Core Tip |
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive (ALK+) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) is a rare subtype of diffuse LBCL and is particularly rare in pediatric non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients. The modified LMB89 Group C regimen is effective for ALK+LBCL. Since bone marrow failure occurs after relapse, the patient cannot tolerate intensive chemotherapy, ALK inhibitors combined with low-dose chemotherapy could be considered, and there is still hope for complete remission 2. It is advised that allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation should be performed as soon as possible after remission. |
