This randomized trial confirmed a benefit ofHDT in terms of EFS and TwiSTT but did not provide evidence for superiority of HDT over CCT in OS of patients aged 55 to 65 years with symptomatic newly diagnosed MM.

The results indicate that the Ig production by SLE B lymphocytes is largely IL-10 dependent, and that the increased production ofIL-10 by Sle B lymphocyte and monocytes may represent a critical mechanism in the emergence of the autoimmune manifestations of the disease.

HDR with PBSC transplantation obtained a median OS exceeding 5 years in young patients with symptomatic MM, whether performed early, as first-line therapy, or late, as rescue treatment, suggesting early HDT may be preferred because it is associated with a shorter period of chemotherapy.

Arsenic trioxide/IFN treatment is feasible and exhibits an anti-leukemia effect in very poor prognosis ATL patients despite a significant toxicity.
Lymphomas in patients with Sjogren's syndrome are marginal zone B-cell neoplasms, arise in diverse extranodal and nodal sites, and are not associated with viruses.
