REDLAMP 3: Bortezomib-Based Therapy for Newly Diagnosed Mantle Cell Lymphoma

In a recent publication from the New England Journal of Medicine researchers presented results from an investigation into whether the substitution of bortezomib for vincristine in R-CHOP improved patient outcomes for patients newly diagnosed with mantle cell lymphoma. Mantle cell lymphoma is an unusual lymphoma that engenders much debate as to what treatments should be used in patient care. In the below video Dr. John Leonard discusses the efficacy of substituting bortezomib for vincristine in R-CHOP and how this could improve the outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed mantle cell lymphoma.
