Abstract
The rapid development of novel therapeutics in B-cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL) over the past decade has presented a critical inflection point for the field. Bispecific antibodies are one such therapeutic class emerging as an effective, off-the-shelf option for B-NHL. In this review, we focus primarily on Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), highlighting the evolution, comparison, tolerability, ongoing challenges, and future potential of bispecific antibodies that are currently approved or in clinical trials for B-NHL. With the number of anti-lymphoma drugs increasing every year, it is important to optimize clinical trial analysis and design so that outcomes, toxicities, and predictors thereof can be understood and compared amongst therapeutic classes to ensure that patients get the safest and most effective treatments for them at the most appropriate line of therapy.
期刊介绍:
Best Practice & Research Clinical Haematology publishes review articles integrating the results from the latest original research articles into practical, evidence-based review articles. These articles seek to address the key clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach which focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known, covering the spectrum of clinical and laboratory haematological practice and research. Although most reviews are invited, the Editor welcomes suggestions from potential authors.
