Abstract
Over the past three decades, the treatment of lymphoproliferative disorders has undergone profound changes, notably due to the increasing availability of innovative therapies with the potential to redefine clinical management paradigms. A major impact is related to the development of monoclonal antibodies, checkpoint inhibitors, bispecific antibodies, and chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapies. This review discusses the current landscape of clinical trials targeting various hematological malignancies, highlighting promising early-phase results and strategies to overcome resistance. Lymphoproliferative disorders encompass a range of conditions: while in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) the goal is to reduce chemotherapy-related toxicity by integrating immunotherapy into the frontline setting, peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL) lacks effective targeted therapies. The review emphasizes a shifting therapeutic landscape towards precision medicine and treatment modalities that are less toxic yet more effective.
