Abstract:
Despite of changes in the use of antiviral or chemotherapy regimens, the median survival of patients with AIDS-related lymphoma has not significantly changed until recently. However, partly due to prolonged survival with the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) prognosis in AIDS patients with lymphoma seems to improve. Recently, several new treatment options have been explored in patients with lymphoma. It is hoped that novel strategies will lead to a survival benefit in these patients. In this review, we discuss the current strategies for the treatment of AIDS-related lymphoma.

However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
