Combination of Bone Marrow Biopsy and Flow Cytometric Analysis: The Prognostically Relevant Central Approach for Detecting Bone Marrow Invasion in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Bone marrow (BM) involvement is associated with prognosis in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most prevalent disease subtype of malignant lymphoma. We conducted this multi-institutional retrospective study to investigate the functional association and prognostic values of four BM tests (BM biopsy, BM clot, flow cytometry (FCM), and BM smear). A total of 221 DLBCL patients were enrolled. BM involvement was detected in 17 (7.7%), 16 (7.2%), 27 (12.2%), and 34 (15.4%) patients by BM biopsy, BM clot, FCM, and BM smear, respectively. The consistency between BM biopsy and clot examination was favorable, with a κ coefficient of 0.705, whereas the consistencies among other modalities were poor. In 184 patients treated with the first-line R-CHOP (-like) regimen, BM involvement was associated with shorter progression-free survival (PFS) irrespective of the type of modality for a positive result. Intriguingly, among various single and combinatory modalities, the combination of BM biopsy and FCM had the highest hazard ratio of 3.33 and a c-index of 0.712. In conclusion, our study suggested that the combination of BM biopsy and FCM is the prognostically relevant central approach for BM involvement detection. The other BM examinations also may provide complementary information in clinical settings.

PET/CT Scanner and Bone Marrow Biopsy in Detection of Bone Marrow Involvement in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:Evaluation of bone marrow involvement (BMI) is paramount in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) for prognostic and therapeutic reasons. PET/CT scanner (PET) is now a routine examination for the staging of DLBCL with prognostic and therapeutic implications. This study evaluates the role of PET for detecting marrow involvement compared to bone marrow biopsy (BMB). This monocentric study included 54 patients diagnosed with DLBCL between 2009 and 2013 and who had FDG PET/CT in a pre-treatment setting. A correlation analysis of the detection of BMI by PET and BMB was performed. A prognostic evaluation of BMI by BMB and/or PET/CT and correlation with an overall 2-year survival were analyzed. PET was more sensitive for the detection of BMI than BMB (92.3% vs. 38.5%). It can be considered a discriminatory Pre-BMB test with a negative predictive value of 97.6%. In addition, BMI by PET had a prognostic value with strong correlation with progression-free survival (PFS) (HR = 3.81; p = 0.013) and overall survival (OS) (HR = 4.12; p = 0.03) while the BMB had not. PET shows superior performance to the BMB for the detection of marrow involvement in DLBCL. It may be considered as the first line examination of bone marrow instead of the biopsy.

Comparison of FDG PET/CT and Bone Marrow Biopsy Results in Patients with Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma with Subgroup Analysis of PET Radiomics.

Project description:Whether FDG PET/CT can replace bone marrow biopsy (BMBx) is undecided in patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). We compared the visual PET findings and PET radiomic features, with BMBx results. A total of 328 patients were included; 269 (82%) were PET-negative and 59 (18%) were PET-positive for bone lesions on visual assessment. A fair degree of agreement was present between PET and BMBx findings (ĸ = 0.362, p < 0.001). Bone involvement on PET/CT lead to stage IV in 12 patients, despite no other evidence of extranodal lesion. Of 35 discordant PET-positive and BMBx-negative cases, 22 (63%) had discrete bone uptake on PET/CT. A total of 144 patients were eligible for radiomic analysis, and two grey-level zone-length matrix derived parameters obtained from the iliac crests showed a trend for higher values in the BMBx-positive group compared to the BMBx-negative group (mean 436.6 ± 449.0 versus 227.2 ± 137.8, unadjusted p = 0.037 for high grey-level zone emphasis; mean 308.8 ± 394.4 versus 135.7 ± 97.2, unadjusted p = 0.048 for short-zone high grey-level emphasis), but statistical significance was not found after multiple comparison correction. Visual FDG PET/CT assessment and BMBx results were discordant in 17% of patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL, and the two tests are complementary in the evaluation of bone involvement.

The value of bone marrow biopsy for staging of patients with primary CNS lymphoma.

