Here, we report for the first time on a patient with chemorefractory-transformed DLBCL showing nodal, extranodal, and massive bone marrow (BM) lymphoma infiltration associated with leukemic involvement, a successful bridge therapy to CD19-directed CAR T cell therapy by subtotal lymphoid/total marrow irradiation plus thiothepa followed by reinfusion of CD34+ autologous hematopoietic stem cells. This evidence concerns the gene CD19 and lymphoma.
