Abstract
PURPOSE Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma (NLPHL) is a rare cancer, and large international cooperative efforts are needed to evaluate the significance of clinical risk factors and immunoarchitectural patterns (IAPs) for all stages of pediatric and adult patients with NLPHL. METHODS Thirty-eight institutions participated in the Global nLPHL One Working Group retrospective study of NLPHL cases from 1992 to 2021. We measured progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), transformation rate, and lymphoma-specific death rate. We performed uni- and multivariable (MVA) Cox regression stratified by management to select factors for the lymphocyte-predominant international prognostic score (LP-IPS) validated by five-fold cross-validation. RESULTS We identified 2,243 patients with a median age of 37 years (IQR, 23-51). The median follow-up was 6.3 years (IQR, 3.4-10.8). Most had stage I to II (72.9%) and few B symptoms (9.9%) or splenic involvement (5.4%). IAP was scored for 916 (40.8%). Frontline management included chemotherapy alone (32.4%), combined modality therapy (30.5%), radiotherapy alone (24.0%), observation after excision (4.6%), rituximab alone (4.0%), active surveillance (3.4%), and rituximab and radiotherapy (1.1%). The PFS, OS, transformation, and lymphoma-specific death rates at 10 years were 70.8%, 91.6%, 4.8%, and 3.3%, respectively. On MVA, IAPs were not associated with PFS or OS, but IAP E had higher risk of transformation (hazard ratio [HR], 1.81; P < .05). We developed the LP-IPS with 1 point each for age ≥45 years, stage III-IV, hemoglobin <10.5 g/dL, and splenic involvement. Increasing LP-IPS was significantly associated with worse PFS (HR, 1.52) and OS (HR, 2.31) and increased risk of lymphoma-specific death (HR, 2.63) and transformation (HR, 1.41). CONCLUSION In this comprehensive study of all ages of patients with NLPHL, we develop the LP-IPS to identify high-risk patients and inform upcoming prospective clinical trials evaluating de-escalation of therapy for patients with low LP-IPS scores (<2).

Abstract
Hodgkin lymphoma is a rare, but highly curative form of cancer, primarily afflicting adolescents and young adults. Despite multiple seminal trials over the past twenty years, there is no single consensus-based treatment approach beyond use of multi-agency chemotherapy with curative intent. The use of radiation continues to be debated in early-stage disease, as part of combined modality treatment, as well as in salvage, as an important form of consolidation. While short-term disease outcomes have varied little across these different approaches across both early and advanced stage disease, the potential risk of severe, longer-term risk has varied considerably. Over the past decade novel therapeutics have been employed in the retrieval setting in preparation to and as consolidation after autologous stem cell transplant. More recently, these novel therapeutics have moved to the frontline setting, initially compared to standard-of-care treatment and later in a direct head-to-head comparison combined with multi-agent chemotherapy. In 2018, we established the HoLISTIC Consortium, bringing together disease and methods experts to develop clinical decision models based on individual patient data to guide providers, patients, and caregivers in decision-making. In this review, we detail the steps we followed to create the master database of individual patient data from patients treated over the past 20 years, using principles of data science. We then describe different methodological approaches we are taking to clinical decision making, beginning with clinical prediction tools at the time of diagnosis, to multi-state models, incorporating treatments and their response. Finally, we describe how simulation modeling can be used to estimate risks of late effects, based on cumulative exposure from frontline and salvage treatment. The resultant database and tools employed are dynamic with the expectation that they will be updated as better and more complete information becomes available.

Machine Learning-Based Survival Prediction Models for Progression-Free and Overall Survival in Advanced-Stage Hodgkin Lymphoma. JCO Clin Cancer Inform 2024; 8:e2300255.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients diagnosed with advanced-stage Hodgkin lymphoma (aHL) have historically been risk-stratified using the International Prognostic Score (IPS). This study investigated if a machine learning (ML) approach could outperform existing models when it comes to predicting overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). PATIENTS AND METHODS This study used patient data from the Danish National Lymphoma Register for model development (development cohort). The ML model was developed using stacking, which combines several predictive survival models (Cox proportional hazard, flexible parametric model, IPS, principal component, penalized regression) into a single model, and was compared with two versions of IPS (IPS-3 and IPS-7) and the newly developed aHL international prognostic index (A-HIPI). Internal model validation was performed using nested cross-validation, and external validation was performed using patient data from the Swedish Lymphoma Register and Cancer Registry of Norway (validation cohort). RESULTS In total, 707 and 760 patients with aHL were included in the development and validation cohorts, respectively. Examining model performance for OS in the development cohort, the concordance index (C-index) for the ML model, IPS-7, IPS-3, and A-HIPI was found to be 0.789, 0.608, 0.650, and 0.768, respectively. The corresponding estimates in the validation cohort were 0.749, 0.700, 0.663, and 0.741. For PFS, the ML model achieved the highest C-index in both cohorts (0.665 in the development cohort and 0.691 in the validation cohort). The time-varying AUCs for both the ML model and the A-HIPI were consistently higher in both cohorts compared with the IPS models within the first 5 years after diagnosis. CONCLUSION The new prognostic model for aHL on the basis of ML techniques demonstrated a substantial improvement compared with the IPS models, but yielded a limited improvement in predictive performance compared with the A-HIPI.

Abstract
Early-stage Hodgkin's lymphoma (ESHL) is highly curable, usually with a combination of chemotherapy and radiation. Real-world data may show differences in survival and prognostic factors when compared to clinical trials. There is limited published literature on ESHL from India. The data on the baseline characters, treatment, and outcomes of patients with ESHL (stage IA, IB, and IIA) were obtained from five institutions' medical records and entered in a common database. Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using the Kaplan Meier method, and cox-regression analysis was used to identify prognostic factors. There were 258 patients [median age was 37 (18-75) years; [males:160 (62%); stage I: 41%; B symptoms: 17 (6%); bulky disease:19 (15%)] treated between 2000 and 2020 who were evaluable. The common chemotherapies used were ABVD [N = 180 (70%)], COPP-ABVD hybrid [N = 52 (21%)], and COPP [N = 14 (5%)]. Median number of cycles were 4 (2-8) and 93 (47%) received radiation at end of treatment. After a median follow-up of 60 months, the 5 years EFS was 87% and OS was 92%. On multivariate analysis, the following factors adversely affected the EFS: Male gender [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.23, P = 0.02] and Hemoglobin < 10.5g/dL [hazard ration (HR) = 2.20, P = 0.02], and the following adversely affected the OS: Hemoglobin < 10.5g/dL [hazard ratio (HR) = 4.05, P = 0.001], Male gender [hazard ratio (HR) = 3.59, P = 0.004], Stage 2 [hazard ratio (HR) = 2.65, P = 0.002] and ECOG PS (2-3) [hazard ratio (HR) = 3.35, P = 0.01]. Using the hemoglobin, stage and gender a 3-item prognostic score could identify patients with very good outcomes (score 0; 5 years OS:100%) and poor outcomes (score 3; 5 years OS; 49%). This is one of the first multi-center real-world data exclusively focusing on ESHL from India. Though the survival of the entire population was good, there are subsets of patients who have poor outcomes, which may be identified using simple parameters. These parameters need validation in a larger dataset. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12288-023-01692-9.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND This study evaluated the impact of adipose tissue indices on prognosis of HL. METHODS Fifty-five patients with newly diagnosed Hodgkin Lymphoma were evaluated retrospectively for association with adipose tissue indices (total abdominal tissue volume, radiodensity, subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue SUVmax value and prognostic factors for Hodgkin Lymphoma such as IPS-3, IPS-7, stage, sedimentation, progression free and overall survival. RESULTS For IPS-3, SAT SUVmax and TAAT radiodensity were significantly increased in high-risk patients (2and 3) compared to group 0 and 1. For IPS-7, total abdominal adipose volume was significantly decreased in high-risk patients, SAT SUVmax significantly increased in high-risk patients and decreased in low-risk patients. In addition, SAT SUVmax was significantly increased in patients with high sedimentation rate, with B symptoms and who passed away during follow-up. SAT SUVmax showed moderate positive correlation with sedimentation, IPS-3, IPS-7, and stage. In addition, it was observed that TAAT radiodensity and SAT SUVmax were significantly better for determining prognosis than other adipose tissue indices. Roc analysis showed that the diagnostic value of all adipose tissue indices in predicting IPS-3 and IPS-7 prognoses were statistically significant. CONCLUSION SAT SUVmax and TAAT radiodensity were two new and independent markers with diagnostic value in predicting prognosis.

