Circulating tumor DNA in NK/T and peripheral T cell lymphoma

Semin Hematol. 2023 Jul;60(3):173-177. doi: 10.1053/j.seminhematol.2023.07.003. Epub 2023 Jul 26.

Abstract

Natural killer (NK)/T-cell lymphomas (NK/TCL) and peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) are aggressive hematological malignancies. With the development of next-generation sequencing, circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) can be detected by several techniques with clinical implications. So far, the effect of ctDNA in pretreatment prognosis prediction, longitudinal monitoring of treatment response and surveillance of long-term remission or relapse in NK/TCL and PTCL has been reported in several researches.

Keywords: NK/T cell lymphoma; Peripheral T-cell lymphoma; Prognosis; Surveillance; Treatment response; ctDNA.
