Abstract
The relationship between HCV infection and extrahepatic manifestations has been demonstrated by epidemiological, clinical, immunological and pathological studies. Patients with HCV infection have an increased risk of morbidity and mortality related to these non-liver diseases. For these reasons, HCV chronic infection should be considered a systemic disease in which extrahepatic manifestations increase the severity of the disease. HCV-extrahepatic manifestations may severely affect the overall prognosis, while viral eradication significantly reduces non-liver related deaths. Over the past 5 years, treatment of chronic HCV infection in patients with hematologic malignancies has evolved rapidly and effective and safe direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) have become the standardof-care treatment. The choice of regimens with DAAs should be individualized after thorough assessment for potential hematologic toxic effects and drug-drug interactions. Elimination of HCV from infected cancer patients confers virologic, hepatic, and oncologic benefits.

Risk adapted approach: How to treat splenic marginal zone lymphoma in resource-poor settings? - The real-life experience of a Brazilian cancer treatment center. BMC Cancer 2020; 20:717. [PMID: 32746790 PMCID: PMC7397612 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-020-07204-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2020] [Accepted: 07/22/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a rare lymphoid B-cell malignant neoplasm with primary involvement of the spleen. It is a chronic disease, of indolent behavior and prolonged survival. However, 25% of cases have higher biological aggressiveness, propensity for histological transformation to high grade B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma and shortened survival. Recognition of these cases of reserved outcome is important for selecting a risk-adapted therapeutic approach in a resource-poor settings. Methods We described clinical and epidemiological characteristics, survival analysis and prognostic factors in a retrospective cohort of 39 SMZL patients, treated in Latin America. Results We observed a predominance of female (71.8%), median age of 63 years and higher incidence of B symptoms (56.4%) and extra-splenic involvement (87.1%) than in European and North-American series. With a median follow-up of 8.7 years (0.6-20.2 years), estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 76.9% and 63.7%, respectively. Factors with adverse prognostic impact on OS and PFS were Hb < 100 g/L, platelet count < 100 x 109/L, albumin < 3.5 g/dL, LDH > 480 U/L and high-risk Arcaini and SMZL/WG scores. Despite a relative low number of patients, no superiority was observed among the therapeutic regimens used including rituximab monotherapy, splenectomy and cytotoxic chemotherapy. Conclusion Therefore, in resource-poor settings, where access to immunotherapy is not universal for all SMZL patients, we suggest that first-line should consist on rituximab therapy for elderly patients or with high surgical risk or with at least 1 risk factor identified in our study. Remainders can be safely managed with splenectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with chronic HCV infection are at increased risk of developing B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). Regression of HCV-associated B-NHL (HCV-NHL) can be achieved through HCV eradication using interferon (IFN). However, only about two-thirds of patients with sustained virological response (SVR) also had a consecutive lymphoma response. miRNA-26b is associated with HCV-NHL response to antiviral therapy. Recent data suggest that IFN-free direct-acting antiviral (DAA) regimens also have anti-lymphoma activity in this patient population. METHODS We report four patients with HCV-NHL who were treated with different IFN-free DAA regimens as oncological monotherapy in our centre between 2015 and 2016. We analysed the virological and lymphoproliferative disease response. Moreover, we analysed miRNA-26b expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells at different time points during antiviral therapy for all included patients as well as for a total of 10 controls with (n=5) and without (n=5) chronic HCV infection. RESULTS All patients had marginal zone lymphoma subtype and received different DAA regimens for 12-24 weeks. All four patients achieved SVR, but only three patients also had lymphoma response (one complete response, two partial responses). One patient showed progression to a high-grade lymphoma subtype after SVR. miRNA-26b expression was generally decreased in patients with HCV-NHL. Moreover, miRNA-26b expression was restored in those HCV-NHL patients with lymphoma response after 6 months (P=0.009). CONCLUSIONS We have demonstrated that IFN-free DAA treatment of HCV can improve or even cure NHL. miRNA-26b-levels could be a potentially useful biomarker to predict lymphoma response in HCV-NHL patients.

Abstract
Previous studies showed that monoclonal immunoglobulins G (IgGs) of “monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance” (MGUS) and myeloma were hyposialylated, thus presumably pro-inflammatory, and for about half of patients, the target of the monoclonal IgG was either a virus—Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), other herpes viruses, hepatitis C virus (HCV)—or a glucolipid, lysoglucosylceramide (LGL1), suggesting antigen-driven disease in these patients. In the present study, we show that monoclonal IgAs share these characteristics. We collected 35 sera of patients with a monoclonal IgA (6 MGUS, 29 myeloma), and we were able to purify 25 of the 35 monoclonal IgAs (6 MGUS, 19 myeloma). Monoclonal IgAs from MGUS and myeloma patients were significantly less sialylated than IgAs from healthy volunteers. When purified monoclonal IgAs were tested against infectious pathogens and LGL1, five myeloma patients had a monoclonal IgA that specifically recognized viral proteins: the core protein of HCV in one case, EBV nuclear antigen 1 (EBNA-1) in four cases (21.1% of IgA myeloma). Monoclonal IgAs from three myeloma patients reacted against LGL1. In summary, monoclonal IgAs are hyposialylated and as described for IgG myeloma, significant subsets (8/19, or 42%) of patients with IgA myeloma may have viral or self (LGL1) antigen-driven disease.

