Data from the phase 3 MANGROVE study support the application for zanubrutinib/rituximab in this mantle cell lymphoma population.

In the phase 2 DALY 2-EU trial, zamto-cel prolonged median event-free survival vs R-GemOx in transplant-ineligible relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma.

Rocbrutinib plus R-CHOP yielded a 100% ORR and an 86.7% CR rate in 15 patients with untreated non-GCB DLBCL, warranting randomized evaluation.

Grade 3/4 neurotoxicity in patients prompted a partial clinical hold on the PALISADES-1 and PALISADES-2 trials of KITE-753 in large B-cell lymphoma.
