Vitolo 5 On behalf of the ESMO Guidelines Working Group* 1 Department of Medicine III, University Hospital Grosshadern, LMU Munich, Germany; 2 Oncology Institute of Southern Switzerland, Ospedale San Giovanni, Bellinzona, Switzerland; 3 Haematology, Kings College Hospital, Longon, UK; 4 Service d He matologie, Centre Hospitalier Lyon-Sud, Pierre-Benite, France; 5 Haematology II, Centro Universitario Ricerca Oncologica Ospedale Molinette, Torino, Italy incidence Follicular lymphomas are the second most frequent subtype of nodal lymphoid malignancies in Western Europe. The annual incidence of this disease has rapidly increased during recent decades and has risen from 2 3/ during the 1950s to 5 7/ recently. diagnosis Diagnosis is only based on a surgical specimen/excisional lymph node biopsy. Core biopsies should only be performed in patients without easily accessible lymph nodes (e.g. retroperitoneal bulk), keeping in mind the possible heterogeneity of follicular lymphoma grading difficult to appreciate on core biopsies. Fine needle aspirations are inappropriate for a reliable diagnosis. The histological report should give the diagnosis according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. Grading of lymph node biopsies is performed according to the number of blasts/high power field (Table 1). Follicular lymphoma grade 3B (with sheets of blasts) is considered an aggressive lymphoma and treated alike (see clinical recommendation DLBCL) [1]. When possible, additional biopsy material should be stored fresh frozen to allow additional molecular (currently still investigational) analyses. *Correspondence to ESMO Guidelines Working Group, ESMO Head Office, Via L.

Initial work-up should include a computed tomography (CT) scan of the neck, thorax, abdomen and pelvis, and a bone marrow aspirate and biopsy. An additional positron emission tomography (PET) scan is not recommended according to the updated consensus [2]. In rare cases PET scan may be useful to confirm localized stage I/II [IV, C]. A complete blood count, routine blood chemistry including lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and uric acid as well as screening tests for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and hepatitis B and C are required. The staging is given according to the Ann Arbor system (Table 2) with mention of bulky disease, when appropriate. For prognostic purposes, a Follicular Lymphoma-specific International Prognostic Index (FLIPI, Table 3: >4 involved nodal sites, elevated LDH, age >60 years, advanced stage III/ IV, hemoglobin <12 g/dl) should be determined [I, A] [3, 4]. A revised FLIPI2 (incorporating b2 microglobuline, diameter of largest lymph node, bone marrow involvement and hemoglobin level) has been recently suggested for patients requiring treatment [5]. RNA expression analysis suggests a more favorable clinical course in cases with infiltrating T cells in comparison with cases with unspecific macrophage bystander cells [6]. However, this technique is not yet applicable in clinical routine, and immunohistochemistry studies have reported conflicting data recently. treatment plan first line stage I II.

