Treatment options for relapsed aggressive NHL
As a general rule patients who have diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who relapse after initial treatment will be offered an autologous stem cell transplant as the preferred treatment. However not every patient is able, or willing to undergo a stem cell transplant.
There is no single treatment alternative to SCT that is universally accepted as the "best" option for everyone. Therefore on this page we will try to give you a list of treatment options that are being used for relapsed DLBC, and other aggressive forms of NHL. Please be sure to discuss them with your doctor if you find yourself in this situation.
