DLBCL subtypes comprised DLBCL (n = 134), high-grade B-cell lymphoma (BCL; n = 2), aggressive BCL with features intermediate between DLBCL and Burkitt lymphoma (n = 1), mediastinal BCL (thymic large BCL; n = 1), and primary mediastinal BCL (n = 1). In the DLBCL category, transformed disease comprised FL (n = 26), marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (n = 2), lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (n = 1), nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 2), and Richter’s transformation (n = 6).
One patient with FL also had CLL/small lymphocytic lymphoma recurrence.
This patient had a history of DLBCL and was enrolled based on imaging consistent with recurrence. The patient was subsequently biopsied after enrollment, and the lesion determined to be sarcoid.
One patient with DLBCL underwent peripheral stem cell harvest transplantation, and 1 patient with FL underwent double cord transplantation.
