A Guide To Lymphoma Clinical Trials
Searching for lymphoma clinical trials can be difficult and understanding all treatment options is overwhelming. Patients with lymphoma may be wondering what the right course of action is to decide which treatment option and clinical trial is right for them.
It doesn’t have to be done alone.
We've created an actionable guide that lays out the considerations when dealing with lymphoma treatment and clinical trials to ensure no step is missed and to help manage the process.
Step 1: Understanding Lymphoma
Understanding Lymphoma
Lymphoma is a type of blood cancer that attacks lymphatic tissue and affects lymphocytes, also known as white blood cells. There are two types of lymphoma, Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma represents 85% of all lymphoma cases in the United States.
Nearly 100,000 new cases of lymphoma were estimated in 2020 by the National Cancer Institute, and the 5-year relative survival rate is 72.6%. It represents 4.6% of all new cancer cases in the United States, as the 7th most common cancer type.
Step 2: How Clinical Trials Can Help
How Clinical Trials Can Help
There are approximately 800 clinical trials for lymphoma that are currently recruiting patients in the United States right now.
Current clinical trials are researching new:
- Targeted therapies for new biomarkers
- Combinations of chemotherapies with other drugs
- Immunotherapy drugs, such as CAR T-cell therapy
- Idiotypic vaccination
Participating in a clinical trial not only progresses much needed research but gives patients access to these new innovative therapies years before the general population.
