==Overview==
The early stage of the Hodgkin's lymphoma is associated with the most favorable prognosis. The 5-year survival rate of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma varies with the stage of the disease.
Hodgkin's lymphoma has a [[Bimodal distribution|bimodal age distribution]] and both children and adult may be affected. The early peak occurs in the middle-to-late 20's and the second peak after the age of 50. [[Treatment Planning|Treatment]] outcomes of Hodgkin’s lymphoma are excellent and five-year [[Survival rate|survival rates]] are more than 80%. Owing to modern therapies, the natural history of untreated Hodgkin’s lymphoma is actually difficult to determine. Survivors are at risk for relapse, second primary malignancies, cardiovascular [[Complication (medicine)|complications]] and other treatment-related [[Toxicity|toxicities]]. [[Prognosis]] is based on the stage of the disease and other prognostic factors. The early stage of the Hodgkin's lymphoma is associated with the most favorable prognosis and the 5-year survival rate of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma varies with the stage of the disease.
 
== Natural History ==
* Hodgkin's lymphoma has a [[Bimodal distribution|bimodal age distribution]] and both children and adult may be affected. The most common symptom of classic Hodgkin's lymphoma includes painless localized peripheral lymphadenopathy.
* Owing to modern therapies, the natural history of untreated Hodgkin’s lymphoma is actually difficult to determine.
 
* If left untreated, Hodgkin's lymphoma develop complications depend on site and size of mass, including [[Breathing|breathing problem]], [[hypoxemia]], [[chest pain]], significant [[weight loss]], and a [[tracheoesophageal fistula]] and eventually significant decrease in the overall survival.<ref name="Greco1974">{{cite journal|last1=Greco|first1=Ralph S.|title=Hodgkin Disease in Connecticut From 1935 to 1962|journal=Archives of Internal Medicine|volume=134|issue=6|year=1974|pages=1039|issn=0003-9926|doi=10.1001/archinte.1974.00320240073007}}</ref>
 
== Complications ==
* The main complications of Hodgkin lymphoma are due to side effects of chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, table below provides these general side effects:

*Stage I and II Hodgkin's lymphoma are divided into favourable and unfavourable groups based on prognostic factors.
* Hodgkin lymphoma is considered as curable cancer, with stages I and II considered early stage. In addition, other [[clinical]] [[Features (pattern recognition)|features]], such as age, absence or presence of [[B symptoms]], number of involved sites, and size of [[lymphadenopathy]] are used by experts to stratify Hodgkin's lymphoma into favorable and unfavorable subtypes.
* Early favourable Hodgkin's lymphoma
:* Early favourable Hodgkin's lymphoma means that no factors listed below are present
* Early unfavourable Hodgkin's lymphoma
:* Early unfavourable Hodgkin's lymphoma means that one or more of the following factors are present:
::* Bulky disease
:::* Larger than one-third the width of the chest
:::* At least 10 cm in its greatest dimension in areas other than the chest
::* Presence of extranodal disease (in areas other than the lymph nodes)
::* 3 or more areas of lymph node involvement
::* [[Erythrocyte sedimentation rate]] (ESR) of 50 mm/h or higher
::* Mixed cellularity Hodgkin's lymphoma
::* Presence of [[B symptoms]]
:::* Unexplained [[fever]] over 38°C
:::* Drenching [[night sweats]]
:::* Unexplained [[weight loss]] – loss of more than 10% of original body weight within the last 6 months

Overview

Hodgkin's lymphoma has a bimodal age distribution and both children and adult may be affected. The early peak occurs in the middle-to-late 20's and the second peak after the age of 50. Treatment outcomes of Hodgkin’s lymphoma are excellent and five-year survival rates are more than 80%. Owing to modern therapies, the natural history of untreated Hodgkin’s lymphoma is actually difficult to determine. Survivors are at risk for relapse, second primary malignancies, cardiovascular complications and other treatment-related toxicities. Prognosis is based on the stage of the disease and other prognostic factors. The early stage of the Hodgkin's lymphoma is associated with the most favorable prognosis and the 5-year survival rate of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma varies with the stage of the disease.