Abstract
The role of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in lymphoma cells of nodular sclerosis classic Hodgkin lymphoma (NScHL) is controversial. Our aim was to explore this and establish a clinically feasible model for risk stratification. We interrogated data from 542 consecutive subjects with NScHL receiving ABVD therapy and demonstrated EBV-infection in their lymphoma cells with EBV-encoded small RNAs (EBERs) in situ hybridization. Subjects were divided into training and validation datasets. As data from the training dataset suggested EBERs-positivity was the only independent prognostic factor for both progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), we developed corresponding prognostic models based on it. Our models showed excellent performance in both training and validation cohort. These data indicate the close association of EBV infection and the outcomes of persons with NScHL receiving ABVD. Additionally, our newly developed models should help physicians estimate prognosis and select individualized therapy.

The significance of serum beta-2 microglobulin (sβ2m) in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is controversial. We analyzed 915 patients with HL, who were treated with ABVD or equivalent regimens with or without radiotherapy. Sβ2m levels were measured by a radioimmunoassay (upper normal limit 2.4 mg/L). Sequential cutoffs (1.8-3.0 by 0.1 mg/L increments, 3.5 and 4.0 mg/L) were tested along with ROC analysis. The median sβ2m levels were 2.20 mg/L and were elevated (>2.4 mg/L) in 383/915 patients (41.9%). Higher sβ2m was associated with inferior freedom from progression (FFP) at all tested cutoffs. The best cutoff was 2.0 mg/L (10-year FFP 83% vs. 70%, p = 0.001), which performed better than the 2.4 mg/L cutoff ("normal versus high"). In multivariate analysis, sβ2m > 2.0 mg/L was an independent adverse prognostic factor in the whole patient population. In multivariate overall survival analysis, sβ2m levels were predictive at 2.0 mg/L cutoff in the whole patient population and in advanced stages. Similarly, sβ2m > 2.0 mg/L independently predicted inferior HL-specific survival in the whole patient population. Our data suggest that higher sβ2m is an independent predictor of outcome in HL but the optimal cutoff lies within the normal limits (i.e., at 2.0 mg/L) in this predominantly young patient population, performing much better than a "normal versus high" cutoff set at 2.4 mg/L.

Abstract
Classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) accounts for 0.4% of all new cancer cases globally. Despite high cure rates with standard treatment, approximately 15% of patients still experience relapsed or refractory (RR) disease, and many of these eventually die from lymphoma-related causes. Exciting new targeted agents such as anti-PD-1 agents and brentuximab vedotin have changed the therapeutic paradigm beyond chemotherapy and radiotherapy alone. Advances in understanding of the molecular biology are providing insights in the context of novel therapies. The signature histology of cHL requires the presence of scant malignant Hodgkin Reed-Sternberg cells (HRSCs) surrounded by a complex immune-rich tumour microenvironment (TME). The TME cellular composition strongly influences outcomes, yet knowledge of the precise characteristics of TME cells and their interactions with HRSCs is evolving. Novel high-throughput technologies and single-cell sequencing allow deeper analyses of the TME and mechanisms elicited by HRSCs to propagate growth and avoid immune response. In this review, we explore the evolution of knowledge on the prognostic role of immune cells within the TME and provide an up-to-date overview of emerging prognostic data on cHL from new technologies that are starting to unwind the complexity of the cHL TME and provide translational insights into how to improve therapy in the clinic.

Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) as a potential predictor and intervention target for perioperative ischemic stroke: a retrospective cohort study. BMC Anesthesiol 2023; 23:268. [PMID: 37563630 PMCID: PMC10413636 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02216-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) is a nutritional indicator and predictor of various diseases. However it is unclear whether PNI can be a predictor of perioperative ischemic stroke. This study aims to evaluate the association of the preoperative PNI and ischemic stroke in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. METHODS The retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent noncardiac surgery between January 2008 and August 2019. The patients were divided into PNI ≥ 38.8 and PNI < 38.8 groups according to the cut-off value of PNI. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the association between PNI and perioperative ischemic stroke. Subsequently, propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed to eliminate the confounding factors of covariates and further validate the results. Subgroup analyses were completed to assess the predictive utility of PNI for perioperative ischemic stroke in different groups. RESULTS Amongst 221,542 hospitalized patients enrolled, 485 (0.22%) experienced an ischemic stroke within 30 days of the surgery, 22.1% of patients were malnourished according to PNI < 38.8, and the occurrence of perioperative ischemic stroke was 0.34% (169/49055) in the PNI < 38.8 group. PNI < 38.8 was significantly associated with an increased incidence of perioperative ischemic stroke whether in univariate logistic regression analysis (OR = 1.884, 95% CI: 1.559-2.267, P < 0.001) or multivariate logistic regression analysis (OR = 1.306, 95% CI: 1.061-1.602, P = 0.011). After PSM analysis, the ORs of PNI < 38.8 group were 1.250 (95% CI: 1.000-1.556, P = 0.050) and 1.357 (95% CI: 1.077-1.704, P = 0.009) in univariate logistic regression analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis respectively. The subgroup analysis indicated that reduced PNI was significantly associated to an increased risk of perioperative ischemic stroke in patients over 65 years old, ASA II, not taking aspirin before surgery, without a history of stroke, who had neurosurgery, non-emergency surgery, and were admitted to ICU after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates that low preoperative PNI is significantly associated with a higher incidence of ischemic stroke in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Preoperative PNI, as a preoperative nutritional status evaluation index, is an independent risk factor useful to predict perioperative ischemic stroke risk, which could be used as an intervenable preoperative clinical biochemical index to reduce the incidence of perioperative ischemic stroke.

