Purpose Of Review: Cancer remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in HIV-infected individuals, with aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma as the most frequent one. However, the introduction of modern antiretroviral therapy (ART) drastically improved treatment options and prognosis in HIV-associated lymphomas. This review summarized the current treatment landscape and future challenges in HIV-positive patients with non-Hodgkin's and Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Recent Findings: Selecting the appropriate therapy for the individual patient, diffuse-large B cell lymphoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, and Hodgkin's disease may be curable diseases. In contrast, the prognosis of plasmablastic lymphoma and primary effusion lymphoma remain poor. New treatment approaches, as targeted therapies or CAR T cell therapy, may broaden the therapeutic armamentarium. The continuous application of ART is mandatory for successful treatment. The choice of lymphoma therapy may follow the recommendations for HIV-negative patients, but prospective trials in HIV-lymphoma are needed.

Feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a physical activity intervention in adults with lymphoma undergoing treatment.
Pilot Feasibility Stud
January 2025
Department of Internal Medicine - Cardiology, Virginia Commonwealth University, West Hospital 8th Floor, North Wing, Richmond, VA, 23298, USA.
Background: To determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a 6-month tailored non-linear progressive physical activity intervention (PAI) for lymphoma patients undergoing chemotherapy.
Methods: Patients newly diagnosed with lymphoma (non-Hodgkin (NHL) or Hodgkin (HL)) were randomized into the PAI or healthy living intervention (HLI) control (2:1). Feasibility was assessed by examining accrual, adherence, and retention rates.
Construction and characterization of chimeric FcγR T cells for universal T cell therapy.
Exp Hematol Oncol
January 2025
Department of Hematology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, 450052, China.
Background: Several approaches are being explored for engineering off-the-shelf chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells. In this study, we engineered chimeric Fcγ receptor (FcγR) T cells and tested their potential as a versatile platform for universal T cell therapy.
Methods: Chimeric FcγR (CFR) constructs were generated using three distinct forms of FcγR, namely CD16A, CD32A, and CD64.
Synchronous clonally related anaplastic large cell lymphoma and malignant histiocytosis.
Diagn Pathol
January 2025
Laboratoire Hospitalier Universitaire de Bruxelles - Universitair Laboratorium Brussel, Université Libre de Bruxelles LHUB-ULB, Brussels, Belgium.
Background: Synchronous malignant histiocytoses are rare conditions that occur concurrently with another hematologic neoplasm. Most reported cases are associated with B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders, while associations with T-cell hemopathies are less common. These two diseases may share mutations and/or cytogenetic anomalies, which can lead to malignant proliferations.

Eur J Clin Nutr
January 2025
Department of Nutrition and Food Safety, School of Public Health, Xi'an Jiaotong University, Xi'an, China.
Background/objectives: Understanding the dynamic changes in nutritional status of patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) during chemotherapy is crucial, as it significantly impacts chemotherapy-related toxicity and survival outcomes.
Subjects/methods: This multi-center study included newly diagnosed NHL patients. Nutritional status and chemotherapy-related toxic effects were assessed over the first five chemotherapy sessions, with follow-ups conducted every 3 months.

Division of Nephrology and Hypertension, Department of Internal Medicine, St. Marianna University School of Medicine, Yokohama City Seibu Hospital, Yokohama, Japan.
Reports of glomerulonephritis associated with lymphoproliferative disorders are common, but reports of minimal change disease (MCD) accompanying non-Hodgkin's lymphoma are rare. Here, we present a case of a 45-year-old woman diagnosed with primary Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) during MCD treatment. Her kidney biopsy revealed endothelial cell injury in parts of the MCD.
