The disease course of FL is heterogeneous, likely resulting from diverse molecular and immunological features that drive a broad spectrum of clinical presentations. While some patients with low-volume and asymptomatic disease are suitable for observation, patients with high tumor burden, advanced-stage, or symptomatic disease more often necessitate treatment initiation. The decision to begin therapy is personalized and typically initiated when GELF criteria are met. The introduction of novel agents has modified the treatment landscape for FL, allowing for more personalized strategies based on the specific characteristics of patients and diseases. In this review, we discuss the indications for treatment initiation and optimization, focusing on long-term follow-up of pivotal studies and emerging non-chemotherapy regimens.

Traditional immunohistochemical methods for classifying COO subtypes have poor concordance and limited prognostic value in frontline DLBCL. In contrast, RNA-based metrics like the NanoString Lymphoma Subtyping Test (LST) define more robust subtypes with validated prognostic associations. This study introduces gneSeqCOO, an algorithm using bulk RNA Sequencing (RNASeq) profiles of individual tumor biopsies for COO classification based on a fixed reference. This method produced consistent per-sample results and was robust to variation in RNA quality and sequencing bias. Validation in >1000 DLBCL samples showed high concordance with the NanoString LST assay, even in cohorts containing only one COO subtype. gneSeqCOO presents a robust and versatile alternative to existing assays, potentially reducing the need for additional samples where RNASeq was already generated.
