and received treatment within the AML-17 and mOML-17 protocols. Cytogenetic and molecular genetic studies were performed in all patients.