Project description:BackgroundIn patients with presumed primary CNS lymphoma (PCNSL), a systemic manifestation is found only in a small minority. Although bone marrow biopsy (BMB) is recommended for staging, its diagnostic value is unclear.MethodsA retrospective analysis of 392 patients with presumed PCNSL from 3 university hospitals and 33 patients with secondary CNS lymphoma (SCNSL) and initial CNS involvement from a multicenter Germany-wide prospective registry was performed.ResultsA BMB was performed and documented in 320/392 patients with presumed PCNSL; 23 had pathologic results. One harbored the same lymphoma in the brain and bone marrow (BM), 22 showed findings in BM discordant to the histology of brain lymphoma; n = 12 harbored a low-grade lymphoma in the BM, the other showed B-cell proliferation but no proof of lymphoma (n = 5), monoclonal B cells (n = 3), or abnormalities not B-cell-associated (n = 2). In the group of SCNSL with initial CNS manifestation, 32/33 patients underwent BMB; 7 were documented with bone marrow involvement (BMI); 1 had concordant results in the brain and BM with no other systemic manifestation. Six had additional systemic lymphoma manifestations apart from the brain and BM.ConclusionsIn only 2 out of 352 (0.6%) patients with CNS lymphoma (320 presumed PCNSL and 32 SCNSL), BMB had an impact on diagnosis and treatment. While collected in a selected cohort, these findings challenge the value of BMB as part of routine staging in presumed PCNSL.

Primary isolated bone marrow diffuse large B cell lymphoma with long-term complete remission.

Project description:Secondary bone marrow involvement of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is relatively common. However, primary isolated bone marrow involvement in NHL which was successfully treated and remains in complete remission (CR) for a long-term duration without any relapse is extremely rare. We herein report a patient of primary bone marrow diffuse large B cell lymphoma (PBML/DLBCL) who presented a prolonged high-grade fever and systemic purpura due to severe thrombocytopenia. The patient was successfully treated with systemic chemotherapy by R-CHOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisolone) and remains in CR at 8 years after the initial diagnosis. Review of the literature in PBML/DLBCL cases are also shown.

Diagnostic Accuracy and Prognostic Relevance of Immunoglobulin Heavy Chain Rearrangement and 18F-FDG-PET/CT Compared With Unilateral Bone Marrow Trephination for Detecting Bone Marrow Involvement in Patients With Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:BackgroundIn diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), bone marrow involvement (BMI) has an important clinical implication as a component of staging and International Prognostic Index. This study aimed to determine whether molecular analysis of immunoglobulin heavy chain (IgH) genes and positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) could overcome the limitation of defining morphologic BMI by trephination biopsy and could increase the diagnostic accuracy or prognostic prediction.MethodsA total of 94 de novo patients with DLBCL underwent PET/CT, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test for detection of IgH gene rearrangement, and unilateral bone marrow (BM) trephination at diagnosis.ResultsA total of 9 patients (9.6%) were confirmed to present morphologic BMI (mBMI) based on trephination biopsy. On the other hand, 21 patients (22.3%) were confirmed to have IgH clonality (IgH BMI), while 16 (17.0%) were classified with BMI based on the assessment of PET/CT (PET BMI). Each IgH rearrangement PCR and PET/CT showed the high negative predictive value of detecting the BMI. However, the combined assessment of IgH rearrangement and PET/CT could increase the diagnostic accuracy and specificity with 87.2% and 97.0%, respectively. The survival outcome of patients with double positive PET BMI and IgH BMI was significantly worse than that with either single positive PET BMI or IgH BMI, and even less than patients with neither PET BMI nor IgH BMI (3-year PFS: 50.0% vs. 75.4% vs. 97.9%, P = 0.007, 3-year OS: 50.0% vs. 75.6% vs. 80.1%, P = 0.035, respectively).ConclusionThis study suggests that the combined evaluation of PET/CT and IgH rearrangement could give additional information for predicting therapeutic outcomes in patients with negative morphologic BMI as an important part of the prognosis.

Usefulness of Flow Cytometric Analysis for Detecting Leptomeningeal Diseases in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Project description:The clinical usefulness of flow cytometry (FCM) for the diagnosis of leptomeningeal diseases (LMD) in non-Hodgkin lymphomas has been suggested in previous studies but needs to be further validated. With this regards, we evaluated the use of FCM for LMD in a series of Korean patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma.FCM and cytomorphology were conducted using samples obtained from clinically suspected LMD patients, follow-up LMD patients, and those with high risk of developing tumorigenic diseases. We then compared results of FCM and cytomorphology. In total, 55 and 47 CSF samples were analyzed by FCM and cytomorphology, respectively.Of the samples analyzed, 25.5% (14/55) and 12.8% (6/47) were positive by FCM and cytomorphology, respectively. No samples were determined as negative by FCM but positive by cytomorphology. Seven patients were positive only by FCM and negative by cytomorphology, and six among them were clinically confirmed to have LMD either by follow-up cytomorphology or imaging study.We observed a high detection rate of tumor cells by FCM compared with cytomorphology. FCM study can be useful in early sensitive detection of LMD.

