Lymphoma News and Research

RSS

Lymphoma is cancer that begins in cells of the immune system. There are two basic categories of lymphomas. One kind is Hodgkin lymphoma, which is marked by the presence of a type of cell called the Reed-Sternberg cell. The other category is non-Hodgkin lymphomas, which includes a large, diverse group of cancers of immune system cells. Non-Hodgkin lymphomas can be further divided into cancers that have an indolent (slow-growing) course and those that have an aggressive (fast-growing) course. These subtypes behave and respond to treatment differently. Both Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas can occur in children and adults, and prognosis and treatment depend on the stage and the type of cancer.

Most T-cell/histocyte-rich large B-cell lymphoma patients can safely receive a less toxic treatment

Most patients with a rare and aggressive form of large B-cell lymphoma can safely receive a less toxic treatment than the intensive chemotherapy often used, according to new research from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

Virtual diet and exercise program shows promise in reducing lymphoma treatment side effects

Patients undergoing treatment for lymphoma often experience adverse side effects that can be so severe that they stop or slow treatment.

Evidence grows for pirtobrutinib as a safer and effective alternative for CLL and SLL

Pirtobrutinib, a non-covalent Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, met the primary endpoint for non-inferiority in terms of overall response rate in the first head-to-head comparison with ibrutinib, a covalent BTK inhibitor.

New trial shows major survival gains with epcoritamab added to standard R2 therapy

In a new trial, patients with follicular lymphoma had a significantly higher response to treatment and a nearly 80% reduction in the risk of death or disease progression if they received epcoritamab in addition to the standard second-line regimen versus the standard regimen alone.

Generative AI aids discovery of ISM3830's novel scaffold

Casitas B-lineage lymphoma-b (CBLB) is an E3 ubiquitin–protein ligase that functions as an intracellular checkpoint and master negative regulator of T‑cell and natural killer (NK) cell activation, playing a central role in modulating T-cell activation and immune tolerance, and its inhibition enhances T cells and NK cells function, also provides a strategy for the function restoration of exhausted T cells.

New consortium aims to fast-track breakthroughs against follicular lymphoma

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is the second most frequent subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a cancer of the immune system. Although the disease is typically incurable, many cases progress slowly and do not require immediate treatment.

New medication offers potential treatment for patients with deadliest form of blood cancer

Biomedical research that began at the University of Virginia School of Medicine has yielded a much-needed new treatment for patients with the deadliest form of blood cancer.

New transplant approach resets the immune system to stop Type 1 diabetes

A combination blood stem cell and pancreatic islet cell transplant from an immunologically mismatched donor completely prevented or cured Type 1 diabetes in mice in a study by Stanford Medicine researchers.

Novel model expands fertility options for cancer patients

In patients of reproductive age who have cancer, fertility preservation for potential children in the future should be a high priority.

Drinking orange juice daily may fine-tune genes tied to cardiovascular wellness

Regular orange juice consumption reprograms immune-cell gene activity linked to blood pressure, lipid metabolism, and inflammation in healthy adults. The molecular effects differ by body weight, suggesting BMI-tailored benefits from this everyday beverage.

Common chemical tetrachloroethylene may be harmful to the liver

Liver disease is usually caused by one of three factors: alcohol consumption, fat buildup in the liver linked to obesity, diabetes and high cholesterol, or hepatitis B and C.

Rare case of pancreatic Hodgkin lymphoma is often misdiagnosed as pancreatic adenocarcinoma

A new case report was published in Volume 12 of Oncoscience on October 6, 2025, titled "A peculiar case of primary lymphoma of pancreas: A rare presentation of Hodgkin lymphoma."

Epigenetic editing enables safer and more effective T cell therapies

Arc Institute, Gladstone Institutes, and University of California, San Francisco, scientists have developed an epigenetic editing platform that enables safe modification of multiple genes in primary human T cells, addressing a key manufacturing and scalability challenge in next-generation cell therapies.

What happens when microplastics reach the testes? Study shows autophagy and cell loss

Researchers found that microplastics from everyday plastic tableware accumulate in human semen and, although not linked to semen quality in the full cohort, were associated with altered sperm parameters in specific subgroups. Experimental models confirmed that 50 nm polystyrene particles trigger autophagy and apoptosis via the FOXA1/MAP3K1/p38 pathway, impairing sperm structure and function.

Combination therapy shows promising results in patients with rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma

Combining an epigenetic therapy with an anti-PD-1 antibody, which uses the body's natural response to viral infections, showed promising results in patients with relapsed or refractory natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (R/R NKTL), a rare and aggressive cancer with limited treatment options.

Age alone may not predict outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia

An international study conducted by the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology and the Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cooperative Group reveals that age-based classifications in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may be outdated and overly simplistic.
