Lymphoma: turning biology into cures.
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the commonest aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma with approximately 5,000 cases annually in the UK. The R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisolone) regimen has become the international standard of care with cure rates of around 75% and despite extensive studies aimed at improving the outcomes, R-CHOP has not been superseded. Those patients that do not respond to R-CHOP have a poor outlook. DLBCL is a disease with marked molecular heterogeneity; advances in gene expression profiling and mutational analysis can be used to increase our understanding of the disease and identify new therapeutic targets. Precision medicine using new agents, including small molecule inhibitors, is now being investigated for DLBCL. Progress in this disease is likely to come by targeting heterogeneous subtypes through novel combinations. Where R-CHOP fails, we hope that these new approaches can succeed by providing personalised medicine using precision diagnostics to guide new treatment paradigms.
