abstract：:Rituximab plus CHOP (R-CHOP) has been proven to increase overall survival in aggressive bcl-2-positive lymphoma patients. Using competing risk analysis, we studied the long-term impact of this treatment in patients from a GELA trial: R-CHOP prevented from progression or relapse in both bcl-2-positive and bcl-2-negativ...

abstract：:Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase degrades the amino acid tryptophan which is essential for T cells. Tryptophan depletion causes T-cell cycle arrest and solid tumors that express high levels of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase can create immune suppression. Recently, blasts of patients with acute myeloid leukemia were shown to e...