Abstract
PURPOSE The International Prognostic Score (IPS) has been used in classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) for 25 years. However, analyses have documented suboptimal performance of the IPS among contemporarily treated patients. Harnessing multisource individual patient data from the Hodgkin Lymphoma International Study for Individual Care consortium, we developed and validated a modern clinical prediction model. METHODS Model development via Transparent Reporting of a multivariable prediction model for Individual Prognosis Or Diagnosis guidelines was performed on 4,022 patients with newly diagnosed advanced-stage adult cHL from eight international phase III clinical trials, conducted from 1996 to 2014. External validation was performed on 1,431 contemporaneously treated patients from four real-world cHL registries. To consider association over a full range of continuous variables, we evaluated piecewise linear splines for potential nonlinear relationships. Five-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were estimated using Cox proportional hazard models. RESULTS The median age in the development cohort was 33 (18-65) years; nodular sclerosis was the most common histology. Kaplan-Meier estimators were 0.77 for 5-year PFS and 0.92 for 5-year OS. Significant predictor variables included age, sex, stage, bulk, absolute lymphocyte count, hemoglobin, and albumin, with slight variation for PFS versus OS. Moreover, age and absolute lymphocyte count yielded nonlinear relationships with outcomes. Optimism-corrected c-statistics in the development model for 5-year PFS and OS were 0.590 and 0.720, respectively. There was good discrimination and calibration in external validation and consistent performance in internal-external validation. Compared with the IPS, there was superior discrimination for OS and enhanced calibration for PFS and OS. CONCLUSION We rigorously developed and externally validated a clinical prediction model in > 5,000 patients with advanced-stage cHL. Furthermore, we identified several novel nonlinear relationships and improved the prediction of patient outcomes. An online calculator was created for individualized point-of-care use.

The International Prognostic Score and HIV status predict red cell concentrate transfusion needs in Hodgkin lymphoma. Leuk Lymphoma 2023; 64:613-620. [PMID: 36562564 PMCID: PMC10200008 DOI: 10.1080/10428194.2022.2157214] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Despite the burden of anemia among Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients, data evaluating red cell concentrate transfusion are limited. We retrospectively studied 285 newly diagnosed HL patients who received first-line adriamycin, bleomycin sulfate, vinblastine sulfate, and dacarbazine (ABVD) treatment at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town. HIV prevalence in the cohort was 39.5% and 74.2% of patients had advanced stage HL. Patient prognosis was scored using the HL International Prognostic Score (IPS-7) and HL IPS-3. Seventy (24.6%) patients were transfused with a median of 2 (IQR 1-5) units per patient. Compared to HIV-negative patients, more HIV-positive patients were transfused (14.1% vs. 40.4%, p < .001) and received more units, median 2 (IQR 1-3) vs. 3 (IQR 2-5), p = .035. HL IPS-7 (OR 2.1, p < .001) and HL IPS-3 (OR 2.6, p < .001) were independently associated with transfusion. HL IPS-7, HL IPS-3, and HIV positivity remained associated with transfusion after adjusting for covariates. For patients with newly diagnosed HL, HL IPS-7, HL IPS-3, and HIV status predicted transfusion.

Plateletcrit as a prognostic marker in Hodgkin lymphoma: A pilot study. JOURNAL OF SURGERY AND MEDICINE 2023. [DOI: 10.28982/josam.7634] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Background/Aim: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is a lymphoproliferative malignancy associated with inflammation. Plateletcrit (PCT) is a mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet count-derived marker that is useful for evaluating malignancies and inflammatory diseases. International Prognostic Score (IPS-7) and more recently, IPS-3, are two indices indicating the prognosis of patients; however, widespread and easy to interpret prognostic markers are still needed for HL evaluation. Very few studies evaluating the prognostic significance of platelet indices in HL have been published, so we aimed to show the relationship between PCT and other adverse prognostic factors in HL and evaluate whether PCT can be used as a prognostic marker in HL.
Methods: After excluding patients with insufficient data, 75 patients diagnosed with HL and 150 healthy controls were retrospectively analyzed in this case-control study. Evaluation of relationship of PCT and adverse HL prognostic factors, such as age, gender, hemoglobin, leukocytes, lymphocytes (absolute value and percentage), albumin, Ann Arbor stage and B symptoms, IPS-3 and-7 prognostic scores and post-treatment relapse, and progression-free survival of the patients were studied.
Results: Mean MPV values were significantly lower, mean platelet values were significantly higher inpatient group (all P<0.001). Patients with high sedimentation had significantly higher mean PCT than those without (P=0.031) and a moderately positive correlation between PCT and sedimentation were found (r=0.33, P<0.01). Mean PCT values after treatment significantly decreased compared to baseline levels (P<0.001).
Conclusion: PCT may be useful as a prognostic marker in HL. Further studies were needed to evaluate the relationship between PCT and other prognostic factors, such as IPS-3 and -7.

A new prognostic model including platelet/lymphocyte ratio and International Prognostic Score 3 for freedom from progression in patients with previously untreated advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Asia Pac J Clin Oncol 2022; 18:e486-e494. [PMID: 35238169 DOI: 10.1111/ajco.13770] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2021] [Accepted: 02/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to develop a new risk stratification tool to predict freedom from progression (FFP) for newly diagnosed advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). METHODS We collected data from 386 patients with advanced cHL diagnosed between December 8, 2000 and October 29, 2018, and treated with curative intent with ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) or an ABVD-equivalent regimen. Cases were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts at a ratio of 7:3. The new model was constructed based on the results of Cox proportional hazards model in the training cohort. Comparisons of discrimination between the new model and other models in the training and validation cohorts for FFP prediction were measured by time-dependent area under curve (tAUC) and Harrell's C-index. Calibration plots were constructed to compare the consistency between the predicted and observed estimates of survival probability for the new model in the training and validation cohorts. RESULTS The new model (IPSPLR) composed of International Prognostic Score (IPS)-3 and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) provided four distinct risk groups. The IPSPLR showed better discriminative ability when compared with IPS-3 and IPS-7. The AUC of IPSPLR was consistently higher than that of IPS-3 and IPS-7 between 12 and 120 months. The C-index of the IPSPLR was higher than that of IPS-7 and IPS-3. The calibration plots showed an excellent agreement between the IPSPLR-predicted and observed estimates of 5-year FFP. CONCLUSION The IPSPLR is an easily used tool for FFP prediction for newly diagnosed advanced cHL. Validation of this tool in other large datasets is needed.

