Abstract:
More and more studies have found that EBV infection is closely related to the occurrence, development, treatment and prognosis of lymphoma. The treatment of EBV-positive lymphoma bases mainly on combined chemo-radiotherapy together with ganciclovir, acyclovir and other antiviral drugs. Also there are novel ways to treat EBV positive- lymphoma including CD70 monoclonal antibody, butyrate, etc. The only way to prevent EBV infection is to inoculate anti-viral vaccine. The criterion of treating EBV positive-lymphoma remains to be further investigated.
