Abstract

Despite excellent cure rates among children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYAs) with mature B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (B-NHLs) treated with chemoimmunotherapy, CAYAs with relapsed/refractory B-NHL remain difficult to treat, with a dismal prognosis. Reinduction and subsequent therapeutic management are not standardized. The armamentarium of active agents against B-NHL, including antibody–drug conjugates, monoclonal antibodies, checkpoint inhibitors, T-cell engagers, CAR T cells, CAR-natural killer (CAR-NK) cells, and cell signaling inhibitors, continues to expand. This article reviews current management practices and novel therapies in this difficult to treat population.