Abstract
Introduction While Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) is mostly curable, outcomes for advanced-stage HL remain unsatisfactory. The International Prognostic Score and its modifications were developed to predict HL prognosis; however, more straightforward prognostic factors are needed. This study aimed to identify simpler prognostic factors for advanced-stage newly diagnosed HL (NDHL). Methods This retrospective study used the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database and the Taiwan Cancer Registry. Patients with advanced-stage NDHL receiving ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) or ABVD-like regimens between 2009 and 2016 were enrolled. Cox proportional hazards models were used to identify prognostic factors for the time to next treatment (TTNT) and overall survival (OS). We used the time-dependent area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) to evaluate model performance. Results The study included 459 patients with advanced-stage NDHL. A bimodal age distribution (peaks 20-44 and >65 years) was observed. Over a median follow-up of 4.7 years, the complete remission and OS rates were 52% and 76%, respectively. Age ≥60 years (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 1.73, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.23-2.43), extranodal involvement (1.40, 1.05-1.87), B symptoms (1.53, 1.13-2.06), and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) ≥1 (1.49, 1.08-2.06) were significantly associated with a shorter TTNT. The time-dependent AUROC was .65. With a time-dependent AUROC of .81, age ≥60 years (4.55, 2.90-7.15) and CCI ≥1 (1.86, 1.18-2.91) were risk factors for worse OS. Conclusion Older age and more comorbidities were risk factors for an inferior OS in advanced-stage NDHL, while older age, extranodal involvement, B-symptoms, and higher CCI were significantly associated with disease relapse.

Abstract
Background An effective diagnostic and prognostic marker based on the gene expression profile of classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) has not yet been developed. The aim of the present study was to investigate potential markers for the diagnosis and prediction of cHL prognosis. Methods The gene expression profiles with all available clinical features were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Then, multiple machine learning algorithms were applied to develop and validate a diagnostic signature by comparing cHL with normal control. In addition, we identified prognostic genes and built a prognostic model with them to predict the prognosis for 130 patients with cHL which were treated with first-line treatment (ABVD chemotherapy or an ABVD-like regimen). Results A diagnostic prediction signature was constructed and showed high specificity and sensitivity (training cohort: AUC=0.981,95% CI 0.933–0.998, P<0.001, validation cohort: AUC=0.955,95% CI 0.895–0.986, P<0.001). Additionally, nine prognostic genes (LAMP1, STAT1, MMP9, C1QB, ICAM1, CD274, CCL19, HCK and LILRB2) were screened and a prognostic prediction model was constructed with them, which had been confirmed effectively predicting prognosis (P<0.001). Furthermore, the results of the immune infiltration assessment indicated that the high scale of the fraction of CD8 + T cells, M1 macrophages, resting mast cells associated with an adverse outcome in cHL, and naive B cells related to prolonged survival. In addition, a nomogram that combined the prognostic prediction model and clinical characteristics is also suggested to have a good predictive value for the prognosis of patients. Conclusion The new markers found in this study may be helpful for the diagnosis and prediction of the prognosis of cHL.

Abstract
We conducted a retrospective study in 274 previously untreated advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients to investigate the prognostic value of baseline platelet (PLT) count, platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR). The median follow-up time was 89 (range 0.3-240) months. By univariate analysis, PLT/PDW <24.5, PLR ≥245, and MPV <8fl were all associated with worse freedom from progression (FFP), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). By multivariate analysis, PLT/PDW <24.5 was a risk factor for FFP (HR 2.02, p = 0.002) and PFS (HR 2.36, p < 0.001). PLR ≥245 was independently associated with inferior FFP (HR 2.04, p = 0.003) and PFS (HR 1.93, p = 0.002). Due to the limited number of death events, multivariate analysis was not conducted for OS. Propensity score matching analysis and subgroup analysis further validated the prognostic value for PLT/PDW and PLR. In conclusion, PLT/PDW and PLR are promising prognostic indicators for newly diagnosed advanced HL.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction Most Indian centers use Adriamycin/Bleomycin/Vinblastine/Dacarba-zine (ABVD) chemotherapy for pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (pHL). To reduce the late toxicity, robust predictive markers are needed to risk stratify pHL patients, thereby limiting the number of chemotherapy cycles and omitting radiation for low-risk and intensifying treatment for high-risk children.
Objective This study was conducted to analyze the outcome of pHL patients treated with ABVD and various factors predicting the outcome.
Materials and Methods This retrospective study analyzed the outcome of 113 consecutive pHL children treated with ABVD chemotherapy from 11 tertiary care centers in South India from 2009 to 2019.
Results The median duration of follow-up was 2.73 years. The median age was 13 years. B symptoms are seen in 50.5% patients, bulky disease in 23%, and stage IV in 28.3%. Of 113 pHL, 69% had a positron emission tomography (PET) and 31% had computed tomography (CT)-based staging. Stage IV (37.1%) and extranodal involvement (31.2%) were seen more often with PET than with CT staging (8.5 and 2.8%, respectively). Among 64 patients with interim PET scan after two cycles (iPET2), 20.3% did not achieve complete remission (CR) and no factors were significantly associated. The 4-year event-free survival (EFS) rate of the entire cohort was 86%. The 4-year EFS rate was 93% for patients with CR in iPET2 and 52% for patients not achieving CR. The only independent predictor of low EFS was iPET2 response (p < 0.05).
Conclusion Our study confirms the prognostic role of PET scan staging and response assessment. Not achieving CR on the iPET2 scan indicates poor prognosis and warrants clinical trial enrollment for a better outcome.

CANCER DIAGNOSIS & PROGNOSIS 2021; 1:127-133. [PMID: 35399309 PMCID: PMC8962786 DOI: 10.21873/cdp.10017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2021] [Accepted: 07/25/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Population-based studies on Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) have shown reduced survival in Hispanics and non-Hispanic Blacks compared with non-Hispanic Whites. To better understand the factors contributing to this outcome discrepancy, we retrospectively reviewed the charts of patients with HL diagnosed and treated at a single institution located along the Texas-Mexico border. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective chart review of all patients with HL treated at our institution over an 8-year period (2011-2018). The International Prognostic Score was calculated for all patients and results of positron-emission tomography (PET) scans (interim and end of treatment) were also recorded. Variables analyzed included tumor-related findings (stage, subtype of HL), treatment history (chemotherapy regimen including number of cycles, dose intensity and radiation treatments) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio. Quantitative variables were described using median, interquartile range, minimum and maximum observations. Categorical variables were described using frequency and proportions. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to show relapse-free survival. RESULTS A total of 24 patients were treated in the time frame, of whom 23 were Hispanic. All were treated with doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (ABVD) or an ABVD-like regimen. Dose intensity for chemotherapy exceeded 90%. After a median follow-up of 43 months, the relapse rate was 45.8%. Positive and negative predictive values for interim PET (0% and 50%) and end of therapy PET (80% and 58%) were suboptimal to allow for a PET-adapted therapeutic approach. CONCLUSION Hispanics have a high relapse rate following ABVD which is not fully explained by universally accepted prognostic factors. Performance of PET scan in predicting outcomes of HL needs to be further studied and optimized before adopting a PET-adapted treatment paradigm for underserved Hispanic populations.

