Background. RTX, an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody, added to chemotherapy has proven to be effective in children and adolescents with high-grade, high-risk and matured non-Hodgk in lymphoma. RTX leads to prompt CD19+ B lymphocyte depletion. However, despite preserved immunoglobulin production by long-lived plasmablasts after treatment, patients remain at risk of prolonged hypogammaglobulinemia. Further, there are few general guidelines for immunology laboratories and clinical feature monitoring after B cell-targeted therapies. The aim of this paper is to describe B cell reconstitution and immunoglobulin levels after pediatric B-NHL protocols, that included a single RTX dose and to review the literature. Methods. A retrospective single-center study on the impact of a single RTX dose included in a chemotherapeutic pediatric B Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (B-NHL) treatment protocols. Immunology laboratory and clinical features were evaluated over an eight hundred days follow-up (FU) period, after completing B-NHL treatment. Results. Nineteen patients (fifteen Burkitt lymphoma, three Diffuse large B cell lymphoma, and one Marginal zone B cell lymphoma) fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Initiation of B cell subset reconstitution occurred a median of three months after B-NHL treatment. Naive and transitional B cells declined over the FU in contrast to the marginal zone and the switched memory B cell increase. The percentage of patients with IgG, IgA, and IgM hypogammaglobulinemia declined consistently over the FU. Prolonged IgG hypogammaglobulinemia was detectable in 9%, IgM in 13%, and IgA in 25%. All revaccinated patients responded to protein-based vaccines by specific IgG antibody production increase. Following antibiotic prophylaxes, none of the patients with hypogammaglobulinemia manifested with either a severe or opportunistic infection course. Conclusion. The addition of a single RTX dose to the chemotherapeutic treatment protocols was not shown to increase the risk of developing secondary antibody deficiency in B-NHL pediatric patients. Observed prolonged hypogammaglobulinemia remained clinically silent. However interdisciplinary agreement on regular long-term immunology FU after anti-CD20 agent treatment is required.
