Abstract
Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is an aggressive and rare type of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBL) that commonly presents itself as pleural, pericardial or peritoneal effusion without lymph node or extranodal involvement in immunosuppressed patients, such as HIV-positive or transplanted receptors. On rare occasions, it may be found in solid sites without effusion, in an immunophenotypically and morphologically similar neoplasm well-known as extracavitary PEL (EC-PEL). Both PEL and EC-PEL are associated with extremely poor prognosis. Due to the rarity of these entities, ther e are no gold standard treatments . Here we discuss the role of autologous bone marrow transplant (auto-BMT) in the treatment of these patients as well as report the case of a young HIV-positive male diagnosed with both PEL and EC-PEL, who underwent a salvage therapy with auto-BMT and achieved complete and sustained remission eight years after the diagnosis.

Abstract
Results of a prospective study of stage-adapted treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated Hodgkin lymphoma (HIV-HL) showed a 2-year overall survival (OS) of 90.7% with no significant difference between early favorable (EF), early unfavorable (EU), and advanced HL. Patients with EF HIV-HL received two to four cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) + 30 Gy involved field (IF) radiation, those with EU HIV-HL received four cycles of ABVD or BEACOPP (bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone) baseline + 30 Gy IF, and six to eight cycles of BEACOPP baseline were administered in advanced disease. The objective of the present analysis is to determine long-term outcomes of HIV-HL. Of 108 patients, 23 (21%) had EF HL, 14 (13%) had EU HL, and 71 (66%) had advanced-stage HL. After a median follow-up of 9.14 (range, 0-12.9) years, there were five primary refractory HL patients (5%) and 11 relapses (10%), of which seven were late relapses (>2 years). A second primary malignancy (SPM) occurred in 10 patients after a median of 7.3 years (range, 1.5-10.7) from HL diagnosis. The 10-year OS for patients with EF, EU, and advanced HL was 95.7%, 84.6%, and 76.1%, respectively. By multivariate analysis, Center for Disease Control and Prevention category C (hazard ratio [HR] 3.00, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.16-7.74, p = 0.023) and achievement of complete remission were significant for OS (HR 0.03, 95% CI: 0.01-0.08, p = 2.45 × 10-9). In conclusion, a stage-adapted treatment approach for HIV-HL is highly effective with long-term survival rates similar to those reported in HIV-uninfected HL. However, the risk for late relapse and SPM is significant.

Abstract
Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma associated with HIV infection and immunodeficiency. However, PBL can also be seen immunocompetent individuals in recent studies. PBL was characterized by distinct clinical and pathological features, such as plasmablastic morphology and universal expression of plasma cell markers. The clinicopathologic features were different between HIV-negative and HIV-positive patients. Gene expression analysis identified the unique molecular feature in PBL, including frequent c-MYC rearrangement and downregulation of BCR signaling pathway. Despite the recent advances in the treatment of PBL, the prognosis of PBL patients remains dismal. The objectives of this review are to summarize the current knowledge on the epidemiology, molecular profiles, clinical and pathological features, differential diagnosis, treatment strategies, prognostic factors, and potential novel therapeutic approaches in PBL patients.

Comparison of Inpatient Outcomes Between HIV Positive and Negative Hospitalizations for Autologous Stem Cell Transplant Treatment among Lymphoid Malignancies. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA, MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2023; 23:e307-e313.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Comorbidity burden is higher among people living with HIV (PLWH). In addition, they experience adverse effects associated with antiretrovirals. In this study we looked for differences in adverse hospital outcomes between those with and without HIV among hospitalizations for autologous stem cell transplantations (ASCTs) for lymphoid malignancies. MATERIALS AND METHODS The current study was a retrospective analysis using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database, for the years 2005 to 2014. Adult hospitalizations ≥18 years of age, for ASCTs were included for the analysis, and were stratified into those with and without HIV. The primary outcome variables were in-hospital mortality, prolonged length of stay, and adverse dispositions. RESULTS We included a total of 117,686 ASCT hospitalizations, of which, 468 (0.4%) were HIV positive. Among HIV-positive hospitalizations, there were 251 (53.4%), non-Hodgkin lymphoma, 128 (27.4%), Hodgkin lymphoma, and 89 (19.2%) multiple myeloma cases. Only half of the PLWH among Black population received ASCT, compared to Whites (26.8% vs. 54.8%). Regression analyses showed that the odds of in-hospital mortality (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.13-4.44), prolonged length of stay (OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.67-2.11), and dispositions other than home (OR, 1.26; 95% CI, 0.61-2.59) did not differ significantly between 2 groups. DISCUSSION We found that adverse hospital outcomes did not differ between those with and without HIV among hospitalized autologous stem cell transplant recipients. However, the rates of ASCT were substantially lower among Black PLWH. New interventions and approaches should be developed to improve ASCT rates among HIV positive racial minorities.