Abstract
Asubset of patients with advanced-stage classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) relapse or progress following standard treatment. Given their dismal prognosis, identifying this group of patients upfront represents an important medical need. While prior research has identified characteristics of the tumor microenvironment, which are associated with cHL outcomes, biomarkers that are developed and validated in this high-risk group are still lacking. Here, we applied wholeslide image analysis (WSI), a quantitative, large-scale assessment of tumor composition that utilizes conventional histopathology slides. We conducted WSI on pre-treatment biopsies from 340 patients with advanced-stage cHL enrolled in the HD12 and HD15 trials of the German Hodgkin Study Group (GHSG), and tested our results in a validation cohort of 147 advanced-stage cHL patients within the GHSG HD18 trial. All patients were treated with BEACOPP-based regimens. By quantifying T cells, B cells, Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells and macrophages with WSI, 80% of all cells in the tumor tissue were identified. Crucially, low B-cell count was associated with significantly reduced progression-free survival and overall survival, while the content of T cells, macrophages and Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg cells was not associated with the risk of progression or relapse in the study cohort. We further validated low Bcell content as a prognostic factor for progression-free survival and overall survival in the validation cohort and demonstrated the good interobserver agreement of WSI. WSI may represent a key tool for risk stratification of advanced-stage cHL and can easily be added to the standard diagnostic histopathology work-up.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the power of he international prognostic scoring systems (IPS-7 and IPS-3) and to obtain indices by integrating leukocyte lymphocyte ratio (LLR) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) factors as prognostic indicators in cases with classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). 1012 patients with cHL were evaluated with 2 different IPS-4 scores with four parameters: stage, age, hemoglobin level, and either LLR or PNI. Statistical package SPSS v 22.0 was used. Two different Cox regression models were obtained for OS and PFS. Model 1 showed LLR ≥ 5,8 as the highest risk for OS and anemia as the highest risk for PFS. Model 2 showed PNI ≤ 45,2 as the highest risk for OS and anemia as the highest risk for PFS. IPS-4 scores obtained by integrating either LLR or PNI to IPS-3 integration of a biologic parameter either LLR or PNI need to be determined with clinical risk scoring parameters.

Abstract
The expression patterns and prognostic significance of sterile alpha motif and HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) protein in the neoplastic Hodgkin and Reed Sternberg (HRS) cells of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) were investigated in a cohort of 154 patients with HL treated with standard regimens. SAMHD1 expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry using diagnostic lymph node biopsies obtained prior to treatment. Using an arbitrary 20% cut-off, SAMHD1 was positive in HRS cells of 48/154 (31·2%) patients. SAMHD1 expression was not associated with clinicopathologic parameters, such as age, gender, stage or histologic subtype. In 125 patients with a median follow-up of 90 months (7-401 months), SAMHD1 expression in HRS cells significantly correlated with inferior freedom from progression (FFP) (P = 0·025), disease-specific survival (DSS) (P = 0·013) and overall survival (OS) (P = 0·01). Importantly, in multivariate models together with disease stage, histology subtype and type of treatment as covariates, SAMHD1 expression retained an independent significant association with unfavourable FFP (P = 0·005) as well as DSS (P = 0·022) and OS (P = 0·018). These findings uncover the significance of a novel, adverse prognostic factor in HL that may have therapeutic implications since SAMHD1 inhibitors are now available for clinical use.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to validate the IPS-3 scoring system as a prognostic indicator in 1012 patients with advanced stage classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (cHL) treated by doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine (ABVD). According to the IPS-3 scoring system only 3.5 % had high risk and 50.8 % had low risk disease disease and 45.8 % of the cases had intermediate risk disease. Each factors of IPS-7 and IPS-3 scoring systems (age, sex, stage hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte count and white cell count) were found to be significant for overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) according to univariate analyses. Two different multivariate Cox analyses were performed for OS and PFS including the IPS-3/ IPS-7 scoring system parameters. Among 7 risk factors of IPS scoring system, gender and albumin were not found as independent risk factors for both OS and PFS according to cox regression model. But all parameters such as age, stage and hemoglobin those included in IPS-3, were found to be independent significant risk factors for both models obtained for OS and PFS. The results of the study shows that the IPS-3 scoring system can be used as a prognostic indicator in ABVD treated patients in every day practice which is more easily calculate according to the IPS-7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) can reflect both the myeloid dysfunction and T-cell immune suppression and have prognostic significance. METHODS In 771 newly diagnosed advanced-stage Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) patients we evaluated the baseline values of NLR and LMR as predictors of clinical outcome. According to the multicenter prospective phase II GITIL-HD0607 trial, all patients received two ABVD courses and if PET-2 negative received four additional ABVD cycles while if PET-2-positive patients were randomized to either BEACOPP escalated (Be) plus BEACOPP baseline (Bb) (4 + 4 courses) or Be + Bb (4 + 4) and Rituximab. PET scans were centrally reviewed by an expert panel by Blinded Independent Central Review. RESULTS Higher NLR and lower LMR were associated with a PET-2 positivity and failure to achieve long-term disease control, respectively. By univariate and multivariate analysis, large nodal mass (>7 cm), IPS ≥ 3, NLR > 6 were strong independent predictors of early PET-2 response after ABVD. Only NLR > 6 and IPS ≥ 3 were strong independent predictors of outcome at diagnosis; however, when PET-2 status was added, only PET-2-positive status and IPS ≥ 3 were independent predictors of PFS. Focusing on PET-2-negative patients, those with NLR > 6 had an inferior 3-year PFS compared to patients with NLR ≤ 6 (84% vs 89% months, P = .03). CONCLUSION In advanced-stage HL patients treated with a PET-2-driven strategy, IPS ≥ 3 and NLR > 6 are independent predictors of outcome at diagnosis while the presence of large nodal mass, IPS ≥ 3, and NLR > 6 at diagnosis are independent predictors of early ABVD response.

Abstract
PURPOSE Escalated BEACOPP (bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone) improves overall survival (OS) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) relative to ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) therapy. However, the associated higher cost and toxicity discourage clinicians from prescribing it. Identifying high-risk patients and administering escalated BEACOPP remains an effective strategy. We assessed the significance of interim positron emission tomography (iPET) scan after 2 cycles (iPET2) in identifying this high-risk subset. PATIENTS AND METHODS This cohort study used secondary data from 12 tertiary care centers in South India gathered over 10 years (2008-2018). OS, event-free survival (EFS), determinants of EFS, and complete response (CR) in iPET2 were assessed. RESULTS The study included 409 patients with HL (mean age, 34.5 years; male/female ratio, 1.4:1). The median duration of follow-up was 2.8 years. Of 409 patients, 63% underwent PET-based staging and 37% underwent computerized tomography (CT) staging. Stage IV (28.9%) and bone involvement (9.2%) were seen more often with PET than with CT staging (9.2% and 2%, respectively). Among 171 patients with iPET2 results, 24% did not achieve CR, and no factors were significantly associated. The 5-year EFS and OS rates of the entire cohort were 78% and 97%, respectively. The 5-year EFS and OS rates of patients with CR on iPET2 were 90% and 99%, respectively, whereas these were 65% and 100%, respectively, for patients not achieving CR. On univariable analysis, sex, stage, and iPET2 response significantly predicted inferior EFS. On multivariate analysis, only iPET2 response significantly predicted EFS (P < .000). CONCLUSION Our study supports the use of PET for staging and iPET2 for response assessment. Nonachievement of CR on iPET2 indicates unfavorable outcome, and such patients may benefit from more intensive treatment.