Abstract
Recent studies have demonstrated feasibility and substantial benefit of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) administration during or after first-line immune-chemotherapy (I-CT) in patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV)-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL). However, data on DAAs used during or after salvage treatments are still lacking. In this study we assessed clinical and virological outcome in 11 patients with relapsed (n = 7) or refractory (n = 4) HCV-positive DLBCL. DAAs were given either concurrently (n = 3) or subsequent (n = 8) to salvage I-CT. Most patients (10 of 11) received sofosbuvir-based regimens. All patients completed their planned courses of DAAs and achieved sustained virological response. DAAs were well tolerated, with no grade ≥2 adverse events. At a median follow-up of 3.6 years four patients died (4-year OS: 76%). In conclusion, we provide evidence that DAAs in HCV-positive relapsed/refractory DLBCL are extremely safe and effective, suggesting that they should be used if HCV eradication was not instituted before.

Abstract
Defects in biliary transport proteins, MDR3 in humans and Mdr2 in mice, can lead to a spectrum of cholestatic liver disorders. Although B cell disorders and the aberrant Ab production are the leading extrahepatic manifestations of cholestatic liver diseases, the mechanism underlying this phenomenon is incompletely understood. Using mice with deficiency of Mdr2 that progressively develop cholestatic liver disease, we investigated the contributions of BAFF to aberrant IgG autoantibody production and hepatic fibrosis. In Mdr2-/- mice, hepatic B lymphocytes constitutively produced IgG during fibrosis progression, which correlated with elevated serum levels of BAFF, antinuclear Abs (ANA) and immune complexes. The elevated BAFF and ANA titers were also detected in human patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis and hepatobiliary cholangiopathies. Consistent with the higher BAFF levels, liver-specific selection of the focused BCR IgH repertoire was found on hepatic B cells in Mdr2-/- mice. Interestingly, the administration of anti-BAFF mAb in Mdr2-/- mice altered the BCR repertoire on hepatic B lymphocytes and resulted in reduced ANA and immune complex titers. However, anti-BAFF treatment did not attenuate hepatic fibrosis as measured by collagen deposition, hepatic expressions of collagen-1a, α-smooth muscle actin, and mononuclear cell infiltration (CD11b+ Ly-6chi monocytes and CD11b+ Gr1+ neutrophils). Importantly, depletion of B cells by anti-CD20 mAb reduced both hepatic fibrosis and serum levels of ANA and immune complexes. Our findings implicate B cells as the potential therapeutic targets for hepatic fibrosis and targeting BAFF specifically for attenuating the autoantibody production associated with cholestatic liver disease.

Int J Hematol 2019; 111:409-416.

Abstract
Patients with indolent non-Hodgkin lymphoma (iNHL) typically respond to first-line immunochemotherapy, but relapse is common. Treatment options for relapsed iNHL include chemotherapy ± rituximab and rituximab monotherapy. Lenalidomide plus rituximab (R2) is an immunomodulatory regimen that enhances rituximab-mediated cytotoxicity and improves clinical activity in iNHL. AUGMENT was a double-blind phase III randomized trial of R2 vs. rituximab + placebo (R-placebo) in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma or marginal zone lymphoma who were not refractory to rituximab. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Data reported here focus on Japanese patients from AUGMENT and reflect 36 patients (n = 18, each group). PFS was superior in the R2 group, HR = 0.32 (95% CI 0.11-0.96). Median PFS was not reached (95% CI 19.7-NE) in the R2 group vs. 16.5 months (95% CI 11.3-30.6) in the R-placebo group. Grade 3/4 adverse events were more frequent in patients treated with R2 (67%) than with R-placebo (22%), primarily attributable to increased neutropenia (50% vs 17%). R2 resulted in significantly longer median PFS than R-placebo in Japanese patients with R/R iNHL, and the efficacy and the safety profile of R2 were similar to those reported in the global population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Direct antiviral agents have greatly improved therapeutic options for chronic hepatitis C. Indeed, former "difficult-to-treat" patients can now be treated and can achieve sustained response. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is associated with hepatocellular carcinoma and with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). Other malignancies have been reported to be associated with HCV infection albeit with various grades of evidence. Antineoplastic treatment is often reduced or suspended in HCV-positive cancer patients to avoid "HCV reactivation." In this setting, antiviral therapy combined with antineoplastic protocols may improve the outcome. For this reason, we conducted a systematic review and a meta-analysis to update the association between HCV infection and non-hepatocellular malignancies, and to shed light on the effects exerted by antiviral treatment on the natural history of oncological diseases. METHODS Relevant studies were identified by searching PUBMED, EMBASE and MEDLINE up to 1 August 2018. Pooled risk estimates were calculated with random-effects models according to PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS A total of 58 studies were included in the analysis: 27 studies of the association between HCV and B-NHL(OR 3.36; 95% CI 2.40-4.72;P < 0.00001);13 studies of the association between sustained virological response and progression-free survival (PFS) in B-NHL patients(OR 9.34; 95% CI 4.90-17.79; P < 0.00001); 13 studies of the association between HCV and intrahepatic-cholangio-carcinoma (OR 3.95;95% CI 2.25-6.94; P < 0.00001); and 5 studies of the association between HCV infection and pancreatic adeno-carcinoma(OR 1.60; 95% CI:1.25-2.04; P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS This study updates the strong association between B-NHL and HCV infection, confirms the association between HCV and non-hepatocellular tumours, and demonstrates a very strong association between viral eradication and a better outcome of HCV-positive B-NHL.

