SOHO 2024 | The importance of identifying patients with limited-stage DLBCL

Eliza Hawkes, MBBS Hons, FRACP, DMedSc, Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute at Austin Health, Heidelberg, Australia, comments on the importance of correctly identifying patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who have limited-stage disease as this entity makes up approximately a quarter of all cases of DLBCL. Limited-stage DLBCL may require less treatment than advanced-stage disease, meaning some patients may be over-treated and experience excess toxicity and costs if clinicians do not appropriately stage and prognosticate them. This interview took place at the Twelfth Annual Meeting of the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO 2024) congress in Houston, TX.
