[Allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation for indolent lymphomas: Guidelines from the Francophone Society Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. Bull Cancer. 2017 Nov 21;: Authors: Gauthier J, Chantepie S, Bouabdallah K, Jost E, Nguyen S, Gac AC, Damaj G, Duléry R, Michallet M, Delage J, Lewalle P, Morschhauser F, Salles G, Yakoub-Agha I, Cornillon J Abstract Despite great improvements in the outcome of patients with lymphoma, some may still relapse or present with primary refractory disease. In these situations, allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is a potentially curative option, this is true particularly the case of relapse after autologous stem cell transplantation. Recently, novel agents such as anti-PD1 and BTK inhibitors have started to challenge the use of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for relapsed or refractory lymphoma. During the 2016 annual workshop of the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC), we performed a comprehensive review of the literature published in the last 10 years and established guidelines to clarify the indications and transplant modalities in this setting. This paper specifically reports on our conclusions regarding indolent lymphomas, mainly follicular lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia. PMID: 29173973 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