Abstract
In addition to liver disorders, hepatitis C virus (HCV) is also associated with extrahepatic immune manifestations and B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), especially marginal zone lymphoma, de novo or transformed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and to a lesser extent, follicular lymphoma. Epidemiological data and clinical observations argue for an association between HCV and lymphoproliferative disorders. The causative role of HCV in NHL has been further supported by the response to antiviral therapy. Pathophysiological processes at stake leading from HCV infection to overt lymphoma still need to be further elucidated. Based on reported biological studies, several mechanisms of transformation seem however to emerge. A strong body of evidence supports the hypothesis of an indirect transformation mechanism by which sustained antigenic stimulation leads from oligoclonal to monoclonal expansion and sometimes to frank lymphoma, mostly of marginal zone subtype. By infecting lymphocytes, HCV could play a direct role in cellular transformation, particularly in de novo large B-cell lymphoma. Finally, HCV is associated with follicular lymphoma in a subset of patients. In this setting, it may be hypothesized that inflammatory cytokines stimulate proliferation and transformation of IgH-BCL2 clones that are increased during chronic HCV infection. Unraveling the pathogenesis of HCV-related B-cell lymphoproliferation is of prime importance to optimize therapeutic strategies, especially with the recent development of new direct-acting antiviral drugs.

Primary extranodal lymphoma of the glands. Literature review and options for best practice in 2019. Crit Rev Oncol Hematol 2019; 135:8-19. [PMID: 30819450 DOI: 10.1016/j.critrevonc.2019.01.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2017] [Revised: 12/04/2018] [Accepted: 01/15/2019] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Primary extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (EN-NHL) are a heterogeneous group of malignancies that involve numerous entities with significant difference in terms of tumor site locations, prognostic factors, biology expression, and therapeutic options. In the literature, many EN-NHL types were reported from limited series which only allowed narrow views for elucidating prognostic factors and defining the role of loco-regional therapies in the era of new systemic and biologically targeted therapies. The Rare Cancer Network (RCN), an international multidisciplinary consortium, has published a number of reports on several EN-NHL sites which included many gland locations. In this review, we will focus on the recent literature for a selected number of EN-NHL types in both exocrine and endocrine gland locations. We aim to provide renewed and clear messages for the best practice in 2019 for diagnosis, histopathology, treatments, and also their prognostic implications. We believe that better understanding of molecular and genetic characteristics of these particular diseases is crucial for an appropriate management in the era of personalized treatment developments.

Abstract
Chronic hepatitis C (HCV) virus infection may be associated with several non-hepatic manifestations, mainly driven by chronic immune stimulation, such as mixed cryoglobulinemia and Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. This association has been proved by several meta-analyses and some interventional studies demonstrating that antiviral treatment may be effective in inducing HCV-associated lymphoma regression. The recent advent of direct acting antivirals (DAAs) in the therapeutic armamentarium of HCV infection made possible treatment of patients with advanced liver disease. Here we report on a rare association of a cirrhotic patient with HCV and Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia with severe cryoglobulinemia, who had already failed an interferon-based antiviral regimen, whose haematologic disease was ameliorated by HCV eradication following treatment with sofosbuvir and simeprevir with ribavirin, and where successful treatment was accompanied also by consistent improvement in liver function and parameters of portal hypertension.

Abstract
RATIONALE Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) belong to Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). DLBCL rarely involves the orbit. MALT lymphomas, which account for 8.0% of NHLs, rarely involve parotid gland, trachea and bronchus. PATIENT CONCERNS We present a rare case of a long-surviving patient (≥10 years) with sequential development of multifocal recurrent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) and diffuse large B-Cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In August 2007, a 41-year-old man developed MALT lymphoma in the parotid gland and local irradiation was administered. In July 2008, he exhibited systemic multifocal lymphadenopathy and was diagnosed with DLBCL. He received standard combination chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. He was well until February 2013 when he developed MALT lymphoma of the bronchus. Subsequently, he received standard combination chemotherapy. In November 2013, the patient had a relapse of the MALT lymphoma by tracheal biopsy and received local radiation. He was well until March 2015 when he developed a MALT lymphoma of the left thigh. He underwent surgery, local irradiation and rituximab monotherapy. In September 2015, surgical resection of the left orbital masses was performed, and the biopsy revealed the presence of DLBCL. One month later, lymphadenopathy was palpated in the neck, the lower left region of the umbilicus, and the left calf. Then he received chemotherapy with rituximab and lenalidomide. In March 2016, the patient underwent surgical resection for a right popliteal mass, and the resection biopsy revealed DLBCL. To date, the patient is still alive. DIAGNOSES The patient was diagnosed as multifocal recurrent MALT and DLBCL. INTERVENTIONS Repeated positron emission tomography-computed tomography (CT) and biopsy were performed. OUTCOMES CT and biopsy revealed sequential development of multifocal recurrent NHLs of MALT lymphoma and DLBCL. The correlation between MALT and DLBCL may represent a Richter transformation. Standard treatments, such as combination chemotherapy, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and irradiation, may be driving factors for phenotypic changes in neoplastic cells. LESSONS Physicians should pay particular attention to the long-term development of other types of NHL after achieving complete remission of one type of NHL.

