ASCO 2024 | Evolution of the treatment landscape for patients with CNS lymphoma

Lakshmi Nayak, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, highlights how the treatment landscape for patients with primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma has evolved in recent years. Whilst a few decades back, the only options available were chemotherapy and radiation, there are now several new therapies and immunotherapies being investigated, and patients seem to be responding. Dr Nayak hopes this translates into longer survival and better preservation of neurologic function. This interview took place during the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Meeting in Chicago, IL.