Abstract
We evaluated the global patterns of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 2020 using the estimates of NHL incidence and mortality in 185 countries that are part of the GLOBOCAN 2020 database, developed by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). As well as new cases and deaths of NHL, corresponding age-standardized (world) rates (ASR) of incidence and mortality per 100 000 person-years were derived by country and world region. In 2020, an estimated 544 000 new cases of NHL were diagnosed worldwide, and approximately 260 000 people died from the disease. Eastern Asia accounted for a quarter (24.9%) of all cases, followed by Northern America (15.1%) and South-Central Asia (9.7%). Incidence rates were higher in men than in women, with similar geographical patterns. While the incidence rates were highest in Australia and New Zealand, Northern America, Northern Europe and Western Europe (>10/100 000 for both sexes combined), the highest mortality rates (>3/100 000) were found in regions in Africa, Western Asia and Oceania. The large variations and the disproportionately higher mortality in low- and middle-income countries can be related to the underlying prevalence and distribution of risk factors, and to the level of access to diagnostic and treatment facilities.

Abstract
The diagnosis of plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL), plasmablastic myeloma (PBM), and plasmablastic neoplasm (PBN) may be arbitrary in some cases because these entities can be indistinct. We conducted this scoping review to investigate heterogeneity in diagnostic criteria used in previous studies and validate the diagnostic results of previous diagnostic algorithms and the algorithm we developed, which also includes diagnosis of PBN. Using the PRISMA Extension for Scoping Reviews, we analyzed literature published between September 2017 and April 2020. We identified a total of 163 cases (128 PBL, 32 PBM, and 3 PBN) from 77 case reports and 8 case series. We found that diagnostic criteria in the literature varied for PBL but were consistent for PBM. Our algorithm was the first attempt to include PBN in a complete structure. The results of the three diagnostic algorithms varied significantly. Hematologists and pathologists should pay more attention to the differential diagnosis of PBL, PBM, and PBN.

Abstract
The risk of malignant lymphomas is markedly increased in HIV-infected persons even in the era of effective combination antiretroviral therapy. Major risk factors are the depth of CD4-cell nadir and HIV viremia. R-CHOP remains treatment of choice for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. In HIV-Burkitt lymphoma CODOX-M/IVAC proved superior to EPOCH in a large retrospective study. Standard treatment for plasmablastic or primary effusion lymphoma has not yet been defined. Favourable results have been reported with a stage adapted treatment for HIV-Hodgkin lymphoma. Patients with relapsed/refractory HIV-lymphoma should undergo autologous stem cell transplantation if indicated. Successful anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy was also reported in HIV-infected patients with refractory B-cell lymphoma.

Abstract
Non-Hodgins’s lymphoma (NHL) is the most common hematological malignancy worldwide, accounting for nearly 3% of cancer diagnoses and deaths. NHL is the seventh most prevalent cancer and has the sixth highest mortality among cancers in the US. NHL accounts for 4% of US cancer diagnoses, and incidence has increased 168% since 1975 (while survival has improved 158%). NHL is more common among men, those >65 years old, and those with autoimmune disease or a family history of hematological malignancies. NHL is a heterogenous disease, with each subtype associated with different risk factors. Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is strongly associated with Sjogren’s syndrome (SS) and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, while peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) is most associated with celiac disease. Occupational exposures among farm workers or painters increases the risk of most of the common subtypes. Prior radiation treatment, obesity, and smoking are most highly associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), while breast implants have been rarely associated with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). Infection with Epstein–Barr Virus (EBV) is strongly associated with endemic Burkitts lymphoma. HIV and human herpes virus 8 (HHV-8), is predisposed to several subtypes of DLBCL, and human T-cell lymphoma virus (HTLV-1) is a causative agent of T-cell lymphomas. Obesity and vitamin D deficiency worsen NHL survival. Atopic diseases and alcohol consumption seem to be protective against NHL.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Cancer remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality in HIV-infected individuals, with aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma as the most frequent one. However, the introduction of modern antiretroviral therapy (ART) drastically improved treatment options and prognosis in HIV-associated lymphomas. This review summarized the current treatment landscape and future challenges in HIV-positive patients with non-Hodgkin’s and Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Recent Findings Selecting the appropriate therapy for the individual patient, diffuse-large B cell lymphoma, Burkitt’s lymphoma, and Hodgkin’s disease may be curable diseases. In contrast, the prognosis of plasmablastic lymphoma and primary effusion lymphoma remain poor. New treatment approaches, as targeted therapies or CAR T cell therapy, may broaden the therapeutic armamentarium. Summary The continuous application of ART is mandatory for successful treatment. The choice of lymphoma therapy may follow the recommendations for HIV-negative patients, but prospective trials in HIV-lymphoma are needed.
