Mohammed Kharfan-Dabaja of the Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida, and colleagues investigated outcomes in Gray Zone Lymphoma (GZL) patients after autologous stem cell transplant. The findings were published online December 7, 2017, in the journal Biology of Blood and Marrow Transplantation.
Gray Zone Lymphoma has features which are intermediate between Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma and classical Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. GZL is very rare, and there is no standard treatment recommendation for this diagnosis. The goal of this study was to review therapy outcomes for relapsed or refractory GZL after autologous stem cell transplant (SCT).
These findings suggest that autologous transplant may be a suitable treatment option for Gray Zone Lymphoma. The results of this observation should be validated in a larger, prospective study, to confirm outcomes of autologous transplant in this population.
