Catherine Diefenbach, MD
10/17/2025

 

At the 2025 Lymphoma, Leukemia & Myeloma (LL&M) Congress in New York, New York, Catherine Diefenbach, MD, Perlmutter Cancer Center, New York, New York, talks about the various approaches to managing diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after first relapse, including the promising efficacy of CAR T-cell therapy compared to autologous stem cell transplant, and highlighting the need to develop bridging therapies through clinical trials for this patient population.
