LYMPHOMAS LYMPHOMAS

INTRODUCTION • Lymphomas are cancers that begin by the malignant transformation of a lymphocyte INTRODUCTION • Lymphomas are cancers that begin by the malignant transformation of a lymphocyte in the lymphatic system. – the prefix "lymph-" indicates their origination in the malignant change of a lymphocyte and – the suffix "-oma" is derived from the Greek word meaning "tumor. "

INTRODUCTION • Lymphoma encompasses 2 large groups of neoplasms, namely non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and INTRODUCTION • Lymphoma encompasses 2 large groups of neoplasms, namely non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin disease. • NHL includes many clinicopathologic subtypes, each with distinct epidemiologies; etiologies; morphologic, immunophenotypic, genetic, and clinical features; and responses to therapy.

HODGKIN DISEASE (HD) HODGKIN DISEASE (HD)

Hodgkin’s Disease • Hodgkin disease (HD) is a potentially curable malignant lymphoma with distinct Hodgkin’s Disease • Hodgkin disease (HD) is a potentially curable malignant lymphoma with distinct histology, biologic behavior, and clinical characteristics. • Histologically, the picture is unique, with 1 -2% of neoplastic cells (Reed-Sternberg [RS] cells) in a background of a variety of reactive mixed inflammatory cells consisting of lymphocytes, plasma cells, neutrophils, eosinophils, and histiocytes

Hodgkin’s Disease - In the Beginning First described in 1832 by Dr. Thomas Hodgkin Hodgkin’s Disease - In the Beginning First described in 1832 by Dr. Thomas Hodgkin Neoplasm of B lymphocytes – large pleomorphic prominent nucleolus in a halo - Hodgkin cells Reed-Sternberg cell – binucleate Hodgkin cell with owl eye appearance Classification: Classical Hodgkin’s Nodular sclerosis – low grade Mixed cellularity Lymphocyte rich classical Lymphocyte depleted. – high grade Nodular lymphocyte-rich Hodgkin’s 1798 -1866

Hodgkin’s Disease - Epidemiology • Accounts for ~ 30% of all malignant lymphomas • Hodgkin’s Disease - Epidemiology • Accounts for ~ 30% of all malignant lymphomas • Socioeconomic class is associated with a higher risk of HD. • Composed of two different disease entities: – Lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin’s (LPHD), making up ~ 5% of cases – Classical HD, representing ~ 95% of all HDs. • A common factor of both HD types is that neoplastic cells constitute only a small minority of the cells in the affected tissue, often corresponding to < 2% of the total tumor

Hodgkin’s Disease - Epidemiology • Bimodal age distribution – first peak between 2 nd Hodgkin’s Disease - Epidemiology • Bimodal age distribution – first peak between 2 nd - 3 rd decade of life – second peak between 5 th - 6 th decade of life • Male: Female 2: 1 in kids, adults almost equal M: F • Mixed cellularity (MC) Hodgkin’s Disease is more common at younger ages • More common in immune deficiency patients

Hodgkin’s Disease - Epidemiology • Fatal disease with 90% of untreated patients dying within Hodgkin’s Disease - Epidemiology • Fatal disease with 90% of untreated patients dying within 2 to 3 years • With chemotherapy, >80% of patients suffering from HD are cured. • Pathogenesis of HD is still largely unknown. • HD nearly always arises and disseminates in lymph nodes

H D – Etiology • The etiology of HD is unknown. – Infectious agents, H D – Etiology • The etiology of HD is unknown. – Infectious agents, especially the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), may be involved in the pathogenesis of HD. – Patients with HIV infection have a higher incidence of HD compared to the population without HIV infection. – Genetic predisposition may play a role in the pathogenesis of HD. • Approximately 1% of patients with HD have a family history of the disease. • Siblings of an affected individual have a 3 - to 7 -fold increased risk for developing HD. • This risk is higher in monozygotic twins.

H D - Pathophysiology • The RS cells represent a clonal proliferation of B H D - Pathophysiology • The RS cells represent a clonal proliferation of B lymphocytes that derive from the germinal centers of lymph nodes and that have lost their ability to express their antibodies. • The RS cell is chracterised by its large size and classic binucleated structure with large eosiniphilic nucleoli. • They consistently express CD 15 (Leu-M 1) and CD 30 (Ki-1) antigens. • Some of the clinical manifestations of HD (eg, eosinophilia) are attributed to the production of cytokines.

