Abstrakt: | Marginal Zone Lymphoma (MZL) and Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (WM) are indolent lymphomas that both arise from post germinal center lymphocytes. Both can secrete a monoclonal protein but high levels are mostly only seen in WM. The MYD88 L256P somatic mutation that is present in an estimated 95% of patients with WM has helped greatly in differentiating the two lymphomas. Several large clinical studies with new drugs have been performed that have provided new treatment options for both MZL and WM patients. In this short review we will discuss the recent literature published and provide some recommendations. (© 2023 The Authors. Hematological Oncology published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.) |