Ann Arbor classification Stage I(I E ) II (II E ) III (III E, III s ) IV Gy) is the preferred treatment having a curative potential [II, B] [7]. In selected cases a watchful waiting may be discussed to avoid the side effects of radiation (e.g. cervical, sicca syndrome; abdominal, myeloablative suppression) [8]. In patients with large tumor burden or adverse prognostic features, systemic therapy as indicated for advanced stages should be applied and the role of radiation consolidation is not proven [IV, B]. stage III IV. induction. Area of involvement One lymph node region or extralymphatic site (I E ) Two or more lymph node regions or at least one lymph node region plus a single localized extralymphatic site (II E )on the same side of the diaphragm Lymph node regions or lymphoid structures (e.g. thymus, Waldeyer s ring) on both sides of the diaphragm with optional localized extranodal site (III E ) or spleen (III S ) Diffuse or disseminated extralymphatic organ involvement A, no symptoms. B, unexplained fever of >38 C, drenching night sweats or loss of <10% body weight within 6 months. In the majority of patients with advanced stage III and IV disease, no curative therapy is yet established. Since the natural course of the disease is characterized by spontaneous regressions in up to 25% of cases and varies significantly from case to case, therapy should be initiated only upon the occurrence of symptoms including B-symptoms, hematopoietic impairment, bulky disease, vital organ compression, ascites, pleural effusion or rapid lymphoma Parameter Definition of risk factors FLIPI 1 FLIPI 2 Nodal sites >4 lymph node regions Long diameter of largest lymph node >6 cm Age Above 60 years Above 60 years Serum Elevated lactate Elevated b2 microglobulin marker dehydrogenase stage Advanced (III IV Bone marrow involvement according to Ann Arbor) Hemoglobin <12 g/dl <12 g/dl With 0 1 risk factors, low risk; 2, intermediate risk; 3 5, high risk. progression [I, A]. In four randomized trials an early initiation of therapy in asymptomatic patients did not result in any improvement of disease-specific survival or overall survival (OS) [9]. In a recent study, early initiation of rituximab resulted in improved progression-free survival (PFS; 80% vs 48%, P <0.001), but the benefit on long-term outcome has to be determined [10]. If complete remission and long PFS are to be achieved, rituximab in combination with chemotherapy [such as CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone), CVP (cyclophosphamide, vincristine and prednisone), purine analog-based schemes: FC (fludarabine and cyclophosphamide) or FM (fludarabine and mitoxantrone) or Bendamustine] should be used [I, B] [11]. In cases with (histologically or clinically) suspected transformation to aggressive lymphoma, an anthracyclinebased regimen should be preferred. Four prospective first-line trials and two salvage trials as well as a systematic meta-analysis confirmed an improved overall response, PFS and OS when rituximab was added to chemotherapy (Table 4) [12 16]. Antibody monotherapy (rituximab, radioimmunotherapy) or chlorambucil plus rituximab remains an alternative in patients with low risk profile or contraindications for a more intensive chemoimmunotherapy [III, B] [17, 18]. In hepatitis B patients, specific recommendations (HBV monitoring, antiviral therapy) should be followed [19]. consolidation/maintenance. Meta-analysis of the pre-rituximab era suggests a potential benefit of interferon-a maintenance therapy that has to be balanced against toxicity [20]. Rituximab maintenance for 2 years improves PFS (75% vs 58% after 3 years, P <0.0001) [I, B] [21]. Radioimmunotherapy consolidation prolongs PFS after chemotherapy but its benefit following rituximab combinations has not been established [I, B] [22]. Myeloablative radiochemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation prolongs PFS but not OS in four randomized trials and therefore represents no standard of care outside of trials [I, A] [23 26] vi60 Dreyling et al. Volume 22 Supplement 6 September 2011
3 Annals of Oncology clinical practice guidelines relapsed disease A repeated biopsy is strongly recommended to rule out a secondary transformation into aggressive lymphoma. Selection of salvage treatment depends on efficacy of prior regimens. In early relapses (<12 months), a non-crossresistant scheme should be preferred (e.g. Bendamustine after CHOP or vice versa). Rituximab should be added if the previous antibody-containing scheme achieved >6 12 months duration of remission [IV,C]. Radioimmunotherapy represents an effective therapeutic approach especially in elderly patients with co-morbidities not appropriate for chemotherapy. Otherwise, it should be applied preferably as consolidation [27]. Rituximab maintenance for up to 2 years has a favorable side effect profile and, based on a systematic meta-analysis, substantially prolongs PFS and OS in relapsed disease even after antibody-containing induction in patients who have not received antibody as first-line therapy [I, A] [28]. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation prolongs PFS and OS and should be especially considered in patients with short-lived first remissions after R-containing regimens, but its role has to be redefined in the rituximab era [I, B] [29, 30]. In selected younger patients with high-risk profile, a potentially curative allogeneic stem cell transplantation Table 4.

Patients with insufficient or lacking response should be evaluated for early salvage regimens. PET scan-ct to evaluate response quality remains investigational in this disease, until future study confirms its predictive value [33]. Minimal residual disease (MRD) analysis at the end of the treatment has some prognostic impact, but should not guide therapeutic strategies outside of clinical studies [34]. follow-up The following recommendation are based on consensus rather than on evidence: History and physical examination every 3 months for 2 years, every 4 6 months for an additional 3 years, and subsequently once a year with special attention to transformation and secondary malignancies including secondary leukemia [V, D]. Blood count and routine chemistry every 6 months for 2 years, then only as needed for evaluation of suspicious symptoms. Evaluation of thyroid function in patients with irradiation of the neck at 1, 2 and 5 years. Minimal adequate radiological or ultrasound examinations every 6 months for 2 years and annually thereafter. Regular CT scans are not mandatory outside of clinical trials. MRD screening may be performed in clinical studies but should not guide therapeutic strategies. note Levels of Evidence [I V] and Grades of Recommendation [A D] as used by the American Society of Clinical Oncology are given in square brackets. Statements without grading were considered justified standard clinical practice by the expert authors and the ESMO faculty. literature 1. Ott G, Katzenberger T, Lohr A et al.