H D – Imaging studies • Lymphangiography o It is used infrequently because it H D – Imaging studies • Lymphangiography o It is used infrequently because it is technically challenging. o Lymphangiography may demonstrate abnormalities, even in normal-sized lymph nodes. o One additional advantage of this technique is that residual dye may be present in the lymph nodes for months to years, and the size of affected lymph nodes can be followed easily with plain radiographs.

H D – Diagnosis • A histological diagnosis always is required. • Because the H D – Diagnosis • A histological diagnosis always is required. • Because the lymph node architecture is important for histological classification, an excisional lymph node biopsy is recommended. • Staging laparotomy includes splenectomy, needle and wedge biopsy of the liver, and biopsies of the paraaortic, mesenteric, portal, and splenic hilar lymph nodes. • Bilateral bone marrow biopsies - because HD is seen as patchy infiltrates in the bone marrow, bilateral bone marrow biopsies are advised.

H D – Histologic Findings • According to the recent World Health Organization (WHO) H D – Histologic Findings • According to the recent World Health Organization (WHO) classification, the first 4 subtypes are referred to as classic HD. – Nodular sclerosis Hodgkin disease - 60 -80% – Mixed-cellularity Hodgkin disease - 15 -30% – Lymphocyte-depleted Hodgkin disease - Less than 1% – Lymphocyte-rich classic Hodgkin disease - 5%

H D – Histologic Findings • Nodular sclerosis Hodgkin disease – The morphology shows H D – Histologic Findings • Nodular sclerosis Hodgkin disease – The morphology shows a nodular pattern. The broad bands of fibrosis divide the node into "nodules. " The capsule is thickened. The characteristic cell is the lacunar-type RS cell, which has a monolobated or multilobated nucleus and a small nucleolus with abundant and pale cytoplasm. – NS frequently is observed in adolescents and young adults and usually involves the mediastinum and other supradiaphragmatic sites.

Hodgkin’s Disease – Staging • The stage of HD correlates with prognosis. • Also, Hodgkin’s Disease – Staging • The stage of HD correlates with prognosis. • Also, the bulk of nodal disease and the extent of subdiaphragmatic involvement have been found to correlate with prognosis. • Approximately one third of new patients have splenic involvement based on laparotomy data. • Spread in HD takes place via the lymphatics, hematogenous routes, and direct extension. • Contiguous involvement of extranodal sites, eg, involvement of the lung parenchyma due to direct extension of large mediastinal lymphadenopathy, is not considered stage IV disease.

H D – Prognosis • Early stages (I-IIA) - Early-stage disease is considered unfavorable H D – Prognosis • Early stages (I-IIA) - Early-stage disease is considered unfavorable when at least 1 of the following poor prognostic factors is present: o Bulky disease (defined as a mass >5 -10 cm or a mediastinal mass larger than one third of the chest diameter) o Elevated ESR o B-symptoms o Multiple lymph node sites (>3) or extranodal disease

H D – Prognosis • Advanced stages (IIB-IV) – The International Prognostic Factors Project H D – Prognosis • Advanced stages (IIB-IV) – The International Prognostic Factors Project on Advanced Hodgkin's Disease has developed a prognostic score based on 7 adverse factors in advanced HD. These factors are • • (1) an albumin level of less than 4 g/d. L, (2) a hemoglobin level of less than 10. 5 g/d. L, (3) male sex, (4) age older than 45 years, (5) stage IV disease, (6) a WBC count of higher than 15, 000/mm 3, and (7) an absolute lymphocyte count of less than 600/mm 3 or a lymphocyte count of less than 8% of the total WBC count.

