“…1 Radiation therapy is a main contributor to solid tumors in HL survivors, although more recent data have linked alkylating chemotherapy to a variety of solid tumors, including lung cancer and gastrointestinal cancers. [2][3][4][5] For selected second malignancies, sex, age at treatment, environmental exposures, and underlying genetic factors also contribute to the increased risks. [6][7][8] Best et al showed 2 variants at chromosome 6q21 to be associated with subsequent malignant neoplasm in survivors of HL treated with radiation therapy as children but not as adults.…”

“…Case-control studies have shown a significant radiation dose-response relationship for the development of stomach cancer in HL survivors. 2,4 In a population-based study, it was found that HL patients who develop cancer of the transverse colon and stomach experience significantly reduced survival compared with patients with de novo cancers. 22 In addition to radiotherapy, several chemotherapeutic agents, including procarbazine, platinum, and dacarbazine, are associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer in a dose-related manner.…”

“…Rather, a supplemental control matched on type of initial cancer was selected for case-control sets, in which none of the selected controls had the same type of first cancer, to allow for analyses restricted to matched sets with the same primary malignancy (28,29). A recent case-control study examining radiation dose and chemotherapy as risk factors for second stomach cancer was nested in a combined cohort of survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma and testicular cancer and did not match on primary cancer site (43). Future studies should carefully consider the pros and cons of including specific matching factors in the design phase.…”

“…Observations linking RT-related late toxicities to both the RT dose and the volume of normal tissue irradiated have sparked investigators to explore avenues to reduce the intensity of therapy in order to minimize the risk of toxicity while still preserving oncologic efficacy. 3,[7][8][9][10] Technological advances in RT planning and delivery have also provided innovative solutions for minimizing the radiation exposure of normal tissue.…”