Abstract
Marginal zone lymphomas (MZLs) consist of a diverse family of malignancies, which are derived from B-cells. The disease subtypes are recognized extranodal, nodal, and splenic MZLs. The disease characteristics, clinical course, and treatment vary considerably based on the site of involvement. In 2017, the US Food and Drug Administration approved ibrutinib, a first in class Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor that revolutionized the care of chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients; for, the treatment of relapsed/refractory MZL based on pivotal open-label Phase II trial demonstrated an overall response rate of 48%, with a complete response rate of 3%, median progression-free survival of 14.2 months, and median overall survival not yet reached at a median follow-up of 19.4 months. In this review, we aim to summarize the current conundrums in the management of MZL and the evolving role of ibrutinib in the treatment of MZL.

Abstract
Oncoviruses are implicated in approximately 12% of all human cancers. A large number of the world's population harbors at least one of these oncoviruses, but only a small proportion of these individuals go on to develop cancer. The interplay between host and viral factors is a complex process that works together to create a microenvironment conducive to oncogenesis. In this review, the molecular biology and oncogenic pathways of established human oncoviruses will be discussed. Currently, there are seven recognized human oncoviruses, which include Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), Human Papillomavirus (HPV), Hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV and HCV), Human T-cell lymphotropic virus-1 (HTLV-1), Human Herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8), and Merkel Cell Polyomavirus (MCPyV). Available and emerging therapies for these oncoviruses will be mentioned.

Abstract
The link between hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and the development of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma is now well established and based on a number of epidemiological studies. It is further supported by the observation of lymphoma regression after HCV eradication by antiviral treatment. The far most frequent entities are marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). MZL usually emerge on a background of mixed cryoglobulinemia, a low-grade lymphoproliferation, and often transform into DLBCL, thereby following a multistep oncogenesis process. The role of HCV in lymphomagenesis is not yet fully understood but several mechanisms have been proposed including (i) chronic external stimulation through the B-cell receptor and other surface receptors, and (ii) direct transformation by intracellular viral proteins, the former being probably predominant in MZL. Regression of HCV-associated MZL can be achieved with antiviral therapy and the novel generation of direct-acting antiviral agents appears highly effective and safe for the treatment of these lymphoma.

Abstract
Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of the mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) arise from lymphoid populations that are induced by chronic inflammation in extranodal sites. Among the MALT lymphomas, gastrointestinal (GIT) MALT lymphoma is the most frequent compared to non-GIT MALT lymphoma arising from other sites. Gastric MALT lymphoma has been the first to be described with the evidence of an etiopathogenetic link provided by the association between Helicobacter pylori-positive gastritis and gastric MALT lymphoma. Indeed, successful eradication of this micro-organism with antibiotics can be followed by a lymphoma regression in most cases. When there is no association with Helicobacter pylori, there is no clear therapeutic consensus. Both radiotherapy and systemic treatments with chemotherapy and anti-CD20 antibodies are efficacious and thus the experience of individual centers and each patient's preferences in terms of adverse effects are important parameters in the decision process.

Abstract
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a low-grade B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma characterized by massive splenomegaly, moderate lymphocytosis with or without villous lymphocytes, rare involvement of peripheral lymph nodes and indolent clinical course. As a rare disease, with no randomized prospective trials, there is no standard of care for SMZL so far. Splenectomy has been done for many years as an attempt to control disease, but nowadays it has not been encouraged as first line because of new advances in therapy as rituximab, that are as effective with minimal toxicity. Facing these controversies, this review highlights advances in the literature regarding diagnosis, prognostic factors, treatment indications and therapeutic options.

Abstract
Many epidemiological studies provide solid evidence for an association of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (B-NHL). However, the most convincing evidence for a causal relationship between HCV infection and lymphoma development is the observation of B-NHL regression after HCV eradication by antiviral therapy (AVT). We conducted a literature search to identify studies that included patients with HCV-associated B-NHL (HCV-NHL) who received AVT, with the intention to treat lymphoma and viral disease at the same time. The primary end point was the correlation of sustained virological response (SVR) under AVT with lymphoma response. Secondary end points were overall lymphoma response rates and HCV-NHL response in correlation with lymphoma subtypes. We included 20 studies that evaluated the efficacy of AVT in HCV-NHL (n = 254 patients). Overall lymphoma response rate through AVT was 73% [95%>confidence interval, (CI) 67-78%]. Throughout studies there was a strong association between SVR and lymphoma response (83% response rate, 95%>CI, 76-88%) compared to a failure in achieving SVR (53% response rate, 95%>CI, 39-67%, P = 0.0002). There was a trend towards favourable response for AVT in HCV-associated marginal zone lymphomas (response rate 81%, 95%>CI, 74-87%) compared to nonmarginal zone origin (response rate 71%, 95%>CI, 61-79%, P = 0.07). In conclusion, in the current meta-analysis, the overall response rate of HCV-NHL under AVT justifies the recommendation for AVT as first-line treatment in patients who do not need immediate conventional treatment. The strong correlation of SVR and lymphoma regression supports the hypothesis of a causal relationship of HCV and lymphomagenesis.

Abstract
Extranodal marginal zone (MZ) B-cell lymphomas of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) arise from lymphoid populations that are induced by chronic inflammation in extranodal sites. The best evidence of an etiopathogenetic link is provided by the association between Helicobacter pylori–positive gastritis and gastric MALT lymphoma. Indeed, successful eradication of this microorganism with antibiotics can be followed by gastric MALT lymphoma regression in most cases. Other microbial agents have been implicated in the pathogenesis of MZ lymphoma arising at different sites. Apart from gastric MALT lymphoma, antibiotic therapies have been adequately tested only in ocular adnexal MALT lymphomas where upfront doxycycline may be a reasonable and effective initial treatment of patients with Chlamydophila psittaci–positive lymphoma before considering more aggressive strategies. In all other instances, antibiotic treatment of nongastric lymphomas remains investigational. Indeed, there is no clear consensus for the treatment of patients with gastric MALT lymphoma requiring further treatment beyond H pylori eradication or with extensive disease. Both radiotherapy and systemic treatments with chemotherapy and anti-CD20 antibodies are efficacious and thus the experience of individual centers and each patient’s preferences in terms of adverse effects are important parameters in the decision process.

