   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_lymphoblastic_leukemia

   Two subtypes of ALL (B-cell ALL and T-cell ALL) require special considerations when it comes to selecting an appropriate treatment regimen in adults with ALL. B-cell ALL is often associated with cytogenetic abnormalities (specifically, t(8;14), t (2;8), and t(8;22)), which require aggressive therapy consisting of brief, high-intensity regimens.

3. B-cell lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-cell_lymphoma

   The B-cell lymphomas are types of lymphoma affecting B cells. Lymphomas are "blood cancers" in the lymph nodes. They develop more frequently in older adults and in immunocompromised individuals. B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphomas and most non-Hodgkin lymphomas. They are typically divided into low and high grade, typically ...

4. Precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precursor_B-cell...

   Precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia is a form of lymphoid leukemia in which too many B-cell lymphoblasts (immature white blood cells) are found in the blood and bone marrow. It is the most common type of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It is sometimes additionally classified as a lymphoma, as designated leukemia/lymphoma. ALL is the ...

5. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia - Wikipedia

   [19] [20] CLL/SLL MBL consist of two groups: low-count CLL/SLL MBL has monoclonal B-cell blood counts of <0.5x10 9 cells/liter (i.e. 0.5x10 9 /L) while high-count CLL/SLL MBL has blood monoclonal B-cell counts ≥0.5x10 9 /L but <5x10 9 /L. [21] Individuals with blood counts of these monoclonal B-cells >5x10 9 /L are diagnosed as having CLL ...

6. Cancer survival rates - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancer_survival_rates

   Small cell lung cancer has a five-year survival rate of 4% according to Cancer Centers of America's Website. [5] The American Cancer Society reports 5-year relative survival rates of over 70% for women with stage 0-III breast cancer with a 5-year relative survival rate close to 100% for women with stage 0 or stage I breast cancer.

7. B-cell leukemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-cell_leukemia

   A B-cell leukemia is any of several types of lymphoid leukemia which affect B cells. [1] Types include (with ICD-O code): [citation needed] 9823/3 - B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma; 9826/3 - Acute lymphoblastic leukemia, mature B-cell type; 9833/3 - B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia; 9835/3-9836/3 - Precursor B ...

8. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Hodgkin_lymphoma

   The most common chemotherapy used for B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma is R-CHOP, which is a regimen of four drugs (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) plus rituximab. [ 33 ] R-CHP with polatuzumab vedotin , an antibody-drug conjugate, was included as a category 1 preferred regimen for first-line DLBCL by the National ...

9. B cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B_cell

   B cells, unlike the other two classes of lymphocytes, T cells and natural killer cells, express B cell receptors (BCRs) on their cell membrane. [1] BCRs allow the B cell to bind to a foreign antigen, against which it will initiate an antibody response. [1] B cell receptors are extremely specific, with all BCRs on a B cell recognizing the same ...
