Project description:This study evaluated the clinical features, treatment and prognosis in Chinese patients with histological transformation (HT) from gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma to gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. We reviewed the medical records of 71 patients diagnosed with HT between 2001 and 2013, retrospectively. Patients had a median age of 56 years. The ratio of sex (male:female) was 1.3:1. The clinical course was often insidious, lacking specific clinical presentation. Macroscopically, the antrum was the most commonly involved site. Thirty-one patients (45%) presented at stage I, and 25 (35%) presented with local (18/71, 25%) or distant (7/71, 10%) nodal involvement. There were also stage IIE (9/71, 12%) and stage IV (6/71, 8%) patients with advanced stages. For all 71 patients, the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) estimates were 50 and 56%, respectively. There was no statistical difference in 5-year PFS and OS estimates between patients receiving Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) containing eradication (HPE) (p=0.189) and those receiving non-HPE (p=0.359). Upon the Cox regression model, advanced stages were the only independent prognostic factors associated with shorter PFS, and m-IPI was independently associated with shorter PFS and OS. There was no specific clinical manifestation for patients with HT. HPE is thus a promising therapeutic approach for such patients. Moreover, advanced stages and m-IPI significantly influenced patient outcome.

Project description:Between January 2010 and December 2015, we enrolled 28 patients with stage IEI/IIE1 extragastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma who received first-line antibiotic treatment, after informing them about the pros and cons of alternative therapies. In addition, during the same period, 64 patients with stage IE/IIE1 disease who received conventional treatment were selected as the control group. The most common primary sites were the ocular adnexal area (17 cases), followed by the salivary glands (four cases), pulmonary (three cases), and thyroid, trachea, larynx, and colon region (one case each). First-line antibiotic treatment resulted in an overall response rate of 57.1%: 12 patients achieved complete remission (CR), while four achieved partial remission (antibiotic-responsive tumors). Monoclonal gammopathy was significantly prevalent in antibiotic-unresponsive tumors than in antibiotic-responsive tumors (50.0% [6/12] vs. 12.5% [2/16], p = 0.044). After a median follow-up of 7 years, all patients with CR remained lymphoma-free, with 7-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates of 62.7% and 96.4%, respectively. The 7-year EFS and OS rates of patients who received conventional treatments were 73.1% and 91.1%, respectively. Compared with that noted in patients who received conventional treatment, antibiotic treatment was effective in some patients with localized extragastric MALT lymphoma.

Project description:First-line antibiotic treatment for eradicating Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection is effective in HP-positive low-grade gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALToma), but its role in HP-negative cases is uncertain. In this exploratory retrospective study, we assessed the outcome and potential predictive biomarkers for 25 patients with HP-negative localized gastric MALToma who received first-line HP eradication (HPE) therapy. An HP-negative status was defined as negative results on histology, rapid urease test, 13C urea breath test, and serology. We observed an antibiotic response (complete remission [CR], number = 8; partial remission, number = 1) in 9 (36.0%) out of 25 patients. A t(11;18)(q21;q21) translocation was detected in 7 (43.8%) of 16 antibiotic-unresponsive cases, but in none of the 9 antibiotic-responsive cases (P = 0.027). Nuclear BCL10 expression was significantly higher in antibiotic-unresponsive tumors than in antibiotic-responsive tumors (14/16 [87.5%] vs. 1/9 [11.1%]; P = 0.001). Nuclear NF-κB expression was also significantly higher in antibiotic-unresponsive tumors than in antibiotic-responsive tumors (12/16 [75.0%] vs. 1/9 [11.1%]; P = 0.004). A substantial portion of patients with HP-negative gastric MALToma responded to first-line HPE. In addition to t(11;18)(q21;q21), BCL10 and NF-κB are useful immunohistochemical biomarkers to predict antibiotic-unresponsive status in this group of tumors.

Project description:To investigate the conjunctival microbiota and the association between the development of conjunctival mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and dysbiosis, DNA samples were collected from 25 conjunctival MALT lymphoma patients and 25 healthy controls. To compare the microbiota, samples were collected from the following four body locations: conjunctiva, meibomian gland, periocular skin and hand. Extracted DNA was analyzed by 16S rRNA sequences, and libraries were sequenced on an Illumina MiSeq sequencer. The differences in bacteria were characterized by using principal coordinate analysis of metagenomics data, and the differences in bacterial compositions were evaluated by linear discriminant analysis effect size. The conjunctival microbiota of MALT lymphoma patients was compositionally different from that of healthy controls. For the conjunctival MALT lymphoma patients, alterations in the microbial composition were detected, and a remarkable change was detected at the conjunctiva. Detailed analysis showed that a specific population of the microbiota, the genus Delftia, was significantly more abundant in conjunctival MALT lymphoma patients, and the genera Bacteroides and Clostridium were less abundant in the MALT lymphoma patients. A specific microbiota on the ocular surface in conjunctival MALT lymphoma patients was detected, and dysbiosis may play an important role in the pathophysiology of conjunctival MALT lymphoma.