Abstract
OPINION STATEMENT There is strong evidence to corroborate the association with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) to gastric extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (ENMZL) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) to splenic/nodal marginal zone lymphoma. Koch's postulates generally hold for these two associations and eradication of the infectious agent is well supported. Hp eradication (HPE) is recommended as front-line therapy for early stage gastric ENMZL regardless of Hp status. Complete response (CR) rate for Hp-negative patients is not as high as for Hp-positive patients; however, the benign nature of HPE and high rates of salvage allow this strategy to be safe while sparing some Hp-negative patients from systemic therapy or radiation. Similarly for HCV-seropositive patients, treatment with antivirals should be strongly considered as first-line for those who do not require immediate cytoreductive therapy or at some point even after completing chemoimmunotherapy. The controversy regarding the role for antibiotics is greatest for primary ocular adnexal lymphoma (POAL). Considering the low incidence of Chlamydia psittaci (Cp) infection with OAL and the challenges to reliably identifying Cp, we typically do not consider doxycycline in POAL treatment. Involved-field radiotherapy (IFRT) remains the treatment of choice for most with unilateral POAL. However, if reliable detection of Cp is available and Cp is identified, patients with unilateral low tumor stage POAL who do not require immediate radiotherapy could be considered for doxycycline as front-line treatment. Other infectious associations to indolent lymphomas have been made, including Borrelia borgdorferi (Bb) in cutaneous lymphoma and Campylobacter in immunoproliferative small intestinal disease (IPSID), but these associations are not as strong and primary treatment targeting the infectious agents is not recommended.

Abstract
Marginal zone lymphoma represents about 10% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHLs). 33% of patients with acquired angioedema (AAE) due to acquired C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency (C1-INH-AAE) have or will develop NHLs. C1-INH-AAE is a rare condition. We report the follow-up of 72 C1-INH-AAE patients, followed for a median of 15 years (range 1-24). Median age was 71 (range 64-79) years; median age at onset of angioedema symptoms was 57·5 (range 50-66) years and it was 63 [range 45-80) years at diagnosis]. Twenty patients were diagnosed with low-grade non-follicular B-cell lymphomas (75% were splenic MZL), one with follicular and three with high-grade lymphomas (two diffuse large B-cell lymphomas and one mantle cell lymphoma). Fifteen NHLs were diagnosed at onset of AAE or thereafter (3 months to 7 years), eight had already been diagnosed at onset of angioedema. Two of 24 patients remain on watchful wait. Thirthen of 24 received chemotherapy, two received rituximab. Three underwent splenectomy. All 18 patients receiving therapy for NHL experienced post-treatment reduction in AAE symptoms. Our study suggests that clonal B-cell proliferation is the pathology underlying AAE leading to production of C1-INH-neutralizing autoantibodies and to NHLs. The post-germinal centre origin of NHL suggests that immune stimulation may contribute to lymphomagenesis.

Abstract
Extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) arise from lymphoid populations that are induced by chronic inflammation in extranodal sites. The most frequently affected organ is the stomach, where MALT lymphoma is incontrovertibly associated with a chronic gastritis induced by a microbial pathogen, Helicobacter pylori. Gastric MALT lymphoma therefore represents a paradigm for evaluating inflammation-associated lymphomagenesis, which may lead to a deeper understanding of a possible etiologic association between other microorganisms and nongastric marginal zone lymphomas. Besides infectious etiology, chronic inflammation caused by autoimmune diseases, such as Sjögren syndrome or Hashimoto thyroiditis, can also carry a significant risk factor for the development of marginal zone lymphoma. In addition to the continuous antigenic drive, additional oncogenic events play a relevant role in lymphoma growth and progression to the point at which the lymphoproliferative process may eventually become independent of antigenic stimulation. Recent studies on MALT lymphomas have in fact demonstrated genetic alterations affecting the NF-κB) pathway, a major signaling pathway involved in many cancers. This review aims to present marginal zone lymphoma as an example of the close pathogenetic link between chronic inflammation and tumor development, with particular attention to the role of infectious agents and the integration of these observations into everyday clinical practice.

Abstract
The link between chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and a subset of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas (B-NHL) is strongly supported by epidemiological studies. Evidence demonstrating complete regression of lymphoma after antiviral treatments suggests possible chronic antigenic stimulation for the origin of B-NHL and provides evidence for a virus-mediated lymphomagenesis. B-NHL is a heterogeneous group of lymphomas with varied clinical presentation and may be indolent or aggressive. The optimal management of HCV related B-NHL is not clear. Antiviral treatment may be sufficient for low-grade lymphomas, but chemotherapy is necessary in patients with high grade lymphomas. Interferon (IFN)-based antiviral treatment regimens for HCV infection are limited by poor tolerance and suboptimal antiviral response. Recently approved novel direct acting antiviral (DAA) drugs are highly effective and safe. This has opened a new era for the treatment of HCV related B-NHL alone or in conjunction with chemotherapy. Treatment of HCV associated B-NHL should be performed in an interdisciplinary approach in close consultation with hematologist and hepatologist. In this review, we summarize data regarding clinical features and epidemiology of B-NHL and discuss novel therapeutic approaches, including DAAs, that may prove to be effective in the treatment of HCV associated lymphomas.

