Mutations or copy number losses of CD58 and TP53 genes in diffuse large B cell lymphoma are independent unfavorable prognostic factors.

ABSTRACT: The advent of next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies has expedited the discovery of novel genetic lesions in DLBCL. The prognostic significance of these identified gene mutations is largely unknown. In this study, we performed NGS for the 27 genes most frequently implicated in 196 patients. Interestingly, TP53 mutations were found to be significantly more common in DLBCL with MYC translocations (r = 0.446, P = 0.034). While no gene mutation was found to be more prevalent in patients with DLBCL with bone marrow involvement, MYD88 mutations were more common in primary DLBCL of the CNS or testis. To evaluate the prognostic significance of the abnormalities of these 27 genes, a total of 165 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL, NOS were included in a multivariate survival analysis. Surprisingly, in addition to the TP53 mutation, CD58 mutation was found to predict poor clinical outcome. Furthermore, copy number loss of CD58 or TP53 was also identified to be an independent negative prognostic factor. Our results have uncovered the previously unknown critical impact of gene mutations on the prognosis of DLBCL and are fundamentally important for the future design of tailored therapy for improved clinical outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with concurrent hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection have distinct clinical features. Nevertheless, the prognostic value of HBsAg in DLBCL in the rituximab era remains unclear.Materials and methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study to investigate the clinical relevance of HBsAg in immunocompetent patients with DLBCL treated with homogeneous rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone between 2002 and 2016.ResultsAmong 416 analyzed patients, 98 (23.6%) were HBsAg positive. HBsAg positivity was associated with a younger age and more advanced stage at diagnosis, more frequent hepatic impairment during perichemotherapy, and a trend of higher National Comprehensive Cancer Network-International Prognostic Index (NCCN-IPI) score at diagnosis. Compared with the HBsAg-negative patients, the HBsAg-positive patients had a lower overall response rate (76.5% vs. 85.5%, p = .043), poorer 5-year overall survival (OS) rate (57.2% vs. 73.5%, p < .001), and shorter 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate (47.2% vs. 60.7%, p = .013). Multivariate analyses showed that HBsAg positivity was an independent unfavorable prognostic indicator for OS and PFS. A scoring system incorporating HBsAg positivity, the NCCN-IPI score, and serum albumin levels proved to be useful for stratifying prognostically relevant subgroups of patients with DLBCL.ConclusionThis study demonstrated that HBV infection is uniquely relevant to DLBCL. HBsAg might serve as a novel biomarker to improve clinical risk stratification of patients with DLBCL in areas with high prevalence of HBV infection. Further research investigating the etiopathogenesis of HBV infection in DLBCL is imperative.Implications for practiceA considerable disparity exists regarding the prognostic relevance of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In this large, retrospective cohort study from an area with high prevalence of HBV infection, the authors demonstrated that HBsAg was an independent unfavorable factor significantly associated with survival, highlighting its potential as a novel prognostic indicator to improve the risk stratification of patients with DLBCL in the rituximab era.
