1 Lymphoma in South East Asia

2 45-yo man presented with cervical LNs enlargement for 3 months He reported low grade fever in the evening with dry cough for 4 weeks He has no known medical history Positive findings Multiple cervical LNs enlargement (diameter 3-5 cm) Non-tender, movable, rubbery consistency

3 Lymphadenopathy in Lymphoma o Painless superficial lymphadenopathy is an initial presentation in 90% of patients o Neck 75% ; axillary and groin 25% o Firm and rubberry o Variation in size o Duration varied o o Indolent lymphoma : > 6months to years Aggressive lymphoma : 1-3 months o Maybe transient or wax and wane o Alcohol-inducing pain : HL

4 45-yo man presented with cervical LNs enlargement for 3 months CBC: Hb 11.4 g/dl WBC 9,800/uL N 69%, L 24%, M7%) Platelet 279,000/uL o 3T/1L o Thymoma o Substernal thyroid o Teratoma : germ cell tumors o Lymphoma

5 Diagnostic tests for lymphadenopathy Lymph node biopsy Open biopsy The best diagnostic test esp. lymphoma The biggest node (> 2 cm) If no single node predominates : prefer supraclavicular > neck > axilla > inguinal Persist for longer than 4-6 wks Progressively increasing in size Immunophenotypic studies is required for subclassification Core needle biopsy If an intact node is not easily accessible Fine needle aspiration (FNA) Cytology Reserved for established diagnosis or recurrence of cancer Not adequate for diagnosis of lymphoma Avoid FNA if suspected lymphoma since a repeat biopsy needs to be performed Infection : special stains, culture Abscess : bacteria TB

6 45-yo man presented with cervical LNs enlargement for 3 months Pathological report of lymph node Diffuse large cell lymphoma Further immunohistochemistry are recommended

7 Lymphoma Biologically and clinically heterogeneous group of lymphoproliferative disease Characterized by the clonal expansion of malignant cess of B-, T-, NK-cell origin Natural history, prognosis and therapeutic approach are dependent upon the specific subtype of NHL

8 How To Approach Patient With Lymphoma Presentation Lymphadenopathy vs. lymphocytosis FUO with cytopenia Diagnostic tools and classification: Clinical course Indolent vs. aggressive lymphoma B-symptoms WHO classification HL vs NHL B vs. T/NK cell lymphoma Staging (Ann Arbor) Prognostication IPI, FLIPI, MIPI, genetic and molecular profiling Plan of treatment (curative vs. palliative) Evaluation of response and follow-up

9 Lymphoma vs Leukemia Lymphoma Presentation with mass Mature lymphoid malignancy Example Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) Lymphoblastic lymphoma Leukemia Presentation with abnormal circulating cells Either precursor (ALL) or mature lymphoid malignancy Example Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)

10 Indolent vs Aggressive lymphoma Indolent Aggressive Age Elderly Any age Duration of symptoms Long > 6 months Short < 3 months Systemic symptoms Uncommon Common Stage I-II > III-IV Any Extranodal involvement Yes Yes Prognosis Limited stage : curable Advanced stage : incurable Treatment I-II : IFRT Symptomatic III-IV : systemic chemotherapy Curable Death would be inevitable In incurable cases Chemotherapy

46 Gastric MALT lymphoma Lymphoepithelial lesions are characteristic of lymphoma and are not commonly seen in reactive infiltrates Staining for CD43 frequently seen in MALT, may be helpful in determining the neoplastic nature of the infiltrate Normal B-cells are negative It also present on cells of B- cell CLL/SLL and MCL

47 Scenarios of multistep development of gastric MZBCL. Chronic H. pylori (HP) infection induces lymphoid tissue neogenesis Bende, et al. Haematologica 2009;94:

48 Eradication Therapy for H. pylori in Patients With Gastric MALT Lymphoma: A Pooled Data Analysis Data from 32 studies with 1, 480 treated patients The MALT lymphoma remission rate was 77.5% Higher RR in Patients with stage I than stage II lymphoma (78.4% vs 55.6%; P =.0003) Patients in Asian than in Western groups (84.1% vs 73.8%; P =.0001) Patients without the API2 MALT1 translocation than in those with this translocation (78% vs 22.2%; P =.0001) Neoplasia confined to the submucosa than that with deeper invasion (82.2% vs 54.5%; P =.0001) Lymphoma localized to the distal stomach than those with disease involving proximal stomach (91.8% vs 75.7%; P =.0037) Zullo, et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2010;8:

49 Predictive factors for gastric lymphoma remission following H pylori eradication Zullo, et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2010;8:

50 EGILS consensus report: Gastric Malt lymphoma H pylori eradication cures gastric MALT lymphoma only in stage IE and, to a much lesser percentage, in stage IIE It is preferable to eradicate H pylori in all cases as it is a trigger of the immune response Treatment of H pylori infection is the first step in the management of gastric MALT lymphoma independent of the stage of disease Ruskone-Fourmestraux, et al. Gut 2011;60:747e758

51 Treatment plan for gastric MALT lymphoma Newly diagnosed Gastric MALT lymphoma Stage IE-IIE II-IV H.Pylori H.Pylori + H.Pylori - Regardless of H.Pylori status Treatment HP eradication IFRT Rituximab if IFRT is not applicable Rx as follicular lymphoma 3 months evaluation after HP eradication Response without residual disease Residual disease or no response Further treatment IFRT

52 ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma (OaML) Site of involvement Orbit (40%) Conjunctiva (35%-40%) Lacrimal gland (10%- 15%) Eyelid (10%) Bilaterality occurs in 10% to 15% of cases 90% with localized disease Stefanovic, et al. Blood. 2009; 114:

53 the Association Between C.psittaci and OAML Husain, et al. Cancer. 2007;110: Positive for Cps in 23% of ocular adnexal lymphoma 25% Other MALT lymphoma specimens

54 Regression of OAML after Chlamydia psittaci-eradicating antibiotic therapy A prospective phase 2 clinical trial of 27 patients with OAML Using doxycycline 100 mg orally twice daily for 3 weeks Partial or complete lymphoma regression (48%) after antibiotic therapy was observed 63% Cp-positive 37% Cp-negative patients The 2-year FFS: 66% Ferrari, et al. Ann Oncol. 2006;17:

55 Six-month oral clarithromycin regimen is safe and active in relapsed OAML Clarithromycin 500 mg orally, twice daily, for 6 months ORR of 100% in patients with conjunctival lymphoma who had evidence of C.psittaci infection 3-year progressionfree survival of 58% Govi, et al. Br J Haematol. 2010; 150:

56 Rx for ocular adnexal MALT lymphoma Given the variable prevalence of Cp infection in patients with OAML, empiric antibiotic therapy without prior testing for Chlamydial infection cannot generally be recommended Radiation therapy continues to be the treatment of choice for the majority of patients with localized OAML

57 Splenic marginal zone lymphoma A relatively rare neoplasm accounting for 1-3% of all NHLs It represents the most frequent lymphoma presenting in the spleen The peak of incidence of SMZL is in the seventh decade of life A true indolent course allowing a median survival time ranging from 9-13 years Presentation Bone marrow infiltration (83-100%) An overt leukemic component (29-75%)

58 Splenic marginal zone lymphoma It represents the most frequent lymphoma presenting in the spleen The peak of incidence of SMZL is in the seventh decade of life A true indolent course allowing a median survival time ranging from 9-13 years Presentation Bone marrow infiltration (83-100%) An overt leukemic component (29-75%)

59 Therapy for Splenic MCL The first-line management of asymptomatic patients consists of a watchful-waiting approach Splenectomy is an effective treatment in both nai ve or relapsed/refractory MZL patients, Producing complete resolution of splenomegaly-related symptoms Amelioration of peripheral cytopenias Prolonged treatment-free interval (12-94 months) in most patients Orchard J, et al. Blood 2003;101: ; Ruchlemer R, et al. Br J Haematol 2002;118:952-8

60 HCV and SMZL HCV infection, who are candidates to receive upfront antiviral therapy with pegylated Interferon-alpha and Ribavirin In up to 78% of HCV+ SMZL patients achieving clearance of HCV RNA following antiviral treatment The sustained virological response are paralleled by the clinical remission of the lymphoproliferative disease Valissa, et al. J Clin Oncol 2005;23:468-73

61 MZL: Treatment Gastric MALT lymphoma St IE-IIE HP eradication EGD reevaluate in 3 months If not response : IFRT Oribital adnexal lymphoma St IE-IIE Doxycycline x 2 weeks Reevaluation If not response : IFRT Splenic MZL HCV treatment MALT lymphoma of small intestine (IPSID, alpha heavy chain disease) Tetracyclin for C. jejuni eradication For other type of MZL St I-II IFRT St III-IV Rx in symptomatic case only CD20 monoclonal Ab + CVP Chlorambucil

62 Conclusion Lymphoma consists of various subgroups Correct lymphoma classification would lead to a better prognostication and treatment approach Treatment should be tailored made according to each patients Patient status (Age, PS, underlying disease) Disease status (Stage, aggressiveness, organ involvement) Though curable disease in some patients, lymphoma can not be cured in patients with multiple relapse or refractory cases. Knowing the right time to stop treatment and giving the best palliative care
