Abstract

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most prevalent subtype of lymphoma, comprising heterogeneous patient subgroups with distinctive biological and clinical characteristics. The R-CHOP combination (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) has been the standard initial treatment, yielding prolonged remissions in over 60% of patients with advanced-stage disease. Several attempts to enhance the outcomes of this regimen over the last two decades have shown limited success. Various novel therapeutic approaches have recently emerged in lymphoma, demonstrating promising results. These include small molecules, novel monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates (ADC), bispecific antibodies (BsAbs), and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. This review explores recent advancements in therapeutic strategies for DLBCL and their potential impact on the initial management of DLBCL patients.
