EHA 2021: antibody therapies for NHL

Antibody therapies are rapidly transforming the treatment landscape of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Since the development of rituximab as an anti-CD20 antibody, there has been an intense research interest in antibody-based therapeutic approaches. The use of antibody-drug conjugates, monoclonal antibodies, and bispecific antibodies are increasingly being investigated in clinical trials for the treatment of NHL, particularly in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and in the relapsed/refractory setting, offering alternative strategies for disease management.

In this podcast, Gilles Salles, MD, PhD, of the Memorial Sloan Kettering, New York, NY, Martin Hutchings, MD, PhD, of the Copenhagen University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark, Moshe Yair Levy, MD, of the Baylor Charles A. Sammons Cancer Center, Dallas, TX, Paolo Caimi, MD, of the University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center and Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, and Nilanjan Ghosh MD, PhD, of the Levine Cancer Institute, Charlotte, NC, discuss the latest clinical updates on the use of antibody therapies for the treatment of NHL, as presented at the European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress 2021 and the International Conference on Malignant Lymphoma (ICML), 2021.
