In the largest Latin American cohort of MCL patients, we confirmed the OS benefit promoted by up-front consolidation with ASCT in young and fit patients, regardless of the intensity of the immunochemotherapy regimen used in the pre-ASCT induction. Although HDAC-based regimens were not associated with an unequivocal increase in OS for ASCT-eligible patients, it was associated with higher ORR and lower rates of early relapses for the whole cohort.