Abstract
Advanced classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) is a rare lymphoid disease characterized by the presence of Hodgkin and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells. Each year, cHL accounts for 0.5% of all new cancer diagnoses and about 80% are diagnosed with advanced stage disease. Given the significant improvement in cure rates, the focus of treatment has shifted towards minimization of acute and long-term toxicities. PET-adapted strategies have largely been adopted as standard of care in the United States in an attempt to balance toxicities with adequate lymphoma control. However, the appropriate upfront chemotherapy regimen (ABVD versus eBEACOPP) remains controversial.

Abstract
The International Prognostic Score (IPS) is the most commonly used risk stratification tool for patients with advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). It incorporates seven clinical parameters independently associated with a poorer outcome: male sex, age, stage IV, hemoglobin level, white blood cell and lymphocyte counts, and albumin level. Since the development of the IPS, there have been significant advances in therapy and supportive care. Recent studies suggest that the IPS is less discriminating due to improved outcomes with ABVD therapy. The aim of the present study was to asses if classic prognostic factors maintain their prognostic meaning at the time of response-adapted treatment based on interim PET scans. We evaluated the prognostic significance of IPS in the 520 advanced stage HL patients enrolled in the PET-guided, HD0801 trial in which PET2-positive patients underwent a more intense treatment with an early stem-cell transplantation after 2 cycles of ABVD. We observed that in these patients, the IPS completely loses its prognostic value together with all the single parameters that contribute to the IPS. Furthermore, neutrophils, monocytes, lymphocytes, and the ratio among them also no longer had any predictive value. We believe that the substantial improvement in survival outcomes in PET2-positive patients treated with early autologous transplantation could explain the complete disappearance of the residual prognostic significance of the IPS.

Abstract
A novel prognostic score (IPS-3), comprised of only three of the seven IPS-7 indicators (age ≥45, stage IV, haemoglobin <105 g/l), was recently proposed as a simplified model for advanced-stage classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). We aimed to validate this model in advanced-stage cHL patients treated with doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine (ABVD) in British Columbia. The estimated five-year freedom from progression (FFP) for scores of 0, 1, 2 and 3 were very similar to the original report at 84%, 76%, 72% and 68% respectively. The IPS-3 score is highly reproducible in this independent dataset and its simplicity makes it appealing for everyday clinical practice.

Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the prognostic significance of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio, prognostic nutritional index, systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and B2M in Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL). Materials & methods: Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, prognostic nutritional index, SII and B2M were analyzed to assess their prognostic value via the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox regression analysis in 122 HL patients, retrospectively. Results: SII was found to have the highest area under curve and the most sensitive and specific among all markers. In univariate analyses, all four parameters were prognostic for overall survival and progression-free survival, in multivariate analyzes only SII was found to be independent factors for both of them. Conclusion: SII can be suggested as a novel independent and better prognostic factor for predicting overall survival and progression-free survival in HL.

Prognostic Utility of the IPS 3 Score for Predicting Outcomes in Advanced Hodgkin Lymphoma. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2018; 19:116-122. [PMID: 30579722 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2018.11.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2018] [Revised: 10/01/2018] [Accepted: 11/02/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) consisting of 7 parameters (IPS7) has been the standard prognostic model used in advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (aHL). However, recent studies have questioned its discriminatory power. For retrospective analyses, its utility might be limited by missing parameters. A recent study has shown that the IPSS consisting of only 3 high-risk features (IPS3; stage IV, age 45 years or older, and hemoglobin <105 g/L) is a simple predictor of survival in aHL. However, there are limited data validating the IPS3. PATIENTS AND METHODS Outcomes of adults with aHL treated between 2001 and 2015 at a single center were retrospectively analyzed with data from medical records. The prognostic validity of various baseline parameters was assessed individually as well as in combination (IPS7 and IPS3 scores). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to describe the event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) and univariate (log rank) and multivariate (Cox regression) tests were performed to identify prognostic factors. RESULTS We identified 314 patients (median age, 32 [range, 18-60] years; male sex [n = 215; 68%]) treated during this period. IPS7 was available in 231 of 314 (73%) and IPS3 in all (100%) patients. Most (71%) were treated with 6 to 8 cycles of ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine) and others received hybrid or cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, prednisolone regimens, and 72 (23%) underwent interim positron emission tomography imaging with escalation to bleomycin, etoposide, adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, prednisolone in 8 patients. After a median follow-up of 57 months (range, 1.3-167), the 5-year EFS and OS were 72% and 82%, respectively. IPS3 produced a wider separation of survival curves than IPS7 in univariate analysis. In multivariate analysis for EFS, IPS3 (scores of 2 or 3 vs. scores of 0 and 1; hazard ratio, 2.1; P = .004) was the only significant predictor. For OS, no factor emerged as significant. CONCLUSION The IPS3 is a simple 3-point system that is very useful for prediction of outcomes in aHL and might be particularly suited for retrospective data analysis where all components of the IPS7 might not be available.

Abstract
The prognostic value of pretreatment serum beta-2 microglobulin (B2MG) level in advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients treated in the modern era has not been well established. We conducted a retrospective study involving 202 advanced classical HL (cHL) patients treated from 1998.5 to 2015.7 to evaluate the impact of serum B2MG level on prognosis. Multivariate analysis showed that serum B2MG level ≥ 2.5 mg/L was an independent predictor for freedom from progression (FFP) (P = 0.001), lymphoma-specific survival (P = 0.030) and overall survival (P = 0.034). The 5-year FFP of patients with serum B2MG level ≥ 2.5 mg/L was 66.8%, compared with 89.7% in patients with B2MG level < 2.5 mg/L (P < 0.001). The traditionally used International Prognostic Score (IPS) remained prognostic for FFP (P = 0.013) but the predictive range narrowed, with 5-year FFP ranging from 90.9% to 62.3%. The 5-year FFP of the 44 patients with both IPS ≥ 3 and serum B2MG ≥ 2.5 mg/L was 50.7%, which was significantly worse than that of the 87 patients with only one of the two factors (81.9%, P < 0.001) or the 71 patients with both B2MG < 2.5 mg/L and IPS < 3 (91.1%, P < 0.001). The difference of FFP between the latter two groups was smaller but also significant (P = 0.038). In summary, our data suggest pretreatment serum B2MG level ≥ 2.5 mg/L was an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in advanced cHL patients treated in the modern era. It improves IPS in predicting the outcomes as the combination of IPS and B2MG indentified a wider prognostic range than IPS alone with a sizable number of patients in different risk groups.

