  • Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Questions and Answers
    Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma Questions and Answers What is Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma? Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) is a cancer of the lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. When lymphocytes become cancerous (malignant), they multiply and become tumors. Lymphocytes are normally found in the blood stream and lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are found throughout the body and are identified by their location. They are a part of the body’s immune system, which includes the lymphatic system, spleen and lymphocytes. Some lymph nodes can be found just by feeling them in the neck, groin or under the arms. Some cannot be felt, but they can be seen on X-rays. NHL is the fifth most common cancer in the United States. Men are at slightly higher risk than women. It is more common in adults than children. The average age at diagnosis is 45 to 55 years. The cause of NHL remains unknown. What Are the Types and Symptoms of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma? There are more than 30 different types of NHL. The specific types of NHL are associated with different symptoms. Low-grade or indolent NHL is usually associated with painless swelling of lymph nodes (usually in the neck or over the collarbone), but patients are otherwise healthy. The swelling may go away for a while, but then return. If the low-grade NHL has spread outside of the lymph nodes, such as to the stomach, there may be discomfort in the affected area. Low-grade lymphomas grow slowly. Examples of low-grade NHLs include: Marginal zone lymphomas.

  • Understanding Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/ Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma
    Understanding Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia/ Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) are forms of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that arise from B lymphocytes. CLL and SLL are essentially the same disease, with the only difference being the location where the cancer primarily occurs. When most of the cancer cells are located in the bloodstream and the bone marrow, the disease is referred to as CLL, although the lymph nodes and spleen are often involved. When the cancer cells are located mostly in the lymph nodes and are less frequent in the blood, the disease is called SLL. Many patients with CLL/SLL do not have any obvious symptoms of the disease. Their doctors might detect the disease during routine blood tests and/or a physical examination. For others, the disease is detected when symptoms occur and the patient goes to the doctor because he or she is worried, uncomfortable, or does not feel well. CLL/SLL may cause different symptoms depending on the location of the tumor in the body, including fatigue (extreme tiredness), shortness of breath, anemia (low red blood cell count), bruising easily, night sweats, weight loss, frequent infections. Other symptoms can include a swollen abdomen and feeling full even after eating only a small amount. However, many patients with CLL/SLL will live for years without symptoms. TREATMENT OPTIONS • Chlorambucil (Leukeran) and obinutuzumab (Gazyva) • Venetoclax (Venclexta) and obinutuzumab (Gazyva) Treatment is based on the severity of associated symptoms Occasionally patients might also be treated with chemotherapy, as well as the rate of cancer growth.
