Transformation and survival in marginal zone lymphoma: a Finnish nationwide population-based study

Ilja Kalashnikov et al.

Summary: Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is a slow-growing B-cell malignancy, but some patients may undergo transformation to aggressive large B-cell lymphoma. In this population-based study in Finland, the transformation rate of MZL was 4.7% at 10 years, with the highest incidence observed in splenic MZL patients. Transformation was associated with a significantly increased risk of death. The 10-year relative survival rate for MZL patients was 79%, with a reduction in excess mortality in recent years.

Clinico-biological features and outcome of patients with splenic marginal zone lymphoma with histological transformation

Gabriela Bastidas-Mora et al.

Summary: The study describes 36 patients with splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) with transformation, with predictors including cytopenias, hypoalbuminaemia, and complex karyotype. Patients with SMZL-T have a higher risk of death, mostly developing diffuse large B-cell lymphoma post transformation, with predictors for worse survival being high-risk International Prognostic Index and lack of complete response.

Clinical Characteristics, Treatment and Evolution of Splenic and Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphomas-Retrospective and Multicentric Analysis of Portuguese Centers

Catarina Dantas Rodrigues et al.

Summary: The treatment of Splenic and Nodal Marginal Zone Lymphoma is still not standardized, with uncertain outcomes for histologic transformation. Prospective trials are needed to establish a standard treatment protocol. Age has been confirmed as a prognostic factor, emphasizing the importance of personalized treatment strategies.

Impact of rituximab biosimilars on overall survival in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: a Dutch population-based study

Mirian Brink et al.

Summary: The study investigated whether overall survival (OS) of patients with DLBCL receiving R-biosimilars is similar to patients treated with R-originator. Results showed that the 3-year OS did not differ between patients treated with R-originator or R-biosimilars, supporting the use of R-biosimilars in DLBCL treatment management.
