    Extractions: Login IDEC Pharmaceuticals Corporation has announced the final results of two pivotal trials of Zevalin(TM) (Ibritumomab Tiuxetan), an investigational radioimmunotherapy, during oral presentations at the 42nd Annual Meeting of the American Society of Hematology (ASH). Thomas E. Witzig, M.D. of the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, delivered an oral presentation of a Phase III randomized, controlled study of 143 patients with relapsed or refractory low grade, follicular, or CD20-positive transformed B-cell non-Hodgkins lymphoma (NHL). He noted that the Zevalin combined with Rituxan arm of the study showed an overall response rate (ORR) of 80 percent, compared to the Rituxan(R) (Rituxumab) alone control arm, which showed an overall response rate of 56 percent. A treatment course for Zevalin includes a Rituxan infusion (250 mg/m.2) on day one, followed by infusions of Rituxan (250 mg/m2) and Zevalin (at a standard radiation dose of 0.4 mCi/kg of patient body weight) on day eight. A treatment course of the Rituxan control consisted of four weekly doses of 375 mg/m2 of Rituxan.

    Diffuse, Undifferentiated nonhodgkins lymphoma among Homosexual Males United States. A recent outbreak of Kaposi s sarcoma, Pneumocystis  
    http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/00001104.htm
    
    Extractions: A recent outbreak of Kaposi's sarcoma, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, and other opportunistic infections (KSOI) involving homosexual males and associated with an acquired cellular immunodeficiency syndrome has been described (1,2). While the pathogenesis of these disorders among homosexual males in San Francisco was being studied, 4 cases of diffuse, undifferentiated non-Hodgkins lymphoma (DUNHL) were diagnosed between March 1981 and January 1982. Because of the rarity of this malignancy and the potential relationship of these cases to the KSOI syndrome, they are reported here. Patient 1: A 28-year-old hospital clerk complained of back and shoulder pain starting in early March 1981. Within a few days he had swelling of the right eye and an unsteady gait, and he was hospitalized on March 21. "Shotty" peripheral lymphadenopathy was present. A biopsy of an orbital mass and an enlarged cervical lymph node disclosed DUNHL. A myelogram revealed a T4-T6 block by an extradural mass. Radiation and chemotherapy led to complete remission. In September 1981, another tumor in the spinal cord was treated with radiation. The ensuing remission was temporary, and the patient died with disseminated DUNHL on January 15, 1982. Patient 2: A 33-year-old nurse developed a tumor in his left lower jaw in October 1981. Penicillin was given for a suspected abscess, but the mass enlarged. A biopsy on November 24 disclosed DUNHL. Tumor cells contained surface IgM, kappa type, indicating a B-cell tumor. The tumor involved a left axillary lymph node, the retroperitoneum, the bone marrow, and the meninges. Generalized "reactive" lymphadenopathy and mild splenomegaly were present. Systemic and intrathecal chemotherapy led to temporary tumor regression; the patient relapsed and died in March 1982.

    Extractions: TREATMENT The treatment your child will receive consists of chemotherapy (drugs) and occasionally surgery. For B-NHL children are divided into 3 groups depending on how far the disease has spread. Group A This is used in children with very localised lymphoma and lasts about 6 weeks. Your child will receive 2 cycles of chemotherapy (COPAD), as an in-patient. The drug treatment is given in blocks, each lasting 5 days. Each block of treatment is given three weeks apart. COPAD = VINCRISTINE DOXORUBICIN injection once Group B If your child has a lymphoma which is in more than one place we will use this protocol, which consists of six blocks of treatment; the first two blocks of treatment are given close together (one week apart) but the other blocks are given every three weeks. The total length of treatment is about five months. Block 1 (COP) Vincristine, cyclophosphamide, prednisolone and methotrexate by lumbar puncture.

    http://www.gmhc.org/health/treatment/factsheets/lymph.html
    
    Extractions: NHL is the most common of all lymphomas that affects people with HIV. Lymphomas are cancerous tumors of the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is a part of the immune system that defends the body against disease. NHL occurs when the body's B-cells or T-cells (types of white blood cells) start growing and dividing abnormally causing tumors to develop. NHL is separated into two major categories: systemic lymphomas and primary central nervous system (CNS) lymphomas. Systemic lymphomas occur mostly in people with CD4 counts over 50. CNS lymphomas occur mostly in people with CD4 counts 50 and under and who have had other opportunistic infections. In people with HIV, NHL often develops outside the lymph nodes, including the liver, bone marrow, stomach, brain, mouth and anus.

    Extractions: Answer Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is a type of malignancy (cancer) that affects cells involved in the immune system and that mostly reside in the lymph nodes. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is not a single disease but a collection of numerous types of lymphoma with greatly divergent clinical presentations, prognoses, and treatments. The current classification scheme for these includes over 20 sorts. Given this broad spectrum of diseases under the general classification of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, a complete answer to your request for information about the significance of a recurrence is not possible. For those types of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma generally referred to as "indolent" (e.g., follicular small cell, low grade), recurrences are expected, and treatment is aimed at relief of symptoms rather than prolongation of life. In contrast, in diffuse B-cell lymphoma (an intermediate grade lymphoma), treatment aimed at cure is feasible. A number of new treatments have recently been developed for several different types of lymphoma and more are being investigated. In summary, the type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is very important to further discuss the likelihood of recurrence. Please see the link below.

Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation allows higher doses of chemotherapy drugs to be administered, which may result in the killing of more cancer cells. This study is designed to compare a standard chemotherapy regimen to an alternative regimen consisting of a shorter chemotherapy course combined with autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with stage II, stage III, or stage IV non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Chemotherapy drugs function in a variety of different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so that they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can locate tumor cells and either kill them using the host's immune system or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation allows higher doses of chemotherapy drugs to be administered, which may result in the killing of more cancer cells. This study has been designed to study the effectiveness of combining chemotherapy and rituximab with peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have mantle cell lymphoma.

It helps the body fight disease and infection. The lymphatic system includes a network of thin tubes that branch, like blood vessels, into tissues throughout the body. Lymphatic vessels carry lymph , a colorless, watery fluid that contains infection-fighting cells called lymphocytes . Along this network of vessels are small organs called lymph nodes . Clusters of lymph nodes are found in the underarms, groin, neck, chest, and abdomen. Other parts of the lymphatic system are the spleen thymus tonsils , and bone marrow .

    Extractions: Your body contains white blood cells called "lymphocytes" that help protect against disease and infection. When these cells become cancerous, the result is called a lymphoma. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is one of two main types of lymphoma. The other type is called Hodgkin's disease or Hodgkin's lymphoma. When lymphoma cells begin to multiply they may form a tumor, a clump of cancer cells. They can also spread to other areas of the body. Lymphomas are usually found in the lymph modes or bone marrow. There may be more than 20 types of NHL. Usually, NHL is divided into three types:
