ASH 2018 | Practice changing abstracts in non-Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Bookmark this article

Did you miss ASH 2018? The Lymphoma Hub attended the 60th ASH Annual Meeting & Exposition, December 1–4 2018, San Diego, CA and has developed a downloadable resource, which provides information on the practice changing abstracts across lymphoma and CLL.

Our selection of ASH 2018 abstracts include comments from The Lymphoma Hub Steering Committee members Stefano Luminari and Gilles Salles on ibrutinib combination therapies for the front-line treatment of CLL, and the role of the lenalidomide and rituximab combination in relapsed follicular lymphoma. Hear from the experts on the role of mutations that confer resistance to venetoclax and whether less is more when it comes to front line treatment in patients with DLBCL.
