Q

NHL with potentially profound response to chemo, ultimately curable

17
Q

NHL tx

A
  • surgery has NO significant role
  • radiation
  • chemo
18
Q

classes of chemo generally used in NHL

A

alkylators
anthracylines
steroids

19
Q

indolent NHL tx

A

QOL tx

rituximab

20
Q

rituximab

A

monoclonal CD20 Ab

antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC)

complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC)

apoptosis

21
Q

NHL chemo combo

A

CHOP

cyclophosphamide
doxorubicin
vincristine
prednisone

22
Q

HIV-associated lymphoma

A

vast majority=aggressive

  • B cell origin
  • CD4 <200
  • high viral load/advanced disease
  • tx w/ HAART –> dec risk
23
Q

HL

A

unusual variant of B-cell lymphoma (~15%)

adenopathy (progressive)

  • neck/mediatinum
  • sx: night sweats/fevers/weight loss, “pel-ebstein” fevers, pruritus, EtOH
  • typically slow, orderly growth
  • tx outcomes for early stage disease = excellent
24
Q

HL age distribution

A

bimodal, 20s or 60s

25
nivolumab
targets PD-1 on T-cells (a suppressor of immune function) binds and INactivates this unleashes T cells that recognize Reed-Sternberg cells HL tx
26
half of HL cases contain ____ DNA in Reed-Sternberg cells
EBV
27
reed sterberg cellClas
multinucleate giant cells derived from malignant B lymphocytes CD30, CD15 IgH rearrangement monoclonal seen in classical HL (from mature B cells at germinal center)
28
CD30, CD15
Reed Sternberg cell
29
HL staging
I-single lymphoid chain II-2 chains on one side of diaphragm III-above and below diaphragm IV-diffuse non-lymphoid spread also A-absense of constitutional sx B-presence of (F/NS/>10%weight loss) M-bulky mediastinal mass E-involvement of extra nodal site
30
classical HL
4 subtypes - nodular sclerosis - mixed cellularity - lymphocyte rich - lymphocyte poor
31
non-classic HL
1 subtypes
32
HL tx goals
aimed at cute, start ASAP
33
HL standard chemotherapy
ABVD adriamycin bleomycin vinblastin dacarbizine
34
HL early stage tx
radiation alone chemo +radiation just to site of involvement or chemo alone
35
surveillance of HL survivors
- mammograms starting at 30 or 8-10 yrs from XRT | - colonoscopy 8-10 yrs post XRT
36
Brentuximab
fusion chemo-immunoconjugate combining a monoclonal Ab against CD30 and an MT inhibitor *RS cells =CD30
