Beyond Chemotherapy: Present and Future Perspectives in the Treatment of Lymphoproliferative Disorders.

Over the past three decades, the treatment of lymphoproliferative disorders has undergone profound changes, notably due to the increasing availability of innovative therapies with the potential to redefine clinical management paradigms. A major impact is related to the development of monoclonal antibodies, checkpoint inhibitors, bispecific antibodies, and chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapies. This review discusses the current landscape of clinical trials targeting various hematological malignancies, highlighting promising early-phase results and strategies to overcome resistance.

Disturbing the Redox Balance Using Buthionine Sulfoximine Radiosensitized Somatostatin Receptor-2 Expressing Pre-Clinical Models to Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy with Lu-DOTATATE.

Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with Lu-DOTATATE improves the outcome of patients with somatostatin receptor (SSTR)-expressing neuroendocrine tumours. Nevertheless, stable disease has been the main response pattern observed, with some rare complete responses. Lu-177 exerts about two-thirds of its biological effects via the indirect effects of ionizing radiation that generate reactive oxygen species, eventually leading to oxidative damage and cell death.

HTLV-1-related adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma: insights in early detection and management.

Purpose Of Review: Adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATL) is an aggressive mature T-cell malignancy that arises in approximately 5% of carriers of human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1), but this risk is not random among carriers. We describe recent advance in pathogenesis, risk factors and for early detection of ATL.

Recent Findings: Unraveling ATL molecular genetics has shed light on pathogenesis and provides insights into novel therapeutic targets.

Brentuximab Vedotin and Pembrolizumab Combination in Patients with Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma: A Single-Centre Retrospective Analysis.

Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients presenting a relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease are currently managed with salvage chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). However, almost 25-30% of these patients fail to achieve a complete response (CR) with standard salvage regimens. In this retrospective study, we evaluated the efficacy of a combination of brentuximab vedotin (BV) and pembrolizumab in a series of HL patients presenting with a high-risk, multi-refractory disease.

Long-term follow-up of 2 patients treated with Y-rituximab radioimmunotherapy for relapse of nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma.

Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is a rare lymphoma (<5% of Hodgkin's lymphomas) predominantly affecting the middle-aged man, with an indolent behavior. Given the rare occurrence of this lymphoma, there are currently no clear guidelines for initial treatment or relapse. In this report, we present the follow-up of 2 patients treated by radioimmunotherapy for first relapse of their NLPHL.

Myocardial inflammation in experimental acute right ventricular failure: Effects of prostacyclin therapy.

Background: Acute transient pulmonary hypertension may induce a state of persistent right ventricular (RV) failure. We hypothesized that this could be related to an activation of inflammatory processes and reduced by prostacyclin therapy.

Methods: Sixteen dogs were assigned to a 90-minute pulmonary artery banding (n = 8), or to a sham operation (n = 8).