Abstract
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been recognized to be both a hepato- and lymphotropic virus. HCV lymphotropism represents an essential detail in the pathogenesis of virus-related autoimmune and lymphoproliferative disorders, ranging from clonal expansion of B-cells with organ and non-organ-specific autoantibody production up to overt non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma along a continuous step-by-step model of B-cell lymphomagenesis, where the intermediated mixed cryoglobulinemia could be considered as a stage of suppressible antigen-driven lymphoproliferation. The HCV long-lasting extrahepatic replicative state generates an abnormal systemic immunological response, including rheumatoid factor (RF) and cryo- and non-cryoprecipitable immune complexes, as well as clinical manifestations, comprising dermatitis, polyarthralgias and arthritis, pulmonary disease, aplastic anemia, glomerulonephritis and vasculitis. The mechanism of these extra-hepatic disorders is thought of as linked to immune complex disease, but their pathogenesis is poorly clarified. Immune-suppressive treatment could induce high-level hepatitis C viremia and impair hepatic disease. We report a female patient, whose chronic HCV-related liver cirrhosis with associated explosive, but oligosymptomatic lymphoproliferative immune response, i.e., RF beyond three thousand times the upper of normal range (unr), type II cryoglobulinemia with cryocrit 40% and monoclonal gammopathy IgM-k, has been successfully and safely treated by long-lasting (sixty-six months) combined antiviral therapy (pegylated interferon alfa and ribavirin), at moderate and tapering dose regimen, prolonged for nearly 24 months after the first viral suppression. At the last follow-up (fifty-one months), the patient was showing very-long term antiviral response, progressive decline of secondary immune activation and absence of significant side-effects. Further research is required to fully verify the real impact on therapeutic choice/regimen.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Chronic liver disease mediated by activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) leads to liver fibrosis. Here, we postulated that the immune regulatory properties of HSCs might promote the profibrogenic activity of B cells. Fibrosis is completely attenuated in carbon tetrachloride-treated, B cell-deficient µMT mice, showing that B cells are required. The retinoic acid produced by HSCs augmented B-cell survival, plasma cell marker CD138 expression, and immunoglobulin G production. These activities were reversed following addition of the retinoic acid inhibitor LE540. Transcriptional profiling of fibrotic liver B cells revealed increased expression of genes related to activation of nuclear factor κ light chain enhancer of activated B cells, proinflammatory cytokine production, and CD40 signaling, suggesting that these B cells are activated and may be acting as inflammatory cells. Biological validation experiments also revealed increased activation (CD44 and CD86 expression), constitutive immunoglobulin G production, and secretion of the proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and macrophage inflammatory protein-1α. Likewise, targeted deletion of B-cell-intrinsic myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 signaling, an innate adaptor with involvement in retinoic acid signaling, resulted in reduced infiltration of migratory CD11c(+) dendritic cells and Ly6C(++) monocytes and, hence, reduced liver pathology. CONCLUSION Liver fibrosis occurs through a mechanism of HSC-mediated augmentation of innate B-cell activity. These findings highlight B cells as important "first responders" of the intrahepatic immune environment.

Abstract
Advances in understanding of the immune microenvironment have highlighted the role of immunosuppressive T cell, myeloid, dendritic and monocytic sub-populations in inhibition of the anti-tumor immune response. The role of B cells in modulating the immune response to solid tumors as well as lymphoid malignancies is less well understood. Murine models of autoimmune disease have defined B regulatory cell (Breg) subsets with immune suppressive activity, including B cell subsets that express IL-10, and transforming growth factor-β, which can facilitate T regulatory cell recruitment and expansion. Multiple murine tumor models point to the existence of similar immune suppressive B cell sub-populations that can migrate into tumor deposits and acquire an immune suppressive phenotype, which then leads to attenuation of the local anti-tumor immune response. Other murine models of viral or chemically induced skin carcinogenesis have identified a pivotal role for B cells in promoting inflammation and carcinogenesis. While many human solid tumors demonstrate significant B cell infiltration and/or tertiary lymphoid structure formation, the functional properties of tumor-infiltrating B cells and their effects on immunity are poorly understood. Recent successes in early Phase I/II trials using anti-checkpoint inhibitor antibodies such as nivolumab or pidilizumab directed against PD-1 in the setting of Hodgkin's and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas validate the therapeutic utility of reversing B cell-mediated immune suppression. Further studies to define Breg subsets, and mechanisms of suppression, may provide new avenues for modulation of the immune response and meaningful therapeutic intervention in both lymphoid and solid tumors.

