*In Mantle cell lymphoma, Rituxan-Bendamustine beats R-CHOP
with progression free survival of 69 months vs 31 months and with better toxicity profile
except for skin erythematous lesion often seen with Bendamustine.
A blog about research, awareness, prevention, treatment and survivorship of Breast Cancer and all cancers, including targeted scientific research and a grassroots approach to increase screening for cancer, especially in the low income and under-insured population of El Paso, Texas, with a view to expand this new health care model to many other 'minority' populations across the United States and beyond

SUGGESTION OF TREATMENT OPTIONS IN PATIENTS WITH ACTIVATED B CELL LYMPHOMA AFTER FAILURE OF R-CHOP IF PATIENT IS A POOR CANDIDATE
IN Not transplant candidates:
The options are:
1.Revlimid+ Rituxan
2.Rev+RICE is being trial
3.Reduced Conditioning Allogeneic Transplant
4.R+Bendamustine
5.Whyndam R-EPOCH,
6.Velcade + Chemotherapy in the ABC subtype
Nn CNS prophylaxis, with addition of RITUXAN, the incidence of CNs relapse has decreased.
Large Cell lymphoma with Bone Marrow infiltration in 50% of case it is because of small cell component is actually infiltrating which does impact the prognosis considerably. So, NO CNS prophylaxis supported.
