Some develop a lymphoproliferative disorder that can follow a clinically aggressive course and may represent a pre-malignant lesion. Although most of these lymphoproliferative disorders are of B-cell origin, T-cell or non-B-non-T-cell processes have also been observed. The pathogenesis is only partially understood. The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is thought to play an important role but the human herpes virus type 6 (HHV-6) has been implicated as well. An imbalance in the expression of several cytokines is observed and it is currently not clear whether this sustains the aberrant proliferation or is a result thereof. In the case of pre-malignant conditions it is often difficult to know when and whether a therapeutic intervention is necessary and a careful consideration of potential treatment-associated morbidity is indicated. Therapies have ranged from influencing the possible infectious etiology (by treating with acyclovir), decreasing the amount of immunosuppression (in transplant patients), to the use of immunomodulatory agents, including interferons and interleukins. Recent data have indicated that the use of differentiating agents, such as the retinoids, might offer yet another treatment option. In the current study we will try to get a better understanding of the pathogenesis and natural course of lymphoproliferative disorders in immunodeficient children. The study will mainly be open to children infected with the human immunodeficiency virus but patients who develop a lymphoproliferative disorder post-transplant or as part of another immunodeficiency state may also be enrolled. The study will have two parts: an initial observation period to obtain information on the natural course of these disorders, and then a six month treatment period with the combination of a differentiating agent (13-cis-retinoic acid was used until all-trans-retinoic acid became available on 7/96) with an immunomodulatory agent (interferon-alpha2a, IFN-alpha2a)."}, "eligibilityModule"=>{"sex"=>"ALL", "stdAges"=>["CHILD", "ADULT", "OLDER_ADULT"], "healthyVolunteers"=>false, "eligibilityCriteria"=>"DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:\n\nCongenital or acquired immunodeficiency (including HIV-1 infection) with a lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) of any of the following types:\n\nSevere and/or progressive lymphadenopathy with hypergammaglobulinemia.\n\nDiffuse infiltrative lymphocytosis syndrome.\n\nClinically symptomatic pulmonary lymphoid hyperplasia/lymphocytic interstitial pneumonitis.\n\nPolyclonal B-cell LPD.\n\nNo patients with malignant lymphoma.\n\nNo active opportunistic infection requiring acute intervention at entry.\n\nTHERAPY:\n\nBiologic Therapy:\n\nAt least 30 days since immunomodulating agents or biological response modifiers, e.g.: Interleukin-2, Interferons, Growth hormone, Insulin-like growth factor 1.\n\nRequirement waived for intravenous immunoglobulins for hypogammaglobulinemia.\n\nConcurrent post-transplant immunosuppressants allowed.