Abstract
It is known that even the adaptive components of the immune system are based on genetic traits common to all individuals, and that diversity is shaped by the lifelong contacts with different non-self antigens, including those found on infectious pathogens. Besides the individual differences, some of these common traits may be more prone to react against a given antigen, and this may be exploited by the infectious pathogens. Indeed, viral infections can deregulate immune response by subverting antibody (Ab) gene usage, leading to the overexpression of specific Ab subfamilies. This overexpression often results in a protective antiviral response but, in some cases, also correlates with a higher likelihood of developing humoral autoimmune disorders. These aspects of virus-induced autoimmunity have never been thoroughly reviewed, and this is the main purpose of this review. An accurate examination of virus specific Ab subfamilies elicited during infections may help further characterize the complex interplay between viruses and the humoral immune response, and be useful in the design of future monoclonal antibody (mAb)-based anti-infective prophylactic and therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Marginal zone lymphomas (MZL) represent around 8 % of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. During the last decades a number of studies have addressed the mechanisms underlying the disease development. Extranodal MZL lymphoma usually arises in mucosal sites where lymphocytes are not normally present from a background of either autoimmune processes, such as Hashimoto thyroiditis or Sjögren syndrome or chronic infectious conditions. In the context of a persistent antigenic stimulation, successive genetic abnormalities can progressively hit a B-cell clone among the reactive B-cells of the chronic inflammatory tissue and give rise to a MALT lymphoma. The best evidence of an etiopathogenetic link is available for the association between Helicobacter pylori-positive gastritis and gastric MALT lymphoma. Indeed, a successful eradication of this micro-organism with antibiotics can be followed by gastric MALT lymphoma regression in more than 2/3 of cases. Other microbial agents have been implicated in the pathogenesis of MZL arising in the skin (Borrelia burgdorferi), in the ocular adnexa (Chlamydophila psittaci), and in the small intestine (Campylobacter jejuni). The prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) has also been reported higher in MZL patients (particularly of the splenic type) than in the control population, suggesting a possible causative role of the virus. In non-gastric MALT lymphoma and in splenic MZL the role of the antimicrobial therapy is, however, less clear. This review summarizes the recent advances in Marginal Zone Lymphomas, addressing the critical points in their diagnosis, staging and clinical management.

Abstract
Epidemiological studies have demonstrated an increased risk of developing B-cell lymphomas in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, the strength of the association shows great geographic discrepancies, with higher relative risk in countries with high HCV prevalence. It remains unclear whether additional environmental and genetic factors are involved or if the international variability is simply a consequence of the variable infection prevalence. Therefore, a causal relationship remains controversial. Other confounding factors may affect the comparability of the different studies, including the method of HCV assessment, the selection of normal controls, the lymphoma classification used, and the year of publication. The most convincing proof is the observation, mainly limited to some indolent subtypes, of B-cell lymphoma regressions after HCV eradication with IFN and ribavirin. However, the molecular mechanisms of the HCV-induced lymphomagenesis are mainly hypothetical. According to the model considered to be most plausible, lymphoma growth is a consequence of the continuous antigenic stimulation of the B-cell immunologic response induced by the chronic viral infection. This review summarizes the current epidemiological and biological evidence of a role of HCV in lymphomagenesis, describing the putative mechanisms for a causative relationship. The clinical characteristics and management difficulties of the HCV-associated lymphomas are also discussed. HCV treatment with IFN cannot be given safely in concomitance with cytotoxic lymphoma treatment because of hematological and liver toxicity. However, novel and better tolerated antiviral regimens are under development and will hopefully make the treatment of both lymphoma and hepatitis easier in the future.

Abstract
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, that affects 3% of world's population, is associated with several hematological manifestations mainly benign cytopenias, coagulopathy and lymphoproliferative diseases. Immune or non-immune-mediated thrombocytopenia is a major challenge in chronic HCV infected patients especially in the setting of an advanced liver disease, with average prevalence of nearly 24%. Although several treatment modalities such as steroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, splenectomy and immunosuppresants have been tried with some success, their efficacy is not impressive and can result in an increase in viral load or other thrombotic complications. Even though a recent phase 2 study has shown promising role of a platelet growth factor, eltrombopag, in boosting platelets counts prior to antiviral treatment, its use in pre-operative setting had unexpected complications. Unlike thrombocytopenia, anemia and neutropenia are more frequently seen in treated patients and are often the result of antiviral therapy. HCV infection also pre-disposes to lymphoproliferative diseases, mainly non-Hodkings lymphomas, likely as a result of chronic antigenic stimulation and mutation of several genes involved in carcinogenesis. Understanding of the role of HCV infection in these conditions has therapeutic implications. Whereas antiviral therapy has shown therapeutic role in HCV-associated indolent lymphomas, monitoring of hepatic function and viral load is important in the management of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in HCV-infected patients. Although our knowledge about the HCV infection and hematological manifestations has substantially grown in last few decades, further studies are important to advance our therapeutic approach.

Abstract
The association between hepatitis C virus and certain B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas, such as marginal zone lymphomas, is supported by epidemiological studies. The exact pathogenetic mechanism is still unknown but both chronic antigenic stimulation and viral lymphotropism may contribute to the evolution of the malignant clone. Furthermore, the hematologic response following hepatitis C antiviral treatment suggests that the virus may have an etiologic role. Interferon and ribavirin based treatment proved to be successful in small case series of hepatitis C virus associated splenic lymphoma with villous lymphocytes, therefore, it is suggested that antiviral treatment could be an alternative to chemo-immunotherapy. In the near future new more potent direct acting antivirals will make interferon free treatments possible. It is still an open question whether these new short-course regimens are also effective in the treatment of associated lymphomas and what is the importance of the lymphoid reservoir in eliminating HCV.

