The Bovin trial shows promising results for TP53-mutated mantle cell lymphoma

The Bovin trial focused on TP53-mutated mantle cell lymphoma, a high-risk subgroup with poor outcomes. The trial combined Zana-brute plus phonetic lacs and a bit of twos map. The results showed a high complete response rate and undetectable minimal residual disease rates. Two-year progression-free survival was over 70%, representing a significant advancement in treatment options for this high-risk patient population.
