Abstract Of 187 specimens of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and four hyperplastic lymphoid proliferations with clonal chromosome abnormalities ascertained serially over a 4 1/2-year period, nine cases with t(3;22)(q27;q11) were identified. Seven of the lymphomas were diffuse tumors, predominantly large cell type. The eighth tumor, a follicular small cleaved cell lymphoma, exhibited a t(3;22) and a t(14;18)(q32;q21). The ninth case was a lymph node from a human immunodeficiency virus-positive patient which showed atypical hyperplasia. Overall survival of t(3;22) diffuse lymphoma patients was not different from that of patients with abnormal karyotypes without t(3;22). The t(3;22) diffuse tumors studied showed a disproportionate frequency of lambda light chain on their cell surfaces, a finding similar to that observed in t(8;22)(q24;q11) Burkitt's lymphomas. Our results indicate that the t(3;22)(q27;q11) is the third most common recurring translocation in diffuse non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Abstract Abstract 5106 Background: The incidence and biology of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) vary according to age, and the outcome differs amongst children being less favorable in infants and adolescents. Objectives: To analyze the outcome and toxicity patterns of young children with NHL comparing patients aged < 10 years to those 10–18 years of age. Methods: A retrospective review of children ≤ 18 years of age diagnosed with NHL over a period of 13 years. Patients were treated according to different protocols and treatment subgroups included: Burkitt lymphoma (BL), diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL), anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), and peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Post-organ transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) and immunodeficient patients were excluded. Results: From 01/1995 to 12/2008, 173 children with NHL were reviewed. Of these, 81 pts (47%) were <10 years of age, with BL (29 pts), DLBCL (5 pts), PTCL (6 pts), LL (27 pts), and ALCL (14 pts). The 10-year overall survival (OS) was 93. 6+2. 8% in patients aged < 10 years compared to 77. 3+7. 2 in patients 10–18 years of age (P=0. 02). The 10-year event-free survival (EFS) was 89. 4+3. 5% in patients aged < 10 years compared to 70+9. 3% in patients 10–18 years of age (P=0. 03). BL was the most common subtype in patients <10 years, with a 10-year EFS of 96. 4+3. 5% versus 82. 6+7. 9% in patients 10–18 years of age (P=0. 10). The most common subtype in patients 10–18 years of age was ALCL (36%), the 10-year EFS was 78. 5+8. 3 versus 92. 9+6. 9 in patients < 10 years (P=0. 29). Children 10–18 years of age were more likely to develop neurotoxicity (9. 7% vs 0%), gastrointestinal toxicity (30% vs 12%), and treatment-related mortality (4. 3% vs 2. 4%). Conclusions: Children < 10 years with NHL have better outcomes and less treatment-related toxicity than older children. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Of 95 young non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients entered consecutively on the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Protocol 7704, 26 (27.4%) had involvement of one or more bones. The mean age of these 26 patients was 16.6 years, and the male to female ratio was 3.3:1. Tumor histology included undifferentiated Burkitt's lymphoma in 12, undifferentiated non-Burkitt's lymphoma in two, undifferentiated, unspecified lymphoma in one, diffuse large cell lymphoma in three, and lymphoblastic lymphoma in eight patients. Most had extensive disease; two patients had isolated bone lesions, one had lesions of two bones without involvement of other tissues, and 23 had either multiple bone lesions or single bone lesions with involvement of other tissues. Eight of the 26 patients had bone marrow involvement. Of a subgroup of 12 patients with jaw disease, 11 had undifferentiated lymphoma and one had diffuse large cell lymphoma. Only one had primary a jaw tumor, with two quadrants of the jaw involved. All 26 patients were treated with chemotherapy; only two received radiotherapy initially for bone lesions. Predicted survival of the 26 patients at 5 years is 53.2%. The 12 patients who remain disease free have a mean survival of 62.1 months (range, 22 to 100 months). Our results call into question the role of radiotherapy in the treatment of bone lesions in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Purpose: Intestinal non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas are not well characterized. We therefore studied prospectively their clinical features and response to standardized therapy. Patients and Methods: Fifty-six patients with primary intestinal lymphoma were included in a prospective, nonrandomized multicenter study. Lymphoma resection was recommended and staging was performed according to the Ann Arbor classification. Patients were scheduled to receive six cycles of cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisolone (CHOP) chemotherapy, and at stages EIII to EIV, they received additional involved-field radiotherapy. Corticosteroids were used in patients who could not receive chemotherapy. Results: Thirty-five patients had intestinal T-cell lymphoma (ITCL), 21 patients had intestinal B-cell lymphoma (IBCL; 18 diffuse large-cell lymphomas, two marginal-cell lymphomas, and one follicle-center lymphoma). Thirty-four patients at stages EI to EII (14 ITCL and 20 IBCL) and nine patients at stages EIII to EIV (all ITCL) received chemotherapy. No patient in stages EIII to EIV received radiotherapy, because death occurred in 12 of 14 patients. Two-year cumulative survival in patients with IBCL was 94% (95% CI, 82% to 100%) and higher than in patients with ITCL (28% [95% CI, 13% to 43%]; P < .0001), even when only stages EI to EII were considered (ITCL, 37.5% [95% CI, 16.5% to 58.5%]; P < .0001). IBCL patients compared with ITCL patients were at lower lymphoma stages (P < .01), had higher Karnofsky status (P < .005), had intestinal perforation less often (P < .05), required emergency operation less often (P < .05), received CHOP (P < .05) more often, and reached complete remission (P < .0005) more frequently. Conclusion: IBCL patients at stages EI and EII respond well to chemotherapy, but the prognosis and treatment of ITCL patients is unsatisfactory.
