Abstract:
To date, the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) has lagged behind B-cell malignancies. Traditionally, para-digms for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma were applied to patients with PTCL, but the outcomes were poor. Recently, the FDA has ap-proved four drugs for patients with relapsed/refractory PTCL, and the Japanese government has approved of anti-CCR4 monoclonal an-tibody for patients with adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma. Clinical studies are exploring the combination of these new agents into stan-dard CHOP-based regimens for patients with newly diagnosed PTCL. Recent studies have revealed that PTCL may be associated with epigenetic dysregulation and is thus sensitive to histone deacetylase inhibitors. These advances provide a new understanding of PTCL, whose therapeutic options will be presented in this review.