Project description:ObjectivesTo investigate the long-term outcomes of oral doxycycline as first-line treatment in patients with conjunctival extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma).MethodsIn this case series, the medical records of 67 patients with conjunctival MALT lymphoma who received doxycycline as their primary treatment and were followed up for at least 5 years were retrospectively reviewed. Progression-free survival (PFS) was analysed at 3, 5, and 10 years after the initial doxycycline treatment. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the independent risk factors for progression.ResultsAfter the initial treatment, 25 patients (37.3%) achieved a complete response, 8 patients (11.9%) achieved a partial response, 30 patients (44.8%) showed stable disease, and 4 patients (6.0%) showed disease progression. The median PFS in all patients was 168 months, and the 3-, 5- and 10-year PFS rates for all patients were 70%, 65%, and 62%, respectively. No further progression was observed 6 years after the initial doxycycline treatment. Younger age and TNM stage T1c were significant risk factors for the time to progression in the multivariate Cox regression analysis (p < 0.05). Additional doxycycline (>2 cycles) showed no benefit. There were no serious adverse events associated with doxycycline therapy, and most patients were successfully salvaged by second-line treatments, including radiotherapy and chemotherapy.ConclusionIn this case series, oral doxycycline treatment yielded acceptable long-term PFS with minimal complications. Especially in patients with stage T1a or T1b conjunctival MALT lymphoma, first-line doxycycline treatment could be considered under close monitoring for at least 6 years.

Project description:BackgroundThe present study sought to understand how clinical factors and inflammatory biomarkers affected the prognosis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and develop a predictive nomogram to assist in clinical practice.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study on 183 cases of newly diagnosed MALT lymphoma from January 2011 to October 2021, randomly divided into two groups: a training cohort (75%); and a validation cohort (25%). The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis was combined with multivariate Cox regression analysis to construct a nomogram for predicting the progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with MALT lymphoma. To evaluate the accuracy of the nomogram model, the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used.ResultsThe PFS was significantly associated with the Ann Arbor Stage, targeted therapy, radiotherapy, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in MALT lymphoma. These four variables were combined to establish a nomogram to predict the PFS rates at three and five years. Importantly, our nomogram yielded good predictive value with area under the ROC curve (AUC) values of 0.841 and 0.763 in the training cohort and 0.860 and 0.879 in the validation cohort for the 3-year and 5-year PFS, respectively. Furthermore, the 3-year and 5-year PFS calibration curves revealed a high degree of consistency between the prediction and the actual probability of relapse. Additionally, DCA demonstrated the net clinical benefit of this nomogram and its ability to identify high-risk patients accurately.ConclusionThe new nomogram model could accurately predict the prognosis of MALT lymphoma patients and assist clinicians in designing individualized treatments.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to explore predictors and construct a nomogram for risk stratification in primary extragastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma.MethodsExtragastric MALT lymphoma cases newly diagnosed between November 2010 and April 2020 were assessed to construct a progression-free survival (PFS)-related nomogram. We also performed external validation of the nomogram in an independent cohort.ResultsWe performed multivariate analyses of 174 patients from 3 hospitals who were included in the training cohort. Stage, hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) status, and Ki67 expression were significantly associated with PFS. These three factors were used to construct a nomogram, which was shown to have a C-index of 0.89. Two risk groups (low risk and high risk) were identified by the prognostic model. The 5-year PFS was 98.9% for the low-risk group and 69.3% for the high-risk group (p < 0.001). The overall survival (OS) could also be effectively distinguished by the nomogram, resulting in an OS of 100% for the low-risk group and 94.6% for the high-risk group (p = 0.01). These results were validated and confirmed in an independent cohort with 165 patients from another three hospitals. The 5-year PFS rates were 94.8% and 66.7% for the low-risk and high-risk groups, respectively (p < 0.001). The 5-year OS rates were 97.9% and 88.4%, respectively (p = 0.016).ConclusionThe nomogram could well distinguish the prognosis of low- and high-risk patients with extragastric MALT lymphoma and is thus recommended for clinical use.

