Purpose: In patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), brentuximab vedotin (BV) as monotherapy or combined with either lenalidomide (Len) or rituximab (R) has demonstrated efficacy with acceptable safety. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of BV + Len + R versus placebo + Len + R in patients with R/R DLBCL.
Methods: ECHELON-3 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, phase 3 trial comparing BV + Len + R with placebo + Len + R in patients with R/R DLBCL.
Introduction: Histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) and combination chemotherapy are independently used to treat relapsed/refractory (R/R) lymphoma. In vitro studies suggest that the addition of HDACi to platinum-based chemotherapy is synergistic.
Patients And Methods: We conducted a phase I study of romidepsin, gemcitabine, oxaliplatin and dexamethasone (Romi-GemOxD) in R/R aggressive lymphomas with an expansion cohort in T-cell lymphomas.

Treatment for relapsed/refractory (R/R) follicular lymphoma (FL) has evolved over recent years with the introduction of multiple novel immunotherapies: anti-CD3 × CD20 bispecific antibody (BsAb) T-cell engagers and anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T cells (CAR T). Both drug classes are highly active, and their adverse event profiles overlap considerably, with cytokine release syndrome, cytopenias, and infections being most common. However, key differences include accessibility and logistical considerations as well as distinct neurologic toxicities, which make recommending a BsAb or CAR T a nuanced decision for each patient with R/R FL.

The optimal timing of BsAbs and biomarkers of BsAb response after CAR-T are unknown. We addressed these questions using clinical data and blood samples from patients previously treated with CAR-T treated on a phase I/II study of mosunetuzumab (clinicaltrials.