Bone marrow infiltration pattern in patients with intravascular large B‐cell lymphoma diagnosed by random skin biopsy

Project description:Abstract We retrospectively analyzed bone marrow (BM) infiltration pattern in consecutive 30 intravascular large B‐cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) patients diagnosed by random skin biopsy (RSB). BM infiltration of lymphoma was observed in 18 patients (60.0%), including five patients with the intrasinusoidal pattern with minimal extravasation, eight patients with the mixed of intrasinusoidal and scattered/interstitial or nodular infiltration, and five patients with the nodular/diffuse pattern. Twelve patients were negative for lymphoma infiltration. BM histology of patients with IVLBCL were diverse and frequently discordant with those of other site of IVLBCL lesions. BM biopsy had a poorer diagnostic performance for detecting intravascular features.

Biological Features and Prognostic Impact of Bone Marrow Infiltration in Patients with Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma.

Project description:The biology and clinical impact of bone marrow (BM) infiltration in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remains unclear in the rituximab era. We retrospectively analyzed 232 patients diagnosed with DLBCL at our center between 1999 and 2014. Concordant-presence of large cells similar to those of the lymph node biopsy- and discordant-infiltration by small cells forming lymphoid aggregates, lacking cytological atypia-BM infiltration was defined by histological criteria and further characterized by flow cytometry (FCM). Cell of origin (COO) was determined using Hans' algorithm. For the clonal relationship between tumor and discordant BM, the VDJH rearrangement was analyzed. Survival analyses were restricted to 189 patients treated with rituximab and chemotherapy. Thirty-six (16%) had concordant, and 37 (16%) discordant BM infiltration. FCM described different indolent lymphomas among discordant cases, clonally related with DLBCL in 10/13 available samples. Median follow-up was 58 months. 5-year-progression-free survival (PFS) for non-infiltrated, discordant and concordant groups was 68%, 65% and 30%, respectively (p < 0.001). Combining COO and BM infiltration, patients with discordant BM and non-germinal center B-cell COO also had decreased 5-year-PFS (41.9%). In multivariate analysis, concordant BM had an independent effect on PFS (HR 2.5, p = 0.01). Five-year cumulative incidence of central nervous system (CNS) relapse was 21%, 4% and 1% in concordant, discordant and non-infiltrated groups, respectively (p < 0.001). In conclusion, concordant BM infiltration represents a subset with poor prognosis, whereas the prognostic impact of discordant BM infiltration could be limited to non-CGB cases.

Impact of bone marrow involvement on outcome in relapsed and refractory transplant eligible diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and transformed indolent lymphoma.

Project description:In front-line treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), prior studies suggest that concordant but not discordant involvement of the bone marrow (BM) portends a poor prognosis. The prognostic impact of bone marrow infiltration (BMI) in recurrent or refractory DLBCL (r/rDLBCL) and transformed indolent lymphoma (r/rTRIL) patients is less clear. Thus, we examined the prognostic significance of the infiltration of bone marrow (BMI) by concordant, large B-cells (conBMI) and discordant, small B-cells (disBMI) in this patient group. We performed a single center retrospective analysis of the prognostic impact of BMI diagnosed before start of second-line treatment as well as multiple clinicopathologic variables in 82 patients with r/rDLBCL or r/rTRIL intended to treat with autologous SCT. Twenty-five of 82 patients (30.5%) had BMI. Out of these, 19 (76%) had conBMI and 6 (24%) had disBMI. In patients with conBMI but not disBMI, uni- and multivariate analysis revealed inferior progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared to patients without BMI (median PFS, 9.2 vs 17.45 months, log rank: p = 0.049; Hazard Ratio, 2.34 (Confidence Interval, 1.24-4.44), p = 0.009; median OS 14.72 vs 28.91 months, log rank: p = 0.017; Hazard Ratio, 2.76 (Confidence Interval, 1.43-5.31), p = 0.002). ConBMI was strongly associated with nonGCB subtype as classified by the Hans algorithm (82.4% vs 17.6%, p = 0.01). ConBMI comprised an independent predictor of poor prognosis in primary and secondary r/rDLBCL. Incorporating conBMI in the pretherapeutic risk assessment for r/rDLBCL and r/rTRIL patients may be useful for prognostication, for stratification in clinical trials, and to assess new therapies for this high-risk patient subset that might not benefit from SCT in second-line treatment.
