Background: Obinutuzumab was approved in China in June 2021 used in combination with chemotherapy (followed by obinutuzumab maintenance) for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated stage II bulky, III, or IV follicular lymphoma (FL). The clinical application of obinutuzumab has recently begun in China, but there is a lack of evidence to determine under which circumstances it should be considered the treatment of choice. A comprehensive assessment is necessary to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and cost-effectiveness of obinutuzumab in adult patients with FL.

Recurrent disease or steroid dependence are common, leading to a high steroid burden and the introduction of steroid sparing therapy.

A 66-year-old woman was diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) due to the finding of leukocytosis and started acalabrutinib and obinutuzumab (AO) therapy. After three cycles of AO therapy, she developed severe pancytopenia with hypoplastic bone marrow and was diagnosed with fulminant aplastic anemia (AA) due to neutropenia with no response to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor. One month after the onset of AA, she received HLA-haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) from a daughter using FluMelTBI (fludarabine 180 mg/m, melphalan 80 mg/m, total body irradiation 4 Gy) as the conditioning regimen and tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil, and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis.

Background: While R-CHOP has been one of the standard therapies for untreated high-tumor-burden (HTB) follicular lymphoma (FL) for over 2 decades, obinutuzumab plus bendamustine (OB) is also currently regarded as the standard of care since its approval in 2018 in Japan; however, the long-term efficacy and safety of OB in the daily clinical practice has not been thoroughly evaluated.

Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective study for the clinical outcome of 53 patients with HTB FL treated by OB as the frontline therapy between 2018 and 2021 in the Kyoto Hematology Clinical Study Group (KOTOSG). All patients had at least 2-year follow-up period.

Background: Rituximab is already a standard part of the treatment of patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia. However, a small proportion of patients develop intolerance to rituximab during administration or the treatment is not very effective. In these patients, we are faced with the question of whether another anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody can be used and what result will be achieved.
