Complex karyotype in patients with mantle cell lymphoma predicts inferior survival and poor response to intensive induction therapy.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Risk stratification of newly diagnosed patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) primarily is based on the MCL International Prognostic Index (MIPI) and Ki-67 proliferative index. Single-center studies have reported inferior outcomes in patients with a complex karyotype (CK), but this remains an area of controversy. METHODS:The authors retrospectively reviewed 483 patients from 5 academic centers in the United States and described the effect of a CK on survival outcomes in individuals with MCL. RESULTS:A CK was found to be associated with inferior overall survival (OS) (4.5 vs 11.6 years; P<.01) and progression-free survival (PFS) (1.9 vs 4.4 years; P<.01). In patients who underwent high-intensity induction followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in first remission, a CK was associated with poor OS (5.1 vs 11.6 years; P = .04) and PFS (3.6 vs 7.8 years; P<.01). Among patients with a CK, high-intensity induction had no effect on OS (4.5 vs 3.8 years; P = .77) nor PFS (2.3 vs 1.5 years; P = .46). Similarly, ASCT in first remission did not improve PFS (3.5 vs 1.2 years; P = .12) nor OS (5.1 vs 4.0 years; P = .27). On multivariable analyses with Ki-67 and MIPI, only CK was found to be predictive of OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1.98; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.12-3.49 [P = .02]), whereas both CK (HR, 1.91; 95% CI, 1.17-3.12 [P = .01]) and Ki-67 >30% (HR, 1.86; 95% CI, 1.06-3.28 [P = .03]) were associated with inferior PFS. Multivariable analysis did not identify any specific cytogenetic abnormalities associated with inferior survival. CONCLUSIONS:CK appears to be independently associated with inferior outcomes in patients with MCL regardless of the intensity of induction therapy and receipt of ASCT. Cytogenetics should be incorporated into the workup of a new diagnosis of MCL and novel therapeutic approaches should be investigated for patients with CK.

Project description:Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is a catalytic component of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) which reduces gene expression via trimethylation of a lysine residue of histone 3 (H3K27me3). Expression of EZH2 has not been assessed systematically in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Expression of EZH2 was assessed by immunohistochemistry in 166 patients with MCL. We also assessed other PRC2 components and H3K27me3. Fifty-seven (38%) of MCL patients were positive for EZH2 using 40% cutoff. EZH2 expression was associated with aggressive histologic variants (65% vs. 29%, p < 0.001), high Ki-67 proliferation rate (median, 72% vs. 19%, p < 0.001), and p53 overexpression (43% vs. 2%, p < 0.001). EZH2 expression did not correlate with expression of other PRC2 components (EED and SUZ12), H3K27me3, MHC-I, and MHC-II. Patients with EZH2 expression (EZH2+) had a poorer overall survival (OS) compared with patients without EZH2 expression (EZH2-) (median OS: 3.9 years versus 9.4 years, respectively, p < 0.001). EZH2 expression also predicted a poorer prognosis in MCL patients with classic histology (median OS, 4.6 years for EZH2+ and 9.6 years for EZH2-negative, respectively, p < 0.001) as well as aggressive histology (median OS, 3.7 years for EZH2+ and 7.9 years for EZH2-negative, respectively, p = 0.046). However, EZH2 expression did not independently correlate with overall survival in a multivariate analysis. Gene expression analysis and pathway enrichment analysis demonstrated a significant enrichment in cell cycle and mitotic transition pathways in MCL with EZH2 expression. EZH2 expression detected by immunohistochemistry is present in 38% of MCL cases and it is associated with high proliferation rate, p53 overexpression, aggressive histologic variants, and poorer OS. Based on gene expression profiling data, EZH2 expression could potentiate cell cycle machinery in MCL. These data suggest that assessment of EZH2 expression could be useful to stratify MCL patients into low- and high-risk groups.

Project description:BackgroundIn the present study, the prognostic impact of minimal residual disease during treatment on time to progression and overall survival was analyzed prospectively in patients with mantle cell lymphoma treated on the Cancer and Leukemia Group B 59909 clinical trial.Design and methodsPeripheral blood and bone marrow samples were collected during different phases of the Cancer and Leukemia Group B 59909 study for minimal residual disease analysis. Minimal residual disease status was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction of IgH and/or BCL-1/JH gene rearrangement. Correlation of minimal residual disease status with time to progression and overall survival was determined. In multivariable analysis, minimal residual disease, and other risk factors were correlated with time to progression.ResultsThirty-nine patients had evaluable, sequential peripheral blood and bone marrow samples for minimal residual disease analysis. Using peripheral blood monitoring, 18 of 39 (46%) achieved molecular remission following induction therapy. The molecular remission rate increased from 46 to 74% after one course of intensification therapy. Twelve of 21 minimal residual disease positive patients (57%) progressed within three years of follow up compared to 4 of 18 (22%) molecular remission patients (P=0.049). Detection of minimal residual disease following induction therapy predicted disease progression with a hazard ratio of 3.7 (P=0.016). The 3-year probability of time to progression among those who were in molecular remission after induction chemotherapy was 82% compared to 48% in patients with detectable minimal residual disease. The prediction of time to progression by post-induction minimal residual disease was independent of other prognostic factors in multivariable analysis.ConclusionsDetection of minimal residual disease following induction immunochemotherapy was an independent predictor of time to progression following immunochemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation for mantle cell lymphoma.
