Abstract
Recent progress in understanding of the biology and pathogenesis of peripheral T-cell lymphoma has led to the emergence of new drugs. Unfortunately, this has not been met with similar advances in outcome improvement. Anthracycline-containing regimens, mostly cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP), are considered the standard of care, although the best first-line approach remains to be defined. In the relapsed and refractory settings, several new agents achieved response rates between 10% and 30%, although these drugs do not significantly affect survival rates. Therapeutic options based on better molecular characterization of various histological types and combinations with the CHOP regimen or synergic combinations of new drugs may lead to better outcomes.
