  1. Goals • Understand the differences between Hodgkin Lymphoma and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma • Clinically and biologically • Understand the differences between aggressive NHL and indolent NHL • Clinically and biologically

  2. C Definition of Lymphoma • Heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative malignancies • Results from clonal expansion of tumor cells derived from B, T, or NK cells • 85%-90% in the US are derived from B cells • Variable clinical presentations • Range from asymptomatic pick up on routine blood work to painless adenopathy to an emergent medical problem • Pain, failure to thrive, organ failure • Characterized by variable natural histories and therapeutic responses

  3. Age at Diagnosis for Hodgkin’s andNon-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma ~56,390 NHL cases/y ~7,350 HD cases/y NHL Cases/100,000 Hodgkin’s Age at diagnosis (y) Data for diagnoses from 1997 to 2001. At: http://seer.cancer.gov. Accessed March 23, 2005.

  4. Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma:Epidemiology Estimated annualincidence ~4% compound annual increase in incidence Year Adapted from Greenlee et al. CA Cancer J Clin. 2001;51:15. Adapted from Jemal et al. CA Cancer J Clin. 2005;55:10.

  5. Hodgkin’s Disease

  6. Hodgkin Biology • RS is a “crippled” germinal center B cell • does not have normal B cell surface antigens • micromanipulation of single RS followed by PCR demonstrates clonally rearranged, but non functional immunoglobulin genes • somatic mutations result in stop codon (no sIg) • no apoptotic death malignant transformation • unclear how this occurs; ? EBV • unclear how cells end up with RS phenotype

  7. Hodgkin’s Disease • Clinical features • Often seen in young adults • Wide variety of presentations • B symptoms (fevers, night sweats, wt loss) • Pruritis • Cough/SOB • Pain • Painless adenopathy

  8. Hodgkin’s Disease • Approach to the Patient • staging evaluation • H & P • CBC, diff, plts • ESR, LDH, albumin, LFT’s, Cr • CT scans chest/abd/pelvis • bone marrow evaluation • PET scan in selected cases

  9. Ann Arbor Staging System for Hodgkin's Disease and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Stage I Stage II Stage III Stage IV Reprinted with permission. Adapted from Skarin. Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Atlas of Diagnostic Oncology. 1991.

  10. Hodgkin’s Disease • Typical staging results • Most often disease is localized to above the diaphragm • Common to have extensive mediastinal disease • Tends to spread to contiguous nodal groups • Unlike NHL

  11. Approach to the Patient • Hodgkin’s Disease • approach dictated mainly by where the disease is located rather (results of staging) than the exact histologic subtype • NHL • approach is often dictated more by the histologic subtype than the results of staging

  12. Hodgkin Lymphoma: Treatment of limited stage disease

  13. Hodgkin Lymphoma: Prognostic Factors

  14. Hodgkins Disease Summary • B cell lymphoma • several histologic subtypes • Generally does not affect the approach to the patient • Reed-Sternberg Cells • Tends to occur in young adults • Mediastinal disease common • Spreads to contiguous nodes • Common to have a “localized” presentation • Highly curable with current treatments

  15. Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma • 30ish histologic subtypes • B cell (85%), T cell, NK cell • Histologic subtype dictates the approach to the patient • Median age at diagnosis 60 • Often widespread disease at diagnosis • Wide variation in outcome • Some cases rapidly fatal • Some cases readily curable • Some cases incurable but patient can live for many years with good quality of life

  22. Lymphoma Biology • Aggressive NHL • short natural history (patients die within months if untreated) • disease of rapid cellular proliferation • Potentially curable with chemotherapy • Indolent NHL • long natural history (patients can live for many years untreated) • disease of slow cellular accumulation • Generally incurable with chemotherapy

  23. NHL: Presentation and Staging • Aggressive NHL • Patients likely to present with symptoms • Indolent NHL • Patients likely to present with painless adenopathy • Initial workup similar to Hodgkin Lymphoma

  24. NHL: Approach to the Patient • Approach dictated mainly by histology • reliable hematopathology crucial • Aggressive NHL • Cure is often the goal • Indolent NHL • Cure is rarely the goal • Control is the goal

  25. Most Common NHLs Armitage JO, Weisenburger DD. J Clin Oncol. 1998;16:2780-2795.

  26. Follicular Lymphoma

  27. Approach to Indolent NHL • Indolent NHL: guiding treatment principle • immediate treatment does not prolong overall survival for many patients • When to treat? • constitutional symptoms • compromise of a vital organ by compression or infiltration, particularly the bone marrow • bulky adenopathy • rapid progression • evidence of transformation • Will often begin with relatively non-toxic treatments and escalate the intensity of the therapy

  28. Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma

  29. Approach to Aggressive NHL • Patients have the potential to be cured • Administer most effective therapy (no matter how harsh) at diagnosis • If not cured, patients typically die within a few years of diagnosis

  32. Summary • NHL incidence increasing • Hodgkin incidence stable or decreasing • Hodgkin Lymphoma • Characterized by the Reed-Sternberg Cells • Stage more important that histologic subtype • Often limited stage (stage I or II) • Spreads to contiguous nodes • Often affects younger patients • Very responsive to therapy • Cure rate quite high

  33. Summary • NHL cure rate mediocre • Many histologic subtypes • Often more important that the stage • indolent vs. aggressive • Function of underlying biology • indolent: • Often asymptomatic • Treatment: Less is more • aggressive: • Often symptomatic • require aggressive treatment ASAP to achieve cure
