Description
Today on MedNet21, we're going to discuss Lymphadenopathy and New Treatments for Lymphoproliferative Disorders.
Overview of strategies for approaching a patient with undifferentiated lymph node enlargement
including differential diagnosis considerations and considerations related to evaluation and management.
Also, we briefly review novel immune-based treatments in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. We will discuss treatment with Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T cells, which is currently approved in several types of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, as well as the Bispecific T cell engagers (BiTEs).

Objectives
As a result of this educational activity, webcast participants will be able to: review the mechanismsof action and clinical data of (CAR) T cells and BiTEs in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma; highlight unique toxicities associated with CAR T cells and BiTEs: cytokines release syndrome and neurotoxicity; recognize the leading differential diagnosis considerations for
a patient presenting with undifferentiated lymphadenopathy; and Differentiate diagnostic biopsy approaches including fine needle aspiration, core needle biopsy, and excisional lymph node biopsy.
