B-cell Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Clinical Trials, Companies, Therapeutic Assessment, Emerging Therapies, Treatment Algorithm, and Pipeline Analysis

"B-cell Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Pipeline Insights" DelveInsight's, 'B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma - Pipeline Insight, 2025' report provides comprehensive insights about 75+ companies and 80+ pipeline drugs in B-Cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma pipeline landscape. It covers the pipeline drug profiles, including clinical and nonclinical stage products. It also covers the therapeutics assessment by product type, stage, route of administration, and molecule type. It further highlights the inactive pipeline products in this space. According to DelveInsight, over 75 major companies are actively engaged in the development of more than 80 treatment therapies for B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma. B-cell Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Overview: B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is a type of cancer that arises from abnormal B lymphocytes—white blood cells essential to the immune system. It accounts for over 85% of all NHL cases, making it the most common subtype. B-cell NHL includes several subtypes, classified based on cell morphology, surface proteins, and genetic traits. Key subtypes include diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL), and Burkitt lymphoma. The disease typically starts in the lymph nodes or lymphoid tissues and can spread to other organs, such as the gastrointestinal tract. Common symptoms include painless swollen lymph nodes, fever, night sweats, fatigue, weight loss, itchy skin, and pain in the chest, abdomen, or bones. When fever, night sweats, and weight loss occur together, they are known as B symptoms and are important for staging and prognosis. Diagnosing B-cell NHL—especially types with small- to medium-sized cells—can be difficult due to their resemblance to reactive lymphadenopathy and other lymphomas. Accurate diagnosis relies on a combination of techniques, including immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry, which must be interpreted in the context of the patient's clinical presentation and cellular morphology. Proper recognition of cytologic features is key to choosing the right diagnostic tests. Subtypes such as marginal zone lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, CLL/SLL, and lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma are often misdiagnosed based on cytology alone. Therefore, a lymph node biopsy is usually necessary for definitive diagnosis and proper classification. "B-cell Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Pipeline Insight 2025" report by DelveInsight provides a comprehensive analysis of the ongoing clinical development activities and growth prospects across the B-cell Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Therapeutics Market.

How to see the letters X and V on the moon tonight

The full moon is a glorious sight, and the sliver of a brand-new moon a wispy delight, but tonight's first-quarter moon has its own unique treat — for a few hours, you can make out the letters X and V on the lunar surface. Here's how. Article content Article content As the photo shows, the lunar X appears about a third of the way from the bottom of the moon, while the Lunar V is a little above the centre. Both features straddle the line between the light and dark sides of the moon, known as the terminator, with the X appearing a little into the dark side, and the V closer to the light side. Article content Why do the letters appear? Article content Article content They're not really there on the surface, and you can't see them at any other time. What you're looking at is called the 'clair-obscur' effect, in which the play of light and shadow on the surface creates the appearance of shapes; in this case, giant letters, formed by the partially lit edges of craters. Article content According to British astronomer Mary McIntyre, the effect kicks off tonight at about 7:30 p.m. ET, and should last about four hours. That means by the time the sun has set and the moon is at its brightest, you should be able to get a good look, clouds permitting. Article content What's the best way to see them? Article content Naked eye is a little tricky, since they are quite small. But decent binoculars (or better yet a small telescope) should bring them into focus. Article content Humans have been looking at the moon since we were human, and through telescopes since they were invented, so it's not surprising that other transient shapes have been noticed and given evocative names, including the jewelled handle, Cassini's moon maiden, Plato's hook and the eyes of Clavius, not to mention the so-called 'man in the moon' that many people see in the full moon. Article content McIntyre has a chart of when to look for them, while BBC's Sky at Night Magazine has a nice picture that shows their locations. The best part about all this is that if you miss them, they'll come back again every 28 days, forever. Article content

Why is there no life on Mars? Rover finds a clue

This image made available by NASA shows the planet Mars. (NASA via AP, File) Why is Mars barren and uninhabitable, while life has always thrived here on our relatively similar planet Earth? A discovery made by a NASA rover has offered a clue for this mystery, new research said Wednesday, suggesting that while rivers once sporadically flowed on Mars, it was doomed to mostly be a desert planet. Mars is thought to currently have all the necessary ingredients for life except for perhaps the most important one: liquid water. However the red surface is carved out by ancient rivers and lakes, showing that water once flowed on our nearest neighbour. There are currently several rovers searching Mars for signs of life that could have existed back in those more habitable times, millions of years ago. Earlier this year, NASA's Curiosity rover discovered a missing piece in this puzzle: rocks that are rich in carbonate minerals. These 'carbonates' -- such as limestone on Earth -- act as a sponge for carbon dioxide, pulling it in from the atmosphere and trapping it in rock. A new study, published in the journal Nature, modelled exactly how the existence of these rocks could change our understanding of Mars's past. Brief 'oases' Lead study author Edwin Kite, a planetary scientist at the University of Chicago and a member of the Curiosity team, told AFP it appeared there were 'blips of habitability in some times and places' on Mars. But these 'oases' were the exception rather than the rule. On Earth, carbon dioxide in the atmosphere warms the planet. Over long timescales, the carbon becomes trapped in rocks such as carbonates. Then volcanic eruptions spew the gas back into the atmosphere, creating a well-balanced climate cycle supportive of consistently running water. However Mars has a 'feeble' rate of volcanic outgassing compared to Earth, Kite said. This throws off the balance, leaving Mars much colder and less hospitable. According to the modelling research, the brief periods of liquid water on Mars were followed by 100 million years of barren desert -- a long time for anything to survive. It is still possible that there are pockets of liquid water deep underground on Mars we have not yet found, Kite said. NASA's Perseverance Rover, which landed on an ancient Martian delta in 2021, has also found signs of carbonates at the edge of dried-up lake, he added. Next, the scientists hope to discover more evidence of carbonates. Kite said the best proof would be returning rock samples from the Martian surface back to Earth -- both the United States and China are racing to do this in the next decade. Are we alone? Ultimately, scientists are searching for an answer to one of the great questions: how common are planets like Earth that can harbour life? Astronomers have discovered nearly 6,000 planets beyond our Solar System since the early 1990s. But only for Mars and Earth can scientists study rocks which allow them to understand the planet's past, Kite said. If we do determine that Mars never hosted even tiny micro-organisms during its watery times, that would indicate it is difficult to kick-start life across the universe. But if we discover proof of ancient life, that would 'basically be telling us the origin of life is easy on a planetary scale,' Kite said.
