Abstract Anaplastic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (A-DLBCL) is a rare morphologic variant characterized by the presence of polygonal, bizarre-shaped tumor cells. However, the clinicopathologic and genetic features of this variant are largely unknown. In this study, we investigated 35 cases of A-DLBCL with regard to their clinical, pathologic, and genetic characteristics. The age of the patients ranged from 23 to 89 years (median age, 62 y) with a male to female ratio of 23:12. Twenty-two of 26 (85%) patients had Ann Arbor stage III or IV disease, and 17/26 (65%) patients had a high-intermediate or high International Prognostic Index score. For the 24 patients treated with aggressive chemotherapy regimens, the median overall survival (OS) was 16 months, and the 2-year OS rate was 36%. Immunophenotypically, 30/35 (86%) cases had a non-germinal center B-cell immunophenotype. CD30 expression was present in 18/35 (51%) cases, and the p53 protein stain was positive in 28/35 (80%) cases. Fifteen of 35 (43%) cases expressed both BCL2 and MYC (double expressor). Twenty-nine of 32 (91%) cases tested positive for RELA, RELB, or c-Rel in the nucleus, indicating activation of the NFκB signaling pathway. Cytogenetically, 11/27 (41%) cases had concurrent MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 abnormalities (translocation or extra copy), including 5 cases with triple abnormalities. TP53 mutation was found in 17/30 (57%) cases, whereas the MYD88 L265P, CD79B, and CARD11 mutations were found in 7/35, 4/30, and 5/30 cases, respectively. We compared the A-DLBCL group with 50 patients with DLBCL without anaplastic features (common DLBCL). The OS of patients with A-DLBCL was significantly worse than that of patients with DLBCL without anaplastic features (P=0.004). Cases of A-DLBCL more often had a high International Prognostic Index score and a non-germinal center B-cell immunophenotype, more frequently expressed CD30 and p53, and more often had mutations of TP53 and concurrent abnormalities of MYC and BCL2 and/or BCL6 (P<0.05). In conclusion, A-DLBCL displays clinicopathologic features that distinguish it from ordinary DLBCL. Most patients follow an aggressive clinical course and have a poor outcome. Cases of A-DLBCL have a high frequency of TP53 mutation and genetic abnormalities of MYC, BCL2, and BCL6. 间变型弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤表现出复杂的基因改变和明显的生物学特征 摘要:间变型弥漫大B细胞淋巴瘤(A-DLBCL)是一种罕见的形态学亚型,以多形性、奇异形肿瘤细胞为特征,但其临床病理和基因特征还不很清楚。本研究从临床、病理和基因特征方面研究了35例A-DLBCL。患者的年龄从23岁到89岁(中位年龄62岁),男女比例23:12,22/26(85%)患者Ann Arbor分期是Ⅲ或Ⅳ期,17/26(65%)患者有高分值的国际预后指数(IPI)。其中24个患者进行了激进的化疗方案,中位生存期(OS)是16个月,2年生存期是36%。免疫表型方面,30/35(86%)病例属于non-GCB表型。18/35(51%)病例表达CD30,28/35(80%)p53蛋白是阳性的,15/35(43%)病例表达BCL2和MYC(双表达),29/32(91%)病例检测出RELA,RELB或c-Rel的核阳性,表明存在NFκB信号通路的激活。细胞遗传学方面,11/27(41%)病例同时出现MYC和BCL2/BCL6异常(易位或多拷贝),其中5个病例是三个均异常。17/30(57%)病例发现TP53基因突变,而MYD88 L265P,CD79B和CARD11突变分别出现在7/35,4/30和5/30的病例中。同时将A-DLBCL和50例缺乏间变特征的DLBCL(普通DLBCL)进行比较,A-DLBCL患者明显比普通DLBCL的总生存期更差(P=0.004), A-DLBCL的患者更常出现高分值的IPI指数和non-GCB表型,更高的CD30和p53的表达率,更易出现TP53基因突变和同时发生MYC和BCL2/BCL6异常(P<0.05)。总之,A-DLBCL表现出的临床病理特征应当与普通DLBCL区别,大多数患者表现出侵袭性的临床进展和不良预后,A-DLBCL的病例具有更高TP53突变频率和MYC,BCL2和BCL6基因异常。(翻译 杨丽)