H D – Treatment • Radiation therapy - is the use of high-energy x-rays H D – Treatment • Radiation therapy - is the use of high-energy x-rays (or sometimes other radiation) to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. – The involved field encompasses the involved lymph node area plus one contiguous region. – Extended fields are the mantle (encompassing the cervical, axillary, and mediastinal nodes) or the inverted Y (encompassing the paraaortic, pelvic, and inguinal nodes). – Subtotal nodal irradiation involves the mantle plus the paraaortic field. The dose is 40 -45 Gy when given alone or lower (usually 30 Gy) when used in combination with chemotherapy. – The mantle field is shaped accordingly in order to reduce radiation to the heart and lungs. • Careful avoidance of the spinal cord prevents myelitis. Shielding the testes and oophoropexy are important during the reproductive years. If these cannot be ensured, sperm and ova banking may be advisable.

NHL – Diagnosis v. Biopsy of peripheral (or most accessible) lymphadenopathy – Excisional lymph NHL – Diagnosis v. Biopsy of peripheral (or most accessible) lymphadenopathy – Excisional lymph node biopsy is required because lymphoma diagnosis relies heavily on careful assessment of altered nodal architecture accompanying lymphomatous infiltrates. – Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is insufficient for establishing a diagnosis; needle-core biopsies have a limited role in establishing a diagnosis of NHL. – A well-processed hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)– stained section of an excised lymph node is the mainstay of pathologic diagnosis.

NHL – Diagnosis v. Bone marrow aspirate and biopsy – Perform this procedure for NHL – Diagnosis v. Bone marrow aspirate and biopsy – Perform this procedure for staging rather than diagnostic purposes. – Bilateral bone marrow aspirate and biopsy should be performed because bone marrow involvement is usually patchy. – In bone marrow sections, the neoplastic cells may infiltrate in a focal (ie, paratrabecular or nonparatrabecular, depending on the type of lymphoma), interstitial, or diffuse pattern.

NHL – Diagnosis v. Biopsy of extranodal sites – In approximately 30 -35% of NHL – Diagnosis v. Biopsy of extranodal sites – In approximately 30 -35% of adult patients with NHL, the extranodal sites are the primary presenting sites, and the most common site is the GI tract. – Processing extranodal biopsy material for lymphoma protocol studies is important whenever suspicion of a hematolymphoid neoplasm exists. – Lumbar puncture for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination

NHL – Diagnosis • Histologic Findings: – NHLs are a heterogenous group of lymphoproliferative NHL – Diagnosis • Histologic Findings: – NHLs are a heterogenous group of lymphoproliferative malignancies with varying morphologic features depending on the specific type of this disorder. – The abnormal lymphocytes in the lymph node, bone marrow, or extranodal sites can be small cleaved or noncleaved, intermediate, or large cell and can have a follicular or diffuse pattern. – In contrast with reactive follicular hyperplasia, lymphomas usually alter the lymph node architecture, and the capsule is usually involved.

NHL – Diagnosis v Immunophenotypic analysis of lymph node, bone marrow, and/or peripheral blood NHL – Diagnosis v Immunophenotypic analysis of lymph node, bone marrow, and/or peripheral blood – Compliments and confirms the results of routine tissue section and may be useful in resolving a diagnostic dilemma in patients with an atypical morphology. – Helps to distinguish reactive from neoplastic lymphoid infiltrates, lymphoid from nonlymphoid malignancies, and specific lymphoid neoplasms. – Provides information about lineage and clonality, which are complimentary to the histology of a given case. – Useful for subclassifying certain lymphoma subtypes, which has therapeutic and prognostic importance.

NHL – Medical care • A. Indolent stage I and contiguous stage II NHL NHL – Medical care • A. Indolent stage I and contiguous stage II NHL – Involved-field radiation therapy may be the treatment of choice in patients with localized low-grade NHL, especially of the head and neck. For these patients, radiation therapy (2500 -4000 c. Gy) produces a 10 -year failure-free survival (FFS) rate of 50 -60%, with an overall survival (OS) rate of 60 -80%. – Offer adjuvant chemotherapy to selected patients with stage I-II NHL who have unfavorable prognostic factors (eg, B symptoms, >2 nodal sites) and to those with follicular mixed histology.

