Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of invasive non-Hodgkin lymphoma. There is great heterogeneity in its molecular biological characteristics, clinical manifestations and prognosis. The use of rituximab has greatly improved the cure rate of DLBCL, but there are still 30% of patients with poor prognosis. In the era of precision medicine, the significance of molecular biology and genetic factors on the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of patients has been found. Among these, next-generation sequencing technology plays an important role. This paper reviews the research progress of next-generation sequencing technology in the classification, diagnosis, prognosis and molecular targeted therapy of DLBCL.
