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.

- - The phase II trial assessed the effectiveness of the RiBVD treatment (rituximab, bendamustine, velcade, and dexamethasone) in patients over 65 with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), which resulted in a median progression-free survival of 79 months and overall survival of 111 months.
- - TP53 mutation status and albumin levels were identified as significant prognostic factors, with TP53 mutations linked to a higher risk of shorter progression-free survival and overall survival in the analyzed patient population.
- - A scoring system combining TP53 mutation status and albumin levels allowed differentiation of patient outcomes, indicating varying survival rates based on the presence of these factors, thus enhancing prognostic assessments
Article Synopsis
- Real-world data (RWD) are crucial for enhancing clinical trial (CT) findings, but challenges like data quality persist; the REALYSA study, launched in 2018, focuses on newly diagnosed lymphoma patients in France.
- A proof-of-concept analysis of 645 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) found high data completeness (<4% missing) and revealed good survival rates, with a median follow-up of 9.9 months showing 1-year event-free survival of 77.9% and overall survival of 90.0%.
- The study also assessed how well REALYSA's patient outcomes matched those from recent phase 3 trials (POLARIX and SENIOR), demonstrating
Article Synopsis
- Rituximab treatment is more effective than the 'watch and wait' approach for low-tumor burden follicular lymphoma, improving progression-free survival (PFS) but maintenance therapy raised concerns about resource use and patient adherence.
- A study compared intravenous (IV) rituximab and subcutaneous (SC) rituximab adminstration in patients, demonstrating better 4-year PFS rates in the experimental SC group (58.1% vs 41.2%).
- While high exposure to rituximab during the first three months led to improved response rates, time to next treatment (TTNT) and overall survival (OS) showed no significant differences between the two approaches.
