High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (AHSCT) is a standard of care for patients with relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma. Different conditioning regimens before AHSCT have been used, with the 2 most common being BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) and BUCYVP16 (busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide). We retrospectively compared the outcomes of patients treated with BEAM (n = 128) or BUCYVP16 (n = 105) followed by AHSCT. After a median follow-up of 4.2 years for BEAM and 3.8 for BUCYVP16 from AHSCT, the 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 29% with BEAM compared with 56% with BUCYVP16 (P < .001). Median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were not reached with BEAM and were 2.0 and 7.8 years with BUCYVP16, respectively. Improved PFS (P < .001) and OS (P = .001) were observed with BEAM for patients who needed transplant within 24 months from diagnosis and for patients not in complete remission (non-CR; P = .001 and P < .001, respectively) at AHSCT. In this large retrospective comparison the use of BEAM conditioning before AHSCT resulted in a statistically significant improved PFS and OS and lower relapse compared with BUCYVP16. This supports the use of BEAM as a frontline conditioning regimen before AHSCT for early relapsed and non-CR Hodgkin lymphoma.

Hematological malignancies encompass a diverse array of subtypes, contributing to substantial heterogeneity that poses challenges in predicting clinical outcomes. Leveraging the capabilities of nuclear magnetic resonance holds substantial promise in the detection of serum biomarkers and individual metabolic alterations in patients. The study involved the analysis of the sera from patients with acute myeloid leukemia, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma to investigate the impacted metabolites and their associated pathways.

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, highly invasive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The main pathogenesis of MCL is associated with the formation of the IgH/CCND1 fusion gene and nuclear overexpression of cyclin D1, which accelerates the cell cycle, leading to tumorigenesis. The prognosis with current standard chemotherapy is still unsatisfactory.

Zandelisib, a selective, potent PI3Kδ inhibitor, demonstrated favourable outcomes in patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma in a global phase II study. This phase II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of zandelisib for relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma. Sixty-one patients received zandelisib orally at 60 mg daily continuously in the first two 28-day cycles, followed by intermittent dosing on Days 1-7 following each cycle until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity.

CD19 directed chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is now standard of care for relapsed/refractory large B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Despite good overall response rates, many patients still experience disease progression and therefore it is important to predict those at risk of relapse following CAR T-cell therapy. We performed a prospective study using a flow cytometric assay at a single treatment centre to assess early CAR T-cell expansion in vivo 6 - 9 days after CAR-T cell infusion.
