The occurrence of a large-cell lymphoma (LCL) concurrent with or subsequent to lymphocytic predominance Hodgkin's disease (LPHD) is well documented. Given the well-characterized B-cell nature of the Reed-Sternberg cell variants in LPHD, there may be a clonal relationship between the LPHD and the associated B-cell LCL. In this study, we adapted a highly sensitive, clonospecific assay to test whether the clone comprising the LCL exists in the corresponding LPHD tumor. Nine cases meeting the histologic criteria of nodular LPHD and B-cell LCL were identified, reviewed, and studied. Initially, clonality of both lesions was assessed using consensus primers to conserved regions in the IgH variable (frame-work III) and joining region genes in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. The PCR assay detected a clonal B-cell population in five of the LCLs, whereas analysis of eight cases of LPHD did not detect a dominant clone. Clonal products from the LCL were then sequenced, and clonospecific oligonucleotides were designed from the unique nucleotide sequence encoding the complementarity-determining region-III. These were then used as primers and/or probes in sensitive PCR-based assays on the corresponding LPHD tumors. In two cases, the clonospecific assay showed that the LPHD and LCL shared a common clone that was further confirmed by sequence analysis. This finding provides genotypic evidence that, at least in some cases, the LCL represents a clonal progression of LPHD.
