Lymphoid cancer including Hodgkin disease, non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) and myeloma, represents the most common hematologic malignancy. Despite the overall prognosis improved in the last 10 years, there are many open issues that need to be addressed, specifically refractoriness to standard treatment, disease recurrence and outcome with new drug in the so called "real world" setting. Since the Hematology and Bone Marrow Transplant Unit at "Ospedale Papa Giovanni XIII" of Bergamo has developed specific tools to collect clinical data thought fully validated electronic charts and biological specimens thanks to a regulatory compliant biobanking program, the aim of this study is to collect clinical and biological information of lymphoid cancer patients. The cohort of patients enrolled will permit to analyze the practice pattern, perform biological correlative studies of great translational potential with relevance to clinical practice.