Prognostic meaning of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and lymphocyte to monocyte ration (LMR) in newly diagnosed Hodgkin lymphoma patients treated upfront with a PET-2 based strategy. Ann Hematol 2018; 97:1009-1018. [PMID: 29442162 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-018-3276-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2017] [Accepted: 02/04/2018] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
Recent reports identify NLR (the ratio between absolute neutrophils counts, ANC, and absolute lymphocyte count, ALC), as predictor of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in cancer patients. We retrospectively tested NLR and LMR (the ratio between absolute lymphocyte and monocyte counts) in newly diagnosed Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients treated upfront with a PET-2 risk-adapted strategy. NLR and LMR were calculated using records obtained from the complete blood count (CBC) from 180 newly diagnosed HL patients. PFS was evaluated accordingly to Kaplan-Meier method. Higher NLR was associated to advanced stage, increased absolute counts of neutrophils and reduced count of lymphocytes, and markers of systemic inflammation. After a median follow-up of 68 months, PFS at 60 months was 86.6% versus 70.1%, respectively, in patients with NLR ≥ 6 or NLR < 6. Predictors of PFS at 60 months were PET-2 scan (p < 0.0001), NLR ≥ 6.0 (p = 0.02), LMR < 2 (p = 0.048), and ANC (p = 0.0059) in univariate analysis, but only PET-2 was an independent predictor of PFS in multivariate analysis. Advanced-stage patients (N = 119) were treated according to a PET-2 risk-adapted protocol, with an early switch to BEACOPP regimen in case of PET-2 positivity. Despite this strategy, patients with positive PET-2 still had an inferior outcome, with PFS at 60 months of 84.7% versus 40.1% (negative and positive PET-2 patients, respectively, p < 0.0001). Independent predictors of PFS by multivariate analysis were PET-2 status and to a lesser extend NLR in advanced stage, while LMR maintained its significance in early stage. By focusing on PET-2 negative patients, we found that patients with NLR ≥ 6.0 or LMR < 2 had an inferior outcome compared to patients with both ratios above the cutoff (78.7 versus 91.9 months, p = 0.01). We confirm NLR as predictor of PFS in HL patients independently from stage at diagnosis. Integration of PET-2 scan, NLR and LMR can result in a meaningful prognostic system that needs to be further validated in prospective series including patients treated upfront with PET-2 adapted-risk therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no clear consensus between pediatric and adult providers about the treatment of adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). METHODS Failure-free survival (FFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between 114 patients ages 17 to 21 years with HL who were treated on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group-American College of Radiology Imaging Network Intergroup adult E2496 study and 391 similarly patients ages 17 to 21 years with HL who were treated on the pediatric Children's Oncology Group (COG) AHOD0031 study. RESULTS Comparing AYAs from the COG and E2496 studies, there were no significant differences in extralymphatic disease, anemia, or hypoalbuminemia. More AYAs in the E2496 trial had stage III and IV disease (63% vs 29%; P < .001) and B symptoms (63% vs 27%; P < .001), and fewer had bulk disease (33% vs 77%; P < .001). More AYAs on the COG trial received radiotherapy (76% vs 66%; P = .03), although in smaller doses. E2496 AYA The 5-year FFS and OS rates were 68% and 89%, respectively in the E2496 AYAs and 81% and 97%, respectively, in the COG AYAs, indicating a statistically superior compared in the COG AYAs (P = .001). In stratified multivariable analyses, E2496 AYAs had worse FFS than COG AYAs in all strata except patients who had stage I and II HL without anemia. Propensity score analysis (based on stage, anemia, and bulk disease) confirmed inferior FFS for E2496 AYAs compared with COG AYAs (P = .004). On the E2496 study, FFS was significantly divergent across age groups (P = .005), with inferior outcomes for those ages 17 to 21 years versus 22-44 years. There was no difference across age on the COG study. CONCLUSIONS Younger AYA patients with HL appear to have better outcomes when treated on a pediatric trial than patients of similar age on an adult trial. Prospective studies examining these differences are warranted. Cancer 2018;124:136-44. © 2017 American Cancer Society.

Abstract
Lymphomas are responsible for approximately 20% to 25% of annual cancer diagnoses in the adolescent and young adult (AYA) population. In 2006, the National Cancer Institute and the Lance Armstrong Foundation developed a joint Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology Progress Review Group (AYAO-PRG) to formally address the unique cancer burden of patients age 15 to 39 years. As part of their recommendations, the AYAO-PRG identified 5 imperatives for improving outcomes of AYAs with cancer. Broadly, the recommended areas of focus included research, awareness and education, investigational infrastructure, care delivery, and advocacy. In response to the challenges highlighted by the AYAO-PRG, the Lymphoma Research Foundation held the first AYA Lymphoma Research Foundation Symposium on 2 October 2015. At this symposium, clinicians and basic scientists from both pediatric and adult disciplines gave presentations describing the state of the science and proposed a collaborative research agenda built on the imperatives proposed by the AYAO-PRG. The following review presents an in-depth discussion of lymphoma management across pediatric and adult oncologic disciplines, focusing on Hodgkin lymphoma, mature B-cell lymphomas, and anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

Abstract
The National Clinical Trials Network lymphoid malignancies Clinical Trials Planning Meeting (CTPM) occurred in November of 2014. The scope of the CTPM was to prioritize across the lymphoid tumors clinically significant questions and to foster strategies leading to biologically informed and potentially practice changing clinical trials. This review from the Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) subcommittee of the CTPM discusses the ongoing clinical challenges in HL, outlines the current standard of care for HL patients from early to advanced stage, and surveys the current science with respect to biomarkers and the landscape of ongoing clinical trials. Finally, we suggest areas of unmet need in HL and elucidate promising therapeutic strategies to guide future HL clinical trials planning across the NCTN.

Abstract
Background: The International Prognostic Score (IPS) was developed based on the data of Western advanced Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients treated before 1992. Only a few studies ever evaluated the application value of IPS in Chinese population or in patients treated in the contemporary era whose outcomes has improved significantly than before. Methods: We conducted a retrospective study involving 208 previously untreated Chinese advanced HL patients, who were admitted to Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from January 1, 1999 to April 30, 2015 and received uniform first-line treatment. The prognostic value of both IPS and the seven IPS factors for freedom-from progression (FFP) and overall survival (OS) was assessed in this population. The statistical methods included Kaplan-Meier methodology, log-rank testing, and Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. Results: With a median follow-up time of 79 months (range, 15–210 months), the 5-year FFP and OS were 78.8% and 86.0% respectively, which improved obviously compared with the original IPS study. The IPS remained prognostic for both FFP (P = 0.041) and OS (P = 0.013), but the range narrowed obviously, with 5-year FFP ranging from 87.2% to 61.5%, 5-year OS ranging from 94.1% to 69.2%, and the separation of survival curves was not as good as before. Only two of the seven IPS factors showed a significant independent prognostic value in the multivariate analysis: Stage IV (for FFP, hazard ratio [HR] = 2.219, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.148–3.948, P = 0.016; for OS, HR = 2.491, 95% CI: 1.159–5.355, P = 0.019) and hemoglobin <105 g/L (for FFP, HR = 2.136, 95% CI: 1.123–4.060, P = 0.021; for OS, HR = 2.345, 95% CI: 1.099–5.042, P = 0.028). A simple prognostic score calculated by adding one point each for any of the two factors was prognostic both for FFP (P < 0.001) and OS (P < 0.001) with the survival curves separating very well, but the range still narrowed. Conclusions: The IPS has decreased the prognostic value in Chinese advanced HL patients treated in the contemporary era. More prognostic factors are needed to supplement this original scoring system so as to identify different risk populations more accurately.

