Out of the numerous papers dealing with lymphoma at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) 2015 meeting, three could change clinical practice. The DA-EPOCH-R regimen has improved the evidence for efficacy in Burkitt lymphoma. For lymphoproliferative disease after solid organ transplantation rituximab is a reasonable first-line treatment and nonresponders can be salvaged with R‑CHOP. For anaplastic large cell lymphoma the addition of etoposide to the CHOP regimen is an option. However, better regimens with new drugs are eagerly awaited.
