Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma involving the central nervous system: biologic rationale for targeted therapy
Haematologica. 2023 Sep 14. doi: 10.3324/haematol.2021.278613. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive B-cell lymphoma curable even in advanced stages. DLBCL involving the central nervous system (CNS) is more difficult to cure and fewer treatment options exist. Primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL) refers to aggressive lymphomas confined to the CNS, and are almost always DLBCL. Standard approaches for PCNSL use high-dose methotrexate based combinations as induction therapy and younger patients often receive dose-intensive consolidation. However, dose-intensive therapies are not suitable ...
