Read More »ON THIS PAGE: You will find out more about the factors that increase the chance of developing NHL. Use the menu to see other pages. A risk factor is anything that increases a person’s chance of developing cancer. Although risk factors often influence the development of cancer, most do not directly cause cancer. Some people with several risk factors never develop cancer, while others with no known risk factors do. Knowing your risk factors and talking about them with your doctor may help you make more informed lifestyle and health care choices. The exact cause of NHL is not known, and most people diagnosed with NHL will not learn what caused it. However, the following factors may raise a person’s risk of developing NHL: Age. The risk of NHL increases with age. The most common subtypes occur most often in people in their 60s and 70s.

Some drugs used to treat autoimmune disorders may increase the risk of NHL. Organ transplantation. Organ transplant recipients have a higher risk of NHL. This is because of the drugs patients must take to reduce immune system function in order to protect the transplanted organ from rejection. Previous cancer treatment. Previous treatment with certain drugs for other types of cancer may increase the risk of NHL. Chemical exposure. Exposure to certain chemicals may increase the risk of NHL. This may include pesticides, herbicides (like Agent Orange), and petrochemicals. Genetic factors. Currently there are no widely accepted genetic tests to identify inherited risk factors for NHL or that reliably predict a person’s risk of developing NHL. These possible risks are being studied in ongoing clinical trials. Vaccines. The relationship between vaccinations and lymphoma remains unclear and controversial. A number of studies have found an association between Bacillus Calmette–Guerin (BCG) vaccination and an increased risk of NHL. BCG is a vaccine for tuberculosis disease that is used to treat some cases of bladder cancer. However, research has also associated other vaccinations with a decreased risk of NHL, such as those for smallpox, cholera, yellow fever, influenza, measles, tetanus, and polio.