Natural History

  • Hodgkin's lymphoma has a bimodal age distribution and both children and adult may be affected. The most common symptom of classic Hodgkin's lymphoma includes painless localized peripheral lymphadenopathy.
  • Owing to modern therapies, the natural history of untreated Hodgkin’s lymphoma is actually difficult to determine.

Complications

  • The main complications of Hodgkin lymphoma are due to side effects of chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy, table below provides these general side effects:
Complications of Medical Therapy
Complications of Chemotherapy[2] Complications of Radiotherapy[2]
Skin reactions Skin changes
Nausea and vomiting Nausea and vomiting
Sore throat and painful swallowing Sore mouth
Taste changes Loss of appetite
Fatigue Fatigue
Diarrhea Diarrhea
Bone marrow suppression Bone marrow suppression
Dental cavities Constipation
Thyroid problems Hair loss
Fertility problems Cystitis
Heart and lung problems Muscle and joint pain
Second cancers Second cancers
Pain at the injection site
Inflammation of the vein
Allergic reactions
Organ damage
Fluid retention
  • The relative risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma increases among Hodgkin lymphoma survivors, and this risk increases with follow-up time. [7] [8]

Prognosis

Prognostic factors for early (Stage I and II) Hodgkin's lymphoma[9]

  • Hodgkin lymphoma is considered as curable cancer, with stages I and II considered early stage. In addition, other clinical features, such as age, absence or presence of B symptoms, number of involved sites, and size of lymphadenopathy are used by experts to stratify Hodgkin's lymphoma into favorable and unfavorable subtypes.
The definitions of favorable disease are proposed by the European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) are following:[10]
  • Under 50 years old
  • No large mediastinal adenopathy
  • ESR of less than 50 mm/h and no B symptoms (or an ESR of less than 30 mm/h with B symptoms)
  • Disease limited to three or fewer regions of involvement
The criteria are used by the German Hodgkin Study Group (GHSG) for definitions of favorable disease include:[11]
  • No more than two sites of involvement
  • No extranodal extension
  • No mediastinal mass measuring one-third the maximum thoracic diameter or greater
  • ESR less than 50 mm/h (less than 30 mm/h if B symptoms present)

Prognostic factors in advanced (stage III and IV) Hodgkin's lymphoma

The International Prognostic Score (IPS) is the most commonly used risk stratification system for patients with advanced-stage disease (stages III and IV), which uses the following seven potential unfavorable features at diagnosis: [12][13]

Each variable is assigned 1 point and the total score is inversely related to 5-year survival rates as follows:

  1. No point : 84 percent
  2. One points : 77 percent
  3. Two points : 67 percent
  4. Three points : 60 percent
  5. Four points : 51 percent
  6. Five or more points : 42 percent

5-Year Survival

  • Between 2004 and 2010, the 5-year relative survival of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma was 87.7%.[14]
  • When stratified by age, the 5-year relative survival of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma was 90.5% and 52.8% for patients <65 and ≥ 65 years of age respectively.[14]
  • The survival of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma varies with the stage of the disease. Shown below is a table depicting the 5-year relative survival by the stage of Hodgkin's lymphoma:[14]
Stage 5-year relative survival (%), (2004-2010)
All stages 85.3%
Localized 90.8%
Regional 92.1%
Distant 76.2%
Unstaged 80.7%
  • The survival of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma also varies with the subtype of Hodgkin's lymphoma. Shown below is the 5-year relative survival by the subtype of Hodgkin's lymphoma:[14]
    • Classical Hodgkin's lymphoma: 84.8%
      • Lymphocyte-rich: 87.1%
      • Mixed cellularity: 80%
      • Lymphocyte-depleted: 56.6%
      • Nodular sclerosis: 89.4%
      • Classical Hodgkin's lymphoma not otherwise specified: 75.2%
    • Nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin's lymphoma: 95.3%
  • Shown below is an image depicting the 5-year conditional relative survival (probability of surviving in the next 5-years given the cohort has already survived 0, 1, 3 years) between 1998 and 2010 of Hodgkin's lymphoma by stage at diagnosis according to SEER. These graphs are adapted from SEER: The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program of the National Cancer Institute.[14]