NHL – Medical care • B. Indolent noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL NHL – Medical care • B. Indolent noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL – Treatment for symptomatic patients includes • (1) purine nucleoside analogues (ie, fludarabine, 2 -CDA), which have significant antitumor activity in low-grade NHL; • (2) oral alkylating agents with or without steroids (ie, cyclophosphamide, chlorambucil); • (3) combination chemotherapy using cyclophosphamide, vincristine, and prednisone (CVP) or cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunomycin, Oncovin (vincristine), and prednisone (CHOP). • (4) intensive therapy with chemotherapy and total body irradiation (TBI) followed by autologous or allogeneic bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplantation, especially for younger patients with poor prognostic factors, is under clinical investigation. • (5) For patients who are unable to tolerate other options, anti-CD 20 monoclonal antibody (rituximab) may be considered as the first-line therapy, either alone or with combination chemotherapy.

NHL – Medical care • A. Aggressive stage I and contiguous stage II (nonbulky NHL – Medical care • A. Aggressive stage I and contiguous stage II (nonbulky or <10 cm) NHL – Patients with intermediate-grade NHL - combination chemotherapy (3 cycles of CHOP) plus involved field radiation therapy. – Patients with high-grade disease should be strongly considered for treatment with more aggressive regimens beyond CHOP.

NHL – Medical care • B. Aggressive noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL NHL – Medical care • B. Aggressive noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL – The treatment of choice for these patients is combination chemotherapy, either alone or supplemented by involved field irradiation. – Doxorubicin-based combination chemotherapy produces long-term disease-free survival (DFS) in 35 -45% of patients. – For intermediate-grade lymphomas, CHOP chemotherapy remains the standard of care at this time.

NHL – Medical care • B. Aggressive noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL NHL – Medical care • B. Aggressive noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL – Autologous and allogeneic bone marrow or peripheral stem cell transplantation for patients at high risk of relapse are under clinical investigation. – Innovative approaches to improve the results of CHOP for patients at high risk of relapse, such as monoclonal antibody therapy, are under clinical investigation. – CNS prophylaxis, usually with 4 -6 injections of methotrexate intrathecally, is recommended for patients with paranasal sinus or testicular involvement, diffuse small noncleaved cell or Burkitt lymphoma, or lymphoblastic lymphoma.

NHL – Medical care • B. Aggressive noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL NHL – Medical care • B. Aggressive noncontiguous stage II, III, and IV NHL – Treatment of acute lymphoblastic lymphoma, a very aggressive form of NHL, is usually patterned after acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy. Intensive combination chemotherapy with CNS prophylaxis is the standard treatment of this aggressive histologic type of NHL. – Other subtypes of high-grade lymphomas are usually treated with more aggressive variations of CHOP chemotherapy, including the addition of high-dose methotrexate or other chemotherapy drugs and higher doses of cyclophosphamide

NHL – Medical care • Further Inpatient Care: – Further inpatient care depends on NHL – Medical care • Further Inpatient Care: – Further inpatient care depends on the patient's active problem, tumor type and stage, and overall prognosis. – Admit patients for complications of disease progression (eg, pain control for intractable pain) or adverse effects from chemotherapy (eg, neutropenic fever, dehydration secondary to diarrhea, vomiting requiring IV hydration, severe mucositis). – Admit patients for infusional chemotherapy or highdose chemotherapy followed by stem cell transplantation.

NHL – Medical care • Further Outpatient Care: – Treatment and follow-up care of NHL – Medical care • Further Outpatient Care: – Treatment and follow-up care of patients with NHL are usually performed on an outpatient basis. – Monitoring the patient's blood cell count while receiving chemotherapy (eg, prior to each treatment cycle and 10 -14 d after each treatment cycle) is important. – Monitor adverse effects of chemotherapy with a detailed patient history, an examination, a CBC count, and chemistries (especially LFTs, electrolytes, LDH, BUN/creatinine). – Treat symptomatic adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, mucositis, anorexia, pain, and fatigue.

NHL – Medical care • Further Outpatient Care: – Administer packed red blood cell NHL – Medical care • Further Outpatient Care: – Administer packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusions for patients with symptomatic anemia and provide platelet transfusions for patients with a platelet count less than 10 -20 k/CU mm. – Provide growth factor (eg, GCSF, GM-CSF, erythropoietin) support as necessary. – Perform a disease and response to treatment evaluation by obtaining patient history, physical examination (at intervals q 2 -3 mo), and imaging studies (eg, CT scans at intervals q 4 -12 mo). – Provide psychosocial support for the patient and family.
