Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Primary refractory disease affects 30-40% of patients diagnosed with DLBCL and is a significant challenge in disease management due to its poor prognosis. Predicting refractory status could greatly inform treatment strategies, enabling early intervention. Various options are now available based on patient and disease characteristics. Supervised machine-learning techniques, which can predict outcomes in a medical context, appear highly suitable for this purpose.
