Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological and molecular genetic characteristics and prognosis of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:The clinicopathological data of 152 DLBCL patients receiving consultation and routine physical examination in Peking University Third Hospital and Peking University School of Basic Medicine from January 2008 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expressions of CD10, bcl-6, MUM1, GCET1, FOXP1. EB virus encoded small RNA (EBV-EBER) was detected by using in situ hybridization. The aberrations of bcl-2, bcl-6 and c-myc genes were detected by using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to screen double-hit lymphoma (DHL). Kaplan-Meier method was used to make survival analysis.Results:Among 152 cases of DLBCL, the ratio of male to female was 1.49:1, the median age of onset was 59 years (7-90 years), and 79 cases (52.0%) were primary lymph nodes. The median overall survival (OS) time of all cases was 16 months (1-101 months). The 1-year, 3-year and 5-year OS rates were 70.2%, 44.7%, 30.3%, respectively. The OS of R-CHOP treatment group was better than that of CHOP treatment group and untreated group ( P = 0.001). Among all 137 patients receiving double-hit histochemistry score (DHS), there were 56 cases with 0 score, 57 cases with 1 score, 24 cases with 2 scores; and the difference in the OS of different DHS score groups ( P = 0.311). FISH detection showed that among 29 cases achieving results of c-myc gene detection, there were 2 cases of splitting gene and 3 cases of gene amplification; among 26 cases achieving results of bcl-2 gene detection, 2 cases had bcl-2 gene amplification; among 26 cases achieving results of bcl-6 gene detection, 2 cases had bcl-6 gene amplification and 3 cases had splitting gene. It was found that myc and bcl-2 genes were amplified simultaneously in 1 case, accompanied with bcl-6 gene splitting, which was called triple-hit lymphoma. In DHS 0-score group, 1 case of double gene abnormality was found, and 1 case of single gene abnormality was found in group 1-score; in group 2-score, 5 cases were single gene abnormality and 1 case was three gene abnormality, so the gene abnormality was inconsistent with the protein expression. Conclusions:The incidence of DHL in DLBCL patients in China is low. The major gene abnormalities are c-myc or bcl-2, bcl-6 single gene abnormalities.
