1 DIAGNOSIS INITIAL EVALUATION ESSENTIAL: Hematopathology review of all slides with at least one paraffin block representative of the tumor. Rebiopsy if consult material is nondiagnostic. FNA s are generally inadequate. Recommend core or excisional biopsy. Adequate immunophenotyping to establish diagnosis - Paraffin Panel: - CD3, CD10, CD20, CD45 (LCA), Ki-67, BCL2, BCL6, and TdT - Flow cytometry immunophenotyping (optional if paraffin IHC has been performed): kappa/lambda light chains, IgM, CD3, CD5, CD10, CD19, CD20, CD45, and TdT Molecular genetic analysis - For Burkitt lymphoma: FISH to detect MYC gene rearrangements - For Double-hit lymphoma: FISH to detect the BCL2 and BCL6 gene rearrangements OF USE IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES: FISH for BCL2 and BCL6 rearrangements In situ hybridization: EBER STRONGLY RECOMMENDED: FNA or core biopsy for tissue banking by protocol Perform gene mutation panel if available Physical exam: Performance status (ECOG) B symptoms (fever, sweats, weight loss) CBC with differential, albumin, AST, ALT, total bilirubin, alkaline phosphorus, serum calcium, uric acid, phosphate, magnesium, BUN, creatinine, LDH Screening for HIV1and 2, hepatitis B and C (HBcAb, HBaAg, HCVAb) Chest X-ray, PA and Lateral CT with contrast of neck, chest, abdomen and pelvis Echo or MUGA Lumbar Puncture with cytology evaluation Bilateral bone marrow biopsy with aspirate PET/CT Scan Useful in selected cases: UGI/barium enema/endoscopy MRI of brain with gadolinium or CT of brain Pregnancy test in women of childbearing potential Discussion of fertility issues and sperm banking See Page 2 for Clinical Presentations and Primary Treatment
2 INDUCTION THERAPY Burkitt Lymphoma 1 Dose adjusted Rituximab and EPOCH (Etoposide, Prednisone, Vincristine, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin) with intrathecal chemotherapy and GCSF 2 Rituxmab and HCVAD (Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Doxorubicin, Dexamethasone) alternately with Rituximab and Methotrexate and Cytarabine with intrathecal chemotherapy and GCSF Rituximab and CODOX-M/ Rituximab and IVAC (Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, Doxorubicin, high-dose Methotrexate alternately with Ifosphamide, Etoposide, high-dose Cytarabine) with intrathecal chemotherapy and GCSF 2 Double- Hit or Triple- Hit Lymphoma 1 Regimens as above for Burkitt Lymphoma Consideration of consolidation in 1 st complete remission with high dose chemotherapy and Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) in selected patients continued on the next page 1 R-CHOP: Rituximab, Cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone is not adequate adequate therapy 2 GCSF: Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (Filgrastin or Pegfilgrastim) 5
3 RESPONSE EVALUATION 1 FOLLOW-UP Complete Response (CR) Recommend to continue: Routine follow-up and management with infectious disease specialists Routine cancer screening tests with primary cancer physician Year -2: Every 3-4 months Repeat CT s with contrast Years 3-5: Every 6 months Repeat CT s with contrast Year 5 and beyond Partial response (PR), Stable Disease, Progressive Disease and recurrence Consider non-overlapping chemotherapy option per DLBCL guidelines Consider high dose chemotherapy plus ASCT for patients who enter into second remission with good performance status and well controlled concomitant medical issues 1 By Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma( see suggested readings)
