Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most frequent histology at diagnosis among non-Hodgkin B lymphomas and can be cured in 50-70% of cases after the first-line chemotherapy regimen. Patients who do not respond to first-line treatment can undergo numerous subsequent steps, culminating in allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT). A relapse after alloSCT, however, carries an awful prognosis, seeing the demise of the patient usually in the following months. Here we present the case of a multiple relapsed patient who successfully underwent therapy with pixantrone after alloSCT, obtaining a complete remission without any considerable side effects.
