NB: Nodular lymphocyte predominant is a separate category.

Subtype with the best prognosis

Lymphocyte rich

Subtype with the worst prognosis

Lymphocyte depleted

CD markers in classic HD

CD15+


CD30+


CD45 negative


CD20 negative



Tip: 15-20-30-45, sign alterates beginning with positive

CD markers in nodular lymphocyte predominant HD

Opposite of classic HD



CD15 negative


CD20 +


CD30 negative


CD45 +

Which labs have prognostic significance in HD?

ESR


LDH


CBC


Albumin

What merits a BMBx in HD?

  1. B symptoms
  2. Stages III-IV
  3. Bulky disease
  4. Recurrent disease

How are the cervical, infraclavicular and supraclavicular nodes classified in HD grouping?

Cervical and sclav are ONE region


Infaclavicular is separate

LN stations in the chest

Mediastinum


Left hilum


Right hilum



NB: The hila are counted separately!

What constitutes Waldeyer's ring?

Pharyngeal tonsils (adenoids)


Palatine tonsils


Lingual tonsil (BOT)


Is the spleen considered an extranodal site?

NO. It is a LN region.

Stage I

Single LN region or


Single extralymphatic organ/site (IE)

Stage II

  1. ≥2 LN regions on the same side of the diaphragm or
  2. Involvement of a single extranodal site and regional nodes on the same side of the diaphragm

Stage III

  1. Involvement of LN regions on both sides of the diaphragm


NB: Additional involvement of an extranodal site is designated IIIE

Stage IV

  1. Multifocal involvement of ≥1 extralymphatic +/- associated nodal involvement
  2. Isolated involvement of an extralymphatic organ + distant nodal involvement
  3. Involvement of CSF, bone marrow, liver, or pleura

Unfavorable factors in early HD (NCCN)

  1. Bulky disease (1/3 mediastinum or >10 cm)
  2. >3 involved sites
  3. ESR >50
  4. B symptoms

Chemo Regimens Commonly Used in HD

ABVD


Stanford V


Dose-escalated BEACOPP

What is ABVD?

Adriamycin


Bleomycin


VinBLAStine


Dacarbazine

What is Stanford V?

MOPE-ABV (actually 7 agents)



Mechlorethamine


Oncovin (vinCRIStine)


Prednisone


Etoposide


Adriamycin


Bleomycin


VinBLAStine

What is BEACOPP?

Bleomycin


Etoposide


Adrimycin


Cyclophosphamide


Oncovin (vinCRIStine)


Procarbazine


Prednisone

Tx for Stage IA-IIA Favorable HD (NCCN)

ABVD x 2-4 cycles --> Restage --> ISRT



Chemo Alternative: Stanford V x 8 wks

Tx for bulky Stage I-II HD (NCCN)

ABVD x 4 cycles --> Restage --> ABVD x 2 (6 total) --> ISRT



Chemo alternatives:


- Stanford V x 12 wks


- Escalated BEACOPP x 2 cycles + ABVD x 2

Tx for Nonbulky but Unfavorable Stage I-II HD (NCCN)

ABVD x 2 --> Restage --> ABVD x 2-4 + ISRT



Chemo alternative: Stanford V x 12 wks

Tx for Stage III-IV HD (NCCN)

ABVD x 2 --> Restage -->ABVD x 4 --> ISRT to initially bulky or PET+ sites

Tx for Nodular Lymphocyte Predominant HD (NCCN)

Favorable Stage I-II: ISRT alone



Unfavorable Stage I-II: Chemo + ISRT --> Restage



Stage III-IVA: Chemo +/- Rituximab +/- ISRT



Stage IIIB-IVB: Chemo +/- Rituximab +/- ISRT

Involved Site RT

Treat prechemo/prebiopsy GTV sparing adjacent uninvolved organs

Dose for Nonbulky Dz

30 Gy



NB: 20 Gy may be sufficient in favorable Stage I-IIA disease with ESR <50, no extralymphatic involvement and only 1-2 LN regions involved

Dose for Bulky Dz

36 Gy

Studies that support chemoRT over RT alone

EORTC H7F


EORTC H8F (only one with improved OS)


German HD7


SWOG S9133



All studies showed improved long-term relapse

Studies that support a more limited RT field

GPMC


German HD8


Milan


EORTC H8U



All had similar OS, indicating that more extensive RT was not needed.

What is the evidence for 20 Gy after ABVD in early stage, favorable patients?

German HD10


EORTC GELA H9F

Describe German HD10

2x2 Noninferiority study



Favorable Stage I-IIA:


Question #1) 2 vs 4 cycles of ABVD


Question #2) 20 vs 30 Gy

Significance of German HD10

Demonstrated noninferior freedom from tx failure, 5 yr PFS and OS between the various chemo and RT arms



Ergo, 2 cycles of ABVD and 20 Gy RT are sufficient for favorable, Stage I-IIA Hodgkins
