About Lymphomas

What is lymphoma?

Lymphoma is cancer of the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system consists of a network of lymphatic vessels throughout the body, and whose main purpose is to fight infection by lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) and filter lymph fluid, bacteria, viruses and other foreign substances. The lymphatic system includes your lymph nodes, bone marrow, thymus, spleen, tonsils, and lymphoid tissue in the digestive tract.

Lymphoma Clinical Trials at Michigan

At the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center, our Lymphoma Program has a number of studies underway that are only available to our patients. We have extensive experience in selecting the right trial for each person.

Below is a list of open trials. If you see one you may be eligible for, please contact our clinical coordinator at 734-764-1958 (Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm EST) to set up an appointment.

Lymphoma Team Members

Your lymphoma team at the University of Michigan includes a dedicated and collaborative group of physicians, advanced practice providers (nurse practitioners/physician assistants), nurses, and pharmacists with specialized expertise in the care and management of patients with lymphoma. For many patients, a local oncologist is also a critically important member of their lymphoma team, and we look forward to partnering with your local oncologist. For many common lymphomas, standard treatments may be immediately available in your community under the direction of your local oncologist.
