In this video, Brian T. Hill, MD, PhD, of the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio, discusses results of a retrospective review that examined survival and other outcomes in younger mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients who received consolidation with autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) during first remission.
