Clinical Features and Therapeutic Outcomes Comparing Primary Mediastinal Large B-cell Lymphoma to Mediastinal Hodgkin Disease.

Currently, there is limited data available comparing Primary Mediastinal Large B-cell Lymphoma (PMBL) and mediastinal Hodgkin disease, nodular sclerosis type (HDNS). This is a retrospective cohort study that compares the clinical features, histology through immunohistochemistry (IHC) and treatment outcomes of 19 cases of PMBL and 39 cases of HDNS diagnosed over 13 years at a single institution in San Juan, PR. Superior Vena Cava syndrome (SVCS) and elevated Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were more frequently seen in the PMBL cohort.

Early versus late response to daratumumab-based triplet therapies in patients with multiple myeloma: a pooled analysis of trials POLLUX, CASTOR and MAIA.

In multiple myeloma (MM), it is unclear whether early and late responders to daratumumab have similar outcomes. We pooled individual-level data from phase 3 trials and divided them into early and late response groups based on median time to response. Altogether 670 and 213 patients achieved very good partial response (VGPR) or better and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity, respectively.

Venous thromboembolism in patients with multiple myeloma receiving daratumumab-based regimens: a analysis of phase 3 clinical trials.

It is unknown if daratumumab could affect venous thromboembolism (VTE) risks in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). In this study, individual participant data from three trials comparing daratumumab (DARA) and non-DARA regimens, the CASTOR, PULLOX and MAIA trial, were pooled into two groups. A total of 896 and 899 patients received DARA and non-DARA regimens, respectively.
