The immunophenotype and genotype of Reed-Sternberg cells have been analysed by recent techniques, showing that, in many cases, Reed-Sternberg cells are of lymphoid origin. The cause of Hodgkin’s lymphoma remains unknown. The purpose of initial staging is to define the limit of detectable disease and prognostic factors for treatment decision. Radiation therapy alone is no longer recommended to treat clinical stages I and II without risk factors. Front-line chemotherapy, with ABVD regimen as gold standard, is indicated for all clinical stages with or without risk factors. Combined modality treatment with radiation therapy delivered only to initially involved areas, is the treatment of choice for localized stages with supradiaphragmatic disease. Chemotherapy alone, with doxorubicin-containing regimen given for 8 cycles, has been defined as standard treatment for advanced stages, provided a remission is achieved after initial chemotherapy (4-6 cycles). Recent trials in Europe have contributed to a better definition of the role of radiation therapy in specific indications. Restaging after initial chemotherapy is of importance to evaluate the degree of response and may be used to determine whether more or different treatment is indicated. The impact of new imaging techniques on medical decision making needs to be prospectively evaluated. High-dose chemotherapy with hematopoietic stem cell transplant may improve the prognosis of relapsed patients. Treatment of patients in prospective trials is highly commendable. Follow-up evaluation is aimed at identifying long-term toxicity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100425,"journal":{"name":"EMC - Hématologie","volume":"1 4","pages":"Pages 115-134"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.emch.2004.08.001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81046473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This clinicopathological entity now appears to be a biological and therapeutic model for the understanding and treatment of hematological malignancies. The lymphomogenesis of MCL could be explained by a series of genetic abnormalities which occur at different steps of the disease: (1) mutation and/or loss of the <em>ATM</em> gene in centrocytic cells of the follicle mantle of lymph nodes, leading to the loss of ATM function, particularly involved during the <em>(D) J</em> recombination process; (2) a (11 ; 14) (q13 ; q32) translocation which induces a constitutive Bcl-1/PRAD1/CCND1 expression, responsible for cell cycle activation of centrocytic cells characteristic of typical MCL; and (3) secondary additional chromosomal aberrations, such as a <em>p53</em> mutation, observed in blastic transformation of MCL. Despite the evaluation of a number of treatment modalities, the optimal management of MCL has not been defined yet; (1) conventional and intensified chemotherapy and monoclonal anti-CD20 antibody therapy appear to be effective for the improvement of response rates and event-free or overall survival; (2) combinations of different treatment modalities must be tested to modify the natural dismal outcome of the disease; (3) innovative approaches should be developed.

The most studied mechanism is the MDR (multi-drug resistance) phenotype, because it is related to major cytostatic drugs like anthracyclins, vinca-alkaloïds and epipodophyllotoxins. MDR is due to the presence of transporter proteins (ABC proteins) that are able to expel drugs of natural origin (xenobiotics). The presence of P-gp, the most studied protein of this family, is of value for predicting drug resistance in acute myeloid leukemia. This explains the use of “modulators” of P-gp like quinine, cyclosporine or PSC833 in this disease. A benefit for the patient is observed only in case of functional P-gp present on the leukemic cells. The role of the other ABC pumps (MRPs, BCRP) is not clearly demonstrated in hematological malignancies. Another important mechanism of resistance is the inhibition of drug-induced apoptosis, due to modification of p53 or proteins of the bcl-2 family. Enzyme modifications are also important in resistance to nucleotide analogs like cytosine arabinoside, largely used in acute leukemia. The use of doses ten-fold higher than the standard dosing allows overcoming resistance to this drug.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100425,"journal":{"name":"EMC - Hématologie","volume":"1 3","pages":"Pages 59-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.emch.2004.06.002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82629702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
