Article Synopsis
- Watchful waiting is a viable management option for advanced-stage, low tumor burden patients with follicular lymphoma, but predicting how long this observation period will last is challenging.
- The study found that higher total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) at diagnosis correlates with shorter observation periods, with patients having a TMTV above 50 mL experiencing significantly less time before requiring treatment.
- TMTV emerged as a strong predictor of time to first treatment, suggesting that once validated, it could help inform decisions about starting or delaying treatment for patients with low tumor burden follicular lymphoma.
