During the European School of Haematology (ESH)'s 2nd How to Diagnose & Treat Lymphoma conference, the Lymphoma Hub spoke to Emmanuel Bachy, Hospices Civils de Lyon, Lyon, FR. We asked, How can we better treat patients with early-relapsing follicular lymphoma?

How can we better treat patients with early-relapsing follicular lymphoma?

Emmanuel Bachy starts by stating that challenges remain in 2020 for treating patients with follicular lymphoma. Patients who relapse in the first 1–2 years after immunotherapy have a 5-year survival of only 40–50%. He goes on to discuss prognostic factors that are available both for prognosis and monitoring after treatment.

Bachy then turns his focus to therapeutic agents. The current available treatments are discussed, with respect to the age and frailty of the patients.
