Overview
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- B-cell lymphomas include both Hodgkin's lymphoma and most Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Historical landmarks of the discovery of Hodgkin's lymphoma include:[1]
- Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) was first discovered by Thomas Hodgkin, a British physician, in 1832. However, a prior description for HL was provided by Marcello Malpighi, an Italian physician, in 1666.
- In 1838, Richard Bright was the first to discover the association between spleen and HL.
- In 1865, Samuel Wilks honored Thomas Hodgkin by referring this disease as Hodgkin's lymphoma in his publication which he observed and described similar cases since 1856.
- Langhans and Greenfield first described HL's microscopic characteristics in 1872 and 1878, respectively.
- In 1898 and 1902, Carl Sternberg and Dorothy Reed, respectively, made important contributions to the microscopy of HL including the description of Reed-Sternberg (R-S) cells, which are the hallmark tumor cells of HL.
- In 1944, Hodgkin’s lymphoma was classified by Jackson and Parker into three subtypes: paragranuloma, granuloma, and sarcoma.[2]
- In 1966, Lukes and Butler proposed a new classification based on the predominant histopathologic type of the disease into six groups: lymphocytic and/or histiocytic, nodular; lymphocytic and/or histiocytic, diffuse; nodular sclerosis; mixed; diffuse fibrosis, and reticular. They also strengthened this classification by suggesting that there was a 'definite relationship between the histological findings, clinical stages, and survival'. In 1966, at the Rye symposium, those 6 types modified into 4 types as lymphocytic predominance (includes both previous types of lymphocytic and/or histiocytic, nodular; lymphocytic and/or histiocytic, diffuse), nodular sclerosis, mixed cellularity, and lymphocytic depletion (includes both previous types of diffuse fibrosis and reticular).[1][2][3]
- In 1994, the Revised European-American Lymphoma Classification proposed a new classification system and classified Hodgkin’s lymphoma into two main types: nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin’s lymphoma and classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma (includes lymphocyte predominant, nodular sclerosis, mixed cellularity, and lymphocyte depleted).[4]
- In 2001 and 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) classification provided a new subtype of classical Hodgkin lymphoma, lymphocyte-rich classical Hodgkin lymphoma, which replaced the previous type of lymphocytic predominance classical Hodgkin lymphoma. [5][6]
- In 2016, the latest revision of classification of Hodgkin lymphoma was made by World Health Organisation (WHO).[7]
- Historical landmarks of the discovery of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) include:[8]
- In 1864, Virchow, a German physician, had described the pathologic enlargement of lymph nodes as lymphosarcoma.
- In 1865, Cohnheim, a German-Jewish physician, had described the pathologic enlargement of lymph nodes and spleen as pseudoleukaemia.
- The term ‘malignant lymphoma’ was first coined by Billroth, a Prussian-born Austrian surgeon, in 1871.
- In 1956, Henry Rappaport provided the first organized classification of non-Hodgkin lymphomas, which was modified by the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, in 1966.
- Burkitt lymphoma (a subtype of NHL) was first discovered by Denis Parsons Burkitt, an Irish surgeon, in 1958, during his work in Africa.[9]
- In 1974, Lukes and Collins provided a new classification system of NHL according to the site of origin, state of transformation, and predominant cell of origin (B cell, T cell, or histiocyte).[8]
- Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) was first discovered by Banks, in 1992.[10]
- In 1994, the Revised European-American Classification of Lymphoid Neoplasms (REAL) classified non-Hodgkin's lymphoma according to the clinical features, immunology and genetic information.[4]
- In 2001, 2008, and 2016, World Health Organization (WHO) provided revised classifications of NHL, based on the REAL classification.[11][5][6][7]
Landmark Events in the Development of Treatment Strategies
- Landmark events in the development of treatment strategies for Hodgkin's lymphoma include:
- In 1832, treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) was first tried by Thomas Hodgkin. However, there was no improvement seen with this treatment according to the autopsy findings.[1]
- The first satisfactory treatment of HL was first time reported in 1894 using Fowler's solution, which was based on potassium arsenite.[1][12][13]
- In 1902, William A. Pusey, an American physician, used radiotherapy for the treatment of HL.[14]
- In the 1920s and 1950s, Gilbert and Peters, respectively, proposed the pattern of contiguous spread of lymph nodes in HL.[14]
- In the 1940s, nitrogen mustard therapy was announced as a new treatment option for HL by Goodman et al..[15]
- In 1966 and 1973, Peters and Kaplan, respectively, applied appropriate radiotherapy according to the patterns of spread.[14]
- The first combination chemotherapy for the treatment of HL, consisting of [[Mechlorethamine (injection)]|mechlorethamine hydrochloride]], vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone (MOPP regimen), was developed by National Cancer Institute (NCI), in 1964. This regimen provided increased survival of patients with HL. However, long-term side-effects such as infertility and second malignancies arised. [1]
- In 1981, a new combination chemotherapy for the treatment of HL, consisting of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (ABVD regimen), was developed with higher effectiveness and fewer side-effects.
- Landmark events in the development of treatment strategies for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) include:[16]
- In 1975, Devita et al. achieved a cure for diffuse large B cell lymphoma with C-MOPP regimen (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, prednisone, procarbazine).
- In 1976, McKelvey et al. proposed the CHOP regimen (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) for the treatment of intermediate and high-grade lymphomas such as diffuse large B cell lymphoma, follicular mixed and large cell lymphoma, and immunoblastic lymphomas.
- In 1990s, the combination of high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) proposed as an only potential curative therapy for patients with relapsed intermediate or high-grade non-Hodgkin lymphomas.[17][18]
Impact on Cultural History
Dorothy Reed Mendenhall, one of the scientists who discovered Reed-Sternberg cells, provided drawings of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma and the microscopic appearance of Reed-Sternberg cells. She was one of the first female physicians who gained a professional medical education, and also one of the first women who graduated from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.[19][20][21]
