Notably, in retrospective analyses of patients with DLBCL receiving rituximab (R) plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP; R-CHOP), the ABC subtype has been associated with less favourable outcomes compared with the GCB subtype [6, 7]. Here, DDIT3 is linked to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
