Abstract

Mantle cell lymphoma is a hematologic malignancy characterized by poor therapeutic outcomes. Immunomodulatory drugs are a focus of attention in this disease, especially for the elderly and frail patients not able to tolerate the typically intensive therapeutic approaches used in fitter patients. We here present the case of refractory mantle cell lymphoma of the elderly that achieved complete remission following the use of single-agent lenalidomide, and a second complete response to the same regimen on relapse 5 years later.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
