Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this educational activity, the healthcare team will be better able to:

  • Discuss the treatment and management of peripheral T-cell lymphoma
  • Appraise how U.S. T-cell lymphoma treatment experience can impact practice in Asia
  • Summarize the importance of combination therapy in peripheral T-cell lymphoma

Target Audience

Hematologists, oncologists, and other clinicians and scientists with an interest in T-cell lymphoma

Statement of Need

Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) are rare, heterogeneous and aggressive neoplasms that are associated with a poor prognosis. In addition, with current therapies, up to 70% of patients undergo relapse or develop refractory disease. Recent evidence has indicated an increase in the incidence of PTCLs and hence current challenges including pathobiology, clinical management, new drug testing as well as clinical trial accrual, need to be addressed. This activity will provide the healthcare team with the ideal foundation to facilitate progress in PTCL treatment and management.
