    Abstract Follicular lymphoma is the second most diagnosed lymphoma in Western Europe. Significant advancements have considerably improved the survival of FL patients. However, 10-20% of these patients are refractory to standard treatments, and most of them will relapse. The treatment of follicular lymphoma patients with multiply relapsed or refractory disease represents an area of high-unmet needing new treatments with stronger efficacy. Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy targeting B-cell antigens, such as CD19 or CD20, is emerging as an efficacious treatment for R/R follicular lymphoma patients, particularly for those with early relapse and refractory to alkylating agents and to anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies, resulting in a high rate of durable responses in a high proportion of patients.

    Abstract Background: Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is a rapidly progressive infiltrative cardiomyopathy, whose role is emerging as a not-so-rare disorder leading to heart failure (HF). Myocardial bridge (MB) is the most common inborn coronary artery variant, and its clinical relevance is still matter of debate. The exceptional coexistence of these two conditions could accelerate disease progression and worsen the already compromised clinical conditions.
    Case summary: We present the case of a 76-year-old female patient experiencing relapsing HF decompensation and presenting to our centre with dyspnoea at rest and severe peripheral congestion. Echocardiogram showed severe concentric hypertrophy, severe biventricular contractile dysfunction, and third-degree diastolic dysfunction. Coronary angiography excluded epicardial atherosclerotic disease, though displaying a long intramyocardial course of left anterior descending artery. Physiological invasive test was achieved in terms of instantaneous wave-free ratio (iFR), both at baseline and after inotropic and chronotropic stimuli, and attested haemodynamic significance. Concurrently, the diagnostic flow chart for CA was accomplished, by means of both invasive (periumbilical fat biopsy, bone marrow aspiration) and non-invasive tests (
    Discussion: Our clinical case shows a unique interaction between infiltrative cardiomyopathy and coronary artery abnormality. Amyloidosis can contribute to the ischaemic burden of the MB and this may, in turn, abbreviate the path to HF decompensation.

    Abstract Purpose: Asymptomatic patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) and a low tumour burden can be followed without initial therapy, a strategy called watchful waiting (WW). Prediction of the time to treatment (TTT) is still a challenge. We investigated the prognostic value of baseline total metabolic tumour volume (TMTV) and whole-body total lesion glycolysis (WB-TLG) to predict TTT in patients with FL on WW.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 54 patients with FL (grade 1-3a) diagnosed between June 2013 and December 2019, staged with FDG PET/CT, and managed on WW. Median age was 62 years (range 34-85), stage was advanced (III-IV) in 57%, and FLIPI score was intermediate to high (≥ 2) in 52% of the patients.
    Results: The median TMTV and WB-TLG were 7.1 and 43.3, respectively. With a median follow-up of 59 months, 41% of patients started immuno-chemotherapy. The optimal cut-points to identify patients with TTT within 24 months were 14 for TMTV (AUC 0.70; 95% CI 51-88) and 64 for WB-TLG (AUC 0.71; 95% CI 52-89) (p < 0.005). The probability of not having started treatment within 24 months was 87% for TMTV < 14 and 53% for TMTV ≥ 14 (p < 0.005). TMTV was independent of the FLIPI score for TTT prediction. Patients with both FLIPI ≥ 2 and TMTV ≥ 14 had only an 18% probability of not having started treatment at 36 months, while this probability was 75% in patients with TMTV < 14.
    Conclusion: Metabolic tumour volume parameters may add information to clinical scores to better predict TTT and better stratify patients for interventional studies.

    Abstract EUS-FNB has been introduced in clinical practice as a less invasive diagnostic approach with respect to surgery. We performed a single-center retrospective study on the diagnostic efficacy of EUS-guided FNB, including 171 patients with lymph nodes, splenic, and extranodal lesions that underwent EUS for FNB at our institution. Excluding 12 patients who did not undergo FNB and 25 patients with a previous diagnosis of a solid tumor, we included 134 patients with clinical/radiological suspect of a lymphoproliferative disease, including 20 patients with a previous history of lymphoma. Out of the 134 biopsies, material of diagnostic quality was obtained in 111 procedures (84.3%). Histological examination of the EUS-FNB samples produced an actionable diagnosis in 100 cases (74.6%). Among the patients without an actionable diagnosis, a second, different diagnostic procedure produced a further eight diagnoses of lymphoma. Therefore, the sensitivity of EUS-FNB for diagnosing lymphomas was calculated to be 86.4% (51/59). Assignment of lymphomas to WHO classification subtypes was possible in 47/51 (92%) of the cases. In conclusion, EUS-FNB is an effective procedure for the histological characterization of lesions that are suspected to be lymphoproliferative disease, allowing for an actionable diagnosis in 75% of cases.
