T-cell Lymphoma

Research

In conjunction with the Department of Dermatology, research at Mayo is focusing on the biology of these diseases, the development of new treatments for patients, and an understanding of the risk factors for getting these diseases. Researchers at Mayo are conducting clinical trails of new drugs as well as immunological therapies to improve the symptoms and outcome of patients with T-cell lymphoma. Large scale epidemiologic studies are also in progress to identify risk factors.
