HODGKIN LYMPHOMA TREATMENT REGIMENS (Part 1 of 2)
HODGKIN LYMPHOMA TREATMENT REGIMENS (Part 1 of 2) The selection, dosing, and administration of anticancer agents and the management of associated toxicities are complex. Drug dose modifications and schedule and initiation of supportive care interventions are often necessary because of expected toxicities and because of individual patient variability, prior treatment, and comorbidities. Thus, the optimal delivery of anticancer agents requires a healthcare delivery team experienced in the use of such agents and the management of associated toxicities in patients with cancer. The cancer treatment regimens below may include both FDA-approved and unapproved uses/regimens and are provided as references only to the latest treatment strategies. Clinicians must choose and verify treatment options based on the individual patient. NOTE: GREY SHADED BOXES CONTAIN UPDATED REGIMENS. REGIMEN DOSING Classical Hodgkin Lymphoma—First-Line Treatment General treatment note: Routine use of growth factors is not recommended. Leukopenia is not a factor for treatment delay or dose reduction (except for escalated BEACOPP).1 CR=complete response IPS=International Prognostic Score PD=progressive disease PFTs=pulmonary function tests PR=partial response RT=radiation therapy SD=stable disease Stage IA, IIA Favorable ABVD (doxorubicin [Adriamycin] Days 1 and 15: Doxorubicin 25mg/m2 IV + bleomycin 10mg/m2 IV + vinblastine + bleomycin + vinblastine + 6mg/m2 IV + dacarbazine 375mg/m2 IV. dacarbazine [DTIC-Dome]) + Repeat cycle every 4 weeks for 2–4 cycles. involved-field radiotherapy (IFRT)1–4 Follow with IFRT after completion of chemotherapy.

(Rituxan®), Rituximab-Abbs (Truxima®), Rituximab-Pvvr (Ruxience®) Prior Authorization Drug Coverage Policy
1 Rituximab Products: Rituximab (Rituxan®), Rituximab-abbs (Truxima®), Rituximab-pvvr (Ruxience®) Prior Authorization Drug Coverage Policy Effective Date: 2/1/2021 Revision Date: n/a Review Date: 7/2/20 Lines of Business: Commercial Policy type: Prior Authorization This Drug Coverage Policy provides parameters for the coverage of rituximab (Rituxan®), rituximab-abbs (Truxima®), and rituximab-pvvr (Ruxience®). Consideration of medically necessary indications are based upon U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indications, recommended uses within the Centers of Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) five recognized compendia, including the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Drugs & Biologics Compendium (Category 1 or 2A recommendations), and peer-reviewed scientific literature eligible for coverage according to the CMS, Medicare Benefit Policy Manual, Chapter 15, section 50.4.5 titled, “Off- Label Use of Anti-Cancer Drugs and Biologics.” This policy evaluates whether the drug therapy is proven to be effective based on published evidence-based medicine. Drug Description1-3 Rituximab (Rituxan®), rituximab-abbs (Truxima®), and rituximab-pvvr (Ruxience®) are monoclonal antibodies that target the CD20 antigen expressed on the surface of pre-B and mature B- lymphocytes. Upon binding to cluster of differentiation (CD) 20, rituximab mediates B-cell lysis. Possible mechanisms of cell lysis include complement dependent cytotoxicity (CDC) and antibody dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). B cells are believed to play a role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and associated chronic synovitis. In this setting, B cells may be acting at multiple sites in the autoimmune/inflammatory process, including through production of rheumatoid factor (RF) and other autoantibodies, antigen presentation, T-cell activation, and/or proinflammatory cytokine production. -

Helpline (freephone) 0808 808 5555 [email protected] www.lymphoma-action.org.uk Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) This page is about anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL), a type of T-cell lymphoma. On this page What is ALCL? Who gets it? Symptoms Treatment Relapsed and refractory ALCL Research and targeted treatments We have separate information about the topics in bold font. Please get in touch if you’d like to request copies or if you would like further information about any aspect of lymphoma. Phone 0808 808 5555 or email [email protected]. What is ALCL? Anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a type of T-cell lymphoma – a non-Hodgkin lymphoma that develops from white blood cells called T cells. Under a microscope, the cancerous cells in ALCL look large, undeveloped and very abnormal (‘anaplastic’). There are four main types of ALCL. They have complicated names based on their features and the types of proteins they make: • ALK-positive ALCL (also known as ALK+ ALCL) is the most common type. In ALK-positive ALCL, the abnormal T cells have a genetic change (mutation) that means they make a protein called ‘anaplastic lymphoma kinase’ (ALK). In other words, they test positive for ALK. ALK-positive ALCL is a fast-growing (high-grade) lymphoma. Page 1 of 6 © Lymphoma Action • ALK-negative ALCL (also known as ALK- ALCL) is a high-grade lymphoma that accounts for around 3 in every 10 cases of ALCL. The abnormal T cells do not make the ALK protein – they test negative for ALK. -

Indolent Lymphoma in Dogs
Indolent Lymphoma in Dogs You diagnose indolent lymphoma in a dog. What is indolent lymphoma? What is the prognosis and what are the treatment options? What is indolent lymphoma? Indolent lymphoma (also called small-cell or low-grade lymphoma) is an uncommon form of lymphoma in dogs, representing around 5-29%1 of all canine lymphoma. The subtypes described include follicular lymphoma, marginal zone lymphoma, mantle zone and T-zone lymphoma, which are all derived from B-cells (except for T-zone lymphoma, which is T-cell in origin).2,3 In general, indolent lymphoma is characterised by small lymphocytes, a low mitotic index and slow clinical course of progression. Most dogs with indolent lymphoma present with generalised lymphadenopathy. Some dogs present with solitary lymph node involvement or only splenic involvement. Few dogs present with clinical signs, and if clinical signs are present (including lymphadenopathy), it can wax and wane and is usually mild. T-zone lymphoma (TZL) T-zone lymphoma is the most common subtype in canine indolent lymphoma representing around 60% of dogs with indolent lymphoma.1 TZL is characterised by unique loss of CD45 expression, T-zone distinct histologic pattern and small clear cell cytomorphology.4-6 This subtype is associated with the longest median survival times in dogs with indolent lymphoma.1 Middle-aged to older dogs are primarily affected (median age 8 to 10 years).5 Common breeds affected include Golden retriever (40-50%)6,7 and Shih Tzu.5 There is no apparent gender predilection. Dogs typically present with generalised peripheral lymphadenopathy (that may wax and wane) and/or lymphocytosis with no clinical signs of illness (clinical substage a, 80%).5 If clinical signs are present, it is usually non-specific and mild.
