PD-L1 and miR-34a are Prognostic Factors for Primary Gastric Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Patients Treated with R-CHOP.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:Primary gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (GDLBCL) is a heterogeneous disease in clinicopathological features and prognosis. Programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) and microRNA-34a (miR-34a) play crucial roles in GDLBCL progress. The purpose of this research is to explore the clinical significance of PD-L1 and miR-34a expression in GDLBCL. Patients and Methods:The expressions of PD-L1 and miR-34a were examined by IHC and qRT-PCR in 109 patients who were diagnosed with GDLBCL and were treated with rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, prednisone vincristine and prednisone chemotherapy (R-CHOP) from January 2010 to December 2018. Results:PD-L1 level was significantly higher in tumor tissues than adjacent non-tumor tissues (60.5%, P<0.001), while the miR-34a level was just reversed (50.5%, P<0.001), which was negatively correlated (r=-0.524, P<0.001). Notably, PD-L1-positive and miR-34a-negative expressions were significantly correlated with the advanced Lugano stage of IIE-IV stage (P<0.001 and P<0.01), elevated serumal LDH levels (P<0.001 and P<0.05), B symptoms present (P<0.001 and P<0.001), non-GCB subtype (P<0.001 and P<0.001) and negative Bcl-2 expression (P<0.05 and P<0.001). PD-L1 high and miR-34a low expression groups had more patients with IPI scores of 2 or greater (P<0.001 and P<0.05) and poor R-IPI (P<0.01 and P<0.01). The complete response rate was upregulated in patients with negative PD-L1 and positive miR-34a expression after R-CHOP treatment. Discussion:PD-L1 expression and miR-34a expression were significantly associated with clinicopathological characteristics and survival prognosis; they may serve as novel prognostic markers in GDLBCL patients who were treated with R-CHOP. Immunotherapies targeting PD-L1 and miR-34a pathway may have therapeutic potential in GDLBCL.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The introduction of rituximab (R) to conventional CHOP chemotherapy for newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) led to an unequivocal improvement in survival, establishing RCHOP as the standard of care. Still, nearly 40% of DLBCL patients will eventually die of relapsed disease. Efforts to improve outcomes by addition of new biologic agents (X) to the RCHOP backbone are underway. In this era of R(X)CHOP, it is imperative to develop prognostic and predictive markers, not only to identify patients who will suffer a particularly aggressive course, but also to accurately select patients for clinical trials from which they will most benefit. DESIGN:The following review was undertaken to describe prognostic factors in DLBCL, with emphasis on markers that are accurate, relatively available, and clinically applicable in 2014. RESULTS:The International Prognostic Index retains its validity in the era of RCHOP, although with limited ability to predict those with <50% chance of long-term survival. Gene expression profiling has provided novel insights into the biology of DLBCL and led to the development of immunohistochemistry (IHC) algorithms that are in routine practice. Identification of a 'double-hit' (DH) lymphoma by fluorescent in situ hybridization with aberrations involving MYC and/or BCL2 and BCL6 genes has important implications due to its extremely dismal prognosis with RCHOP. Other markers such as the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), serum immunoglobulin free light chains, vitamin D levels, serum cytokines/chemokines, and imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) have all shown promise as future predictive/prognostic tests. CONCLUSIONS:The future for new treatment options in DLBCL is promising with current clinical trials testing novel targeted agents such as bortezomib, lenalidomide, and ibrutinib as the 'X' in R(X)CHOP. Predictive factors are required to select and randomize patients appropriately for these trials. We envision the day when 'X' will be chosen based on the biological characteristics of the tumor.