Abstract
Chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection remains an important health problem, which is associated with deleterious consequences in kidney transplant recipients. Besides hepatic complications, several extrahepatic complications contribute to reduced patient and allograft survival in HCV-infected kidney recipients. However, HCV infection should not be considered as a contraindication for kidney transplantation because patient survival is better with transplantation than on dialysis. Treatment of HCV infection is currently interferon-alpha (IFN-α) based, which has been associated with higher renal allograft rejection rates. Therefore, antiviral treatment before transplantation is preferable. As in the nontransplant setting, IFN-free treatment regimens, because of their greater efficacy and reduced toxicity, currently represent promising and attractive therapeutic options after kidney transplantation as well. However, clinical trials will be required to closely evaluate these regimens in kidney recipients. There is also a need for prospective controlled studies to determine the optimal immunosuppressive regimens after transplantation in HCV-infected recipients. Combined kidney and liver transplantation is required in patients with advanced liver cirrhosis. However, in patients with cleared HCV infection and early cirrhosis without portal hypertension, kidney transplantation alone may be considered. There is some agreement about the use of HCV-positive donors in HCV-infected recipients, although data regarding posttransplant survival rates are controversial.

Abstract
Background. Recent literature has associated hepatitis C virus with the development of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Hepatitis C virus infection appears to promote lymphoproliferation, providing a plausible mechanism for a causative association; however, despite prior reports of patients with comorbid hepatitis C infection and Waldenström macroglobulinemia, the literature is in disagreement regarding whether there exists an association between these two conditions. Case Presentation. This case report describes a 57-year-old African-American male with chronic hepatitis C infection and cryoglobulinemia who presented with several episodes of transient confusion and paralysis and was found to have symptomatic hyperviscosity. The recognition of his condition was facilitated by characteristic findings on ophthalmologic examination. He was subsequently diagnosed with Waldenström macroglobulinemia on bone marrow biopsy. Conclusions. An up to date, comprehensive review of the literature suggests an association between hepatitis C and Waldenström macroglobulinemia. Data on optimal treatment of patients with comorbid hepatitis C infection and Waldenström macroglobulinemia is limited. We have provided a comprehensive review of previously explored treatment options to guide management of other similar patients. Our patient has since been treated with repeated plasmapheresis with a plan to pursue antiviral therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatitis C viral infection is a significant public health problem; 170 million persons are infected worldwide and the prevalence in the southern part of the United States exceeds two percent. Extrahepatic manifestations of hepatitis C viral infection are common; notably, 15-20% of patients will develop cutaneous manifestations of their disease. There are numerous dermatologic diseases associated with hepatitis C infection, including lichen planus, leukocytoclasticvasculitis, and porphyria cutaneatarda. MAIN OBSERVATION Recently, epidemiological studies have also demonstrated an association between hepatitis C infection and the development of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, especially marginal zone B-cell lymphoma. Herein we report the unusual case of a systemic marginal zone lymphoma in a patient with hepatitis C infection presenting clinically as localized lipoatrophy. CONCLUSIONS Lipoatrophy can be a rare and diagnostically challenging presentation of secondary cutaneous marginal zone B-cell lymphoma. The importance of early recognition and detection cannot be over emphasized, as new and effective anti-viral treatments can lead to lymphoma regression in up to 75% of patients. To our knowledge, this is the first case of hepatitis C viral infection associated marginal zone lymphoma to present as localized lipoatrophy.

Abstract
Chronic antigen-stimulation has been recurrently involved in the earlier stages of monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and other B-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disorders. The expansion of two or more B-cell clones has frequently been reported in individuals with these conditions; potentially, such coexisting clones have a greater probability of interaction with common immunological determinants. Here, we analyzed the B-cell receptor repertoire and molecular profile, as well as the phenotypic, cytogenetic and hematologic features, of 228 chronic lymphocytic leukemia-like and non-chronic lymphocytic leukemia-like clones comparing multiclonal (n=85 clones from 41 cases) versus monoclonal (n=143 clones) monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and other B-cell chronic lymphoproliferative disorders. The B-cell receptor of B-cell clones from multiclonal cases showed a slightly higher degree of HCDR3 homology than B-cell clones from mono clonal cases, in association with unique hematologic (e.g. lower B-lymphocyte counts) and cytogenetic (e.g. lower frequency of cytogenetically altered clones) features usually related to earlier stages of the disease. Moreover, a subgroup of coexisting B-cell clones from individual multiclonal cases which were found to be phylogenetically related showed unique molecular and cytogenetic features: they more frequently shared IGHV3 gene usage, shorter HCDR3 sequences with a greater proportion of IGHV mutations and del(13q14.3), than other unrelated B-cell clones. These results would support the antigen-driven nature of such multiclonal B-cell expansions, with potential involvement of multiple antigens/epitopes.

Abstract
Abstract Genetic and environmental factors are involved in the pathogenesis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The present study aimed to investigate the association between cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) genetic polymorphism, hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and B-cell NHL risk in Egypt. Genotyping of CTLA-4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay for 181 adult patients with B-NHL and 200 controls. Our study revealed that CTLA-4 + 49 A/G polymorphism conferred increased risk of B-NHL (odds ratio [OR] = 1.7, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.36-2.565). The prevalence of HCV infection in individuals harboring the mutant genotype + 49 A/G and - 318 C/T SNPs was higher in patients with B-NHL and was associated with increased risk of B-NHL (OR = 2.79, 95% CI = 1.24-6.93 for + 49 A/G and OR = 3.9, 95% CI = 1.01-15.98 for - 318 C/T). In conclusion, some SNPs of CTLA-4 are genetic risk factors for B-NHL. Moreover, this study identified an association of CTLA-4 + 49 A/G and - 318 C/T promoter polymorphisms with HCV infection.