Project description:BackgroundMucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is an extranodal lymphoma with an indolent natural course. The thyroid gland is an uncommon site of involvement. We aimed to investigate serial ultrasound features and the disease progression during the clinical course of thyroid MALT lymphoma.MethodsWe searched our hospital's pathology database (5,418 patients with thyroid malignancy) between January 2000 and July 2022. The medical records and serial ultrasounds of 11 patients with 12 thyroid MALT lymphoma foci were analyzed retrospectively.ResultsAn enlarging neck mass, dyspnea, B symptoms, and neck lymphadenopathy were seen at diagnosis in 9 (9/11, 81.8%), 3 (3/11, 27.3%), 2 (2/11, 18.2%), and 9 (9/11, 81.8%) cases, respectively. Eleven cases were concomitant Hashimoto thyroiditis. Common ultrasound features included bilateral or unilateral asymmetric goiter or large, solid, and very hypoechoic nodules (11/12, 91.7%) interspersed with linear, reticular hyperechoic, and enhanced posterior echoes (11/12, 91.7%), and neck lymph node involvement (10/11, 90.9%). The Thyroid Imaging and Reporting Data System (TIRADS) categories showed higher diagnostic accuracy (11/12, 91.7%) than real-time ultrasound (2/12, 16.7%) in evaluating thyroid lesions for recommendation of fine-needle aspiration (FNA). Serial ultrasound showed self-limiting changes in three cases, relapse in three cases after subtotal thyroidectomy and chemotherapy, large cell transformation (LCT) in one case after left lobectomy, partial remission in one case, and complete remission after chemo/radiation in four cases; progression to enlarged thyroid nodules occurred in three cases without treatment, with no obvious change observed after diagnosis. Three patients died during follow-up.ConclusionOn sonograms, solid large thyroid nodules or goiter with very hypoechoic and enhanced posterior echoes in the setting of Hashimoto thyroiditis should raise suspicion for MALT lymphoma. TIRADS categories can improve the ultrasound diagnostic efficacy for malignancy. Serial ultrasound examinations demonstrated self-limiting and indolent natures of thyroid MALT lymphoma.

Project description:A 67-year-old man complained of lower limb edema with a purpuric skin rash. Laboratory tests revealed proteinuria, elevated serum creatinine levels, and low serum albumin levels. The patient was also positive for cryoglobulin in serum, immunoglobulin (Ig) M gammopathy, hypocomplementemia, and rheumatoid factor. He was negative for anti-hepatitis C virus antibodies. A pathological analysis of the renal tissue revealed membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, common histological features of cryoglobulinemic vasculitis (CV), and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma invasion. Although hematologic malignancy is a rare cause of type II CV, these clinical findings suggest that mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT) lymphoma may have been the cause in the present case.

Project description:BackgroundHelicobacter pylori eradication therapy was approved in Japan for the first-line, standard treatment of H. pylori-positive gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Although several retrospective studies or small-scale single-center studies have been reported, a prospective, large-scale, nationwide, multicenter study has not been reported from Japan.Materials and methodsWe conducted a prospective, nationwide, multicenter study to evaluate the clinical efficacy of rabeprazole-based triple H. pylori eradication therapy for patients with localized gastric MALT lymphoma in practice-based clinical trial. A total of 108 H. pylori-positive patients with stage I/II1 gastric MALT lymphoma underwent H. pylori eradication therapy. The primary endpoints were complete remission (CR) rate and the rate of transfer to secondary treatment. The secondary endpoints were CR maintenance duration and overall survival (OS).ResultsCR of lymphoma was achieved in 84 of 97 patients (86.6%), during the period 2.0-44.7 months (median, 5.3 months) after starting H. pylori eradication treatment. CR was maintained in 77 of 81 patients (95.1%) for 0.4-53.2 months (median, 33.1 months). Secondary treatments (radiotherapy, rituximab, or gastrectomy) for gastric MALT lymphoma were needed in 10 of the 97 patients (10.31%). During follow-up, OS rate was 96.9% (94/97) and the causes of 3 deaths were not related to lymphoma.ConclusionsRabeprazole-based H. pylori eradication therapy demonstrated a high CR rate, long CR maintenance, and a good OS for patients with localized gastric MALT lymphoma in this prospective, practice-based, multicenter study.
