An Insight into Follicular Lymphoma
Dr Joanne Lee shared on the radio station Hao FM on 29 October about Follicular Lymphoma (FL), an indolent form of B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. She explained the function of the lymphatic system, how FL arises, and why many patients may have no symptoms at the start. Dr Lee highlighted that FL is often slowly growing and can behave like a chronic disease and discussed the approach of “watchful waiting,” where patients are carefully monitored until treatment is needed. She also spoke about the latest advances in therapy, including targeted antibodies, bispecific antibodies, and CAR-T cell therapy, which have significantly improved survival and quality of life. FL is highly manageable and controllable, with many patients today living long, fulfilling lives with a normal quality of life!
《深入了解滤泡性淋巴瘤》
李医生于10月29日在好FM电台分享了关于滤泡性淋巴瘤(FL)的专题。滤泡性淋巴瘤是一种惰性生长的B细胞非霍奇金淋巴瘤。她讲解了淋巴系统的功能、FL的形成机制,以及为何许多患者在早期没有明显症状。李医生指出,FL通常生长缓慢,表现得像一种慢性疾病,并介绍了“观察等待”的管理方式,即在病情稳定时密切随访、按需治疗。她还谈到治疗领域的最新进展,包括靶向抗体、双特异性抗体以及CAR-T细胞疗法,这些新技术显著改善了患者的生存率和生活质量。滤泡性淋巴瘤是一种高度可控、可长期管理的疾病,如今许多患者都能过上长期、健康且高质量的生活!
