On 6 March 2019, Miriam Méndez from University Hospital Puerta de Hierro-Majadahonda, Madrid, SP, and colleagues, published in Hematological Oncology a report on behalf of the Spanish Lymphoma Oncology Group regarding the treatment of transformed follicular lymphoma (tFL) in the rituximab era.
It has been estimated that histological transformation of follicular lymphoma occurs in approximately 10% of FL cases, leading to a transition from an indolent lymphoma to a more aggressive disease phenotype. There is a current need for accurate diagnostic markers and predictors for tFL, as well as efficient treatment strategies to improve patient survival. The main aim of this multicenter, retrospective study was to evaluate patients from the Spanish Lymphoma Oncology Group registry (GOTEL) in order to identify potential early clinical predictors of tFL.
