Objective: To explore the clinical efficiency and safety of CHOP regimen containing pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) for the aged patients with advanced diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

Methods: Fifty aged patients with advanced DLBCL treated in our hospital from February 2010 to February 2014 were selected and divided into two groups. Out of 50 cases, 25 cases received standard CHOP regimen (sCHOP group), other 25 cases received CHOP regimen containing PLD at dose of 30 mg/m2 (PLD+CHOP). These patients were followed up for 18 months, and the total effective rate, the survival rate and the adverse reaction rate were compared between these two groups.

Results: After receiving different treatments, the survival rate of patients on 6, 12 and 18 months in PLD+CHOP group was 88.0%, 80.0% and 76.0%, respectively, and the survival rate of 18 month was significantly higher than that in the sCHOP group (P<0.05); The total effective rate in the PLD+CHOP group was statistically higher than that in the sCHOP group (P<0.05); and all the incidences of non-hematological toxicity, peripheral sensory neuropathy, lung infection, gastrointestinal reaction and hepatotoxicity were not statistically different between two groups (P>0.05), while the incidence of cardiac toxicity including acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, atrioventricular block (AV block) and paroxysmal atrial tachycardia significantly decreased in the PLD+CHOP group (P<0.05).

Conclusion: The efficiency of CHOP regimen containing PLD for the aged patients with advanced DLBCL has been confirmed to be significant, and its cardiac toxicity is low, thus being worth to be popularized and applied for the treatment of advanced diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

ALK-positive large B-cell lymphoma (ALK+ LBCL) is a rare neoplasm with an aggressive course and poor therapeutic response to the standard R-CHOP regimen. Owing to its negativity for usual B- and T-cell markers and immunopositivity for epithelial markers, it can be easily misdiagnosed if it is not contemplated. To study the clinicopathological parameters of cases of ALK+ LBCL diagnosed at our institution.

Background: Double-expressor lymphoma (DEL) has a poorer prognosis than other subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study is a multicenter, prospective, single-arm, phase 2 clinical study initiated by investigators to evaluate the efficacy and safety of combined zanubrutinib with R-CHOP, which includes rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone for patients with DEL (stage II or more), as well as to explore factors related to efficacy preliminarily.

Methods: From November 2020 to July 2022, 48 newly diagnosed patients were enrolled.

BACKGROUND Simultaneously occuring diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is extremely rare. Generally, patients with CD20-positive DLBCL receive rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisone (R-CHOP) regimen, while those with HL receive brentuximab vedotin, doxorubicin, vinblastine, dacarbazine (A-AVD) regimen as first-line therapy. Establishing a strategy for treating both lymphoma subtypes concurrently is thus very difficult.

Exploring the clinical and pathological characteristics and prognostic factors of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients with TP53 mutation. Data of 86 DLBCL patients with TP53 mutation treated with R-CHOP and 19 DLBCL patients with TP53 mutation treated with R-CHOP like regimen as first-line treatment at the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (CAMS) and the Cancer Hospital of the CAMS in Shenzhen, China, from January 2006 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Multivariate Cox analysis was applied to assess the effects of the factors on survival.

Article Synopsis
  • * A case study of a 53-year-old male with symptoms like weight loss, hoarseness, and dysphagia led to the diagnosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) through a biopsy, following imaging that revealed a significant lesion in the larynx.
  • * The patient successfully underwent eight cycles of CHOP chemotherapy, resulting in complete remission with no recurrence in two years, highlighting the need for early detection and treatment due to symptom similarities with other laryngeal issues.
