Episode 127

First-line Treatment of Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) (EHA2024)

In this podcast, Dr Elisabeth Schorb from University Medical Center in Freiburg, Germany, discusses the first-line treatment of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), which has seen tremendous advances in the last years. PCNSL is a rare condition, and because of its location prompt diagnosis and timely treatment are of the essence.

As for other hematological diseases, treatment of PCNSL today is based on two pillars: induction treatment and consolidation treatment. Listen to Dr Schrob describe her clinical experience and contributions to the international clinical trials that have shifted PCNSL prognosis from a disease with short life-expectancy if left untreated to a curable disease. And get inspired by Dr Schorb’s appeal to “stay tuned, stay in touch because your investigator-initiated ideas can make all the difference”. 

Guest: Dr Elisabeth Schorb
