New Approaches for Treatment of Advanced Extranodal NK/T-Cell Lymphoma

Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKL) is a rare subtype of lymphoma that shows a poor clinical outcome. The most common sites are the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, paranasal sinuses, tonsils and larynx. Because of P-glycoprotein expression on ENKL cells, ENKL is resistant to anthracycline-based chemothe...

Sumario:Extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma (ENKL) is a rare subtype of lymphoma that shows a poor clinical outcome. The most common sites are the nasal cavity, nasopharynx, paranasal sinuses, tonsils and larynx. Because of P-glycoprotein expression on ENKL cells, ENKL is resistant to anthracycline-based chemotherapy. L-asparaginase-based chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy shows promising outcomes for advanced ENKL, but has limited efficacy in relapsed/refractory ENKL. immune-checkpoint inhibitors, histone deacetylase inhibitors, and monoclonal antibodies are being investigated. In this review, we summarize the new treatments for ENKL.
