Distinct clinical characteristics draw a new prognostic model for splenic marginal zone lymphoma in HBV high prevalent region

چکیده
Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a rare indolent B-cell neoplasm with hepatitis virus supposed to involve in the pathogenesis. The characteristics of SMZL derived from Caucasia population and high hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection region have been widely investigated, but few was reported in the Eastern population with HBV prevalent region. We analyzed the clinical characteristics, cytogenetic aberrations and prognostic factors in 160 SMZL patients from China. 25 patients (16%) were HBsAg-positive and 54 (34%) patients with resolved HBV infection. IGH gene usage was analyzed in 39 patients. The preferential usages of IGHV genes were IGHV1-2 (26%), followed by IGHV4-34 (18%) and IGHV2-70 (10%). The patients with HBV infection presented biased IGHV-D-J rearrangements and mutational status. Using three independent factors hemoglobin level, HBsAg positivity and complex karyotype, we developed a new hierarchical prognostic model, which showed a better c-index than the previously reported IIL and HPLL scoring systems in SMZL. In conclusion, SMZL in HBV prevalent region have unique clinical and biological characteristics and new prognostic scoring model should be adopted in this population.

BACKGROUND The marginal zone is an anatomically distinct B-cell compartment of lymphoid tissue with an abundant antigenic influx. Among marginal zone-derived lymphomas the WHO classification listed, in addition to extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of MALT type, two other marginal zone B-cell neoplasms: splenic marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (+/- villous lymphocytes) and nodal marginal zon...

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is an indolent lymphoma with long median survival. Many studies have been performed to build up prognostic scores potentially useful to identify patients with poorer outcome. In 2004, an international consortium coordinated by the International Follicular Lymphoma Prognostic Factor project was established and a new prognostic study was launched (FLIPI2) using progressio...

Marginal zone lymphomas are indolent B-cell lymphomas that originate from the marginal zone of B-cell follicles. For several subtypes, the initiation of disease appears to be a consequence of chronic infection and/ or inflammation. While the initial lymphoid hyperplasia is driven by physiologic antigenic stimulation, additional oncogenic events, such as chromosomal translocations leading to con...