Abstract
Hodgkin lymphoma is a unique disease entity characterized by a low number of neoplastic tumor cells surrounded by an inflammatory microenvironment composed of dysfunctional immune cells. Recent molecular and genetic studies have revealed that upregulation of the immune checkpoint pathway programmed death 1/programmed death ligand 1 is a key oncogenic driver of Hodgkin lymphoma. Corroborating these mechanistic studies, early-phase clinical trials using the checkpoint inhibitors nivolumab and pembrolizumab in treatment regimens for relapsed and/or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma have demonstrated impressive response rates, a promising durability of response, and a favorable side-effect profile. Given its targeted mechanism of action, acceptable safety, and clinically meaningful activity, the checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab was recently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration as therapy for classical Hodgkin lymphoma that has relapsed or progressed after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and post-ASCT consolidation therapy with brentuximab vedotin. In this article we review the scientific rationale, preclinical evidence, and most recent clinical data for the use of checkpoint inhibitor therapy in patients with relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma.

Abstract
The acquisition of a complete neoplastic phenotype requires cancer cells to develop escape mechanisms from the host immune system. This phenomenon, commonly referred to as 'immune evasion,' represents a hallmark of cancers and results from a Darwinian selection of the fittest tumor clones. First reported in solid tumors, cancer immunoescape characterizes several hematological malignancies. The biological bases of cancer immunoescape have recently been disclosed and include: (i) impaired human leukocyte antigen-mediated cancer cell recognition (B2M, CD58, CTIIA, CD80/CD86, CD28 and CTLA-4 mutations); (ii) deranged apoptotic mechanisms (reduced pro-apoptotic signals and/or increased expression of anti-apoptotic molecules); and (iii) changes in the tumor microenvironment involving regulatory T cells and tumor-associated macrophages. These immune-escape mechanisms characterize both Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin (B and T cell) lymphomas and represent a promising target for new anti-tumor therapies. In the present review, the principles of cancer immunoescape and their role in human lymphomagenesis are illustrated. Current therapies targeting these pathways and possible applications for lymphoma treatment are also addressed.

Abstract
There is now good evidence that the escalated BEACOPP regimen (bleomycin, etoposide, adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, prednisone) is more effective in controlling advanced-stage Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) than the widely used ABVD regimen (adriamycin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine), but the extra efficacy comes at the expense of both short- and long-term toxicity, and there is debate as to whether overall survival is affected. Baseline prognostic factors have proven of limited utility for determining which patients require more intensive therapy and recent studies have sought to use interim fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) evaluation as a means to guide the modulation of treatment, both upwards and downwards in intensity. These suggest that if treatment starts with ABVD then patients remaining PET-positive after 2 months can be salvaged with escalated BEACOPP in around 65% of cases, but those becoming PET-negative may still experience recurrences in 15%-20%, an event that is more common in those with more advanced disease at presentation. There are early data to suggest that starting with escalated BEACOPP may reduce the rate of recurrence after a negative interim PET to less than 10%. This may be an attractive approach for those with very high-risk features at presentation, but risks overtreating many patients if applied nonselectively. New regimens incorporating antibody-drug conjugates may shift the balance of efficacy and toxicity once again, and further studies are underway to evaluate this.

Abstract
PURPOSE Four US National Clinical Trials Network components (Southwest Oncology Group, Cancer and Leukemia Group B/Alliance, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group, and the AIDS Malignancy Consortium) conducted a phase II Intergroup clinical trial that used early interim fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) imaging to determine the utility of response-adapted therapy for stage III to IV classic Hodgkin lymphoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS The Southwest Oncology Group S0816 (Fludeoxyglucose F 18-PET/CT Imaging and Combination Chemotherapy With or Without Additional Chemotherapy and G-CSF in Treating Patients With Stage III or Stage IV Hodgkin Lymphoma) trial enrolled 358 HIV-negative patients between July 1, 2009, and December 2, 2012. A PET scan was performed after two initial cycles of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine (ABVD) and was labeled PET2. PET2-negative patients (Deauville score 1 to 3) received an additional four cycles of ABVD, whereas PET2-positive patients (Deauville score 4 to 5) were switched to escalated bleomycin, etoposide, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (eBEACOPP) for six cycles. Among 336 eligible and evaluable patients, the median age was 32 years (range, 18 to 60 years), with 52% stage III, 48% stage IV, 49% International Prognostic Score 0 to 2, and 51% score 3 to 7. RESULTS Three hundred thirty-six of the enrolled patients were evaluable. Central review of the interim PET2 scan was performed in 331 evaluable patients, with 271 (82%) PET2-negative and 60 (18%) PET2-positive. Of 60 eligible PET2-positive patients, 49 switched to eBEACOPP as planned and 11 declined. With a median follow-up of 39.7 months, the Kaplan-Meier estimate for 2-year overall survival was 98% (95% CI, 95% to 99%), and the 2-year estimate for progression-free survival (PFS) was 79% (95% CI, 74% to 83%). The 2-year estimate for PFS in the subset of patients who were PET2-positive after two cycles of ABVD was 64% (95% CI, 50% to 75%). Both nonhematologic and hematologic toxicities were greater in the eBEACOPP arm than in the continued ABVD arm. CONCLUSION Response-adapted therapy based on interim PET imaging after two cycles of ABVD seems promising with a 2-year PFS of 64% for PET2-positive patients, which is much higher than the expected 2-year PFS of 15% to 30%.

Abstract
Although patients with advanced-stage classic Hodgkin lymphoma have excellent outcomes with contemporary therapy, the outcomes of patients with refractory disease is suboptimal. Identification of these high-risk patients at diagnosis is challenging as the differences in outcomes using clinical criteria are less marked using current modern therapy. Data suggest that an interim PET-CT may be a powerful tool in risk-stratifying patients. Retrospective studies show that a negative interim PET-CT after two to four cycles of ABVD (doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, dacarbazine) is predictive of favorable outcome independent of IPS score. Currently, there are several ongoing trials that aim to determine whether early-response assessment can be used to select patients who might benefit from modifications of subsequent therapy, either by intensifying or abbreviating regimens and/or omitting radiotherapy with promising early results. Longer follow-up is required to assess whether this strategy impacts overall survival (OS). Herein, we review the results of recent trials using interim PET-CT-based adaptive design in the treatment of advanced HL.
